Our Edgewater neighborhood is booming. New bakeries, restaurants and apartment complexes are popping up and there’s overall improvement of the streets and open areas. This is both exciting and scary at the same time, considering your rent is definitively going up next year and you’re too in love with the place to move out.
Ethnically diverse and perfectly located by the lake where Lincoln Park ends, Edgewater is no longer underrated. It’s trending. (Hipsters are moving in!)
A good sign of this progress is Lickety Split’s new pop-up concept at the historic “Pink Building” or what used to be the Edgewater Beach Hotel, built in 1916. Every Friday, the local ice cream parlor will be taking over the old flower shop at the building hoping to encourage other business owners to get creative in their strategy to revive the neighborhood.
Lickety Split’s pop up will also be joined by different food trucks every Friday by the corner of Sheridan and Bryn Mawr.
We stopped by last Friday for some delicious custard and street tacos from La Patrona. There were also sweets from Auntie Vee’s, pie from Da Pizza Dude or doggie treats from 6 Mutts. And while it was still a bit too cold to be outside, there was plenty of space inside the pop up to stay warm and enjoy your awesome food.
Here’s a super quick vid. Hope to see some of you around next time.

Edgewater sigue creciendo. Seguimos viendo nuevas reposterías, restaurantes y complejos de apartamentos nuevos en nuestra comunidad, al igual que mejoramiento de los espacios abiertos y calles. Esto nos emociona y nos asusta a la vez, considerando que seguramente los precios de alquiler van a subir. Aún así, estamos demasiado encantados con este lugar como para movernos.
Lickety Split Pop Up & Food Truck Fridays
Edgewater goza de diversidad cultural y está perfectamente localizado al lado del lago Michigan donde termina Lincoln Park. Aunque por mucho tiempo se subestimó su valor, ahora es el sitio de moda. ¡Todos los hipsters se están mudando acá!
Una buena señal de progreso es la tienda pop up que abrió Lickety Split en el edificio histórico conocido como “Pink Building” o lo que era antes el Edgewater Beach Hotel, construido en 1916. Cada viernes, la heladería local estará vendiendo su delicioso custard en la vieja floristería del edificio para motivar a otros empresarios del área a ponerse creativos en su estrategia para revivir la comunidad.
A Lickety Split se le sumarán también diferentes food trucks cada viernes en la esquina entre Sheridan y Bryn Mawr.
Nosotros nos dimos la vuelta para probar el helado y los deliciosos tacos de La Patrona. Además, habían dulces de Auntie Vee’s, pizza de Da Pizza Dude y comida para perro de 6 Mutts. Aunque todavía estaba un poco frío para salir a comer afuera, había suficiente espacio dentro del pop up para mantenerse caliente y disfrutar de buena comida.
