Top Outdoor Patio. What they say is true: the after work 20-something crowd does mean a packed patio with difficulty finding seats past 5 pm. Regardless, the atmosphere is fun and relaxing mid-day. Try their specialty drink menu. If you like southern sweet tea you will love their “Suite Tea”. Also, great for munchies, their Rueben sliders were a standout. A great place to people watch and get some sun, as well as watch your favorite Chicago sports team on one of the flat screens lining the patio. Remember to bring your furry friend, as they are very accommodating to dogs as well!

BEST place to be on a warm day. This is hands down the best place to be in Chicago on a warm summer afternoon..granted it's still spring..but the staff is awesome, the patio is awesome, and you're right in the middle of everything downtown. I couldn't ask for a happier afternoon. Will definitely be back to visit our sexy server Sara! Thanks for the shots!

Gold Coast patio fills to the gills with the young and tipsy. Those looking for a quiet night out should avoid this loud, lively hotspot. Packed elbow-to-elbow, it's a hotbed for the date-seeking post-college crowd, who swap digits on the oak-shaded patio. Souvenir cups filled with sweet, boozy bevs and the requisite sliders fit the casual, youthful scene, although fancified pub grub like a lobster cocktail and oysters on the half-shell also lures neighborhood condo-dwellers, who get away from the patio's fray in the exposed brick and wood-planked interior.
