ANDERSONVILLE
Chicago’s old Swedish quarter is also recognised as the city’s most diverse and quirky neighbourhood. The locale takes pride in its strong LGBTQ+ presence. During Pride Month, it is decked up with pop-up bars, charming boutiques, and cafes. A range of new bars and restaurants have cropped up in the region; must-visits include Nobody’s Darling, a black-owned queer cocktail bar; and Parson’s Chicken & Fish, famous for its fried chicken, Negroni slushies, and outdoor patios. Events such as Taste of Andersonville allow you to sample some of the best restaurants that Andersonville has to offer, while initiatives such as Clark Street Composts serve as a model for eco-friendly composting throughout Chicago.
