Suggestions for Metro Station near Chicago

L K. • August 20, 2014Be sure you're on the right side of the tracks. Don't touch the third rail.

Max M. • November 9, 2016One of the nicer brown line stops.

Jon M. • April 2, 2014Nearby places ... Thai restaurant and a bar next door. Dunkin donuts, Klein park, a Mediterranean restaurant, and a Mexican restaurant. There's also a western union next to it.

Zach L. • February 21, 2013The remodel is great, but the new heat lamps are so low they burn your scalp! #humanfrenchfry

joey m. • July 28, 2011If you had a bad commute, walk west on Irving Park to the Globe Pub and get a shot of Malort to ease your troubles.

Lauren M. • August 12, 2014Brown line is great because they always have seats and it's clean

Roadretro • June 17, 2011If you need to walk to Andersonville (west), catch a car at the back of the train. Bryn Mawr is super busy and the light at the corner is easier to manouver if you do this.

Heidi S. • January 30, 2010If the lights start flashing, you can make it to the station b4 the barricades close from about 75 yards. You can do it!

Jake S. • July 8, 2013See some live entertainment at the Riviera Theater, the Green Mill Cocktail Lounge, or the Annoyance Theater.

Raed M. • October 13, 2014My most favorite stop-well lit and it feels safer than most, probably because it's in Ravenswood Manor. Enter either on Sacramento or Francisco, but Ventra vending/cash machine only at Francisco side.

Smokey B. • March 29, 2012Eat at CBA everyday for a full tummy and warm heart!

Matt S. • July 28, 2013People walk as fast as they can to get through the turnstiles and then crawl up the stairs and make you miss your train.

Jake S. • July 15, 2013If you enjoy outdoor dining in the summer, this is a great spot for you. Hit up one of the many restaurants in the immediate area.

Dan I. • November 18, 2012Nice new station. The new heat lamps are amazing!

Phoenix J. • April 2, 2018Tons of restaurants within walking distance.

Brandi W. • May 12, 2013Don't listen to these newbies to the area warning you about mugging and shit like that. I've live in the area all my life and have felt safe from sunrise, sunset, and dusk. These guys are paranoid!

K B. • July 13, 2011Absolutely love this street! She knows why! ;)

Tea R. • October 12, 2022The gateway into Lincoln Square- surrounded by great restaurants, gift and boutique shops. In the summer & fall there’s a Tues morn & Thurs eve Farmer’s market with a dozen + food vendors & artisans

Fred M. • July 31, 2011There's a little restaurant called Luzzat. They have great affordable Indian dishes!

Joey L. • March 28, 2012One of the best stops in Chicago!

Andrew W. • August 16, 2014Clean and safe. Only problem is congested stairs and path to the platform

Casey J. • August 17, 2018I use this station often, and have never had any problems. Walk to the south end of the station to enter/exit near Target on Sunnyside. This side is well lit and generally better.

James J. • March 13, 2012Hidden power outlet across from elevator upstairs, next to trash can...

Patrick J. • October 1, 2015Well as it can be nicely put the only order of business that makes sense is DUNKIN DONUTS! Unless you are shopping for groceries (inflation is Huge at the place to do so) Whole Foods!

L K. • August 20, 2014If you're tired, there's an escalator! It's a bit hidden, opposite the mural.

Summer M. • May 25, 2013Alex is the best train operator ever! He always gets me to work on time at 5am on Saturday mornings -and always with a smile ! (which is usually more than I can muster at that time of day) :D

Ryan S. • July 17, 2017The humble Clarendon Community Center contains the sprawling landscape created by the rail enthusiast demi-gods of the The Garfield-Clarendon Model Railroad Club.

Latoya W. • April 17, 2012The quiet cars are the best in the morning when you need a little extra sleep :)

Makaili H. • September 15, 2011If it's your first time.. take dramamine before you get on.
