Early morning: Drop bags at hotel/early check-in if possible. Grab breakfast at Wildberry Pancakes
Mid morning - Explore Millenium Park/the Bean/check to see if there will be live music at the theater
Lunch - Grab an Uber to Lou Malnati’s
Afternoon - If not checked in already, check into hotel then walk the Magnificent Mile/Michigan Ave shopping OR architectural boat tour OR rent kayaks and kayak the Chicago river (you don’t want to fall in, but it’s not every day you can kayak between massive skyscrapers!)
Late Afternoon - head back to hotel for a quick nap/freshen up.
Evening - Head up to Wrigleyville either via Uber or grab the Red Line. PLENTY of places to grab a bite once near the stadium depending on what you feel like.
Late Evening - If this is the weekend, head back downtown and ride the Ferris wheel at Navy Pier (open until midnight I believe on weekends in the summer - PHENOMENAL view of the city). If hungry, grab a classic Chicago cheeseburger at the Billygoat Tavern. OR skip both and go grab a drink at the bar of the Signature Room in the Hancock.

Awesome thanks.
Yeah the Cubs game is at 1pm so we were thinking of getting a late lunch somewhere near wrigleyville after the game. Other than that those are great suggestions, the kayak tour does seem cool.
Is the Signature room the best spot to close out the night with a drink?
