Set among a pile of shipping containers next to West Loop event space City Hall, Recess bills itself as one of the city's largest patios, complete with a multi-level set-up and multiple bars. Once you have a table, there's a ton of bar food to choose between, from buffalo chicken rolls to to pies from Recess's in-house pizzeria, Bob's Pizza. And of course, you'll find plenty of cocktails (with or without CBD), local brews and rosé during a long afternoon or a late night.
