Great places for shopping in Chicago in February (updated in 2025)

"Macy's on State Street is a very famous department store in Chicago. It has Chanel, Hugo Boss, and LACOSTE. It is worth a visit. My colleague bought a pair of NB shoes for a very cheap price. The people I met here are very warm and cheerful, and even my mood improved a lot."

"Although it is a steak restaurant, the oysters here are also delicious. I couldn't stop eating their oysters after trying one bite. There was no fishy smell at all. The beef really had a meaty aroma."

"Chicago's famous shopping center is the Chicago Water Tower. It is worth seeing. The price is much cheaper than Mile Mall. There are too many shopping malls on Michigan Avenue. Every floor is very mini. There are only 3 to 5 larger shops with about 5 small shops."

"We gained a lot in Bloomingdale's. The cheapness of COACH here is unquestionable, and the styles are definitely newer than those in outlets. It is also more reassuring to buy than in outlets."

"Macy's is a famous department store that you cannot miss when you come to Chicago. Although this branch is not as big as other ones, it is big enough to satisfy our shopping needs. We even bought a piece of clothing."

"There are many new models, bright colors and sloppy. The classic style is very distinctive. The bottom is exquisitely crafted."

"We were a large group and had lots to choose from. We ordered the double lobster roll from DaLobsta - very nice but heard the singles are small - the doubles are more and more expensive. Ordered the potato pudding - not really worth it; two desserts from Vanille Patisserie - one was called Winnie which I thought was super good, honey and mousse, amazing! The other was chocolate and hazelnut - very light and rich. Also had some blue frost which was nice."

"Need to buy in discount season, no tax can be refunded."

"There are many luxury brands in this shopping mall in Chicago. I happened to see the Louis Vuitton bag that I have always liked, and finally bought one."
