Iconic building, beautiful venue. Recommend the basement bar the Punch House. Happy hour from 6-7pm will get you items from the Michelin star rated menu at Dusek's for cheap, and their delicious $5 punches.

The Athletic Association is a great stop when you're downtown seeing the sights and are looking for somewhere to take a load off. There are actually five bars / restaurants in the athletic association, including the hotel lobby on the second floor with cozy fireplaces, or the rooftop bar at Cindy's with great views of the lake. It's a go-to spot for us downtown, whether we need somewhere to work and get a coffee, a fun bar to hangout with friends, or a really special cocktail. Recommend!

The Plant is a really interesting place; they've converted an old pork processing plant into a hub for local food businesses all working to be zero waste. There's a farmers market, hydroponics in the basement, a roof garden, and whiner brewery is a great spot for a drink. Check the website for tours and hours if your'e interested in exploring one of the innovative ways folks are looking to revitalize Chicago's communities and industry.
