Let’s take a look at what Skokie visitors voted as the best five “things to do” in the village.

1. Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center: Reviewer from Wisconsin states: “I have done a lot of personal study of the Holocaust, but I learned new things on this visit. Wonderful architectural tour...learned things I would not have been able to notice myself. Highly recommend the survivor talk. Staff and volunteers were very helpful.”
2. Adagio Teas: Reviewer from Hoffman Estates states: “We did a tea tasting there today and had a lovely time. We were able to pick 3 teas that were steeped for us as we waited and were told amazing facts about different teas, as well as herbal blends, The chocolate with tea blends acted as a "palate cleanser" between one course and tea infused tea biscuits between the other.”
3. Westfield Old Orchard Center: Reviewer from Chicago states: “Been coming to this mall since my daughter was born they have everything you need here.”
4. North Shore Center for the Performing Arts: Reviewer from Chicago states: “This theatre was great. Seats are nice size, not as cramped as some places. Venue has an almost intimate feel to it, views of stage are unobstructed throughout. Good sound.”
5. Schaefer’s Wines and Liquors: Reviewer from Evanston states: “Great deals. Stock up for 6 months with $20 bottles for $10 or less. And easy to taste and get help to your car.”
