A great place for a stroll. Lincoln Park and the Lincoln Park Zoo have so much to offer, with the city skyline as your backdrop. Brian and I especially like the area near the south pond. Check out the honeycomb structure where we got engaged!

The OG of Chicago popcorn.

Two words. Cheese + Carmel.

Great rooftop bar overlooking the lake and the city. Close to St. Michaels Church.

Consistently voted some of the best donuts in Chicago. I do-nut know how you could go wrong.

Nearly 19 miles of trails on the coast of Lake Michigan. Bikers, walkers, and joggers abound, this is a great way to escape from the city streets and enjoy the views.

The menu really only has two things on it. Burgers and fries. But this place hits the spot. A late night (or Sunday afternoon) favorite of Brian and Alexa's.
