Whether you work late, stay out late, or just get hungry late — we’ve all had that moment where we need some after-hours snacks. We’ve got your back with five late-night pit stops to feed you after bedtime.

🍕 Uncle Vito’s, 1800 15th St., Ste. E

Stop by 10-11 p.m. for the restaurant’s late-night happy hour to snag a slice of NY-style pizza and a beer for only $7 total.

🍩 Marie’s Donuts, 2950 Freeport Blvd.

Marie’s opens at 11 p.m., meaning its freshest pastries are available to pick up just before you turn in for the night.

🥩 The Butterscotch Den, 3406 Broadway

Grill your own steak at this Oak Park cocktail bar, open until 2 a.m. every night. Reservations are also available on Friday and Saturdays.

🍔 Willie’s Burgers, 2415 16th St.

The original Willie’s location is open until 3 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays — making it a great place to put something in your stomach while you’re in that twilight zone between the bar closing and your front door opening.

🌯 Carolina’s Mexican Food, 3840 Franklin Blvd.

If you’re really nice to your Uber driver (and offer to buy them a California burrito) they just might swing by the drive-thru of this 24-hour taco shop.
