Tavern on Rush, one of the Gold Coast’s most iconic and packed restaurants, is closing after nearly 25 years. Fortunately, you have some time to make your last visit to the restaurant’s prime outdoor patio by Mariano Park, as it plans to stay open through New Year’s Eve. Owner Phil Stefani said that the restaurant is still doing well, but its 25-year lease is ending and the landlord wants to do something else. “They decided they no longer wanted to lease the space,” he said. Last week, the steakhouse announced the closing on Facebook, thanking its customers for the long run. “We owe our decades of success to our loyal customers and hardworking staff, many of whom have been with @tavernonrush since its inception in April of 1998,” the post read. Stefani said the restaurant’s phone has been ringing constantly since the announcement was made. “Every restaurant builds its own niche and history, and we’ve been blessed,” he said. “Twenty-five years is a long time for any restaurant.” And he’s been humbled by the outpouring. “That’s the thing about restaurants, it’s really the hospitality industry,” Stefani said. “People have strong memories. This is where they go on dates, have meetings and cut deals.” Click the link in our bio for more. (James F. Quinn / Chicago Tribune)

The Chicago Air and Water Show is back from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday after being canceled in 2020 and running a scaled-back event in 2021. The free spectacle running along the lakefront features the U.S. Navy Blue Angels showing off precision maneuvers, and the U.S. Army Parachute Golden Knights jumping out of planes from 12,000 feet to land on North Avenue Beach. You’ll also see a variety of other military and civilian pilots flying jets, tankers and search and rescue vehicles. Lakefront restaurants and bars are offering special packages with food and drinks during the show, and you can also get an up-close look from a skyscraper or a boat on Lake Michigan.

“Inflation won’t quit. The price of gas has reached the stratosphere. The stock market is taking a beating. And I won’t even start on crypto,” writes Tribune reporter Josh Noel.⁠ Boy, could we use a beer.⁠ ⁠ But we don’t need just any beer in these fraught economic times. What we need more than ever is good beer at an even better value, Noel says.⁠ ⁠ “That doesn’t mean it’s time to pretend we’re in college and settle for oceans of cheap, lousy beer. It means bang for the buck. It means finding the beers that perform above their price. It means finding the great deals hiding in plain sight.”⁠ ⁠ Click the link in our bio for 10 beers that punch above their financial weight, starting with the cheapest. (E.

This weekend, Lollapalooza (@lollapalooza) will bring enormous crowds to Grant Park, with music fans from around the world flocking to the city. But the fun doesn’t start or stop at the festival gates, with bars, restaurants, nightclubs and music venues around Chicago hosting specials and events, including plenty of official after-parties. Whether you’re looking for a place to get a great meal or a drink after the fest, or want to catch an extra set from your favorite performers, plan to hit up some of these 42 spots. Many of the after-parties sell out, so be sure to get tickets soon. Click the link in our bio for more. (John J. Kim / Chicago Tribune / @johnkimpictures) #lollapalooza
