Question
What can we do in the area for fun?
Answer
There are a lot of nice places for nature walks around Glenview! Our top pics are the Grove, the Beck Lake trails, and the Chicago Botanic Gardens. Take a leap back in time by visiting Wagner Farm. For bowling, bocce, and good food, head to Pinstripes. We also recommend spending some time in Chicago! Our favorite museums are the Art Institute of Chicago, Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Field Museum. If you like animals, we recommend the Shedd Aquarium and Lincoln Park Zoo (free!). For classic Chicago sites, check out Millennium Park (home to the famous "Bean"), walk on the Willis Tower Skydeck, or take a ride on the ferris wheel in Navy Pier.
Question
Any food recommendations?
Answer
In Glenview, some favorites are: Dairy Bar (classic family-owned soft-serve ice cream stand), Riobamba Latin Kitchen (delicious traditional Latin American fare), Egg Harbor Cafe (warm, family-friendly cafe), Walker Bros (longtime local old-school breakfast spot), Hackney's on Harms (long-running local chain serving burgers and more), Glenview House (locally sourced American gastropub fare), and Kong Dog (addictive speciality Korean corndogs). Also a ton of great food options in Chicago! We recommend trying a classic Chicago-style hot dog (no ketchup allowed!).
