The best of the best, just west of the rest. Regularly listed as a top place to live, don’t let room for growing families and good schools fool you. Wary of big box stores and mindful of diversity and inclusion, Oak Park isn’t just another suburb. This mini-city has a committed, active citizenry, great public spaces and excellent dining, shopping and culture too. And, yes, that architect's houses.
A long-time local favorite, recently reimagined.
For book lovers of any age.
With art-slathered walls, a super friendly staff, an in-house newsletter, a play space in the back, and a menu with something for everyone featuring local, organic, vegan and vegetarian foods, The Buzz has been Oak Park's gathering place and community center for nearly twenty years. Some Friday nights are burger, beer and band nights in this Oak Park Arts District standard bearer.
