It welcomes all types of artists and guests and hosts live music, storytelling, poetry readings, and more. The menu includes tacos, sandwiches, and drink specials inspired by black musical icons like Say It Loud (James Brown), Mississippi Goddamn (Nina Simone), and The Belafonte. The interior includes a full-service smoothie bar, and there\u2019s a weather-permitting outdoor seating area in front. Some Like It Black Creative Arts Bar is a must-visit when it comes to Bronzeville\u2019s nightlife.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner hide_bg_image_on_tablet=”” hide_bg_image_on_mobile=”” css=”.vc_custom_1557330581273{padding-top: 5% !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”235181″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”235182″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ icons_position=”left”][vc_single_image image=”235183″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ icons_position=”left”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ icons_position=”left”][vc_raw_html]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_custom_heading text=”Check It Out” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1557330626008{border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-color: #0094c3 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 1px !important;}”][vc_column_text]Address:<\/strong>
