Best Bar in Elmhurst

Lo Key is the kind of upscale bar that gets everything right—stylish, modern, elegant and genuinely welcoming. The drinks are expertly crafted, the food is outstanding with the shrimp appetizer being absolutely a must try! Although the place was packed on a Friday evening, we were seated and served promptly. Our server was very polite and caring. We will definitely be back.

I had a great time at Lo Key. The bartender Mary and Peggy were really helpful and took the time to recommend drinks based on what I like, which I appreciated. They ended up making me an Old Fashioned that was easily one of the best I’ve had. I also celebrated my birthday there and they brought out sparklers, which was such a nice surprise. It made the whole night feel a lot more special. I’m really glad Elmhurst has a place where you can get cocktails like this. Definitely a spot I’ll be…

This place is amazing, I can’t say enough about the staff, atmosphere, and THE FOOD is amazing! I did not expect this kind of food at a little speakeasy! 100% would recommend. Oh and the GM Ashley is literally the heart and soul of the whole place so ask for her if you want the best experience!

First time here for a date night and it was so magical and beautiful. The drinks were awesome, the server was great & we were so lucky to sit next to the owner of the bar who ended up buying us a drink and chatting with us. So kind and generous, our time here was nothing but amazing & we cannot wait to be back!

Checked out Lo Key in Elmhurst last night—and the vibe is anything but “low key”. This elevated, hidden cocktail lounge opened just a few months ago and already feels like a neighborhood favorite. Chic, cozy, perfectly designed, with creative cocktails, great bites, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. If you haven’t been yet, put it on your list.
