Call Your Mother, the Washington, D.C.-based bagel shop known for its playful spin on deli classics, is bringing its carb-y offerings to Chicago. Husband and wife owners Andrew Dana and Dani Moreira plan to open their first Midwest location in Wicker Park at 1615 N. Damen Avenue next spring, taking over the former home of Dimo's Pizza. The expansion introduces the growing company's signature mash-up of New York and Montreal bagels, cheeky branding, and vibrant spaces to a new market.

Sarima Cafe blends South Asian cuisine with Filipino influences, featuring dishes like sweet potato mushroom dosa, calamansi shrikhand doughnuts, and ube crinkle cookies.

The Violet Hour has remained an essential fixture in Wicker Park and a quiet icon on the national cocktail scene, sparking a cultural shift in how this city drinks and gathers.
