Nestled on the North Shore, Evanston is an idyllic place where culture, nature, and charm merge seamlessly. While getting your air conditioning serviced or maintained might lead you to some downtime, why not use it to enjoy what Evanston has to offer?

Stroll Around Northwestern University

Soaking in the Gothic architecture structures, the beautiful lake views, and the tranquil atmosphere at Northwestern University is a perfect way to spend a sunny afternoon. Don’t forget to pay a visit to The Block Museum of Art, where various exhibitions span multiple cultures, eras, and media.

Evanston’s lively artistic scene isn’t limited to the University zone. Dip in the city’s vibrant aura by zoing various live performance theatres. The Piccolo Theatre or the Noise Theatre are both prominent options to consider.

Enjoy at the Wineries and Breweries

What better way to ease off the heat than tasting some chilled craft beers or wines? “Sketchbook Brewing Co.” or the “FEW Spirits Distillery” are local favorites within the bustling Evanston’s craft beer and spirits scene (source).

For more of a dining experience, Union Pizzeria and Space is a delightful junction offering live music events coupled with scrumptious pizza and drinks. Families can also enjoy at the vibrant restaurants and cafes that Evanston proudly hosts, Staples like the Brothers K Coffeehouse or Koi Fine Asian Cuisine and Lounge are well-loved for their ambiance and menu.

Connect with Nature

If you’re a fan of the great outdoors, the Ladd Arboretum and Grosse Point Lighthouse are must-visit spots. The 23 acre Ladd Arboretum features manicured gardens and a variety of flora and fauna that provide an enriching experience.

To wrap up your day, a sumptuous dinner by Lake Michigan’s views as a backdrop would make it a day well spent while your air conditioning maintenance at Guardian Heating & Cooling counts the hours.
