Food scene

You can’t go wrong here. Great food and laid back cozy vibe. Awesome brunch and also kid friendly. Bonus; huge sidewalk patio when it’s nice out. I love their bruschetta, soprano pizza (spicy), wrightwood salad, rigatoni, and the cookie skillet... so basically everything. Oh, their Bloody Mary at brunch is perfect.

Craft Beer Shop

I’m lucky to live by this spot! Probably has one of Chicago’s largest selection of craft beer. They have a lively bar and their food is elevated bar food.
