ErocFebruary 18, 2014Great happy hour! Nice selection of Craft beers and the Voodoo Shrimp is killer!
Kristina TriplettDecember 26, 2016Very nice atmosphere...just took pictures...going back at 3:00 pm for live show
Lindsay TemplemanAugust 7, 2014Great music venue, small in size so you are always close to the stage.
Tracy CrystalMarch 3, 2010Amazing venue for a concert! Small and intimate (at least compared to Northern California venues!) There's even a great view from the bar area!
Explore ChicagoJanuary 29, 2010Track down the sound that evolved from the Blues at the House of Blues' Gospel Brunch on Sundays, complimented by a Southern-inspired buffet and blues memorabilia on the walls. Read more
Dave GamblinApril 5, 2010Came for the Gospel Brunch, which is a really nice splurge, since you get entertainment and unlimited mimosas. Go back early and often for seconds and thirds.
Julie MestlingMarch 6, 2012TICKET GIVEAWAY TUESDAY- Come for lunch and leave with FREE tickets to select shows! Every Tuesday from 11:30am- 4:30pm.
Kyle JohansenMarch 27, 2017If you get balcony seats, get there early because there is close to zero room.
Just the right size venue to get up close sand still rock hard!
Bekah LaFountainFebruary 5, 2012Ask Neil for the Effin Bluecumber Martini!! Yummmm!! (I helped him establish it, but he perfected it!!)
Jennifer MulvihillAugust 4, 2013The manager Kelly is awesome! Give her a high five when you see her!
If you want to be in front, see if the artist has a deal for early entry or else eat in the restaurant beforehand for pass the line.
Shawna WilliamsApril 21, 2011If you are coming for a show, and buy gifts from the gift shop for a pass the line stamp, they only stamp 15 tickets!
Tony AldridgeAugust 8, 2011The sounds is fantastic no matter where you are, best to drink before you come. The drink prices are so high
Thompson HotelsJune 20, 2011Exclusive for our guests: Complimentary entry to most House of Blues Backporch concerts. Just present your Sax Chicago room key.
Bartenders in the Foundation Room Bar are awesome and will totally take care of you. Great place to hang out before shows or anytime.
Joseph DelhommerJanuary 31, 2010The ribs and the cornbread are amazing. It's definitely one of the best places to get these in Chicago.
Robert RhodesAugust 23, 2010Fun time at the Gospel brunch. Choir was excellent. Good food and all you can eat.
Joellen BurgerMarch 26, 2015I absolutely love you House of Blues! Check out Freebie today! Read more
