Réjane T

I KNOW this might be bachelorette party central but having music from the 60s-present playing between two floors is more than enough compensation if you come here NOT SOBER. Drink first.

Redeye Chicago

Division Street’s hub for late-night dancing lies just a few steps south of the main drag on Elm and celebrated its 40th anniversary this year. Read more

Allison Kaminski

If you want to dance come here!!! Current music is upstairs and 70s/80s music is downstairs. There will most likely be $5 cover fee

Gonigondla Anirudh

Music , people, staff and almost everything

Josh Scianna

1st floor plays top 40 and the basement plays throwback tracks . Don’t go if you are the least bit claustrophobic.

L K

The line moves faster than the bouncers say. Don't pay $20 to skip the "30 minute" line . It's really 10 minutes.

Nick Barella

Oldies music in the basement

Calvin Multanen

Fun vibe, multiple levels

Sandeep C.

Try not to go here past 2:30am, because it's one of the few places open...it gets impossibly packed.

Dave Bojanzyk

Decent prices. The dance floor is loaded!

Kenny Ugel

Loud and sloppy make for a fun late night . Always a long line and ridiculous cover.

Adam Johnson

Be sure to check out Chicago's best new party bar around the corner at 9 West Division St... Detention!!

Don't get out of line . Otherwise douchebags will not let you reclaim your place even with your friends waiting for you. #failcity

David Spearman

Four letters too long and a four letter word too awful.

Jillian Burnickas

This place is a pit, absolutely disgusting.

Bob Parrish

This place blows! Waitress from Hell!

Ryan Hulett

Hangge-Uppe = Awesome!

Open till 4AM, but don't wait until other bars close to get in line . Bouncers are extra pushy here too.

Clicky Coyote
