Look, Christmas is a lot about the kids. And I know you do your fair share to make that magic happen. You care so much you’ve subscribed to a daily email series about holiday magic making, for goodness sake!
But tonight? I want you to call the sitter, grab your partner, put on some real person clothes and run for the hills.
And don’t just go to the place down the street you always go. Give the night a little something extra by checking out one of the many holiday pop-up bars Chicagoland has to offer!
And since we’re the parenting place, we don’t exactly specialize in bar lists. But our friends over at ChooseChicago.com do! So we’re letting them lead you to the right watering hole this time of year. See here for their most excellent local list.
Personally, I’m choosing Tinseltown at Pink Squirrel. A holiday pop-up bar where I'd certainly be building a build-your-own gingerbread house.
Not into the whole bar thing?
Not to worry! There are plenty of igloos out there where you grab a festive meal! How about a dinner with a skyline view at The Kennedy? Or perhaps fire pits + curling (yes curling!) + sweets at The Gwen? I'm in!
So throw on something red, green or sparkly & make like you’re the couple at the center of the Hallmark movie. ‘Cause sometimes you just need to eat, drink & be merry.
♥️,
Lauren & the Chicago Parent team
