The Ireland-based brewer will open the 15,000-square-foot space this coming this August.

For anybody with a thirst for that smooth, creamy, world-famous Irish dry stout, you’re in luck! Guinness is about to open its second U.S. location right here in Chicago.
The iconic Ireland-based brewer has signed a multi-year lease for a 15,000-square-foot space in the former Pennsylvania Railroad Terminal located at 375 N. Morgan Street.
Construction has been underway for some months transforming the West Loop space and, according to Guinness, it will open to the public this summer! While we won’t get to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in the space this year, the eventual opening is sure to be a hit.
The taproom will offer a rotating menu of various food and beers, including the company’s world-famous Guinness Draught Stout which will be imported from St James’s Gate in Dublin.
A 10-barrel brewing system will also make a selection of small-batch brews that will be exclusively available in the new Chicago taproom. Oh, and there will be informative tours, of course!
It’s not just beer that guests will be able to experience in the new taproom, however. The 15,000-square-foot Chicago space will also function as an events space, a venue for local artists, and will house a bakery like the one in the company’s Maryland location which opened in 2018.
The Chicago taproom will create 75 jobs and “offer rotating beers, cuisine, and events, all bringing to life the spirit of Chicago’s 77 neighborhoods and unique cultural elements” said a Guinness spokesperson in an official statement.
After two years of anticipation, Guinness will launch its Chicago brewery at 8 a.m. Sept. 28. Along with the brewery, the former Pennsylvania Railroad Depot, 901 W. Kinzie St. in the West Loop, will house a full-service restaurant, taproom, bakery and cafe within its 15,000-square-foot space.

The Curragh Irish pub, Que Onda and a Giordano’s pizzeria located in the same building at 6701-6709 N. Northwest Highway, closed early this week, business owners announced in letters posted to social media and on the building’s doors.
With demolition of a once-popular restaurant and banquet hall underway, Des Plaines officials this week revealed details about the three eateries set to take over the property.
A Guzman y Gomez Mexican restaurant, a Raising Cane's chicken joint, and a Mediterranean restaurant called Cava are planned for 2777 Mannheim Road. The roughly 2.4-acre site is on the northeast corner of Mannheim and Pratt Avenue.

Mensch’s, a pop-up/take-out New York-style Jewish deli (yes, that’s a mouthful, just like New York-style Jewish deli sandwiches) will re-open on September 23 for another six weekends.
Prices and fillings can be seen via the Order Online button. Taco fillings, for example, are steak, barbacoa, chicken, chorizo, veggie, avocado, mahimahi with various addons at varying prices. Looks like a basic steak taco is around $4.NFriday wrote:Big Wig Tacos opened up recently at 950 Church in Evanston. They are open from 11:00am-12:00am. On their website they list their menu, but it does not list any prices, and it lists tacos and burritos, but it does not list what kinds they offer. Apparently they have two locations in Chicago too.
