Lyft Announces Chicago's Top Destinations Of 2017

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Are you someone who made a popular Chicago spot a top destination?

Lyft, a rideshare company, announced the winners of its third annual Lyftie Awards, otherwise known as top destinations based off of passenger drop-offs that fall under categories such as most visited restaurant or event venue in the city.

To no surprise, Au Cheval was named the top destination under the "Only in Chicago" category. Visiters can expect a line at the "au"-so-popular Chicago burger mecca.

And trending both in Chicago and for a Lyft drop-off is River North restaurant and coffee house, Beatrix. It describes itself as the "new healthy" offering a variety of options, coffee and pastries.
