Savor French Classics Infused With Midwestern Flair at This West Loop Bistro

"Start with the warm Brie gougères, puffy, buttery pastry balls filled with creamy cheese and coated with honey, resulting in complementary sweet and savory flavors. Parisian gnocchi arrives under a layer of crisp brik pastry. The pillowy dumplings are smothered in melted Swiss cheese, ham, and egg yolk - reminiscent of a croque-madame. It's a rich and satisfying dish to share."

"Bistro staple roast chicken is served with a sauce built from chicken liver and wine, which gives the dish depth. The bird's skin is well-rendered while every piece of meat is juicy and tender. Order a side of fries, cooked in clarified butter, to sop up the sauce. Though Creepies offers alcohol, it lacks a dedicated bar area. Solo diners may find the counter seating slightly awkward as it faces a mirrored wall, forcing them to look at their own reflection during a meal."

"From the team behind Michelin-starred Elske, Creepies is a West Loop bistro delivering seasonal, Midwestern-influenced fare in a cozy and charming space. Chef David Posey and chef de cuisine Tayler Ploshehanski handle savory small plates and mains, turning out dishes like roasted chicken with liver and wine sauce; Parisian gnocchi; tarte flambee; and more. Anna Posey's inventive desserts shine alongside an approachable French-heavy wine list and batch cocktails. The full package earned the restaurant a Michelin Guide recommendatio"

Creepies is a West Loop neo-bistro offering seasonal, Midwestern-influenced dishes executed with French technique.

Menu highlights include warm Brie gougères; Parisian gnocchi under crisp brik with Swiss cheese, ham, and egg yolk; and roast chicken finished with a chicken-liver-and-wine sauce. Anna Posey’s inventive desserts pair with an approachable French-heavy wine list and batch cocktails. The space is cozy and charming but lacks a dedicated bar, and street parking is scarce, so rideshare or nearby CTA service is advisable.
