Bucktown is one of Chicago’s most vibrant, eclectic neighborhoods—tree-lined streets, classic worker’s cottages beside sleek new builds, and a lively mix of restaurants, cafés, indie boutiques, and art spaces. With The 606 skimming its southern edge and quick access to downtown, Bucktown blends neighborhood warmth with urban convenience.
By day: indie coffee, boutique shopping, and strolls along The 606. By night: craft cocktails, destination dining, and intimate music venues. Bucktown’s creative spirit shows up everywhere—from storefront galleries to chef-driven kitchens.
Bucktown’s name traces to its 19th-century Polish roots (families raised goats—“bucks”). Over time, artists and entrepreneurs transformed former industrial blocks into studios, lofts, and beloved gathering spots—growth that still respects the neighborhood’s historic bones.
