Drinks

Best cocktails in Chicago in a swanky speakeasy setting. Parties are seated by a host at tables or the bar, this is not your average crowded bar! Expect a wait after 7 but it’s worth it.

Amazing pastries and Pilipino food for breakfast and lunch. The black truffle croissant is a personal favorite. This place was featured on The Bear. Go early and expect a line outside the door! Note that it is also open for dinner but you need a reservation well in advance.
