On February 2, 2022, the proprietors of the tavern devoted an entire day to offering the finest food and beer for the low price of $2.22.

The background of 2Twenty2 Day

February in Chicago is relatively unremarkable. There is no sign of spring, the streets are deserted, and there are no public holidays to celebrate. Visiting your favourite bar with your friends and family is a wonderful way to alleviate the gloomy and monotonous month.

Chicago is a city of skyscrapers, jazz, and one of the finest dining experiences in the United States. It is also home to some of the best bars in the country. 2Twenty2 Tavern is one of the over a thousand bars that operate and thrive in the city; it is also one of the most popular. This bar is a Chicagoan cult classic because it was founded on family values, service, and positive energy. In 2022, the owners decided to create a special occasion by designating February 22 as 2Twenty2 Day.

The day honours the bar and its founding principles of providing service to the public. With “Beers Bourbons Bands” as its official motto, 2Twenty2 is a trendy, up-and-coming bar located in the heart of Chicago. As people end their long days within its walls, the atmosphere is always electrified by the city’s pulsating nightlife. The menu features the finest bottled beers, handcrafted cocktails, and whisky aged for six years. On February 22, the tavern welcomes patrons from all walks of life to spend the day playing shuffleboard and video games, while enjoying live sports broadcasts, a special drinks menu, and the city’s best tacos.
