Three Dots and a Dash is a cocktail focused tiki lounge that is unique to current day Chicago. The menu features a craft approach to both classic and modern tiki cocktails with fresh juices and syrups made in house daily and a selection of over 150 distinctive rums. The name Three Dots and a Dash is Morse Code for “V” standing for Victory. This code was used at the end of World War II when the soldiers were heading home. To commemorate the victory, Don the Beachcomber created a drink called “Three Dots and a Dash” consisting of rum, honey, allspice and bitters.
