“Like so many other residents in Park Ridge, @ho “Like so many other residents in Park Ridge, @holtsparkridge and @easystreetpizza are our family go-to spots. They both strike the perfect balance of being lively and fun for adults, but also super kid-friendly for my daughters.

But was it a great atmosphere (with fantastic food and specials) at the @howardstreetinn for an NFL Sunday? Sure was. 80 degrees on the patio as the sun set over Tam O’Shanter Golf Course was an added bonus.
