Seasonal Locations
Enjoy Chicago's largest beer garden at the Double Clutch Plaza, or dine al fresco with views of Chicago's famous 'Cloud Gate' at Casa Bonita!
OPEN MAY–OCTOBER
Double Clutch Plaza
From May through October, we transform the Millennium Park Ice Skating Rink into Chicago’s largest beer garden—the Double Clutch Beer Garden. Operated by the team behind Double Clutch Brewing Company, this dynamic outdoor space combines the lively spirit of a traditional beer garden with the breathtaking backdrop of Millennium Park.
Our beer garden features a rotating selection of award-winning craft beers brewed on-site in Evanston, complemented by a menu of shareable plates, seasonal bites, and classic beer garden favorites. With plenty of seating and a welcoming atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy live music, group gatherings, or a relaxing afternoon under the city skyline.
Whether you’re stopping by after work, making a day of it in Millennium Park, or attending one of the city's signature events, the Double Clutch Beer Garden offers a unique open-air dining and drinking experience you won’t want to miss.
Casa Bonita
Located just steps from the iconic Cloud Gate, affectionately known as "The Bean," Casa Bonita brings a vibrant taste of Mexico to the heart of Millennium Park. As an extension of our sister restaurant in Libertyville, this seasonal location offers a lively and inviting atmosphere where guests can enjoy bold, authentic flavors paired with refreshing margaritas and cocktails.
​
From hand-pressed tortillas to fresh ceviche and flavorful tacos, our menu celebrates the richness of Mexican cuisine with dishes crafted from high-quality, locally sourced ingredients. During warmer months, the energy spills outside onto our patio, offering al fresco dining with unparalleled views of Chicago's most beloved landmarks.
​
Whether you're stopping by after exploring the park, celebrating a special occasion, or simply craving delicious Mexican food, Casa Bonita is your perfect destination for a memorable dining experience in the heart of downtown Chicago.
