Sheffield & DePaul • $$

This neighborhood brewpub pairs rotating craft beers with an unexpectedly ambitious menu of Creole and Mexican fusion dishes. The vibe is laid-back, but the selection is serious.

Kasey's Tavern · Chicago Loop • $

The dive bar you were looking for: 130+ beers, a Belgian focus, and zero pretension in a historic 1889 space. Expect dark wood, friendly bartenders, and an unhurried atmosphere that turns strangers into regulars.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I start with Chicago’s live-performance scene?

Check what’s playing at Steppenwolf Theatre Company for theatre, or Sleeping Village for live music. Read about the actual production or listen to the artist before choosing. You don’t need to recognise a name for it to be your kind of evening.

How do I turn a Chicago event into a whole evening?

Choose the show first, then make plans nearby. Leave enough room between dinner and curtain time to enjoy both. Tell me where you’re staying and whether you’re taking transit, and I can help narrow the search to an evening that fits together.

How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?

Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Do I need an account to use Outgoing?
