Delilah’s
Whiskey drinking has always been an anonymous hang-your-head-and-drown-your-sorrows-in-a-dingy-back-alley-bar kind of business, and there’s no dingier spot to wallow in a moment of liquid suicide than Mike Miller’s old-punk rock cave in Lakeview. $3 Makers Mark on Fridays, DJ sets featuring The Smiths and a chance to sip bourbon from a deep selection of new and defunct distilleries is more than enough to push you over the edge if each great sip didn’t redeem your faith in existence.
