re: Chicago, things to do?

Any rooftop bars/spots to check out that are still good during the colder months with nice views/atmosphere?

- Up & UP (Robey Hotel, Wicker Park)
- IO (Godfrey Hotel, River North)
- J. Parker (Lincoln Hotel, Lincoln Park)
- Cindy's (Chicago Athletic Association, The Loop)

My recommendation would be Up & Up. Sweeping views of the city and there are a lot of great restaurants, bars and cocktails lounges in Wicker Park.
- Dorian and Violet Hour are speakeasy types.
- Etta and Publican Anker are my two favorite restaurants in the six corners area.
- Angry Pig Tavern is the place to grab charcuterie boards and drinks.
- Links Taproom has a good beer list.
- Paradise Park is a pizza spot from the owners of Homeslice and Happy Camper, but this will draw a younger crowd for drinks.
- You're also not very far from Logan Square. Easily accessible via train or Lyft/Uber. Plenty of cocktail bars, breweries, and restaurants in that area.
