Things To Do

We love Chicago. Here are a few recs to get to know our neighborhood (Logan Square) and recreate some of our favorite dates.

Recreate our Proposal on the 606

1805 North Ridgeway Avenue, Chicago, IL 60647

Take a walk on the 606, the elevated train tracks-turned-walking trail where Warren proposed to Tanner. Stop by 7/11 for Big Gulps before if you want to commit to the bit.

Visit the Otters at the Shedd Aquarium

1200 South DuSable Lake Shore Drive, Chicago, IL 60605

Say hi to Luna, Ellie and Seldovia (the newest baby otter) at one of our favorite date spots.

Try Daisies, Our Favorite Logan Square Dinner Spot

2375 North Milwaukee Avenue, Chicago, IL 60647

Head to our favorite spot in the neighborhood, Daisies (and make sure you try the pappardelle with mushroom ragu).

Grab Brunch at Lula Cafe

2537 North Kedzie Boulevard, Chicago, IL 60647

An iconic Logan Square spot with a Michelin Star. Try the quinoa and farro bowl (believe us). Browse City Lit Books while you wait for your table (it's worth it.)

Stop by the Lincoln Park Conservatory

2430 North Cannon Drive, Chicago, IL 60614

Take a walk along the lake and then head to the conservatory and the zoo.
