Suggestions for Community and Government near Ravenswood, Chicago

Monica O. • July 15, 2013I have been coming here ever since I can remember. I have mixed feelings about this branch though, the 2nd floor is the best. Lots have great audiobooks downstairs as well.

venessa t. • November 17, 2011Excellent music instruction. Wiggle worms classes are popular with the younger set. They also have regular concerts that I highly recommend, although some can be over-priced.

Bobby K. • October 23, 2014Interesting exhibits about German immigration to and culture in Chicago, plus a breathtaking view of the skyline from the terrace.

Ellen S. • March 16, 2010Beautiful artwork by local artists. Buy some!

Scott B. • July 19, 2019Excellent selection of beers. Nice patio for outdoor fun. Good inside seating with very good food.

Rochelle M. • February 24, 2016Gnocchi is so soft! However, my favorite part was dessert. They had a great pear gelato that would be a nice summer treat.

Charlie R. • July 10, 2015Hey Uplift Community Academy High School, you should join Freebie! It’s pretty rad and the benefits are great for both you and me. Check it out! http://taps.io/freebie

Mindy M. • March 19, 2011Solid bar food. Love the tots and mini corn dogs.

John • November 24, 2019Sandwiches and prepped food are delicious - they also sell booze

Bobby K. • December 10, 2018Seating is next door, which you have to go back outside to get to. But worth it for the amazing coffee and house made croissants.

MetroSeeker.com • June 21, 2011Order an eclair! They are beautiful, light, fluffy and delicious! The Vienna Coffee is to die for.

Ryan H. • November 1, 2010Their proprietary beer, Atlantic ale is a fantastic brew!

Marlies D. • August 9, 2013Had the rainbow trout, really good!

New Life L. • July 1, 2011iPads, Kindles, and Nooks bring us all the words known to man: novels, histories, poetry, and so much more. But the tablets carried by Moses brought us some of the most important words ever written.

David W. • May 14, 2016Very nice center, very friendly people.

Angie O. • February 9, 2012Great prices!!! Will not buy alcohol from anywhere else!

Brian C. • August 18, 2013Great urban community vegetable garden in the 💚 of Edgewater!

Santino R. • July 20, 2011Awesome murals inside and outside. Too bad most people can't see what's inside.

Brandon • February 8, 2024Great coffee, great vibes and solid beer too!

Redeye Chicago • February 12, 2015We recommend the Winter Gingerbee Hot Toddy, a novel combination of Korean honey-ginger tea, which brings a fresh concentrated flavor to the drink, and spicy rye whiskey that matches that intensity.
