Pierrot-Gourmet

Pierrot Gourmet at the Peninsula Chicago Hotel

Located within the luxurious Peninsula hotel, solo diners are a hearty part of the customer base at this adorable little café. While the outdoor patio is the place to be in the summertime with a crisp Alsatian wine (hello, people watching!), the cozy interior — complete with Edith Piaf belting from the sound system — is a great spot to nosh on a buttery croissant while sipping a café au lait and fantasizing about that vacation to Paris.
