If you've driven down Rockland Road in Lake Bluff, just east of Waukegan Road, chances are you've noticed a unique building. Resembling a ramshackle train depot with a giant grain silo, "The Silo," is a spot where you'll find good fodder for you and the whole family.
As the exterior would suggest, the interior is comfortable and casual. The Silo has been a popular spot in the North Shore for decades, and the bustling and casual atmosphere make it the perfect spot for a meal with children. Ask to be seated in the center of the first floor dining area, where a model train circles overhead. The Silo serves American standards like burgers, pasta, sandwiches, ribs, etc. but they are best known for their pan pizza which is even available with a gluten-free crust. Now I have to admit, I committed a sin on my first visit and didn't try the pizza. When I returned home from my lunch with the kids, my husband who has frequented The Silo for business lunches berated me. Apparently, you should not make the same mistake either. Their pizza has received many accolades, and not just from my disappointed husband.
