The Rooftop has great views, a variety of grilled German sausages, and great beer. A bit of a hidden spot that is perfect on a beautiful day. Great place to find German and other European beers, wines, and liquors. Extensive selection of meats with a focus on outstanding sausage. If you want something delicious and quick to take home, grab one of their rotisserie chickens because they are out of this world.

Great Thai restaurant that is open late! Definitely ask for their menu in Thai - it has items that aren't on the regular menu such as the absolutely delicious baby clams. BYOB and there is a liquor store across the street on Lawrence.

This place cannot be beat for an upscale evening. Being the first Michelin starred brewpub, it is likely no surprise that it is the most upscale brewery in Chicago with botanical and cuisine inspired brews. It has an inventive and eclectic menu that begs to be explored.

A CIDER BAR! This place is amazing and it easily gets addictive trying their ciders. Who knew cider came in so many variations from different styles and countries. Also, definitely recommend their mussels and pasties if you're hungry. Delicious!

Best place for mussels and beer in Chicago and likely the US. The amount of beers they have on tap is staggering and they also have wine on tap. And, of course, their mussels are out of this world.
