This September 18/19, the Sam Adams Lakeview Taco Fest returns to the Southport Corridor. Back for its eighth flavor-filled year in 2021, it’s also a celebration of seasonal beers as well as the start of autumn.
Whether one prefers their shells filled with traditional chicken, steak, chorizo and beef, or stuffed with imaginative ingredients such as mushrooms, seafood, goat and duck, this fall fest is a wildly popular fixture to the Windy City’s food scene.
More than 8 local eateries challenge themselves to make the tastiest tacos. The fest also features special beer and taco pairings, two music stages, crowd-pleasing Mexican wrestlers, activities for kids, and visitors can text vote for Chicago’s “Best Taco.”
11 am to 10 pm, on Southport between Addison and Roscoe, 3500 N. Southport Ave. (For more details, click here).
