Antique Taco Wicker Park

Delicious espresso drinks. A little on the expensive side, but definitely worth it if you appreciate great coffee. They take their time, so definitely not the place to come if you're in a rush.

Piece Brewery

They've been around forever and I like their pulled chicken and pulled pork a lot. Their brisket tends to be on the fattier side. Great brunch too.

Drinks & Nightlife
Super sexy cocktail bar. Dark and intimate with excellent cocktails and small plates. Great for a date night. The entrance is hidden, so you'll need to look closely at the wall with the mural.
