 Andersonville
is a diverse community with varying ethnic groups linked together in
a charming and delightful mosaic. This area is distinctive,
different and ideal for the visitor who wants more than the usual
Chicago excursions to Buckingham Fountain, Water Tower Place and
Millennium Park. You can get to Chicago’s main attractions easily
enough by El, bus or cab, but you can also enjoy what’s right here
in Andersonville.
Find locally-owned shops
and boutiques next door to quaint brunch spots, Middle Eastern
bakeries, hip bars and gastro-pubs. There is still a strong
Scandinavian presence here and the neighborhood is also known for
vibrant gay and lesbian communities and an accepting, open attitude
about life.
Among the many restaurants: the Icosium Kafe features sensational
crêpes; Reza's (Persian) offers a mean (nice)
Gheimeh Badenjan;
and Ann Sathers is known for its oh-so-sinful cinnamon rolls. In
winter, take the chill off the Chicago weather with a glass of grog
at Andie’s. In a cultural mood? Take in the Edgewater Historical
Society and Museum, Las Manos Gallery or the Swedish American
Museum. And for nightlife, you’ll find things always hopping at
Hopleaf and Atmosphere.
Here’s Where to Stay
B&B-Wise
It’s always
wise to book your stay at a charming and quaint Chicago Bed and
Breakfast versus a cold, indifferent, downtown Chicago hotel. That’s
especially true when you stay for one night or several at
House
5863 B&B. This super-comfortable and convenient B&B is
located on the north lakefront. Check it out, and then check in. You
can count on gracious hospitality to go along with the superb
location.
Take advantage of
everything that diverse and delightful Andersonville offers.
