Amazing outing the vibes in here were amazing. There was amazing music and the staff was so courteous. When we sat at the bar our orders were immediately taken and made well. There were a few snacks behind the bar for purchase but we did not see a menu for food.

Had such a memorable experience here with my family. The staff was so sweet there was a gentleman at the front who really made our time here so enjoyable I wish I knew his name!! He gave my son a free golf coin for our next visit for playing so well. I will be coming back here very often. Amazing vibe with amazing staff truly one of the best affordable outings I’ve experienced in Chicago.

My friends and I happened to be in the area and as soon as we saw it was a mini putt place, we wanted to go! We looked around the area to kill time and arrived without a reservation as soon as it opened. No other players were there (Thursday at 4 pm) and it was so relaxing having the place to ourselves. We were also pleasantly surprised about the price as we arrived during happy hour and it was $8 a person! What a great deal! :) The staff were very kind and one of my friends got a boozy slushie since they were 50% off. After the last hole, you have a chance to win a free drink, free next game, or both if you get the ball in their respective holes! I ended up winning a free game and definitely want to come back again.

Great concept for a putt-putt course in a bar atmosphere. Our group had some beers and played miniature golf.

Fun concept: nine-hole indoor miniature golf with a bar. Staff is friendly. Golf course is surprisingly difficult. Having an indoor activity is great when it's cold or rainy. My foursome enjoyed the visit. They have several very interesting original cocktails. We didn't try them, but I suggest you take a look. Definitely not a place for kids, although I believe they are allowed during daytime hours.

Thank you, Hannah and Ryan! Kids very much wanted to golf on a day they were hosting a private party shortly thereafter and they made it work! Clean, fun and great for even young kids. Thank you again!

We had so much fun at Big Mini! My husband and I went for an early date around 12pm on a Saturday. When we arrived it was near empty which we didn't mind at all. We did the mini golf and the holes were all unique and very fun. It did not take us very long to get through it, but I think that's mainly because we didn't have to wait at all. We got a few different drinks at the bar and they truly have a surprisingly diverse cocktail menu. From cocktails and beer on draft, to specialty mixed drinks, and a full bar in general, there is something for everyone. Afterwards we played some retro video games, followed by some xl jenga and connect four. While they don't have food it looks like people were getting things delivered. We definitely would come back, even if we didn't want to mini golf and just wanted a fun space to hang out at!

Not as kid friendly as you'd hope. Had an awkward time on a Friday afternoon with some kids in tow. We had three moms enjoying some drinks and snacks and they micro managed and nickle and dimed us. There were only 6 other patrons and were made to feel like second class citizens for bringing kids.

Came for happy hour today (Friday) and it was absolutely amazing. Great vibes, AMAZING bartender and great customer service when coming into the place! 10/10 vibes!
Cute. Good beer selection (not all IPAs). Mini golf was fun for the small space it occupies. Good date spot. Good hangout spot. Space up front with longer tables for events too. Noice!

Make sure you book in advance on weekends because earlier tee times get full quickly. There are only 9 holes, so try and drag it out a bit or you will be done fast. There are small games like tic tac toe and connect four to do before or after you golf. There is no dim lighting so everyone can see you while you're playing. The drinks were amazing and you are allowed to carry them around as you golf (there are places to set them down at every hole). Good place to go for just drinks if you don't feel like playing.
