Shoreline Sightseeing
We highly recommend the Architecture Tour, it's our favorite thing to do with first-time guests. A great way to see downtown from the Chicago River!
Montrose Beach
Take a break from summer heat, pack a sandwich and book, and head to Montrose for an afternoon.
KOVAL Tasting Room
We are Gin girls, this is our favorite distillery in Chicago. Robin gets the Bees Knees, Michelle the Negroni. Excellent outdoor patio and lots of fun cocktails! If you want to take a tour, you can book one online.
Breweries
Ravenswood: Dovetail, Begyle, Demo- all within walking distance and near Koval tasting room for a night cap! Honorable mentions that can be harder to get to: Off Color Brewing, Burning Bush, and Revolution Brewing.
Wrigley Field
Ready to catch a ball like Michelle did? Celebrate an American pastime, enjoy a hot dog and a beer to watch the north-side team, the Chicago Cubs. Chicago plays Cleveland, our two USA homes July 1st-3rd, then a divisional matchup, Cubs vs Cardinals July, 4th-6th.
Food! Anywhere!!
Chicago has an amazing food scene! Some of our favorite places include - Chinatown for a self-guided dumpling tour, Caro Mio Italian Restaurant for some of the best mom-and-pop Italian food, and Nandos for our non-Zimbabweans for some fast-casual fare.
