American Girl Place
For the moms who gave THE Doll and the daughters who got THE Doll, this cafe offers another memorable mother-daughter experience. It’s on the second floor of the American Girl Place right across from Chicago’s historic Water Tower on Chicago Avenue. The New York Times calls it "the destination of choice for 4-to-12-year-old girls from all over the United States." And make sure your little girl brings her Doll along because there’s a Treat Seat at the table where the Doll can sit while you and your daughter enjoy your meal. |

ESPN Zone
We don’t mean to be insulting but this place is for the sports nut! We really mean it. If you’re a sports freak, the ESPN Zone is what you think heaven will be like. Sporting events play on screens tucked into every nook and cranny, crack, crevice and corner of the place. If you don’t see the game you want to see playing on one of these screens – and that’s almost an impossibility – just tell a waitress and she’ll find it. |
