A buncha worth-your-time, green line-adjacent spots.
You don't have to love French fare to dig this huge indoor market. Spots like Saigon Sisters, a juice bar, a frites vendor, and a pasta spot have a lunch treat for any craving.
The dining room at this Italian/French/other Euro mashup drips with luxe touches, bit menu is affordable. Try the house-milled flour in pizzas & pastas. Huge Belgian beer selection.
There's so much to love here, from the meaty subs to the perfectly curated grocery selection (high-quality oils, pastas, cheese). Love the down-to-earth, old-school staff.
Love the java drinks here. A few things to know: Only one size (smallish) and no wifi. But don't let that scare you off- this place is fab!
Best darn banh mi downtown. Try the Hen House if you dig chicken. The bao is so good you can pop it like candy. Awesome pho too.
A stone's throw from the El and a darn good spot to grab a Daisy Cutter and a burger (on a tasty pretzel bun, no less). TVs make for a decent spot to watch the game too.
