- New CassettesOctober 25, 2012You get really looked after here backstage. sound engineer was great, great quality on and off stage. Nice food too, salads were great, makes a change from your normal bar burgers
- Bottom LoungeNovember 6, 2014Park for free at Bottom Lounge on Blackhawks game days! Enjoy a bite to eat and some drinks before catching a ride on the free bus to the UC for the game! Bus starts rolling 1 hour before puck drop.
- Amy ThompsonOctober 7, 2010$3 Schlitz drafts, $4 PBR tall boys, and a pretty nice craft/import list in the bar. As a shorty, I appreciate that I can ALWAYS see the stage. Plus, there is pinball. Wins all around.Upvoted 3 weeks ago
- Catherine GomezOctober 26, 2015Great place to see a show. Very clean and friendly staff. Sound system is great. Only downfall is security is so uptight. You're supposed to have fun at a show not be kicked out for small stuff.
- They do an awesome job of separating the music from the food and drink, which gives the whole venue an air of cleanliness.
- Jonathan FerreraOctober 21, 2015Came here for a fashion show. The beer menu was pretty good and it wasn't too crowded. You can barely hear the CTA Green Line just outside over the music and partying.
- keidra chaneyMay 2, 2011FANTASTIC beer selection. Great venue. Cool security (ie, they don't mind stage diving, if you are into that) Veggie food for veggie folks. If it's super late and you need a cab, call American or Yell
- Jonny FletcherMarch 2, 2014One of my favorite venues in Chicago. Great Beer Selection. Friendly staff. Motherfucking Bobby Orr pinball.
- Crystal FauntJanuary 10, 2016Great venue to get intimate with your favorite band. No rail up in front. Really chill atmosphere.
- Natalie QuamJanuary 6, 2015Great beer selection and nice small/mid size venue for concerts. Prices aren't bad either.
- Small venue but decent space. You can get up close to the band if you want!
- Mike AJune 1, 2011Go upstairs and play pinball. They have four games, Creature From the Black Lagoon, Gilligans Island, Champion Pub Fighter & Addams Family...all in decent shape!
- Ali MistrettaJuly 27, 2014Awesome venue with great visibility no matter where you are, which is great for people who are short like me!
- ChicagoistAugust 1, 2014There's plenty of space to move around and find your ideal viewing spot even when it’s a full house. Read more
- ash. anz.July 15, 2012get the Belgian frites w/ aioli sauce & parmesan cheese; the best friends a fry could have
- Matt Spudart MaldreJuly 13, 2012Play pinball: Bobby Orr Power Play, Champion Pub, Creature from the Black Lagoon, FunHouse, Gilligan's Island, Seawitch, The Addams Family
- Kristie Van PraagJune 9, 2013Impressively clean and large bathrooms. Def an upgrade from their old location on Belmont. KB approved!
- Even though this venue isn't downtown downtown there is plenty of ways to get to it! First, there is plenty of street parking. Second, a CTA line runs right by the venue.
- Alex DobyanJune 5, 2015Definitely a cool concert space, didn't spend much time out front but the beer selection in the back was better than expected.
- Kickass Grilled cheese is where it's at if you're ordering food. Plus, it comes w/ some awesome tomatoe soup.
- The Veggie Better Burger is a great addition to the menu.
- RCRD LBLJune 29, 2011Nosh on delish edibles while listening to bands like Blonde Redhead and !!!. For best acoustics, snag a spot in the center of the room.
- Amy GraffApril 10, 2013Belgian frites with fried egg and basil aioli. Oh, and-- I guess-- live music.
- SweetCaroline NewmanDecember 8, 2013Amazing beer selections and the front bar has super cute bartenders :)
- T CallahanNovember 20, 2014Nice having 2 rooms for live music as well as a separate main bar for whatever mood.
- Mari WitzigreuterApril 13, 2011Awesome place to watch a show, I saw Hellogoodbye & The ready set along with other opening bands. :) Great staff too!
- Order a Schlitz and use the two quarters from your change to play pinball.
- Decibel MagazineDecember 10, 2010On 02/22/2011 the Decibel sponsored All Shall Fall U.S. Tour stops here! The Tour features Immortal and Absu! Go support the bands!
- Adam SegerSeptember 9, 2011Jaegger is for Freshmen. Try a chilled shot of locally-made 70 Proof hum, The World's Most Unique Rum.
- For a lot of shows, the security guys will have people waiting outside to get in. If it's cold/rainy/whatever, just tell them you're there to get something to eat and you can wait inside.
- Moses McfeelyApril 21, 2012Photo booth, good beer selection, and the best crowd! Shame on you if you missed it.
- chris behmAugust 20, 2010Only tip you need to know is how amazing the back rooftop balcony is on a summer night. Best place to enjoy a cold beer IMO
- Great place to catch a show, great beer list. If you work in the loop, grab a bite and then a show.
- Great place to see a show and watch blackhawks games! Also, try the black bean burger it's amazing!
- Clare LintzenichMarch 18, 2012Sucks that they don't allow stage diving or crowd surfing. Pretty good place to see a show, regardless.
