"This iconic ice cream shop is over a hundred years old, and it looks like it. Margie’s channels the old-school charm of an era where ice cream wasn’t topped with olive oil and flaky salt, but with generous pours of classic hot fudge from gravy boats old enough to have grandchildren. Enjoy a milkshake underneath their bright neon sign outside, or cram into a vintage naugahyde booth while tackling their 25-scoop sundae with friends. By scoop two, you might get so caught up in the whole Margie’s experience that you let out a spontaneous “Ah, Chicago.” " - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
