The beloved Wrigleyville tavern Nisei Lounge became the most recent target in a series of bar and restaurant break-ins after a person removed a window and ransacked the bar early on Friday morning, tavern management said.
The bar, an iconic hangout for Cubs fans at 3439 N. Sheffield Ave., has started keeping less cash on hand and leaving its cash registers open in what Odon said was a response to a string of restaurant and bar burglaries throughout the summer.A bar near Odon’s home was robbed last week in the early morning hours, he said. Earlier this month, a string of break-ins, including one at an open establishment, made the rounds on group messages among bartenders and bar managers.
Bartender Val Capone said she closed up Thursday evening, putting bar stools on the tables by the window as she’d done for years and leaving cash registers out and empty to deter trouble.“I actually closed a little early because I felt unsafe because there have been so many things,” she said. “We’d heard about other bars in the neighborhood getting smash-and-grabs.”“I don’t like being right,” she said. “It’s such an unnerving feeling. It’s like my house got broken into.
Bar staff had already slashed the amount of cash on hand by two-thirds, Odon said. Now they will likely reduce it even more.
