As far as Outfit hangouts & activity within city limits are concerned, the Patch is nothing when stacked up against the Bridgeport area. The Patch is just well known because of proximity to yuppie neighborhoods & Richard's. Bridgeport/Armour Square still have actual street action. The Chinatown casinos & general nature of that neighborhood have kept it in tact. Lots of "members only" signs & shady stuff happening throughout that area at all times. Taylor Street is a billboard.

Outside city limits, as Nicky mentioned, Elmwood park is ripe with social clubs. That's the Mecca & the real "little Italy" of Chicago. Melrose, Berwyn, Westchester, Addison, Lombard, Bloomingdale, oak park all have Outfit hangouts & gathering clubs.
