Where To Eat Around The Second City

"Happy Camper is a really good bar that has some solid pizza. It’s known for creative toppings, like buffalo chicken and pulled pork, and a crust that’s soft and airy but also crunchy on the outside (deep dish or thin crust diehards might not love it, but you can’t please everyone). You’re really here for the space, which is huge and kind of like an adult playground, with tire swing barstools, a rehabbed Airstream camper, and an enormous neon outline of the Great Lakes. It’s a weird decor combination, but it succeeds in making the entire experience fun, and it might even bring you back to that time in college when you took improv classes (before realizing comedy is best left to those who are funny)." - adrian kane
