The Hottest Destinations In Chicago, Now According To Lyft

Lyft has fearlessly followed in Uber’s footsteps and shared their list of the top rider destinations in Chicago in 2015. (The fact both announcements came out on the same day has made full-blown conspiracy theorists of us.)
However, Lyft took a slightly different tack, framing their list as “The Lyfties,” which they call “the first annual awards program that celebrates local hot spots with the most Lyft passenger drop-offs.”
Though they did not try very hard with the name “Lyfties,” their list is more interesting than Uber's. The Lyft analytsts broke things down by categories, producing slightly fresher conclusions like “Big Star is a literal big star” and “people went to Wrigley Field more than Soldier Field, even though One Direction and Taylor Swift played Soldier Field this year."
Uber’s list, meanwhile, is roughly the top 10 results if you Google “Chicago stuff.”
In conclusion, here are the Lyfties:
Most Visited Restaurant
Big Star
Most Visited Bar
Roscoe’s
Most Visited Event Venue
Wrigley Field
Most Visited Transit Station
Union Station
Most Visited Deep Dish Spot
Pequod's Pizza
