Lounges near Niles, IL

“I recently visited the South Elgin location and it was very nice and clean. The host was very friendly. We will definitely be back soon!“

“everyone there is like family“

“We were looking for a nice place to get a drink that wasn’t crazy during the St.Pattys river dying festival because everywhere was sooooooo busy. We ended up coming here because of a recommendation and it did not disappoint!!! The drinks were amazing and the bar tenders were such good company. This is definitely a place I would go to frequently if I lived near by. My only suggestion is let’s get some Karoke going in there 😃“

“Very nice refreshing drinks and the outdoor view is so gorgeous“

“Professionalism. It's always a high energy, very sexy show.“

“If you're looking for a truly unique and thrilling experience, I highly recommend checking out Axeclusive Lounge. This venue offers an incredible axe throwing experience that is perfect for groups of friends, families, or even corporate events. They even offer a Virtual Reality and Splatter Room. The staff at Axeclusive Lounge are friendly and knowledgeable, and ensure that all guests are having a great time. They provide thorough safety instructions and guidance on proper throwing techniques, making sure everyone is comfortable before beginning. Once you're ready to start, the atmosphere is electric. The sound of axes hitting the targets is exhilarating, and it's hard not to feel a rush of excitement with every throw, maybe even let out any frustration. It’s a nice way to decompress and escape reality. And if your family is as competitive as mine, we kept each other on our toes. Overall, I highly recommend Axeclusive Lounge to anyone looking for a fun and memorable experience. It's a great way to spend an afternoon or evening with friends. I’d definitely come back again!“

“Excellent customer service. Food was delicious and the prices weren’t bad at all. Highly recommend!“

“A great metal bar in the city! Neighborhood bar vibes- cash only, small stage. Great spot for local bands to play! Great staff- owner Dave is very personable and there a LOT! Nothing bad to say about it!“

“We had the most magical evening at After. The food was beyond amazing and the service was top notch. We are still talking about our memorable dinner.“

“Great vibe! Sat outside.“

“Just had lunch with my neighbor Jorge and as usual was NOT disappointed! Chris was her usual friendly self. She’s always on the ball about pleasing people and sending them home happy and full. Rose was the waitress everyone dreams of. Patient and funny all in the same breath. If you haven’t been to LaVilla I highly recommend a visit. You will want to return again and again! I’d be there more often but I have no self control. 🤣“

“Perfect combination of esthetic decor, unique menu and signature cocktails!“

“I’ve only stopped by this place a handful of times, but it’s honestly a great spot for a late-night hangout 🌙🍻. The vibe is really chill and it’s perfect when you’re out late and still want somewhere to grab a drink and relax 😎✨.

One of the best things is their hours they stay open until 4 AM on the weekends and even until 5 AM on Saturdays, which is amazing if you’re not ready to call it a night just yet ⏰🔥. It’s definitely a reliable go-to when most other places are already closed. Overall, a solid late-night bar that I’d keep coming back to! 👍“

“Rogers Park Social is an absolute standout neighborhood staple that perfectly captures a welcoming, vibrant, and sophisticated atmosphere. It is the ideal place to gather with friends for a craft cocktail or to enjoy a relaxing evening in a space that feels both polished and genuinely inviting. The quality of their drinks is consistently top-tier, and you can really taste the care and expertise behind everything they serve. I place an incredibly high premium on cleanliness and the overall maintenance of a venue, and I am consistently impressed by how tidy, well-organized, and immaculately kept their space is—it creates such a professional, stress-free environment that makes every visit a truly positive experience. The staff is consistently friendly, highly skilled, and does a wonderful job of ensuring that every guest feels right at home. If you are looking for a reliable, high-quality venue that prioritizes both atmosphere and professional standards, I cannot recommend Rogers Park Social highly enough!“

“Had the Rose burger and it was 👌🏻“

“I attended a party in the party room. There was a cash bar in the room and the attendants were really nice. The room was a very nice size. They allow you to decorate. There are about 10 round tables and chairs provided as well. In addition, you can also bring your own food. Even with the table and chairs, there was space for the dessert table, DJ booth as well as a balloon arch with backdrop for photos. Oh, one final thing, the room has its own entrance from the parking lot and two bathrooms for your party guests.“

“my place to be with good people“

“Great outdoor spot, great drinks...fun!“

“As a visitor to Chicago, this was such a warm and welcoming place to have a drink or a late night snack and great conversation. The ownership and staff are amazing and the safe, relaxed environment is worth its weight in gold. If you can go here, please do. And tip these awesome folks, they do it right“

“Paris has a great vibe. I stayed in the Versailles tower which was so far from all the action. It was the renovated tower and wish my room was a bit more authentic to the paris theme. The check in line is also insane. The restaurants are fabulous! The views are great. In my room plugging in the hair dryer blew the fuse in the bathroom. Overall great experience and fun.“

“Great atmosphere, Great food and drinks 🍸“

“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.“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Queenies is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Bartender Marvin and Alex is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing steak. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Intimate, welcoming and fun atmosphere. Karaoke night is a great time. 10/10“

“This is our go to spot after work to play some games and chill on a couple drinks 🍺 cheers 🍻 Bartenders are nice every time we came in“

“(Updated review) I am absolutely thrilled with how Kevin handled everything! After posting my review, he personally reached out and thoroughly addressed all my concerns about the Bottom Lounge and the event. He even went out of his way to arrange event attendance for both me and my aid.

We had such a fantastic evening! The entire staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. Kevin truly went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing experience, and the security team was absolutely wonderful in quickly resolving our bathroom accommodations. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out!“

“Great service and even better food! 10 out of 10 all around! When you go ask for Josh!“

“The most unpretentious public house I've found in Chicago. Fantastic pool table and beer garden. Mel abides.“

“it's a cool little dive bar. the bartender was kinda annoying and pushy... some short chick. I wasn't very fond of her but other than that the bars pretty cool“

“Friday nites karaoke. Noel is great with his music and he can sing. There are many great singer and the Atmosphere is fantastic. Everyone is so friendly everyone does their best to just get along. They have great Bartenders. Everyone should come on by and check this place out.“

“fun atmosphere and great service love this place 😍“

“Only thing I would have loved was a portable magnifying mirror to use at the desk“

“Like a flash back to the 70’s, before I could hold a cocktail but fancied doing so.....“

“Good ambience. Good food. Good service. My husband and I went there with another couple and were amazed with everything. We want to go again.“

“We’ve always had a blast there. murray is the best. However the new sat night Karaoke host is absolutely wretched. She was rude, snotty and acted like everyone was annoying her. We were afraid to request songs. Big bummer because that has always been our go to spot. Missing Clyde for sure!!!“

“Chill and good vibes All night“

“I had a slice of cheese pizza. I usually never get just cheese, but I didn't feel like having pepperoni which was the other slice option. The pizza was very thin, but not floppy. Kind of crunchy and a little chewy. The crust was crunchy and soft inside. I was pleasantly surprised by this slice.“

“Joey and Aileen did a fantastic job with my wife's birthday. They're incredibly flexible and willing to work with you to make the space look and feel exactly how you envision it. The venue itself is sexy and spacious. The lighting and sound was perfect. And the bar staff were just as great to work with as Joey and Aileen. We can't recommend the space enough and will certainly be back for future events.“

“I found Easy Bar while searching for somewhere to spend some time after our show was over in the neighborhood. Turns out Wednesday evenings they host comedy open mic in the back. My compliments here are to the comedians I was able to see perform and the host especially. The way he closed out his brief opening set had myself and others in tears. Not the tears that laughter provokes, but an emotional depth that I assume took an insane amount of courage to speak in front of a room of people. I traveled into the city last night to feel and experience something different from my day to day and it just so happened to be three words. Chocolate covered knives. Please do thank him for me.“

“Super nice peeps- dog stuff so it’s a keeper. Just go“

“Great service and food! Highly recommend ♥️“

“My relax place, perfect for enjoying time with friends, really good food and the best service 😊“

“Pretty space, intimate and friendly staff.“

“everybody is friendly. n its my hangout n great bartenders“

“Thursdays Karaoke Night is a blast with great food, selection of drinks, a vibing atmosphere, wonderful staff with a pool table. 👍“

“lol oh Tai’s. It’s definitely an experience. Jeff the bartender is awesome. Then you have the regulars. It’s a dive bar in every aspect. It’s definitely rowdy but not in a way that I feel unsafe. The security guards are not overly aggressive about checking ids like some bars. Word of warning: you will be drunk by the end of the night lol.“

“Amazing place and the people there are awesome“

“If you work in a service industry and you're looking for a cool late night spot to have an after work cocktail or beer this is definitely the place.
9 times out of 10 you will find the first 10 to 15 seats of the bar filled with industry workers kibitzing and laughing with the bar staff. This place definitely has a Cheers vibe - once they get to know you, they'll always remember you.
It's just too bad they had to close the kitchen because their food was amazing....“

“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.“
