Order total: $15.50 Open: year round Seating: indoor and outdoor Parking: Just Uber, walk, or bus over Order: 1 polish sausage, Chicago style Pros: Life changing to be honest. I usually put away at least 2 hot dogs and a burger, but I decided to do one polish sausage (as told by a local Uber driver, the polish sausage is better than the dog) with cheese fries and go from there. Wow. I never ever thought to put both relish and pickles on a hot dog. Chicago style also adds mustard, onion, tomato, celery salt, and sport peppers. I had no idea hot dogs could be a full sandwich until now. I have a new favorite topping combination and it's 100% this. Bonus, the 1 mile walk around Navy Pier made for a great view of the city and famous ferris wheel. Cons: Where the hell do you get sport peppers?!

The Funhouse was amazing. It took a long time for me to get out of the first part! Jumpscares in several places that enhance the experience and make you laugh. It's great to share with your family. The Funhouse isn't the only great thing about it, though. The people, the sights, and the games are all so amazing! Everyone is so nice to eachother and the games are great to play with friends, family, or even by yourself! The prices are a bit high, but it's worth the experience. I didn't get many pictures of the Funhouse, (I was too busy having Fun!), but I got plenty of the cityscape from the Ferris wheel. It's beautiful! The pictures I attached are the entrance to the Funhouse, one of the first jumpscares, and the Ferris wheel at night (from down below).

High noon on a Tuesday in July. Nice crowd on the Navy Pier. Most are sitting inside but I chose the outdoor bar to see the water and boats and people watch. Ordered a Billy Goat Pilsner which was nothing remarkable, but a solid pils. Fries were respectable. Light, just crisp enough on the outside, fluffy inside and definitely taste fresh cut. Got the Italian Beef, hot peppers, extra wet and American cheese and fried onions. This is a spot-on sandwich. Decent size, about a 6" roll, very fresh bread, meat is tender and flavorful with a slight peppery hint. Very satisfying!!

Had to try the food since everyone says it’s so good and it is. For a $6 burger it was delicious. They have more than just burgers on the menu too and everything is very reasonably priced. They make it right in front of you and it’s done quickly. The service and this specific location was not great. The lady was just on her phone playing a video while we were trying to order and the guys making our food weren’t paying attention to the food, they were mostly watching whatever game was playing on the tv at the time. But for $6, it was good I definitely recommend coming here.

Shared the burger, Italian beef, salad & cheese fries. It was a lot of food, but so good. Lively environment as we got food right before it closed. Heads up, all restaurants and attractions close early at Navy pier. Overall great Chicago style food. They have a small indoor section and an out door patio. Bars both indoor and outdoor as well.
