Redeye Chicago: "Queen Mary has recently opened their outdoor patio seating. The bar’s classy cocktails are fit for spring with ingredients like passion fruit-ginger syrup, peach bitters and jalapeño tincture."
Jackie Mann: "The free events here in the summer are awesome, although trying to enjoy the park otherwise can be hard during tourist season. The beat time is fall or spring early in the morning- no one's there!"
Mike: "A classic Chicago establishment and a great place to catch a show. Reasonably priced ($7-$8) beers to boot, given the venue. Chick-fil-A is next door in case you need a pre-show snack."
Chicagoist: "Try the sauerkraut rye bread, their chocolate cake doughnuts, buttermilk poundcake and "grandpa rye" bread, a three-pound loaf swimming in caraway and perfectly suited for Dagwood sandwiches."
Dana Jensen: "Good tap list in the "tasting room" and a truly outrageous selection of wine and beer. Spirits are weirdly organized, but employees are very helpful if you can't find anything"
Chicagoist: "The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s home is one of the most acoustically perfect venues in town and sounds pitch-perfect across a range of musical styles."
Dmitry Witman: "Outstandin orchestra and director, off-course. Great jazz program as well, infrequent jazz concerts though. Yet if you are lucky with the time of your visit - they are really good."
Aaron Cruz: "Right in the heart of the city. A must walk day or night. Lot's of greenery, great views of Lake Michigan and the city. Special events going on all the time. Buckingham Fountain sits within."
✞CONSTANTINE ✞: "Grant Park has the Buckingham Palace in the center as its focal point and a park that is used for the famous Lollapalooza. Buckingham Fountain is beyond gorgeous, especially at night..."
James Anthony: "This little tucked- away bookstore is one of my favorite places. I've spent hours inside. great for finding rare classics as well as new fiction & non-fiction. Plus, it's just so damn charming!"
Matt Adorjan: "Almost any book you could want, they have, whether new or old. The employees are awesomely helpful. One of the best bookstores I've been to"
