Things To Do
Chicago River Boat Architecture Tours
Highly recommend! Chicago's architecture boat tours are one of the best ways to see and learn about the city! We recommend tours through either Wendella or the Chicago Architecture Center (CAC). Note - we are planning to do the CAC sunset tour on Sat 9/6 at 6:30pm. Feel free to book tickets and join if interested!
Green City Market (Lincoln Park)
Skye's favorite place in the city (open Saturdays 7am - 1pm). We recommend grabbing some food at the farmer's market and then walking around Lincoln Park /North Avenue Beach.
The 606 Bloomingdale Trail Bridge
An elevated pathway that cuts across the west side of the city. A great way to get see Bucktown and the southern part of Logan Square. Importantly, near a lot of great restaurants!
Small Cheval
Small Cheval is a fast-casual version of Au Cheval (famous for having the best burger in Chicago + a long wait). They have multiple locations throughout the city, and it's a great spot to get a burger and a shake (or beer).
Bungalow by Middle Brow
Great place for pizza, beer and wine!
Mott street
Asian-fusion spot with a great patio!
Wrigley Field
Chicago Cubs vs. Washington Nationals Home Games on 9/3, 9/5, 9/6, and 9/7
Lou Malnati's Pizzeria
Famous for their deep dish pizza - this is Fred's favorite pizza in the city (although he prefers their thin crust)! They have many locations throughout Chicago.
