Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry at the Sheraton Grand Chicago. Shula’s Steak House offers classic steak and seafood dinners, while Chicago Burger Company brings casual bites and cocktails with waterfront views. There are five total restaurants and bars on-site, and many more within walking distance. Whether you're craving a post-show snack or a hearty late breakfast, you’ll have plenty of options.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about comfort than clubbing, it’s perfectly placed for nightlife. The Mag Mile is just a few blocks away, packed with bars, lounges, and vibrant energy. After the concert, relax with a drink in the hotel’s own bar or check out nearby spots for a nightcap.

Areas for Improvement
