For months, we've been hearing news about a Chicago location of SafeHouse, the famous Milwaukee spy-themed bar that has been around for half a century, but there was never an opening date. Now there is one: Today.

SafeHouse Chicago is located at (or below) 60 E. Ontario Street, and, just like the Milwaukee location, will involve plenty of fun, tricks and gimmicks. Secret doors, spy memorabilia, magic and more will be everywhere. From a statement released today:

"Visiting spies will be tasked with locating the top-secret entrance marked only with a sign for International Exports Ltd. flanked by a gaslight and an iconic red door. Before entering, operatives will be required to provide the password or perform a top-secret clearance test to gain entry to this newest refuge for spies from around the world. Once inside, operatives will embark on a one-of-a-kind mission as they create their own agent name and complete missions while discovering gadgets and uncovering hidden secrets."

They've also got a ton of interesting artifacts, including part of the flight deck of a spyplane and a chunk of the Berlin Wall. The complete menu is below.

Is it a little bit cheesy? Totally, but we still can't wait to go.
