Sleeping Village
Easily overlooked but never underappreciated, this local beergarden/venue is tucked away in the unsuspecting neighborhood of Avondale.
Often mistaken for an office on the outside but can distinguish otherwise with its beautiful artisic black and white mural.
During the daytime this venue transforms into a coffee bar, perfect seating area if you need some quiet time to study and or do some remote work.
That is until the nighttime when this venue comes alive just as much as the people whom flock to it. From bands to dj’s to comedians this Sleeping Village has plenty of forms of entertainment to offer their community.
Cafe Selmarie
Located in the heart of Lincoln Square in the Giddings Plaza, Cafe Selmarie’s is a French Patisserie. They have been serving the community as early as 1983. This bakery brings much foot traffic and is a step away from the busy streets of Chicago with a very European feel.
Iron Heritage
Deep in the neighborhood of Northcenter, artisan barber and local haircut legend Mike Barbier snips away at Chicago locals locks. If you find that you need to look sharp for an interview, date and or for just yourself go no further than Iron Heritage Barbershop.
