Second visit even if visiting from UK
Loved it as much as first time - book early as they are very busy

Cindy’s is a great spot for drinks and/or dinner if you are visiting Chicago for a short break.

Located on the top floor of the Chicago Athletic Club on S Michigan Avenue, it has a stunning view of Millennium Park and the Cloud Gate sculpture, and that whole part of downtown Chicago in general.

We visited for dinner in early October, having a drink outside on the balcony beforehand and taking in the view, with a fire pit there to keep us warm.

Inside the building is cosy with a great atmosphere. Staff and food were both excellent, with a nice menu.

Highly recommended if you want a venue where the location adds something to the experience. I think you can only reserve a table 15 days before your visit, so be mindful of that, although it is definitely worth it.

While I would have liked to try the Top Chef restaurant's food, we came on a Saturday afternoon for dirnks. It is standing room only. Great views of Millenium Park and the lake. As expected, not cheap. Cocktails $18+ and beers $8+

Awesome spot for drinks. Great view. Try to get there before dark and have a cocktail on the patio. There’s no seats so it’s designed just for a cocktail. Tables inside were cool and quickly design. Menu is small but apps were awesome! We just shared a bunch and everything was delicious! The bartenders are fancy and make awesome cocktails. Note this is in the Athletic Club so not easy to find. Really cool.

This was a great spot for a night out including drinks on the 13th floor overlooking the lake and dinner. Market Price for food options wasn't bad for Chicago prices! Reservations are encouraged.
