I always maintain that Chicago's lifeblood is in the neighborhoods, but I understand that time, etc., can make it tough for weekend visitors to explore.
The Architecture Center, which offers the deservedly popular boat tours, also has bus tours (not sure if doing during covid). I took the neighborhoods tour, and it was really good. Guided bus tour for a couple hours that covered all the major ethnic neighborhoods and parts of town, which would have taken me multiple days to see on my own.
Took the L out to Oak Park and walked a few blocks to Frank Lloyd Wright's house for a tour. Then Lyft to Johnnie's Beef for lunch. That was a great day.
Wrigleyville: Big Star, right across the street from the ballpark, has good tacos, extensive bourbon selection, and (when we went) cheap Tecate for those on a budget. Huge place.
