There are dozens of museums and theater companies in Chicago, so a cultural experience is never hard to find.

We were in Chicago visiting our daughter for her 30th bday. She had heard about this place so we stopped there and had a blast! It was a little later in the evening but was a great alternative to just sitting in a bar/restaurant eating & drinking. While we waited for our ping pong table we had a drink and the chicken mini tacos which were delicious We were a little nervous as we drew the "the interactive" ping pong table - this was sooo much fun, I highly recommend it! People were dancing around, ping pong balls would go on your table and we would just play them as ours. For two 30 year olds and a set of 50/60 year old parents - we absolutely had a blast! The crowd was getting a little drunk but they were happy and just having fun - if you take teens or children go earlier or not on a Saturday night - otherwise, it was great fun.

Had a wonderful day at this hotel, visiting from Colorado and I see why they call it the windy city. The rooftop view sells itself. The food was amazing. A quick shout out to Chiqui who welcomed us the proper Chicago way with some Malort shots. Would definitely recommend anyone who is looking for a good mango margarita!

This has got to be one of my favorite speakeasy/cocktail lounge experiences of my life. This was such a warm and inviting vibe. The bartender was knowledgeable and crafted delicious cocktails. The cozy atmosphere made this seem even more secret than it already was. Make sure you make a reservation.
