Pop juggernaut Lady Gaga has been spending plenty of time in the Windy City lately. (Her boyfriend, Chicago Fire’s Taylor Kinney, has been filming the NBC series here since last year.) You can catch her this month at the United Center, where she will stage her Born This Way Ball. Or simply hang out at any of these spots.

The pop star likes burgers and beer at Kuma’s Corner (2900 W. Belmont Ave.)—and even she waits for a seat.

Downtown
She and her BF have cozied up in the luxe suites at the Radisson Blu Aqua (221 N. Columbus Dr.).

Lincoln Park
The whiskey emporium that is Delilah’s (2771 N. Lincoln Ave.) is one of her favorite after-party places (see “The 100 Best Bars in Chicago”).
