24 Hour Gyros

Post #1 - October 4th, 2010, 8:10 amLately I've had a hankering for gyros. After working a wedding Saturday at the Botanic Garden (yes, including an outdoor reception, coatless, in 45 degree weather) I decided I deserved a gyros when I got out. But when after walking light years from the venue to the parking lot, it was about 10:30 at night, and I couldn't think of a place open that late, especially not in those parts. On the way back to the 'hood, I passed Papa Chris (closed) and I figured I might as well check out Nick's on Harlem & Touhy, but it was also closed.
What gyros places are open at least til Midnight, especially out towards the 'burbs? Discount any family restaurants that have gyros on the menu, those places are never quite the same as fast food.
Thanks!

Post #3 - October 4th, 2010, 12:35 pmNot 24 hours, but Hub's in Skokie (3727 W. Dempster Ave.) might squeeze in under your other criteria if you're really craving gyros.... It's open until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays."Life is a combination of magic and pasta." -- Federico Fellini

It seems there's been a divorce and Mr Gyros is on his own now.

While I do love me some Suzie's, their gyro meat comes from frozen strips.When I grow up, I'm going to Bovine University!
