Things to Do
City Wine Garden by City Winery
Outdoor seating in the heart of downtown, great for cocktails and appetizers. We celebrated at City Winery after our engagement!
Bar Cargo
Roman style pizza - reservations encouraged, but not required.
Barrio
Creative mexican fare with great cocktails - reservations required.
Jefferson Tap & Grille
One of our favorite bars in the River North neighborhood!
Wendella Architecture Tours
The architecture tours are AMAZING! We have been on over a dozen tours and have learned something new each time. It is a great way to learn about Chicago architecture and Chicago history, while taking in great views of the city from a different vantage point. Bonus - they serve drinks on the boat! Also, Wandella is just one of many companies that offer tours, so be sure to check out the other companies if Wandella is sold out.
The Second City
Sketch & Improv comedy, guaranteed to be hilarious!
Lakefront Trail
The Lakefront Trail is an 18 mile walking, running, and biking trail with incredible views of the city. If you're feeling a beach day, the trail is lined with beautiful public beaches and a few bars and restaurants.
Lincoln Park Zoo
Visiting the Lincoln Park Zoo is a fun way to spend the afternoon and a great way to visit one of Chicago’s most beautiful neighborhoods, Lincoln Park! An added bonus, it’s free - Lincoln Park Zoo is one of the only free admission zoos in the country. (Although we do recommend making a donation!) Our first apartment was across the street from the zoo at The Belden Stratford! There is a great French restaurant in the lobby, Mon Ami Gabi, if you’re looking for dinner in the neighborhood.
