Savor Historic Gold Coast & Old Town Food Tour

Get ready to taste some of the best foods in Chicago’s Gold Coast & Old Town! Victorian-era buildings, brick alleyways, and narrow, tree-lined streets are charming backdrops to a busy main strip of restaurants and shops on Wells Street. Family-owned restaurants are fixtures of the neighborhood and the variety of food ranges from sushi and steak to pizza and pasta. The mix of old taverns with new bars and boutiques keeps the Gold Coast & Old Town a favorite Chicago neighborhood for people of all ages. We will walk to seven different food tastings (enough for lunch) which are included in the ticket price: (restaurants are subject to change). Unlike other Old Town Food Tours Tastebud Food Tours allows time for shopping at all stops, get ready to have fun!
