Exploring Chicago

Chicago’s real charm is found in its neighborhoods (there are over 200!). Each has its own character and scene. If you’re feeling adventurous, jump on the Brown Line and head up to the Southport Corridor. It's one of our go-to spots for great food, drinks, and shopping, and it's where many of our favorite memories together were made.

TO EAT & DRINK

OUR FAVS

The home of Chloe and Matt's second date, and still one of our favorite Italian restaurants in the city.

Home to what we believe is one the best chicken caesar wraps in Chicago.

A cozy sushi spot with incredible flavors. Be sure to order the Lychee Martini and the Momo Jr. Hand Roll

Don't leave without trying the burger! Corridor is the sister restaurant to DryHop Brewery where Chloe and Matt had their first date. 

If you stop by DryHop, order a Shark Meets Hipster IPA—the beer we toasted with on that very first date.

If you’re a super fan of The Bear and looking for some classic Chicago favorites, you can't go wrong with:

A legendary late-night Chicago-style hot dog institution.

The Italian beef restaurant that The Bear is actually filmed in. 

Famous for Chicago-style hot dogs and Italian beef sandwiches.

The deep dish pizza even Chicago locals swear by. Worth the wait!

Staying near the hotel?
A couple of nearby favorites include:

Great for elevated American fare and cocktails.

In the hotel and one of the best rooftop views in Chicago. You’ll want to grab a cocktail here. 

A unique one, but go grab some falafel at The Oasis Cafe in the back of the Wabash Jewelry on Chicago’s Jeweler’s Row. 

Enjoy a diner breakfast inside the atrium of another historic Chicago building.

THINGS TO DO

SIGHTSEEING & ACTIVITIES

This premier art museum sits directly across from the hotel.

These iconic spaces are the perfect way to spend a winter afternoon and offer some of the best views of the Chicago skyline.

Check out the Golf simulator in the hotel or head over to Flight Club to throw some darts.

FEELING COMPETITIVE?

Millennium Park is across the street. Go check out the famous Bean sculpture or walk around “Chicago’s Front Yard” for great city and lake views.
