Cool place to see a show. Cozy. Small, low ceiling, and narrow. Yet acoustics were great for our show Pacific Dub and Blue Beam. Had to go to front bar to purchase drinks, which was no big deal. Restroom is down stairs. We didn't find it to difficult to find free parking that Friday night. Front bar staff were friendly.

Bearded security guy and staff was rlly weird and hostile to me and my friend the entire time we were there, idk if it was bc we were women… kicked me out for drinking even tho im 21 and had a wristband and PAID THEM for the show. bouncer looked at my ID for super super long and was sus of me even tho I had both my drivers license and state id. we went to another house show at bricktown with women fronted bands 2 min away and had a much better night. house shows are supposed to be for everyone not weird ppl on power trips

Went here to see That One Guy in concert. Fantastic small venue for a kickin’ show. Also had dinner and a beer, great selection of draft beers. The blackened catfish sandwich was out of this world, and my wife’s burger was well seasoned and very satisfying. I highly recommend the Cajun potatoes over fries. Servers were kind and polite.Parking: Circle the block a bit. It’s a safe neighborhood and parking a couple blocks away wasn’t a problem, the walk was very nice.

The door man with a beard was very rude and disrespectful. He should watch how he acts. I would avoid this place cause of the staff. Out of all the places that have live music in Chicago this is one of the worst spots I’ve been to.
I saw That1Guy here and it was a BLAST. We didnt have food, but the drinks were good. It's a very nice intimate venue with enough room inside to have your own bubble. Other concertgoers were very pleasant and respectful and the staff was

Beat kitchen is a cool restaurant-bar-music venue. Great concept cool atmosphere. The Bald bartender with grey beard had a good vibe and the music gave a good atmosphere.

Place a order of pizzas for a party, pizzas where done right on time and service was great.
$70 on Eventbrite for their NYE party tonight and we didn’t even need tickets. Nothing is included, by the way. Makes absolutely no sense, people got in without Eventbrite. What exactly was the point? We asked the bouncer if anything was included and he said yeah there’s nothing. We left right away because a lot of other spots are actually offering something for the ticket price. Even a midnight toast, anything lol what a waste of time. They had a DJ so I guess we were paying concert ticket prices. I would not recommend this spot. Unless you willing would like to waste your money for a subpar bar atmosphere.

Cool casual atmosphere. Good music. Not many seats so get there early. bring your friends. The crowds quite mixed.
