Lounges near Lombard, IL

“Richard, the bartender, server, & all around fantastic human being at Stacks Grilled Cheese and Bar within the hotel provided exceptional service. Worth the stay alone to meet someone who takes such great care of his customers. What a rarity.“

“The American Airlines Flagship Lounge at Chicago O’Hare is a good improvement and overall a positive experience. The shower facilities were a particularly pleasant upgrade and very much appreciated before a long-haul flight. That said, the lounge is already showing some wear for its age and could use a little attention in a few areas. It was also generally very packed during my visit, which takes away somewhat from the premium lounge experience. Overall, though, a solid lounge with good amenities, and the improved shower facilities were definitely a highlight.“

“There are very few places that you attend where you can honestly say every experience was better than the last. Everything from the cocktaisl to desert was amazing and each server has their own unique way of making you feel as if their world is revolving around the needs of the customer. I dine out regularly, and never come away thinking that I was actually happy to have paid for a dinner, but not with Eddie V. You Can talk the talk, if you can walk it, and they can!!“

“We recently saw Nonsense here. The show was great. The set was designed well. The seats were comfortable, but being short, it was a good thing no one sat in front of us, or it would have been difficult to see. This is a beautiful theatre, and I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. My only complaint is that I do think tickets are overpriced. They're charging the same prices as downtown shows, and the theatre is not worth the price.“

“June 7, 2026 nice venue, food presentation was good, but food was terrible. 70 percent of the guests food barely had taken a bite , steak was still alive, chicken was dry. for the amount of money that was spent for such a large crowd, management and chef should be ashamed of themselves“

“Outstanding food. Phenomenal service. Adelle's is my go to!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Experience at Paisans Pizzeria! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Paisans Pizzeria, and a big reason for that was our waiter, Tony. From the moment we sat down, Tony was attentive, personable, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. The food was excellent — fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you expect from a top-notch pizzeria. Service was quick without feeling rushed, and the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting. If you’re going to Paisans, ask for Tony — he truly takes the experience to another level. We’ll definitely be back! 🍕👏“

“The Admirals Club (ORD Terminal 3): My Layover Oasis of Luxury (and Free Snacks)

Ah, the Admirals Club at Chicago O'Hare Terminal 3. Forget delayed flights and screaming children, this place is my airport sanctuary. It's like stepping into a parallel universe where travel is actually enjoyable.

First, the food. Gone are the days of sad, soggy airport sandwiches. Here, we're talking gourmet salads, artisan cheeses, and hot dishes that actually look appetizing. I practically sprinted past those overpriced Auntie Anne's pretzels to get to this buffet. And the best part? It's all free. (Well, technically included in the membership fee, but let's not get bogged down in details.)

Then there's the drinks. Forget those mini bottles of questionable wine. The Admirals Club boasts a full bar with top-shelf liquor, craft beers, and even a decent selection of wines. And the bartenders? They're like mixology magicians, whipping up cocktails that would make James Bond proud. I may or may not have had one too many "Mile High Margaritas" before my last flight.

But the real MVPs are the staff. They're like a team of hospitality ninjas, anticipating your every need before you even realize you have one. Need a charger for your phone? They've got you covered. Want a quiet corner to catch up on emails? They'll point you in the right direction. They even managed to track down a rare bottle of sparkling water for my ridiculously picky travel companion.

And let's not forget the views. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of the tarmac, where you can watch planes take off and land while sipping your mimosa. It's strangely mesmerizing, like a live-action air traffic control simulator.

The only downside? Leaving the Admirals Club and actually boarding my flight. It's like being ripped from a blissful dream and thrust back into the harsh reality of economy class. But hey, at least I have the memories (and maybe a slight hangover) to keep me company.“

“My waitress was excellent! I think she said her name was Chanté. I thought the food was really good too. I tried the Buffalo wings and Fritto Misto (calamari).“

“My husband and I had an exceptional experience at the hotel during a wedding weekend. The staff was incredibly accommodating, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the venue for the wedding was stunning. The attention to detail and top-notch service made it a truly memorable stay. I highly recommend this hotel for any special occasion or simply for a special getaway. Five stars!“

“Absolutely love this bar!! All the bartenders are total sweet hearts, the DJ even remembers your FAV go to karaoke songs, and we have more fun than ever when we randomly hit our "hometown townie bar" :). Thanks for always being so gracious to us!“

“Got my traditional pre-flight drink here on Monday. It was ~$14. There's limited seating at the bar itself. Not sure if you can take the drinks to the surrounding tables, though I assume you can. The bartender allowed me to bring food from the bakery and eat it at the bar. While I was gone he put a napkin over my drink. I love that! It's a little reminder to others that I'll be back and not to mess with my drink! Great place run by great people!“

“Great place to experience. A little private club“

“What a brilliantly managed and wonderfully pleasant location this truly is! Perfect place while waiting for the flight. I had an incredibly smooth and highly enjoyable time from the absolute second I arrived until the moment I finally left. It is rare to find a place that completely nails the fundamentals so perfectly. I give this spot my highest possible recommendation without a shadow of a doubt!“

“Love this place. Food and beverages are overpriced and they can crank up the a/c more otherwise I absolutely love the vibe and the staff is friendly. Definitely a classier jazz club. Not your average nightclub at all. The place is filled with nostalgia. Highly recommend! Note: the cover charges can be a little steep. Paid $15 just the other week. Still though, 2+ hours of live music and dancing is worth it to me given the atmosphere.“

“So fun to have dinner at such a classic hotel. The service was wonderful (Thank you Rigo and Fernando) and the space was beautiful- not generic or bland. Lots of gorgeous art work around and the food was fun too! We live fairly close by, but coming to the Drake for dinner feels like we're traveling somewhere far away.“
