“Beautiful park with space for all. In addition the First Division museum is located on site as well and if you go to one, make sure you see them both. Lots of history and just a great way to spend the afternoon anytime of year. Plenty of parking and restrooms.”

“LOVE THIS PLACE!! Sophia is my favorite person there to both talk to and makes the best drinks. Very inviting and their drinks/ treats are so much better than starbucks and there qty is actually worth the pricing.”
“Nice food selection. Some of the hot food was cold but I blame that on inconsiderate customers who don't close the warming trays after retrieving their portions. The serving staff was very attentive and prompt with serving us.”
“I cannot speak highly enough of the value of this museum.It is extremely inexpensive for the amount you receive.We got there at 1:00 and only walked through half by 2:30 and it closed at 3:00.We could have taken much longer but we started to realize that it was getting close.There is so much good information You literally have to stay at each section for 15 minutes or so to just really grasp the greatness of the sacrifice of these people.I can't wait to go see this again.Any pictures that anyone takes is only a minuscule version of what it's actually like to be in that space.It is completely immersive with war sounds in the background and tanks in front of you and pictures and maps and artifacts.I have two public folders on my Facebook account (RoseAnn Melcarek) that are for Cantigny if you want to see more pictures.”
“Absolutely amazing service for my milestone birthday celebration!! Really tasty food with outstanding service and bar!! Flawless event! Definitely recommend!! Thank you Trevor & Amit for managing my birthday!!”
“This was the first wedding I attended at Empress Banquets and it was outstanding. The service was great and the food was fantastic I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and family”
“Jenn was great! We got on a lane without bumpers and she quickly moved us to one that had them. Thanks to her quick action we avoided tears and had a fabulous family night! Thanks Bowlero and Jenn!”
“If you need to get out the house and work elsewhere this is the place to go!! Their drinks are strong and tasty and they have seasonal drinks as well! What I was surprised about was that they also have a cocktail menu, because it's 5'o'clock somewhere right?! My son really liked their frozen hot chocolate and wants to go back for more! It's just a nice industrial space that anyone would like to hang out at!!”
“We had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Carlisle in November of 2023. As most people, we looked at multiple venues to select the best one for our special day. After visiting several locations, we went to The Carlisle and from the moment we entered we knew this was the one. The Carlisle is very elegant with a lot of mirrors and crystal chandeliers and after meeting with the event planner we were sold. Laura Papa was welcoming, professional and explained everything clearly. She answered all our questions with great detail and made suggestions, but never tried to upsell us. We had found the perfect place for our wedding! Every time we met with Laura, we became more sure that the Carlisle was superior to all other venues. My husband to be, wanted the evening to be magical for me and magical it was! Laura and the staff at the Carlisle were phenomenal. They listened to what we wanted and delivered beyond our expectations. We highly recommend The Carlisle to anyone looking for an elegant, well-run establishment to host any event. There are many venues to choose from in the Chicagoland area ,but if you are looking for a perfect experience, The Carlisle is the best choice hands down.”
“We had a beautiful baby shower for our daughter! This space is so bright and gorgeous. They have several decor items to help complete the look you’re hoping for. The sitting area is perfect for gift opening and was such a cute photo backdrop. The owner and staff are incredible. Cannot recommend That Girl & Co. more!! Thank you Massiel!”
“Always have a great time coming in for a leauge night Kaylee makes it a fun an welcoming environment every week. She is great interacting with my kids and always goes above and beyond for the guests.”

“This is an amazing post with even more amazing people. My family needed assistance and this post and everyone, literally everyone showed up. As a veteran, a single mother, and a person of color, I have never felt love like this from ANY Veteran Organization, and I want to thank all of the members and guests that supported myself and my family during our hardship. We walked in with hope and walked out with a new family. If you are a Veteran that needs help, please come to this post, literally anyone who is there will point you in the right direction. Thank you again Post 2164 and thank you for accepting my family into your family. You all deserve all the goodness this world has to offer. I pray your Post continues to grow and prosper.”
“Very good spot to stop for lunch or to watch sports games. Haven’t had the best luck with service when seated in the dining room but we are well taken care of when we sit at the bar. They have some of my favorite salads and my boyfriend loves their burgers and cheese curds!”
“I've been a proud Member of NCC for 32+ years. Our golf course was renovated 2005-07 and is always in perfect playing condition. Our clubhouse and dining facilities were expanded and modernized in 2021 and our food and staff have never been better. Although we've had a waiting list for several years, NCC is the best value in the western suburbs and Member opportunities are available. Please direct any questions and interest to Atusa Freyer at the Club.”
“What a great time for my Grandson’s birthday! He turned 5 and loved it. They couldn’t have been nicer to all of the family who also enjoyed it too. Aunts, Uncles, cousins and of course Grandmas and Grandpa.”
“Naper Settlement offers a fascinating journey through the history of Naperville, providing visitors with a charming and educational experience. The meticulously restored buildings and period-appropriate exhibits transport you back in time, offering a glimpse into the community's past.The variety of structures, from historic homes to a blacksmith shop, showcase the architectural evolution of the area. The knowledgeable staff, often dressed in period costumes, enhance the immersive experience by sharing engaging stories about the settlement's history.The exhibits are well-curated, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs of the early settlers. The Martin Mitchell Mansion, a Victorian-era marvel, is a highlight, showcasing the affluent lifestyle of the period.While the settlement provides a rich historical experience, some areas could benefit from additional interactive elements to engage visitors more deeply. The availability of guided tours or informational materials would further enhance the overall experience.The grounds are well-maintained, providing a pleasant environment for leisurely strolls. Naper Settlement frequently hosts events and festivals, adding vibrancy to the historical site.Overall, Naper Settlement is a valuable stop for history enthusiasts and families looking to connect with the roots of Naperville. With a bit of enhancement in interactive features, it has the potential to evolve into a must-visit destination.”
“The service was oustanding I had questions and the Manager Tiffany came by our table and we ended up talking for 30 min.. Jackie had questions on the wine ? the sever Walk her around and explained each wine that had to offer ..and what food would paired up with different wines..what a fun night ..”
“Real chill vibe with an awesome staff. It's also super close to just about everything - incredibly convenient for downtown area. They also sell booze you can bring home with you, so if you're only wanting to grab just one obligatory drink with friends then maybe a sixer to bring home to share with your partner or self or friends, whatever - they've got you covered! They have outdoor spots as well and the music is right up our alley, so there's really nothing negative I could come up with.”
“The Place is beautiful ? food menu is bad you don't have a lot to chose from they don't have basic salad ? Cesar no meat ? steak, chicken, pork chops Nothing I like an menu”
“Overall was a good experience. The hostess found us a nice table in the corner as one of our guests was hard of hearing. Michael was our server and though he was nice when he stopped by, he was not as attentive as I would have hoped. He was notably busy. He did not get a refill on my wine though I asked him twice for it.”

“The ribs were delicious! My fish and chips were eh. My husband liked their buffalo grilled chicken.Kid-friendliness: It wasn't really kid friendly. The high chairs are tiny. My just now 2 year old, who is pretty small, could barely fit in it.”
“We had our wedding ceremony and reception here. It was incredible. The grounds and architecture are beautiful. The event hall has beautiful stained glass windows. The mansion was elegant. Our guests said it was the a classy and relaxing environment and that’s exactly why we chose it. This place has so many ornate details in the ceilings, flooring, staircase, woodwork, and windows. Tours were also offered to our guests making it a unique and fun wedding experience.What I loved most about this place was the event coordinator, Sherry. She put so much of her attention, time, and heart into our event. She was professional, responsive, caring, and helpful. She knows everything it takes to make an event goes smooth. She worked with every vendor to ensure the our evening went well.The Peabody Mansion will always be a special place in our heart. Not only was it beautiful venue but it was Sherry who made the night absolutely seamless and perfect. We are forever grateful to have worked with someone who cared about our wedding as much as we did.”
“Our kiddos got invited to a birthday party here and it was great! I loved that all ages are able to enjoy the playground! The staff were all very friendly and accommodating! I was waiting for the stall with the baby diaper changer to become available and one of the staff members noticed. She took me to the nursing baby room that I didn’t know was available! She even turned the light on for me as I carried my baby into the room!Overall, each section was clean and the equipment looked well kept but not new. Nevertheless, my kids had a great time!”

“Great value. Great service and amendment. Great community. We moved to Ashbury free months ago, and so far we are very happy. Nice neighborhood, and community. Highly recommend, especially for families with children.”
“Cantigny is a beautiful and expansive park in Wheaton, which includes a very nice golf course, with a pro shop and a clubhouse restaurant called the Red Oak Room. The only time I have visited this establishment was for my niece's wedding reception two years ago. The private banquet/event space and the grounds around it are stunning. But the food and service was even better. I think it was the best wedding reception I've ever been to. With around 150 people, the space was laid out with room to spare so it felt luxurious and not at all cramped. There was a bar with excellent bartenders, room for the dance floor to remain empty so no tables had to be removed after dinner. And the food! Guests had a choice from 3 entrees - filet mignon, salmon and chicken. Not easy to offer 3 different meals and get them all done perfectly. Both a soup course and salad were served (after the cocktail hour which had a variety of tray-passed hors d'oeuvres). The filet was at least 7 ozs of pure perfection with accompanying potato and veg. Champagne was poured for a toast and a choice of red or white wine was served throughout dinner. A wonderful dessert buffet was served in addition to the wedding cake. The service was also perfection capped off with coffee service with really delicious coffee. The wait staff was very pleasant and professional and made sure the dining experience was stellar for each and every guest. A great DJ had the crowd dancing for hours and later in the night, more food - Chicago pizza and Italian beef sandwiches with all the fixings for anyone who wasn't still stuffed from dinner and served with to go boxes to take some with you if you were still too full. It was a very nice venue with wonderful food and service - it was perfect in every way!”
“I have to say thank you to the restaurant employee, Angelo, who went out of his way to return a lost wallet. The wallet was lost in uptown Elmhurst and we searched all the areas where it might have been lost. Later in the evening a man showed up at our door with the wallet. He said a person found it and brought it into the restaurant. He was so thoughtful to bring it to us and was not expecting anything in return. This local family owned restaurant serves delicious food and has exceptional customer service! I highly recommend and I plan to keep it on my favorites list!”
“Good place to share and spend time with family, excellent service.Parking: Villa park, ample free parkingKid-friendliness: Children's menu and family atmosphere”
