Adler Planetarium 🌌🔭
Hey there, fellow Chicago explorer! If you're planning a visit to the Adler Planetarium, I’ve got you covered with some insider tips and handy info to make your trip even more awesome. Let’s dive right in! 🚀
1. Google Maps Link 🗺️
Here’s your quick link to Adler Planetarium on Google Maps: Adler Planetarium
2. Nearest Subway Station 🚇
The closest "L" train stop is Roosevelt Station (Red, Orange, and Green lines), about a 20-minute walk from the planetarium. If you're not up for the walk, you can grab a bus (the 146 Inner Drive/Michigan Express takes you right there).
3. Great Places to Eat, Drink & Grab Coffee Nearby 🍴☕
You’ll definitely work up an appetite exploring the wonders of the universe, so here are my top spots around the area:
- The Field Bistro (inside the Field Museum) 🥗🍔: Right next door, with sandwiches, salads, and drinks, this is perfect if you want to keep the museum vibe going!
- Yolk - South Loop 🍳🥞: Just a bit north of Adler, Yolk is known for its hearty breakfasts and brunches—ideal for fueling up before your visit.
- Giordano's 🍕: Deep dish pizza, anyone? You're in Chicago, so why not! Located a bit further up the loop, but it's worth it for a cheesy, satisfying meal.
- Cafe Society ☕: A cozy café near Roosevelt station with great coffee, pastries, and breakfast options.
4. Best Photo Spots 📸
Capture the moment with these perfect photo-op locations:
- Skyline Views 🌆: Step outside the planetarium onto the lakefront path for a jaw-dropping panorama of Chicago’s skyline—it’s iconic!
- Northerly Island Park 🌿: Just a short walk south, this peaceful park offers stunning lake views and is a quieter spot for some reflective moments.
- Outside the Planetarium with the Dome 🌙: You can’t leave without snapping a shot in front of the planetarium’s dome! It’s one of the coolest backdrops for your space-inspired selfies.
5. Opening Times ⏰
Adler Planetarium is typically open:
- Monday to Friday: 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM

6. Insider Tips 🤫
- Best Time to Visit 🌅: Try going in the late afternoon, and you might catch a beautiful sunset over Lake Michigan just after your visit. Plus, it's usually a bit quieter than the mornings!
- Bundle Your Tickets 🎟️: If you’re planning on visiting other museums nearby (like the Shedd Aquarium or Field Museum), look into combo tickets or the Chicago CityPASS for discounts.
7. Hidden Gem 💎
Northerly Island’s Nature Area 🦋: Most people don't realize there's a peaceful nature preserve just a short walk from Adler. This hidden oasis offers walking trails, native plants, and even a chance to spot some local wildlife! Perfect for some quiet time after your visit.
8. Public Bathrooms Nearby 🚻
