Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Glenwood
The University of Chicago

Storied, research-centric private school known for its medical & economics programs & scenic campus.
"Of the numerous buildings that Frank Lloyd Wright designed around Chicago, none is more famous or influential than Robie House. Because its horizontal lines resembled the flat landscape of the Midwestern prairie, the style became known as the Prairie style. Inside are 174 stained-glass windows and doors, which you'll see on the hour-long tours (frequency varies by season, but there's usually at least one tour per hour). Advance tickets are highly recommended."
"With over 40,000 unobstructed-view seats, the White Sox stadium is a good spot to capture your ice cream cone, the crowd, AND the field in one shot. Unless you’re going for the 3lb ice cream sundae in a batting helmet… you’re probably gonna need two hands for that."

Basic, no-frills Chinese restaurant serving standard appetizers, entrees & lunch specials.
"Creative Brazilian-style cakes and treats are baked at Fabiana’s Bakery, a cute space on 53rd Street in Hyde Park. Chocolate cakes and banana cream pies are highlights. Fabiana Carter also provides booze-infused desserts down the street at Bibliophile, the gastropub/cafe she and her husband run down the street."
The Polo Inn
4.7 (254 ratings)
American spot attached to a B&B offering Angus steaks, a full bar & Sunday gospel brunch since 1985.
"If you are looking for a casual place for lunch, check out The Polo Café. Stop in for the crème brûlée French toast or the pan-seared salmon fillet, and don’t miss the “Taste of Chicago” sliced mozzarella bread. If you really want a one-of-a-kind visit to the Polo Café, they also have a “Gospel Sing-Along Brunch” every Sunday morning."
"The lines haven’t subsided in Chatham where Oooh Wee It Is opened in late February. A reluctant restaurant owner has turned to tasty soul food items like shrimp and grits and pot roast cupcakes. This is a fun space filled with cereal boxes and decorated with Marvel Comics props."
