Best Of Chicago
Hey everyone! We just got back from a weekend trip to Chicago (Friday - Sunday) and I wanted to round up what we did, saw and where we ate & stayed! :)
Where To Stay
Aloft River North (This is where we stayed and I would definitely recommend! The staff is so friendly and the hotel has a restaurant, bar, and a gaming area that includes pool and board games. We also were able to get early check in (10 am) without hassle or any extra charge which is almost unheard of!)
Where To Eat
Something to keep in mind is if you’re visiting on the weekend, almost all dinner plans will require a reservation. The Chicago nightlife is very alive and places get very busy on the weekends. The good news, though, is that there are so many different options to choose from!
Breakfast/Brunch
Eggy’s Diner
Yolk
Bryan Mwar Breakfast Club
Lunch OR Dinner
Giordano’s
The Smith
Barrio
Havana Grill
What To See
My suggestion would be to see the typical touristy spots such as Millennium Park, the Riverwalk, Chinatown, and the Willis Tower.
What To Do
TILT Thrill Ride (This allows you to also get a sky high view of the city!)
Shedd Aquarium
Art Institute Of Chicago
Boat Tour
Lincoln Park Zoo
Some additional options for things to do & food that were on our list, but we did not get a chance to check them out:
Navy Pier
Botanical Gardens
Hamper Camper (Bar / Drinks)
The Hampton Social (Drinks)
Jojo’s Shake Bar
