Need Help Planning the Perfect Picnic?

Posted by Andrea on Aug 6, 2015

We have so many opportunities to enjoy meals outdoors here in Chicago, from concerts at Ravinia and Millennium Park to Movies in the Parks to simply finding a quiet spot along our beautiful lakefront.

If you need location inspiration, here are some of our other favorite places to picnic:

  • Adler Planetarium
  • Dan Ryan Forest Preserve
  • Montrose Beach
  • Lincoln Park
  • Maggie Daly Park
  • Welles Park
  • Lincoln Park Zoo
  • Promontory Point

Picnics can be fun for the whole family, but sometimes it may seem like it takes an army to pack up everything and transport it to that perfect piece of grass.
