My favorite cuban restaurant is right up Armitage (west of Western). Order the special. It's BYOB.. you can bring a bottle of wine and they have wonderful sangria mix for a pitcher ! Great vibe anytime of day or night. There is usually a bit of a wait in the evening.. but they have waiting areas where you can enjoy your wine or sangria while you wait. Great for larger groups.

This is a great spot to grab specialty food items, foodie gifts, or just coffee and a meal ! They have a rooftop patio that is great for warmer days. You can also hook up to wifi here and work upstairs (indoor space also). They have a nice menu for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Ala Carte. I like to jump on the 606 trail (take a left on the 606) and then exit on Damen and take a right until you get to Wabansia. A fun walking short cut ; )

The owners actually stayed in my Airbnb when seeking permits to open. An awesome couple that brought the idea from an old school shuffle board club they fell in love with in Florida. Their first one opened in Brooklyn several years ago. Def. worth checking out and learning the game!! Fun atmosphere w food trucks and roof deck.
