Lounges near Oak Brook, IL

“I celebrated my birthday at Eddie V's and was blown away by the exceptional service and cuisine. Despite being a last-minute reservation, the staff made me feel like a VIP, presenting a heartfelt, staff-signed card that added a touching personal touch. The food was outstanding, and the attentive, warm service catered to our every need. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience, Eddie V's is a standout choice!“

“It's as expected for a hotel with not many options around. Would recommend liquor over wine. You don't have to do what's on the menu as per usual. And bartender super sweet. Waitresses super laid back & kind as well. So for that alone, 4 stars. Just wish the food was equally as good as the service.“

“This was our third year enjoying Holiday Tea at the Drake. What a lovely experience! The service was top-notch and attentive; the tea selection was fabulous - so hard to choose just one. And the treats were all so delicious! We felt very spoiled! We'll definitely be back next year.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Flagship Lounge is better than the Admiral Lounge. It looks like this lounge serves both AA passengers and British Airways passengers. The lounge provides regular dining tables & chairs , bar / counter areas, back sitting rooms ( which are supposed to be quieter areas but there are some Loud Adults and families as well). There’s 2 buffet self serving areas , self serve wine area, self serve liquor & cocktail making area, and dessert section. There’s also a limited time made-to-order area (most likely for breakfast hours).“

“Every time we go there, we're treated as if we're their best customer/close family. The staff is so well trained in how to, not only make customers comfortable, but successfully assist in the excellence of the dining experience. The food has always been phenomenal, and always plentiful. It's a fabulous restaurant and successful because of great food, and owners that know how to treat guests.“

“Had the Rose burger and it was 👌🏻“

“Great establishment! First time visiting. It didn't seem inviting at first. Lots of locals. Ended up having an amazing time with a group of 15+ party. The staff was amazing, food was delicious, and prices were great! It was Kareoke night on a Saturday. The crowd and staff helped people sing if they were nervous! Very fun time. We will be back!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely phenomenal experience at this hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, owner Frank greeted us like old friends. His warmth and genuine hospitality set the tone for the entire evening – he went out of his way to make sure every detail was perfect. You don’t just feel like a customer here; you feel like family.
The food? Out of this world. Every dish was bursting with authentic flavor – the pasta was perfectly al dente, the sauces rich and homemade, and the portions generous without being overwhelming. Easily some of the best Italian I’ve had outside of Italy.
And the live band? Pure magic. They kept the energy high all night with an incredible mix of classics and modern hits. The lounge vibe is sophisticated yet relaxed, perfect for date nights, celebrations, or just unwinding with friends.
Frank and his team have created something truly special. We’re already planning our next visit – this place is now at the top of our favorites list. 10/10, don’t miss it!“

“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.“

“Was brought here with a local friend. Hung out in the back. Outside, under the stars and playing on the drums. Definitely a place high on my return list.“

“Went it for a loaded Bloody Mary. It was great. The people seemed really friendly (employees and customers)
The bathroom needs to be gutted. It’s terrible. I got water all over my self from something leaking. Looks like they have put 30 coats of paint over everything. It’s falling apart in there! The lighting in the bar was terrible. It literally feels like I’m in a dark basement. I would love to see this place get an over haul because it was great potential with the nice staff and great customers. Very very very welcoming!!“

“It was my 1st time there. I was there on Saturday, August 12th 2023 from 9pm to 1am.Bartender was very nice, Tony the karaoke DJ was awesome, nice atmosphereand people. Reasonably priced drinks and food was good. I recommend the chicken strips

Parking: Parking lot is a little small, but if you get there early enough you'll have no trouble finding Parking“

“I noticed the photos of various legends displayed on the walls. The owner, Jeremiah, was very friendly. I love egg rolls. I was impressed with the variety of egg rolls on the menu. I ordered the philly egg roll and the j*** chicken egg roll. They were both very tasty. I will return to try others.“

“I really like this place.. nice ppl n drinks n food is great...“

“Not a terrible joint, parking isn't easy but worth it. Good enough portions for enough food.“

“I always have a great time at Chet's. What a fun place, especially when the outdoor area is open and there is a band playing. Good place to watch a game, meet up with friends. Some food specials,too. You'll probably end up making a new friend or two. The beer is cheap and so are the ladies!“

“Can’t rate the food since I didn’t have any. But this little cozy spot is exactly what I needed. No shame on those city young spots but having people around you that are respectful and friendly is key.
Great music, staff are nice and everyone knew eachother. Will come back again and again“

“At the first moment you step in that place the personel give you an agreeable feeling. Very friendly waiters, it is a friendly place to to go out with friends and colleagues or with your date. heavenly cuisine, skillful chef, reasonable price and excellent service. Highly recommended.“

“Great staff, food is mediocre and expensive, but it is Rosemont and located in a nice hotel. I ordered roasted corn chowder, asparagus, and onion rings. Menu isn't the best selection of choices. I payed 40.88 for everything I listed and a 22oz stella tap beer. I would t go out of my way to stop back, but if I'm staying at the hotel not a bad choice.“

“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.“

“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!“

“The food was meh. I got the ribeye. I will start by saying that I cleaned my plate. So it wasnt THAT bad... But the steak was chewy and lacked flavor. And it might have been a touch over-done from the med-rare I asked for; AND it was way too thin. I'd be surprised if someone said it was half an inch thick. But again, I finished it. It wasn't nearly bad enough to complain about. But for nearly $50, it wasn't up to snuff. The green beans and mashed potatoes were both pretty good.
Service was good enough. Our waiter was on top of everything and fast. Can't ask for more.

We stopped in because we had limited time between check in at the hotel and when the concert started at Joe's live across the street/parking lot. If we had more time, we probably wouldve gone somewhere else. It's not bad, but it's not great food either. Again, for nearly $50, you would probably be better off somewhere else. But if it's your only option, you won't feel bad either.

They seemed pretty kid friendly, fwiw.“

“This place is so cute! Service is not only great, but they are dressed in really cute flapper like costumes! There was also a piano player and Singer the night that we went. I loved it! Not only that but the food that we ordered was amazing! As soon as you walk in, you feel like you’re walking back in time. The aesthetic, the tunes, just everything, so pretty. can’t wait to go back.“

“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!“
