“Great location on the north shore for concerts and other events. Venue hosts the occasional big name performer ( singers and musicians) as well emerging artists. A lot of fun! The space can also be rented for private events and functions, too.”
“Amazing class. I learned a lot. The instructors were patient and friendly. The food we cooked was terrific and the group environment was really fun. I will definitely do another of these classes.”
“My 70th birthday was at the Social loft. The venue was perfect for my celebration and all my guests commented on how nice the venue was. Deanna, the owner, couldn't have been nicer and answered my endless questions patiently and quickly. Her staff was very helpful and a delight to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend anyone looking for an intimate venue to look here. Kudos to the Social Loft!!”
“I attended a wedding here and the food place was a very good venue. The food was great but I wasn't sure if it was catered in or made on site. Service was very good. A wedding I will remember for a long time. The bride and groom came down the fire pole as they entered the reception.”
“I had a work meeting here last week and it was lovely! The light brunch they served was made by the in house chef, and it was artfully presented and delicious, and gave such luxury vibes. The stained glass in the house is amazing, and all the rooms I toured were restored beautifully to be historically accurate yet also functional for co-working and hosting events. Will definitely be exploring co-working at this space!!”
“Attended a winter concert inside the Martin theatre and it was a wonderful experience. We had seats in row N and we were able to see the performance perfectly. Greeters/ushers were friendly and helpful. I would definitely attend another winter concert at Ravinia.”
“The most amazing place to celebrate any occasion. This is the second time I've returned to Chateau Ritz to celebrate my other daughter's 15th birthday, and I knew without a doubt that it's the best banquet hall and that my expectations for service and quality would be met. They make your event as relaxed as possible and help you throughout the entire planning process. I was extremely happy with all the services, from the banquet staff to the food service. Jess and Mike, thank you for everything; you are amazing, and Jess, your decorations were beautiful—something magical. Thank you for everything, Chateau; I will definitely return for my next event.”
“I attended an art show for the Chicago Pastel Painters Society at The Art Center. It was beautifully presented, with the art in various rooms, allowing the crowd to mingle and flow. The lighting was excellent for the paintings, and the staff was very accomodating. Overall an excellent venue for an art show!”

“Such a wonderful experience being at this venue for a thrilling and thought provoking performance. The staff were kind and personable. The theater was very spaced out and felt comforting. Would definitely return here!”

“We could not have found a more perfect venue for our wedding on July 12, 2025. From the moment we showed up for our tour and met with Monique, we knew Kenilworth was the place for us. The venue is beautiful, historic, and well-maintained, yet the pricing and contract requirements are completely reasonable and fair. We felt comfortable and at home from that very first visit. We also found an excellent caterer (Catered by Design) from their preferred catering list. Monique was a dream to work with--so organized and punctual yet laid-back and flexible. We received so many compliments on the venue from our guests. While we opted to have both our ceremony and reception indoors, Monique allowed us to open up the lawn and patio to guests for cocktail hour, which was absolutely stunning and a huge hit. I would recommend Kenilworth to anyone looking for a wedding venue!”

“not very accessable. as a mobility aid user I noticed how steep any of the wheelchair ramps were immediately, and had to ask staff for assistance more than once.”
“I came here today with my husband and our experience was amazing. Full bar, great food, and awesome service. The drinks came out fast and our server was super friendly. It was our first time and as soon as I mentioned it, she explained everything to us in great detail. The service and drinks were better than those at high end restaurants!! Will be coming back soon 100%”
“Always have great family events for members and family of members. Amazing Christmas party! Santa and Mrs claus stopped by! Otherwise it's a closer knit group”
“I visited for my State ID and a learner driving permit, it took less than one hour to complete the application and other formalities and got both the documents. Very kind staff to help and a hassle free and quick process.”

“One of my very favorite hotel. Great location, room and staff, from hotel shuttle driver, front desk, restaurant and housekeeping. I’m sad when I’m in town and they’re sold out which happens quite often. I love staying at this hotel.”
“Tessarae is such a warm, inviting place full of the kindest people. We had my daughter's birthday party there and it was a great experience. The environment was very inviting and comfortable, our group of teens had a really fun time doing a painting lesson together. We're looking forward to returning for painting lessons and art anytime in the future!”
“A must see! Give yourself plenty of time to see this museum. Great displays telling the Holocaust stories. They do have guides to walk you through the displays. We haven't used them, but I'd recommend using them your first time through. I've been here 2 times and haven't taken enough time to see all in detail. Make sure you plan to see the 3D Holocaust survivor exhibit. It's a hologram of a survivor sitting on a chair telling their story. You can ask questions, and they answer. Very cool. They have a VR experience. I'd recommend you go to that. However, the technology needs upgrading. It's worth going to. Overall, highly recommend you visit and great for young adults to understand what really happened. Learn from history, so this never happens again.”

“Kenny and Jeanette at The Fairway in Niles (Howard Street Inn) were unbelievably helpful while planning and hosting my mom’s funeral luncheon. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make everything perfect. The space was beautiful and just the right size — comfortable, welcoming, and thoughtfully set up.
The staff was kind, attentive, and professional, and the food and service were excellent. It truly felt like a celebration of my mom’s life surrounded by family and friends. I can’t thank Kenny, Jeanette, and the entire team enough for their compassion and care during such an emotional time. Highly recommend!”
“A park and a beach is along the lake. Gillson Park is the best thing about Wilmette, and beats any of those overcrowded ones farther south. If you want to actually be able to walk on a beach and not feel crowded, then head up a ways. Be careful about where you park because you can find places for free. There's also plenty of green space for athletic fields. Gillson is a big park, and that makes it feel not as crowded. It has several different parts. There's the actual park with the grass and trees. It's often very quiet here. Where's all the people? At the beach. This beach is still less crowded than any of the Chicago beaches full of both locals and tourists. It has a nice little play area. The sand is pretty clear of debris for the most part. Also at this park is a big a** marina. There's lots of boats, and there's also a club you can join if you can pay up. However you spend time here, just be careful about parking or it may be costly. It has pay lots close to the beach but you can find free parking on the residential streets. They have certain places where you can't park though, so pay attention to signs and whatever.”
“I am such a fan of the Cook County Forest Preserves . And one reason I love them is that there's always something new to find and explore! Every time I visit I fall in love again.Today I visited the Volunteer Resource Center (VRC) near Edgebrook Woods. They held a program for Black History Month; I really want to support this type of cultural programming within the FPCC system, and it's an added bonus that it sounded interesting.The VRC is right near the Edgebrook Golf Course--the same entrance is for both. But unless you've been to an event here or go to the golf course, you're unlikely to known this was here. It's a really great event space which the FPCC rents out for various events. There's a different rate for county residents versus non-residents, and the cost differs for Monday-Thursday and Friday-Sunday dates. However, the rates seem really reasonable to me. There's a main room which is especially lovely; there's a large fireplace, high ceilings, and a lot of space--this room can hold 100 people. The classroom is much smaller and can accommodate up to 40. Both those spaces can be rented independently of one another, and I think you can rent portions of the golf course as well? All the information is on the webpage. The main room has a kitchen space as well so you can work with a caterer for your event. I wish I had an event for which I could use this space; I'll bet it's especially beautiful in the spring and summer. There are picnic tables just outside the indoor facility, and parking is plentiful as well.”

“This was the least expensive bowling option on a Saturday. The staff was nice and patient with my first-time bowling toddlers and teens. Will definitely come back.”
“You can NEVER go wrong at a Hyatt Place! Affordable, comfortable, new rooms even if the location is an older Hyatt Place, and best free breakfast buffet hands down!”
“One of my most favorite candy shops in America. Something about their dark chocolate peanut butter buckets makes me always go back and get more. So many truffle flavors to choose from as well.”

“It was AMAZING to see the Home Alone house. When we were there, over 50 people arrived. The big thing to remember is that that is someone's house, so be respectful. It was really cold to see the house even many many years later.”
