Stopped by for an afternoon beer. Great spot at Navy Pier. You have to walk a long ways to get here though. It's located at the end of the pier. Good service, cold beer and a great view.
If you want a great view of the Chicago skyline, visit Offshore Rooftop! I came here for an early birthday celebration and it did not disappoint. I reserved reservations about 2 months in advance, just to ensure we had a seat. I reserved reservations about 2 months in advance, just to ensure we had a seat. Because we're going on a weekday and during the afternoon, getting a reservation was much easier. Even with us parking in the East parking garage, it still took us about 10 minutes to get to the venue. Offshore Rooftop is at the very end of the pier. If you have trouble walking, be prepared for the long walk. Take your time and give yourself some extra time when booking reservations. Once we arrived, we were seated promptly. We chose indoor seating - mostly because I have a thing about birds terrorizing me by sitting next to me or taking my food. Although we were indoors, the space has very large windows that you are able to get a great view from wherever you are sitting. You're host or hostess will also give you a pair of complimentary sunglasses. My buddy and I enjoyed some amazing drinks with cute names. We wanted to keep it light because we were eating dinner later, so we dined on some appetizers while enjoying our conversation and the amazing Chicago skyline. I'm so glad I was able to come here for my birthday. I'll have to come again during autumn or early winter.
Stopped by while visiting Navy Pier; no tables available but did have space at the bar. Great views. Got a few cocktails., a few snacks, and some nice conversation. Friendly bartenders. Bar patron complimented my wife by offering his buddy's stool, with the comment, "you're gorgeous!" We all got a laugh out of that, and true enough! Take advantage of rideshare drop/pickup just downstairs.
Loved, loved, loved this experience. In all honesty, we we concerned about this being a Chicago "tourist trap" since it is at the Navy Pier. It is everything but. It was such a great way to take in the lake view while listening to the music from the love band on the pier. From the drinks to the views, our experience was outstanding. I can't remember our bartender's name, but she was amazing. I can tell you that she and her BROTHER were the bartenders for the day; and, she was hilarious and attentive while he was super focused and clearly wanted to "do a good job". We had a Paloma, which ended up being one of the better ones that we'd had on our visit, RedBull/tequila, and a beer. We also tried their queso, which was surprisingly good (we're Texans, so we are natural queso snobs... lol). If you're at Navy Pier, make this a stop because it was the perfect way for us to wrap up a great day at the Pier.
One of the best skyline views in Chicago! Beautiful inside and out, with a great and classy cocktail menu. Bartenders are great and the people were enjoying themselves. Always a stop when I'm in Chicago. - Anthony
