I never hung out in the Loop until I moved closer to the area, but it is definitely an interesting place to hang out in. I recommend going to Fitz's in the early evening, and then afterwards, walk around in the Loop and visit some of the unique stores. If nothing else, it is fun to just people watch. I have been to Fitz's several times, and it is a nice change of pace. Only once was I able to watch them bottle Fitz's while I ate, and it was really neat! If you dont want to eat there, try one of their root beer floats! They are amazing!!
Pros: Inexpensive, Interesting location
