Noble Square is a small pocket of a neighborhood surrounded by more notable areas such as Wicker Park and Ukrainian Village. The streets remain primarily residential, while the busy avenues of Chicago and Grand offer a variety of dining, shopping and nightlife options. People come from all over the city to experience the unique restaurants in Noble Square that have become all the rage in Chicago. A testament to Noble Square's culinary popularity: Some of these places are booked a month in advance for the weekends, and no matter what night you go out, there is bound to be a throng of hungry Chicagoans enjoying the neighborhood's eclectic menu choices. After dinner, the focus turns toward Noble Square's spirited watering holes. There are a good number of casual sports bars, the kind with pool tables and giant TVs for watching a game. For more cultural evening entertainment, the Chopin Theatre is known for its edgy performances that include every form of expression from poetry readings and films to plays and live music.
