Chicago Restaurant Reopenings

Now that indoor dining is back, restaurants and bars that have been closed since the start of the pandemic are starting to reopen. And as it gets warmer, places that temporarily closed for the winter are coming out of hibernation. So, just like with our Closings Guide, we’re keeping track of them all, separated by neighborhood, in this running list.

If you know of a spot that should be included on this guide, please send an email to chicago@theinfatuation.com.
