Don't hesitate, though it may seem silly ordering food where you blacked out the night before with drag queens and ridiculous out-of-towners. Food is really good and the people watching great.

Daniel Ley

We may have only visited here so opinion is biased... but what a fantastic club. Great music , plenty of bars to buy drinks from and not overcrowded.

"BYGG D." MuscleDude

Super fun place but Be careful if you are young and hot, you face the chance of having something slipped in your drink. This is where the is possible. Have fun and be safe.

Dustin Haley

Great for dancing , small but quaint patio , Sunday’s get crazy during kickball season. Dollar beers and free burgers .

Clementine Mottola

Pool to play. Delicious 12$ cosmopolitan pitchers ? YES PLEASE! We changed the music to dance . Jack the bartender is great! Also bartender with same bahumbug hat I have (drunk & forgot his name :(

nemo serges

We went there on a Sunday night and it was great. It wasn't too packed, they had a good selection of music playing and the dance floor wasn't too crowded .

Khari Shelton

they must have a new burger recipe because the free burgers on sunday are so good. also the fries they have are *chef 's kiss*

Had both good and bad mixed memories here. But they're all great stories. You'll have yours too. #fav

Matthew Patterson

Rickey is awesome.. Ask him to make you a Long Island .. You will love it

Clementine Mottola

Look out for the aggressive dog owners who tied their dog up outside for over 6 hours outside in 30 degree weather while they bar hopped! Crazy Chicago police wouldnt do anything.

Donnie Weatherbee

This bar plays the best music . And not just top 40! Music for everyone :)

Jason T

Good popcorn earlier in the night. Draft beer is good. ....and the vodka pitchers will erase your memory!

Monica Beverly Hillz

Always Fun, catching new talent and sometimes performing on Tuesdays for the drag contest ! Getting that Coin :)

Daniel McCoy

Great spot to observe the homosexual mating rituals of the intoxicated unattractive middle-aged homosapien.

Redeye Chicago

Home to a super-packed dance floor , pitchers of cocktails and a pool table . Read more

Whoever said the pink lemonade pitcher will make you cannot drink. Week! All the pitchers are week.

Phoenix Jimenez

1.00 beer on Sundays!

Andrew Bristow

Nice that it has a dance floor and a an actual bar space

Patrick LeMaster

Avoid the pitchers if you wish to live! Though they are quite tasty and cheap ....

Raymond Arturo

Great music : more of a bar atmosphere than a club

Trey Harrison

The heavyset door man with bottle glasses likes to turn away people who trip on the steps… so don’t trip on the steps! Or he will think you’re drunk.

Jason T

I love their burgers , mini corn dogs , and frozen drinks ! Good beer on tap too.

ᴡ Achatz

Tons of fun, and a lively dance floor ...no complaints other than the long bathroom line and the bartender clearly not knowing how to make a sex on the beach .

Keep your personal belongings close. Major pick pocketing going on there, especially on the dance floor in the back.

Drinks on the rocks are served in bathroom mouthwash cups. Failure. Am I a munchkin in Oz?
