The Best Zoos and Aquariums for Chicago Kids
"Lincoln Park, Chicago—15 minutes from The Loop Lincoln Park Zoo is one of just a handful of free zoos left in America. Founded in 1868, it is home to more than 1,100 animals of about 200 species. One of the most popular exhibits (and my personal favorite) is the Regenstein Center for African Apes, which allows visitors to see gorillas and chimpanzees up close and personal—sometimes they're sitting just inches away on the other side of the glass."

"Lincoln Park Zoo is a renowned 35-acre zoo in Lincoln Park and a hotspot for tourists. It’s the zoo’s pavilion, designed to provide shelter for open-air on-site classes, that offers such a fantastically picturesque snap. With the design drawing inspiration from the appearance of a tortoise’s shell, the stunning curved wooden pavilion elegantly frames the Chicago skyline."

The 11 Best Spots for Ice Cream Around Chicago
"Decisions can be difficult when constructing your perfect ice cream cake. Choose from 10 different ice cream flavors, all made with organic milk and cream, and decide if you prefer crumbled brownies, blondies, or cookies as a base. Rachel Kamins launched Bartleby’s in 2018 after working for Ben & Jerry’s and Zingerman’s Bakehouse and calls herself the “caker, baker, and ice cream maker.” Fittingly, she makes everything, from the ice cream to the crushed cookies and brownies to all her sauces, from scratch."

14 Chicago Bars Where You Can Dance - Chicago
"Missy Elliot once said, "If you a fly gal, get your nails done, get a pedicure, get your hair did." And if she knew you could do that at a bar, we’re pretty sure she’d be all in. So go to Beauty Bar, where you can get your nails done in front, literally, grab a drink, and hit the dance floor in the back room. It gets crowded on the weekend but that’s part of the fun."

Dance, Music and Comedy Clubs Among the Best in Chicago Nightlife
"This dance club that also serves as a boozy salon is a great place for a manicure, martini, and dance party. The kitschy 60s decor includes glittery walls and salon furniture that would set your mom's heart (and hair) aflutter. Martinis & Manicures take place Wednesday-Sunday until roughly about midnight and reservations are not required."

12 of the Best Breweries in Chicago & Chicagoland
"Situated right across the street from Dovetail, visit Begyle to switch it up after getting your fill of lagers — this is the opposite end of the beer spectrum. For the time being, they have a reservation system for their beer garden that’s quite typical of Chicago breweries at the moment. Begyle’s brews range from blondes to barrel aged stouts and everything in between."

"A neighbourhood bar where lots of locals chill out with a good brew and good friends. This is a smaller, no-frills place where you can drink good, artisanal beer. I recommend Begyle Brewing Co. because you’re likely to avoid the worst of any tourist crowd and get a chance to rub elbows with locals."

Chicago’s Top Wine Bars
"When three former Webster’s Wine Bar employees decided to open their own wine bar in Humboldt Park back in 2009, the area gained both a neighborhood hangout and an oenophile destination. Credit that to showcasing wine growers from around the world with a variety of specialties, including terroir-focused, organic, and biodynamic pours. The food only helps and nearly all of the plates rotate on the regular."

"Rootstock in Humboldt Park has been on the cutting edge for wine in Chicago, providing a unique and intimate atmosphere. No matter if you’re craving a natural wine, Austrian, or something with bubbles, this space is great for dates and get togethers. It’s also got an underrated burger."
