Default where to go in Chicago!!

I'll be around O'hare on May 5th. My 3 day excursion has been whittled to about 36 hours so I've only got a small window to find a good place to have lunch around the airport. I'll also be driving back through IN so Three Floyds is definitely in the running for the return trip. Anyplace good around the airport?

It's not real close to the airport, but The Map Room is probably the best beer bar that I've ever been to. Amazing selection. Google it for directions and website.

The Hop Leaf is great as well. Belgian paradise!

Thank you Gentlemen. Both places look very promising.

Neither place is really NEAR O'Hare, though.

The closest place would probably be the Ram in Rosemont. It's a chain, but not bad. The Ram Rosemont
