| - I visited the Wrigley Mansion with my daughters to have lunch and celebrate their birthdays. We had just joined the Club for the very reasonable price of $15 annual, and as a member received free valet parking. The valet was a pleasant and professional young man, who opened our doors, provided a valet ticket, and directed us to the entrance. Once inside we were promptly greeted and brought to Geordie's for lunch at a lovely window table with a great view.
Debby, the manager, waited on us. I informed her it was my daughter's birthday today, and my other daughter's birthday was yesterday, 17 years apart. We ordered beverages and a margherita pizza to share, and would order something more later, if needed. The pizza was amazing, with plenty of mozzarella, slices of heirloom tomatoes, basil and sauce on a wonderful crust. My youngest said it was the best pizza she had ever eaten! (and she's had Pizzeria Bianco several times!) We ate only half the pizza and wanted to take the rest to go. Debby was very professional yet also fun and personable. To our surprise, she brought out a slice of chocolate cake with Happy Birthday beautifully written on the large white plate. The girls were thrilled, blowing out the candle together.
After our wonderful meal and time spent at Geordie's, we enjoyed walking around the museum like mansion. Many of the ceilings are beautifully elaborate and colorful, and the views of the city are fantastic.
Visiting the Wrigley Mansion was definitely a highlight to our special day together!
