Mesler offers great food and even better drinks. There is a bar with TVs if you want to sit and watch a game. There is also an outdoor patio. It is located right on 53rd Street which makes it easy to take a stroll down the street and peruse local stores/shops or listen to an artist playing live music on the street. Best of all they do accept reservations which are usually available daily.

Another great place that is in Bronzeville and great for brunch. Parking can be a little bit of a challenge especially on the weekends so I would recommend grabbing and uber. Its worth it!

One of the best things Chicago has to offer are its museums! A few are located super close to The Penthouse including the Museum of Science and Industry, DuSable Museum of African American History, as well as Adler Planetarium and the Field Museum. As exhibits change often, I encourage you to check what's available during your stay!

outdoor fun
Oakwood Beach is actually one of Chicago's newer beaches! Its a 15 min walk and 5 min drive. Swimming is allowed from 11am -7 pm while a life guard is present. If you're not into swimming in Lake Michigan, there's ample trails for biking or running along the lake. There are also a number of events especially during the warmer months that are great to check out!
