Fred and Cristine came here on their third date. They fell in love with this two-screen theatre, its lounge, and its film inspired cocktails. Now they are members (thanks to the ever thoughtful Hogan Reed!) Enjoy an art-house film and think of us!
This beach on the northern end of the lake is one of our favorites. We ended our first date with a jaunt through the bird sanctuary. In the summers we love beach picnics and Can Jam. Concessions run the gamut with everything from Chicago dogs to Lavazza espresso. We hope you packed sunscreen!
Beautiful in every season but especially summer is this 18 mile trail. Bidirectional lanes are clearly marked for bikes or pedestrians. Rentable "Divvy" bikes are available at regular intervals. Whether you're aiming to exercise or post up on the sand, this is a great excursion. You'll catch several great views of the skyline!
Chicago's oldest jazz club! This spot is cash only. They will not make you a mojito or anything else with mint, but they will serve you amazing cocktails and play fabulous music. If you plan to be in town on a Thursday night, you can go swing dancing here!
