The neighborhood
The patio at Lincoln and Diversey
Diversey Parkway is the line between Lincoln Park and Lakeview, and we're on the Lakeview side, at the south end of the Lincoln Avenue strip of shops, bars and coffee spots that runs north toward Belmont.
Weekends are brunch. The patio fills up under the umbrellas, and it's the reason a lot of people choose this shop. You can also book the patio for a private event.
Gotham is a Lincoln Brunch Fest participant. It's the Lakeview Roscoe Village Chamber of Commerce's free brunch festival on Lincoln Avenue between Diversey and Wellington, right outside our door.
