"Kibbitznest is the type of bar-coffee shop-bookstore hybrid that mostly exists in TV shows and movies (and probably your dreams). A fun, neighborhood spot where friends show up for Tuesday night trivia, couples on dates split cheese boards and drink cocktails, and introverts unwind after work with beer and a $2 adult coloring sheet. Lucky for you, Kibbitznest is real, and it’s in Lincoln Park. Just know that it’s a wifi-free zone and food options are limited to the aforementioned cheese and snacks like chips and salsa and ice cream. But there’s always Pequod’s across the street." - Veda Kilaru
