1st visit to Chigago - Best area to stay ? Things to See ? Must Do ? |
Travel Info Two mid life crisis females from UK Manchester, visiting Chicago for first time, as last stop of US Tour. Mid -May 07. Tips on mature night life, good places to stay/eat/see please Travel Tips LOL.. liked your description... I supposed Michigan Ave. would be a good place to stay. It can be a bit pricey, though. There are a few hotels in areas like Lincoln Park, Old Town area, etc. Do a search for hotels in these areas. They might be a little cheaper than Michigan Ave. Mature night life, huh? Well, try Second City Comedy club, Green Mill Jazz club, Green Dolphin Street jazz club, Jilly's or The Red Head Piano Bar, Sangria (a Spanish bar and restaurant), the Signature bar and restaurant at the top of the John Hancock Building, the bar in the Four Seasons Hotel, Davenport Piano bar and Cabaret, Fly Me To The Moon, Gibson's bar and Steakhouse, etc.etc. etc.... really too much to name. If you want to get a little silly with your friend, there are these bars with girl-friendly nights (http://metromix.chicagotribune.com/barsa... As far as restaurants, pick one. There are so many great ones around it's hard to narrow it down to a few. Things to see? Well, other than the usual tourist stuff (Millenium Park, Art Institute, Field Museum, Navy Pier, etc., I'd suggest Water Tower Place, Greek town (lots of great Greek restaurants), the Wells Street/Old Town area (bars and restaurants, shopping, etc.), Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago History Museum, lots of storefront and big stage theaters (Goodman, Steppenwolf, etc. - you can also buy halfprice tickets to theaters the day of the show)... there may even bee a few city-sponsored street fairs going on around town. Check out Time Out Chicago or the Chicago Reader to see what's going on that day. have fun.... Others Check out this website. It offers half priced tickets for many different things to do in Chicago. https://www.goldstarevents.com/join?p=f3... |
