Joe's BeBop Cafe is your typical summer tourist magnet for the crowds that visit Navy Pier. My husband and I visited during a weekday evening in the fall when the Pier was less than hopping. The service was adequate, but you could tell the wait staff just wanted to give us our food and clear our table-- tourist mentality. Our food was okay, but nothing spectacular. For the price, it was expensive, but it's hard to find a cheap eat on Navy Pier. Just as we were finishing up, some musicians took their place on the stage and started up a lovely jazz rendition of the M*A*S*H theme song. Perhaps if they were playing throughout the entire meal, it would have seemed a little more worth the price.
I suggest coming and ordering an appetizer or two and enjoying the jazz.
