Blues bar in Chicago. $15 entry inside. There’s 2 stages with live music it’s a good time.
Top three in best Blues bars I've ever been to. Two stages and spaces that you go back and forth to so the music never stops. Great performances all night. The only knock is that they were holding a bag of coffee and souvenirs for me behind the counter in the merchandise area and it couldn't be found.
Amazing place that hosts some amazing artists and their bands/musicians. It’s a very casual vibe. Didn’t know much as a tourist but got acclamated very quickly. It was cool to switch between stages. Joanna Connor and Rico Mcfarland and their bands were amazing! Very different profiles of soul, blues, with blends of other genres that made for a really fun time. Bring a friend and dance, it’s what makes it more fun. Catfish was quite well seasoned. Good beer
Had some great food. The smash burgers were great, but the fries and Mozzarella sticks were just frozen stuff, so mid. But the live music was why we were there and it did not disappoint.
Had a great night with various artists performing... Food is good and quick .. you need to order in person. The kitchen is at the back. The TV in the main music room shows when your food is ready, to pick it up... loved their smashed burgers... Highly recommended!
