Oak Street Beachstro You’ve got to love the spirit of a business that trucks in palm trees to Chicago’s lakefront each summer, and you’ve got to love the chance to take in a casual lunch, in your swimsuit, with your friends right on the waterfront, with a vista that holds its own with the great beaches of the world. But sometimes you’ve just got to love grabbing a chaise lounge, ordering up a round of Blue Moons, and chilling out with friends in the hot summer sunshine while an acoustic guitarist soundtracks your tropical escape. oakstreetbeachstro.com 1000 North Lake Shore Drive (312)915-4100
