Opening date updated on July 13: The restaurant group behind Trenchermen, Sportsman's Club and Revel Room is opening a new "all-day bar" in Logan Square: Estereo, slated to open at 11 a.m. on July 18 at 2450 N. Milwaukee Ave., at the corner of Sacramento and Milwaukee. The Latin American space will serve cocktails and Dark Matter coffee starting at 11 a.m. daily, a Heisler Hospitality spokesperson said.

The cocktails, created by Big Star alum Ben Fasman and Violet Hour alum Michael Rubel, will be the main attraction, emphasizing Latin American spirits: tequila, mezcal, pisco, cachaca and more. Though the drink menu will change often, Heisler's statement specifically mentioned "The Breezy," a highball that pairs a choice of spirit with Yerba Mate (a South American tea with superfood properties), Falernum (a tropical sweetener), soda and lime.

As they drink at the triangular bar, patrons can also snack on sweet and savory house-made eats and listen to Caribbean and Latin tunes curated by Fasman and Rubel. (All the music is on vinyl, obviously.) As for the design: expect bright tiles, light wood, and a perimeter lined with seven garage doors, which staffers can open at their discretion for extra breezes.
