    Spectacular views of a great city! Picturesque place to visit.. For Chicago residents you get 50% off general admission ticket which is awesome! It’s a nice place to just relax and enjoy at night, weekdays aren’t as busy staff are accommodating and friendly it’s worth the visit!

    360 Chicago great for both tourists and locals to see the city. While there we ran into few locals that just have not made it up to the observation deck before and were in awe of how nice the views of the city are. Bring a camera and get yourself a drink at the bar and enjoy the free music. I would give it 5 stars if the area had a better bar with some good food.
