About

The Local Tourist is Chicago's neighborhood website. It's a business directory, an events calendar, a blog, a review site, and an online community. We invite both residents and visitors to explore the city with passion and excitement. Our official motto is "Experience the fascination of a tourist; Feel the comfort of the local."

Our unofficial one?

"We tell people where to go."

It's that quirky, irreverent tone that keeps people coming back again and again. It engenders trust, and our audience listens when we suggest places to go, things to do, and people to meet. Our goal is to have everyone saying "I'm a Local Tourist!"

  • Key Differentiator
    The Local Tourist, or TLT as it's affectionately known, is your one-stop-spot for things to do, events, restaurants, nightlife, news, reviews, photos, videos - you name it, we've got it. We're a business directory, an events calendar, a multi-contributor magazine filled with news from our TLTeam of city experts. We showcase local restaurants with our Chef's Table events, and we introduce you to amazing craft brews with AlphaBeer. We're for you, and we're also by you. As a Local Tourist you can add businesses and events and specials and photos and videos and blog posts. You can keep a map of the places you've been; plan an itinerary of where you want to go. You can see your fellow Local Tourists, and soon, connect with them. We like to say we tell people where to go, and with our ratings and reviews, you can tell them where to go, too! We are your Online Guide for your Offline Life. We are The Local Tourist. And so are you.
