Can I walk out of Chicago Midway Airport (MDW)?

At Midway, walk to the CTA stop, then 
outside through the bus lanes onto 59th St.All Uber options show up there, address is 4618 W 59th. Maybe 50 yards 
farther than walking to the L.

Midway is very walkable, though there’s a good bit of traffic so the surrounding areas aren’t the nicest place to walk, but there are exits and sidewalks.

You might exit directly from the terminal onto Cicero, but there are few options where you could both wait comfortably in case of rain or snow or where a car could safely stop out of traffic.

A good option is to follow the signs to the CTA Station “Trains to City / Trains to Loop” (straight ahead as you exit the terminal, don’t forget to go downstairs right after you exit the secure area to get your check luggage, if any).

At the Midway CTA station you can exit to the bus boarding area, you can cross it to this parking lot (41.7852416,-87.7399196) that doesn’t have controlled access. This location is just down the street from the Chill With Us Yogurt Cafe but saves you having to cross the road.

Never been to Chicago Midway, but looking at satellite view on Google maps shows access from the airport into the CTA Midway subway station. The station is a couple hundred metres away from W59th street, and one of those cafes you mentioned seem to be just across the road from it:

So with my assumption being that if you can enter the subway station on foot you must also be able to exit it, I would say it seems you can walk out of Chicago Midway Airport to those Uber pickup spots.
