One of the best things that Chicago made for their citizens. Bunch of things to do on the river include bars and restaurants. If you are a visitor like me you would love it, why we can’t have this in our cities, right? )))

Amazing. Coffee, Beer-Garden, wine, hot dogs, river cruises, rental boats, couple of miles long walk...dog walk. So many different Architectural display...

I was on a cruise when a friend was moving his boat to his winter location at River City. What beautiful views we saw when going through the locks!

Beautiful views. Great and diverse dining options. Kayak options. Few degrees cooler and quieter than street level.Lots of Chicago specific dining options and local beers at Chicago Beau House.

I love it here. I love to people watch. I love to watch people walk their dogs and have boat tours. Very peaceful fun romantic place. Great views and full of life.

Its such a beautiful place and a great idea for social distancing. You could see many kinds of outdoor activities happening around. People walking, jogging, having food, or just chilling. Therere also great bars and restaurants to visit. I loved sitting by the river and having a drink while enjoying the view

The river is very nice and clear like i never seen these kind of river before in my life, great experience traveling to Chicago

Riverwalk is the best experience enjoying a nature. I believe water is wealth.If you notice about those big City and think about growth those near water are more wealthy than City not near the water.

Love the night ambiance walking the Riverwalk. Absolutely beautiful!! Lookingforward to visiting again.

The river walk is a nice get away at Rivers to stretch your legs and watch life go by. You see it in the river, boats passing by, people walking, some jogging. Great people watching experience.

Stunning walkway both in daytime and evening. A casual stroll, photo taking or grab a bite on the Riverwalk. Its a huge highlight for visitors and locals.

Pre Covid times..the city was thriving

Beautiful promenade lowered from the St level with great view of the Chicago river that stretch continuously on the south bank from W Lake St to N Lake Shore Dr (and Lake Michigan).The park is divided to sections by the streets/bridges. The west sections are more for sitting and hanging out, the middle sections have more business like cafe, ice cream shops and bars, and the east sections are more kids friendly whith playgrounds and also have kayaks rental.Great for walking (also with strollers or pets on leash), jogging or hanging out / picnic. Not for bicycles.Pedestrian, pets (with a leash) and strollers are welcome, bicycle are not.

Amazing place! Fantastic Views from a lower level with a great atmosphere regardless of the weather. Cant wait for my next visit.

Nice place to walk when the night came sometimes romantic what one can find

If youve never been to Chicagos Riverwalk, I highly encourage you to check it out. Its blocks and blocks of restaurants, libations and the sparkling Chicago River with some of the worlds most beautiful architecture overhead. Spend a day walking the Riverwalk, having a bite to eat, enjoying the scene, and doing some of the best people watching ever!

One of my favorite spots in Chicago. Northman is a great spot to have a beer along the river. They have great beers and there table-side ordering system is easy and intuitive.

Cool amenity, would be really nice if the current street that is closed for patio space for restaurants remains designated a promenade. Well on its way to becoming a true canal town.

With covid going on i did not get to experience chicago like it probs could have been, however the river walk gives a nice view of the kind of night life one could expect there year round and was nice place to be

Beautiful! Love how everyone’s enjoying doing their thing, whether boating, getting some exercise, taking a stroll, or grabbing a bite to eat. Definitely wear your mask though (as we all should be anyways!) since it gets crowded.

This is the heart of Chicago. What could be better than drinks at the river with the great views? You can also enjoy a run (little too crowded in the evening for this but still works) here and continue to Lake Front Path.

Gorgeous! Airy, open & the scenery is amazing. Despite being outside, mostly every one followed the mask/face covering policy.

The riverwalk area between the Columbus Drive Bridge and Lake Shore Drive was especially beautiful the other day. The lovely renovated sidewalks and grounds were a welcome sight. The additional seating and picnic tables are great places for some relaxation. The food, tour boat and kayak rental businesses blend well with the flowers and trees.

The Chinatown, architecture is amazing...and there is lots of history.

The most chill place in downtown I would say. I prefer going there towards the evening and the view is spectacular during night. Grab a bite or drink from few restaurants right on the riverwalk and it becomes even better.

Im glad that the city is finally opening back up after the Covid-19 epidemic. The Chicago Riverwalk is a very beautiful, calm and peaceful place to walk along and be when you want to unwind.The fresh air and breeze of the Chicago River is very refreshing. If youre ever in Chicago, or looking for an outside space to just sit, walk or unwind. Then Chicago Riverwalk is the place to be.

It’s at the center of the city. It’s really beautiful although it’s sometimes hard to know where to enter and where to exit. Highly recommended that you come to this beautiful area of downtown.

Lovely place to walk. Great views of the water and city. Plenty of little bars and restaurants along the way. Very family friendly.

Best way to gaze at Chicago’s architecture without spending a penny. Lots of bars along the river walk and better avoid these. Exorbitant prices and nothing more. Better checkout the cruises and rowers on the river. Get a candy pop and enjoy the walk at your own pace.

Beautiful...and very open to minimize contact. Hurry down in the perfect weather - lots of dining options to choose from!

Its so beautiful here and lots to do.. I was able to take beautiful pictures with my family over looking the water, boats and beautiful restaurants. Great place to visit.

Really enjoyed it down there, it was my very first time there out of all my years of living here. It was beautiful.

Its a great place for a walk, especially during the crazy months of COVID-19. You can still felt a kayak and enjoy some good and drink as long as youre wearing a mask and social distance.

Awesome place to escape the hustle of the city and see the city from a different perspective. There are multiple restaurants and beer gardens to hang out at with friends and cool off from the summer sun. I like to launch my personal kayak near the north branch of the Riverwalk and paddle up and down the river.

Great walk way to enjoy the Chicago River. Plenty of restaurants and bars along the way. You can also get on tour boats as well. Very relaxing walk as you also enjoy all the buildings along the walkway. Highly recommended!

Beautiful tourist attraction in Chicago!Chicagos Summer is the most beautiful weather.

Romantic place, use kayak or Take the boat trip

Chicagos Riverwalk is a fantastic destination. Enjoy the views, a leisurely walk, architectural sights and treat yourself to a bite to eat after exploring the wonderful scenes from river level. Fantastic at night!

Nice place for walking in chicago downtown.

Beautiful and well kept.

You have to come here if you haven’t. I went to Chicago around 10 times, and I felt bad about my because I didn’t know about it. It was my first time, worth to visit every time. Highly recommend for all people, friends, families, dating. Have fun there.

Should have done this on my previous trips to Chicago! Very informative on the history of the citys Skyline.

Nicest river walk in Chicago which is not to say it rivals San Antonios but it is nice and clean. Some nice river cruises are offered. And you have some cute bars and restaurants.

It was nice and chill for a November stroll topped off by the wine selection at Lizzie McNeills.

A great place to get the feel of the entire city

Just like Manhattan, we enjoyed the scenic walk. Plenty options for outdoor dining.

There are some patio dining / drinking options available. It ended being a nice day. We ended up kayaking (totally impromptu) on the lake front which was a blast.

Its always beautiful walking by the river

Terrific place to get to see the city along the river and enjoy the outdoors. A number of restaurants and rest areas along the way make it easy to enjoy.

Loved it very scenic has ferries running up and down the river was exceptionally warm that day and enjoyed the Sun

I loved it. You can walk there for hours and enjoy the river . There are lots of places to have a coffee, a drink, something to eat. They are upgrading the Riverwalk and it will be even better. A must go if you visit the city. You can find a place to relax or a place to have fun with your friends. Wear your walking shoes and go for it.

I love this place. Good vibe and energy. Whether you are in walking, jogging or photographing River Walk is unmissable in down town Chicago.

It is amazing place, everyone should visit

Awesome views, great entertainment, good food and drinks ... Its the place to be in Chicago , boat tours, Kayak there is something for everyone

Ive watched it change over the years... Its one of the best places in the city to hang out!! Its awesome.

Do yourself a favor and rent a boat and enjoy the ride in this nice river or walk on the sidewalk and enjoy foods and drinks. For boat ride try to get there early in the morning.

Loved the river walk. Scenic and clean and I liked how they left parts of the park to grow more naturally, it gave animals places to live. People are personable and helpful with directions to out-of-towners like me. Didn’t get to see the pier this trip, but it gives me a reason to come back again .

The Chicago Riverwalk is an open, pedestrian waterfront located on Chicago River in downtown Chicago, Illinois.It extends from Lake Shore Drive to Lake Street. Called the citys Second Waterfront, after Lake Michigan, the Riverwalk contains restaurants, park-seating, boat rentals, and other activities.

Its a great destination for walks along the river and exceptional dining choices. It was a tad bit over crowded today but most people were wearing face masks and were practicing social distancing.

So many restaurants to choose from.Its a good place to walk and relax.I like that it had so many seats that you can stop by to gaze at the view.

Very beautiful... I was looking for Hank with the Chicago PD, but I saw allot of PD.. Chicago is clean and very historic

Definitely not like the other riverwalks weve been on. You have to climb a lot of stairs back onto the street level to eat or drink at most of the places. More of a Ill relax and chill on my lunch hour because I work in Chicago kind of place.

Great walk along the Chicago River. Best experience during summers.

Had a layover of 5 hrs in Chicago. This Imis a great place to explore free of cost

Such a beautiful walk! Very clean and felt safe. Highly recommend checking it out!

Nice walk and the social distancing circle is a great idea

The Chicago Riverwalk is a very nice area.The Chicago Riverwalk is an open, pedestrian waterfront located on the south bank of the main branch of the Chicago River in downtown Chicago, Illinois managed by MB Real Estate. It spans from Lake Shore Drive to Lake Street. Called the citys Second Lakefront, the Riverwalk contains restaurants, park-seating, boat rentals, and other activities. Its current and planned final extent was opened to Wolf Point in 2017

Love Chicago Riverwalk. Walked here many times and also did a free walking tour. Gorgeous architecture and buildings all around. Very iconic and excellent history of the river front. If you have time take the architecture boat tour as well. Loved that too.

Great place for a stroll or dip in the water if you are hot. Have lots of bikes to rent or you can get a rickshaw ride that can take you around the city. All in all lots to door the entire family

The river walk is a nice boulevard along the Chicago river with restaurants, picnic areas, relaxation steps to sit along and enjoy the days.

Beautiful and clean. Lots of spots to eat/drink. And a great place to run, walk, or relax.

Hermoso Lovely evening!

One of the most beautiful places in Chicago. Great for social distancing and romantic dates.

Absolutely Stunning!! Chicago is my favorite city. Water is gorgeous, buildings are amazing and the people are very kind. If youre visiting Chicago, I highly recommend this place.

One of my favorite places in the city great views and good food

It really nice to walk here

Just a great view of the newest part of the city along Chicagos iconic river. You are engulfed by tall structures of very expensive housing and restaurants in an area that was historically a wasteland or warehouse piers and railyards and before that devastated by fire and earlier still a smelly swamp.

I had no idea how nice the Riverwalk is! Ive used it to get from here to there, of course, but never actually walked all the way West. Well definitely take this walk again!

Great for walking and enjoying beautiful sights and people.

Nice, pretty area to go walk along the river.

We got a chance to walk the whole way of the Riverwalk. It was a good walk throughout the city and stop by at all the street food stalls along the way. The food trucks are as awesome along the way.

Beautiful walk. This is a nice place to go for a bit of exercise or pokemon go play. The walk along the river is very relaxing and has lots of small things to see like plaques and murals.

I found the Chicago Riverwalk a beautiful sight. The area was clean with lots to see. There are several boat tours you can take to get a better idea of what to see. There is plenty of stores and restaurants to visit. Eventually it might be as good as San Antonios Riverwalk.

It was everything I hoped it would Be! I wish I knew where the best areas for tourists were along the River Walk. We did take a boat tour though & a bus tour which had great information & facts.

Chicago Riverwalk is must visit. It covers all the skyscrapers in downtown through walkway. You can go for Riverwalk if you don’t wanna do architectural river ride. That’s option you can have! You can have great time at night too!

Beautiful walk along the Chicago River with fantastic views of buildings and a load of good places to eat and drink.

Visited on 8/1 and the weather was great! Walked up and down the river. Most eateries were open. Tours were operating, boating, kayaking, etc. Seemed to be more paved areas since the last time we visited. I would say maybe 3/4 people were wearing masks. Social distancing.

Beautiful city, nice place to walk the dog.

My favorite place to stroll in the city!

The most beautiful walk.....best way to know the city as an outsider.....did you know Chicago was named after a funny smelling onion weed which was mispronounced as Chicagu. The most unexpected weather.....rains when rain isnt in the forecast! Awesome day out....cool food....calm beach....tall buildings....lovely weather....best day out!

Must-do if you’re in Chicago for sightseeing and amazing views of the river. This is the best option to appreciate the beautiful architecture of the city. Try walking at night to enjoy the sight of lit-up buildings and its reflections on the river!

Its a perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Chicago, walking along the Riverwalk. So much people watching, architecture, and great places to grab cold drinks and delicious food.

Great place to enjoy with a loved one. Good bars and atmosphere. Good people everywhere.

Chicago river Walk is a very nice trail along the river with a short version of the entire history of Chicago at the entrance, beautiful seating areas, flowers, entertaining, bars, street Food and much more. Should be on every ones to-do list, while in Chicago

Great walk. Romantic at night.

Love this place its my favorite place to go in Chicago

Great place and scenery to take a stroll for a me-time

Lovely and lively walk along the river through the city

Awesome place! Have to see and enjoy

The heart of Chicago City!..lots of activities and fun..
