*CANCELED!* Let's Go Back to Boat Drinks @Burnham Harbor w/Live Blues Jam
Details
***DUE TO RAIN FORECAST THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED AS IT IS ALL OUT IN THE OPEN WITH NO NEARBY BUILDINGS!***
Let's go back one more time while the weather is still nice to this great lakefront spot over in Burnham Harbor! It's always a good time with great music! You will feel like your are on the coast! We did it a few times this year & had the blast as long as weather cooperates! We will be doing this event with our sister group, 1001 Things to See in Chicago Before You Die so this is a multi meetup event
OUTDOOR FOOD, DRINKS & LIVE MUSIC - only 4-6 people per table. They do not take reservations so first come first served for outside on patio. We may not be able to sit near each other.
It is counter service so everyone will pay for their own food & drink separately
Find great food, drinks and people at Boat Drinks in Burnham Harbor Chicago Illinois. - Boat Drinks is right next to the boat launch, 1 block SE of Soldier Field. Chicago Dockside Dining - a hidden gem, located right on the water overlooking beautiful Burnham Harbor.
Enjoy some of the best views the city has to offer while sitting lakeside. Savor their handmade appetizers, sandwiches and pizza. Treat yourself to adult juice box or kick back with an ice cold beer or a nice glass of wine. You will be transformed to a beach café in Florida or California!
Boat Drinks is located where the Sky Ride was built as an attraction for the 1933 World's Fair. It was a transporter bridge designed to ferry people across the lagoon (Burnham Harbor) in the center of the fair.
They have a limited menu and serve great drinks.

Not sure who is the musical guest on the 14th. It only lists Blues Jam. They usually have a great lineup. When I know the artist, I will post an update
MUSIC DOES NOT START UNTIL 6:30 PM BUT TABLES FILL UP SO WE ARE GOING EARLIER TO GRAB SPOTS SINCE NO RESERVATIONS. IF YOU CANNOT COME EARLY AND WISH TO JOIN LATER, LET ME KNOW AND WE CAN TRY TO HOLD A SPOT FOR YOU BUT NO GUARANTEE!
BRING BUG SPRAY AS IT CAN GET BUGGY AS THE VENUE IS RIGHT ON THE BEACH!
