“My granddaughter and I got to share a delightful experience, painting and interacting with the macaw who visited the studio. We also got to observe and learn about other birds from the naturalist who adopted them all. Everything was so well planned and ran smoothly. Lynn, the painting instructor, was very patient and encouraging. The studio was bright, colorful, and comfortable. The owner was present and often involved. Everyone went out of their way to make it a great experience.”
“Working with Paris312 for our corporate event was an incredible experience from start to finish. Communication was top notch — Nicole was highly responsive, organized, and wonderful to work with throughout the planning process. We were presented with many beautiful floral options and ultimately combined elements from two different looks to create something that fit our vision perfectly.
We also took advantage of their à la carte entry signage add-on, along with setup and teardown services — all completely seamless.
Then came the event itself — and wow. The florals absolutely blew us away in person. They were a beautifully subtle and elevated addition to an already great atmosphere, serving as the perfect finishing touch for our event space.
Would hire Paris312 again in a heartbeat. Beautiful work, exceptional service, and a truly stress-free experience.”
“We had an incredible experience with Walden from start to finish. Krystle, Ally, Nick, and the rest of their team were amazing throughout the entire planning process, and it's clear they have thoughtful systems in place to make everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. From their excellent vendor recommendations to the detailed questions they asked to ensure our day looked and felt exactly as we envisioned, every step was handled with care and professionalism. We would absolutely recommend Walden to anyone looking for a beautiful space and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect.”

“We had the best time here. Our bartender Bruno and Aliya, our coordinator, were awesome and made it so easy to host with their help. Our guests said the venue was so pretty and elegant. I love how the venue coordinated their linens and table decor to our color theme. Will definitely book our next event here again!”
“I booked my 40th birthday party at the Party Spot. I have absolutely zero regrets except I can’t rewind time. Nadia was so hands on and left me worry free. Her customer service was impeccable and absolutely amazing. Her communication was very professional and she gave her all. Nick was also very helpful and a great bartender. I can’t wait to book another event with her! She delivers!! Everyone is saying my party was the party of the century!! Thank you Nadia and Nick ?”
“Incredibly pleased with having chosen Ovation as our wedding venue! Spencer and the whole team were professional and responsive and made the planning process easy. The space is set up for smooth transitions between ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner. Fun bonuses that made the night extra special include the photo booth, Rolls Royce, and graphic design services. We also appreciated that a Style Matters DJ is included in the venue rental price and DJ John did a great job. Many of our vendors had already worked at Ovation and all were excited when we said it was our venue. Ovation had everything we wanted and more!”
“We hosted our wedding at the Fairlie at the end of May this year. Alison was absolutely incredible in her responsiveness, consideration, and eagerness to help in preparation of our wedding. The walk through was so smooth, and the day of the wedding was absolutely impeccable. Even with the new remodels in the space, everything was absolutely STUNNING. Would absolutely go back + do it all over again at the Fairlie!”
“An AMAZING venue! The space is light, airy, and cozy while offering so much potential for customization. With many services being BYO, each event holds uniqueness and intimacy. The addition of provided DJ services, a photo booth, and design services, among others eased stress. The patio area is such a nice space for a little escape and offers a great area for kids to play. The staff was responsive and timely. We are grateful for their assistance in making our big day a dream come true! 🤍”
“We had our wedding at the Joinery at the end of June this year, and we couldn’t be happier with how things went! Shay, the venue manager, is so easy to work with and was super responsive to all of our questions both before and after we booked the venue! She also had so many great vendor recommendations for us, which was helpful as it can be overwhelming to figure out where to start when looking for the various vendors you’ll need for a wedding. The space itself was perfect for our group - we were around 95 total, and we held the ceremony, the cocktail hour, and the reception onsite. There are so many separate spaces that you can use in so many different ways, and the bones of the venue are really beautiful as well, particularly the stunning patio! They’re also always working to tweak and improve the venue. It’s such a warm, beautiful place to get married and celebrate with all your loved ones. The inclusion of the apartment above the venue in the venue fee was really nice, and we also rented the Mill House next door which was sooo convenient for planning and executing the wedding. We are so glad we chose The Joinery for our wedding - we can’t recommend them highly enough!”
“My husband found this place for our daughters second birthday party, and let me just tell you what a hidden gem this is. Tia, the owner was extremely professional and responsive to my questions as I tried to nagivate this birthday party. She was very informative and gave me information that was very detailed and didn't leave any room for miscommunication or speculation. If i had any questions, she answered them timely and patiently. The day of the party, our hostess, Ilze was just phenomenal. She helped us set up and was just all around an immense help. The play area and bathrooms were spotless and up to par with an establishment hosting little kids. The space was perfectly set up as to where the parents could sit and watch the world cup game and still be able to see their children playing without ease. The space was safe for our kids, especially at their age, and i really loved that there were cameras in the area to protect our kids and the establishment. All around we were very impressed and it was a lovely birthday! We will be returning on a regular basis. Thanx guys”
“Xoco House Gallery is absolutely amazing! The venue is beautiful, spacious, and elegant while still feeling casual and comfortable. I love that you can bring your own caterer, which makes it perfect for any type of celebration. Whether it’s a 50th birthday, a quinceañera, or mainly a wedding, this place is ideal. The atmosphere is welcoming, classy, and versatile for all kinds of events. I highly recommend Xoco House Gallery you won’t be disappointed!”
“We are so grateful to have had our wedding at the Nineteenth Century Charitable Association (NCCA)! Woody and his team were wonderful to work with - from first touring the venue to clean-up the morning after. Set in the beautiful neighborhood of Oak Park, the NCCA is surrounded by community parks and historic homes by Frank Loyd Wright. We also had easy access to the local hotel to host our guests overnight. This wedding venue is reasonably priced with true historic charm. The food and beverages were excellent. We held our ceremony/cocktail hour on the first floor and reception on the second floor, comfortably accommodating our guest count of 175 people. Woody is responsive and flexible. He is willing to support creative endeavors to make your wedding feel original. We feel so fortunate to have found the NCCA to host our wedding - we would absolutely recommend it to you!”
“Beautiful venue with a great decor package. The owners really help bring our vision to reality, they answered alot of questions and helpful in matching decor to our color palette. We loved the exposed bricks, center pieces, and outdoor area. Perfect option for smaller events.”
“A great place for a picnic! There are portapotties, lots of parking, and plenty of picnic tables. There’s some nice trails close by to hike. Just be aware that you must leave by sunset!! My friends and I were slapped with some hefty tickets because we didn’t know this rule!”
“Visiting the National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture feels like coming home.
Even though it’s in Chicago, the moment you walk in, you feel the spirit of Puerto Rico. The culture, history, and energy are so beautiful and welcoming.
You’re not just visiting a museum. You’re walking into a space that feels like familia. Warm, proud, and full of love for our roots.
If you haven’t been yet, I highly recommend it. It’s truly a special place.

“This is a great place. My niece and nephews love the animals inside the nature center. We also love the lake and the waterfall outside. A great place for kids that is FREE! Wonderful way to get them outside and learning about nature. Very helpful and kind staff.”
“If you know, you KNOW about the Berwyn Eagles Club.
This place isn’t just a venue — it’s history, it’s community, it’s the kind of spot where memories stack up over decades. I’ve been coming here for 20+ years, and there’s nothing quite like walking through those doors and feeling the energy of everything that’s happened inside.
And for wrestling fans? This place was legendary.
Watching AAW Wrestling shows here was something special. The crowd right on top of the action, the noise, the chants — it felt like you were part of the show, not just watching it. Absolute chaos in the best possible way.
And then… last night.
Being there to see Seth Rollins — yeah, Seth Freakin Rollins — in a place like this? Unreal. One of those moments where you just stop and think, “This is why we come to shows.” The kind of memory that sticks with you forever.
Which makes it even harder to hear that shows might not be coming back here.
That one hurts.
Because places like the Berwyn Eagles Club aren’t just buildings — they’re part of the fabric of the community. Generations of fans, decades of events, and countless unforgettable nights. Losing wrestling here doesn’t just mean losing a venue… it means losing a piece of something bigger.
We need to find a way to bring the shows back. Future fans deserve to experience what we’ve had for years. The energy, the passion, the pure magic of a packed house on wrestling night.
This place has given us so much over the last 20+ years — it deserves to keep doing that for the next 20.
Pro tip: If you ever had the chance to catch a show here, you already know. And if there’s any way to bring it back… we should make it happen. 🦅💥”
“10/10 recommend the Martinique. The staff was wonderful and accommodating, especially Steve. Steve went above and beyond to make my wedding day perfect. The food and drinks were delicious. The room was beautifully decorated. I cannot say enough good things about this venue.”
“I really enjoy taking evening walks here in their walking path. Plenty of families here with their kids playing or participating in their favorite sport. In the summer time they have music in the park with live bands playing today’s hits or old time favorites. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy the music.”
“I setup private events at many venues across the country but Rockwell is one of the best in Chicago. Venue speaks for itself but the staff was amazing. They made sure they tried to help with anything we needed. Adrianna, Mallory and Paco were fantastic. I would recommend Rockwell for any event you have.”
“I haven't visited this park in over five years. We hiked for two hours. My friend Andrea led the hike. It was very peaceful and clean. They even have a black- owned smoothie bar at the entrance of the stairs. I will definitely visit again.”
“I was there for a friend's birthday celebration. It was an exquisite event. The space spoke of her impeccable taste, and the food on the menu was scrumptious. Check out the pics and hopefully the video.

“There we were at 3pm. Tess greated us as soon as we entered and immediately began accommodating us. Tess was an amazing instructor and comedian, keeping us engaged, entertained, and safe. 10/10! Can't wait to come back!! Cannot recommend Tess more!!!”
“I have Catered about 10 or more events here, including our old Mayor (Lori Lightfoot) Beautiful event space 10 out of 10 I recommend. The Owner is very professional, kind, and family oriented.”
“Best place for our daughter's 4th birthday party! So many fun things to do in the space! Laura was wonderful in helping plan everything in advance and Ashley was an amazing support at the party. Thank you Purple Monkey team!”

“We hosted my son’s first birthday here because it has a very cozy yet large feel. Simon worked with me to make sure I had plenty of time to decorate, and dealing with issues that arose. My guests were very impressed with the venue and I was able to make my vision come true for the birthday party. The music, lighting, and tech, and access were all easy to figure out. Thank you!”
“Katherine Legge Memorial Lodge is a very nice place. The Harold Zook house and studio next to it have great architectural significance. You can't go in the house, but the outside is very impressive.”
“T'mari is a hidden gem ?. The venue is clean, cozy & intimate. The decor is so nice that you don't really need to decorate. And the owner is very professional yet personable. Worth every penny in rental fees. There's also a parking lot and free street parking. 10 out of 10 rating.”
“Just had my dog Lillie groomed by Anna, she did an amazing job! She is so kind to my dog and I so appreciate all of her hard work! This is a really great place- the people are wonderful!”
