We've gone here a few times after work, a nice crowd forms, we drink beer, have some appetizers. In the summer the rooftop bar is open and that is great, to sit outside in the middle of chicago. Food is pretty good and portions are fairly big. Nothing about it really stands out but its not a bad place either, a good standby.

Lincoln Park Outdoor Zoo
Kids love this zoo because it is all outside. They have all the major zoo animals, the polar bear, tigers, and zebras are favorites. There is also a farm area that shows kids how cows are milked! ...
Kids love this zoo because it is all outside. They have all the major zoo animals, the polar bear, tigers, and zebras are favorites. There is also a farm area that shows kids how cows are milked! And of course they have a petting zoo. They also have a big merry go round where you can ride pretend animals!

fun place to visit with young kids
Its a bit of a storybook, its a bit of a zoo, and they have deer. It certainly doesn't compare with Cedar Point, but it is close by, and is fun for the little ones-maybe up to age 6 or 7 would really...
Its a bit of a storybook, its a bit of a zoo, and they have deer. It certainly doesn't compare with Cedar Point, but it is close by, and is fun for the little ones-maybe up to age 6 or 7 would really enjoy it. School groups usually visit-you'll see the buses in the parking lot. Relaxing and nice.

This pet shop seems to be squeezed into 2 rooms, but they have lots of fish to choose from: small animals like rabbits, iguanas, ferrets, mice, and some kitties. And a room with accessories, like dog dishes and leashes and pet toys. Typically the owner's pets are roaming around too. Very nice local pet shop.

This gallery has photos of nature-both animals and plants-fields, streams, mountains. The photos are just gorgeous. They are large and they seem so real, like you could step right into them. They are expensive, but they would be worth it. You have to go, just to look at the amazing photos.

It may seem like a cult when you see all those red shopping bags streaming from the American Girl Place in Chicago, and I had my concerns...but neice got one of the historic dolls over a year ago and she and the family just love it. The doll is high quality, the historic dolls come with a story and teach girls confidence, and the outfits and furniture are FUN. I think the mom's aunt's and grandma's love this place more than the girls...

Went here for a christmas concert, it was wonderful. The space is great, we were up at the top, but could still see GREAT and hear GREAT. Tickets are relatively cheap too. I highly recommend this place for listening to great music and supporting the music school. Browse their webpage to see if there are any classes you'd like to take!

I'm not a beer drinker, but my boss is. He grew up in Belgium, and swears it has the best beer in the world. HE LOVES THE HOPLEAF. They've got the beer selection, they've got good food, and they've got the dark wood atmosphere going of a real good pub. I would highly recommend this place!

For some reason because of the name we thought this was a sushi bar, but it's not. They do have a lot of excellent fish entrees, and a great Blackened Chicken. They also have live music on the weekends, prices are about $30. I'm not a fish lover, but if you are, you should check it out. Located near Wrigley and the Metro.

We stayed in a room with a 2 person jacuzzi (it was pretty small). There was an outdoor pool, basketball court, and a nice walk to the beach. The sunsets here are gorgeous, and you can also walk to a few restaurants/bars. We had a fridge in the room. Overall, a very nice, relaxing, romantic place to stay!
