    Loved our experience at second city meadery. To be honest, I've never quite found a mead I liked, until coming here. Then I found multiple delicious meads. What I really love about this place is the bright and open interior, dog friendly, and generous flights. The space is perfect for group gatherings, wedding receptions, and would be a great place to start some tabletop games with a group.

    To-go bottles, great for sharing and celebrating.

    I like this place a lot. If you haven't tried mead before, it's a delicious sweet wine made from honey and fruit. No one in Chicago does it better. I'll like it more when my insulin is more affordable. Worth every minute and penny spent there.

    Fantastic selection of locally made meads, both sweet and semi-sweet. It's great to be able to support a small local business like this!

    For those who don't know what mead is, this is an amazing Meadery to start at! Several flight options and very diverse types of meads for everyone!

    Every time I think I find my favorite mead I've ever had, Second City makes another incredible mead. Whether I'm going on a date or meeting up to play cards with a group of friends, I love the atmosphere and the friendly staff. If you're in the city, you have to come here!!!

    Coopers hawk for brunch... who knew this place got so packed! Went for brunch with a girlfriend…read morearound noon. Ordered the plate of Gnocchi with roasted butternut squash and Chicken Madeira, both the lunch size entrees. The waitress knew we were going to split the meals in half so she brought the meals out separately and in two separate plates. Doing so gave us time to savor each meal on its own and not have to try and divvy it up ourselves. I loved it. The food was phenomenal! We also had the bacon wrapped shrimp for an appetizer and that did not last long on the plate. Upon leaving we were trying to buy a couple bottles of wine. We tried getting the attention of the staff, yet were told they were busy. We waiting a good 10mins and still didn't get any help. I'm not sure why they were so short staffed for a busy afternoon, they could literally have 1 or 2 people at a register just for takeout wine orders. Or, suggestion, before we leave our table, we put the order in and they have it ready at the register for us to pay on our way out. Either way we walked out of there without wine. This place is big enough to accommodate alot of people and there is a parking garage just behind it, which makes it very convenient.

    My husband and I went here today(Aug 2) for my 48th bday for happy hour. Our server was Dianna C…read more This young lady was phenomenal, she was very helpful abs explained everything. She always stop back to make sure we were okay. This young lady definitely deserve a big raise. We will definitely return again due to the amazing service and experience we had. Thank you Dianna C for the amazing experience and thank you for making my 48th birthday special. Dianna C continue to be amazing. Parking: We found a park right across from Cooper Hawk. The parking is street parking which you're pay at the parking meter. It was $1 per hour. So we only paid $3

    Wine, food, and atmosphere were pleasing! Played wine…read morebingo...enjoyed! New location was a pleasant suprise!

    Tried this place for the first time this Saturday with a larger group of ladies. I love that they…read morehave wine flights where you can try 4 wines, but the slushees other reviews mention might be a seasonal thing. Seems reasonable to get 4 small glasses of wine for $16. Our waitress seemed overwhelmed with the amount of tables she was handling and just overall grumpy. I can understand that doing separate checks for a large group might not be fun, but she just seemed irritable the whole time until we gave her a decent tip. She directed us to get our own water from the self-serve station. I did like that I could do the wine flight from the table vs. they only offer the 6 wine tasting from the bar. I was a little disappointed that no one explained which wine was which, and I was left guessing when I ordered all sweet wines and a couple that looked very similar. When I later wanted to order a glass, I apparently picked the wrong one, but none of them were horrible so that was OK. I also ordered the small charcuterie plate, which was a perfect snack plate. Some of our party ordered flatbreads and wraps, which also looked really good, so I would definitely try this place again. This place doesn't seem like they're that good at accommodating large groups as they only have small round tables they had pushed together, but we made it work. They seemed a bit understaffed for a Saturday afternoon. If you like sweet wines, my favorite was the Sweet Purple Lady, followed by Blackberry. I took a bottle home.
