    Cozy little punk rock venue in Chicago located close to Soldier Field. From the looks of it, there are shows every night and more than one because it houses more than one music venue. Ascetic atmosphere if you're into the classic punk rock scene. If you're not into that, it may look strange at first, but you'll still have a great time. Service was on top of everything. Good prices for the area. First visit and I would definitely come back and will be keeping an eye on future shows there. We saw 'Under the Rug', 'Basic Printer', and 'Weekend Run Club', and all 3 gave us different but amazing music. 3 different styles. Had VIP tickets with the sound check and meet and greet with the band. Very much enjoyed our evening there from out of state.

    Great venue with some character. Everyone on the staff that we interacted with was awesome, friendly and clearly cared about providing great service. I had the mainstage burger with fries. It was served hot, fresh and cooked exactly how I ordered it. It tasted delicious too! This was in the music joint/bar area. There is a small stage there where I have enjoyed a couple great shows in the past and a bass guitar clinic this time. Headed to the rooftop to hang out in the open air, listening to some heavy music playing through the speakers, people watching, enjoying a few drinks and the passing El Trains. There's a pool table, bar with more great food and a basketball shooting area. Then we headed back down to the street to go next door to the rock joint to watch the concert we came to see, the band Living Colour. Great sound, easy views of the stage. There's a balcony area with some seating as well. I really dig all of the band and other random stickers that are all over almost every available surface in the joint and the rock club, especially the bathrooms. Very rock n' roll! Along with the great food offerings, there is a pretty extensive drink & beer menu...I believe there were 5 pages in the menu to choose from. I will definitely be back again to see another show, eat a meal, drink some drinks, soak up the atmosphere and have a memorable time. Great place!

    Chicago’s legendary music bar. Located in the south loop, house of live events for local and international bands. Great acoustic, staff that really knows and cares about music and it’s listeners. Food and drinks are good.

    Chill atmosphere, especially in the third floor patio. It’s open air and partially covered for sun/rain protection. Huge liquor/beer/seltzer/drink selection.

    Reggie's is one of the best intimate music venues in Chicago. It's wide range of groups with perfect size, Reggie's will allow you to get up close and personal with the artists you want to hear and see. The offer a good beer and liquor selection and do have an attached restaurant if you need a bite before a concert.

    Place is very nice! Especially to hang out with friends. The outdoor patio is great in the summer, and it is worth to check out the rooftop too! Live music happens periodically, so make sure you are not missing out on the events. Had a lot of shareables and several different drinks among the table. Portions were generous and drinks were great! Cozy athmosphere and easy drinks: nothing more you may want to expect from a pub. The service was also great, I was offered to try a beer before purchasing it and the selection is wide! One time is surely not enough to complete the experence! I will be back for sure!

    Reggies Chicago is an AMAZING bar and grill located at the corner of 21st St. and State St. They feature live music from some of the FINEST local musicians - both near and far. It features three awesome floors. The service is GREAT! There are THREE unisex bathrooms on the ground floor. Awesome place to grab some grub, listen to some GREAT, LIVE music and have a GOOD time!

    Came here originally for a series of concert on August 20th, 2023. Because it was not supposed to be the highlight of the evening, was quite surprised by the food quality. Burger and fries were really good, draft beers absolutely great and staff really friendly. On the music side, it was a great event with Gina Mari, Stolen Sun, The Waterfall King, Hemlock playing one after another. I definitely recommend the place when visiting Chicago, especially if you are in a Loop / South Loop hotel and want some good rock music and more than decent food without going too far

    Rock Club is 400 person venue. All general admission with a small balcony. Entire place is built to look like your standing under the L tracks, very cool. Food was surprisingly good, grilled chicken was actually grilled and excellent.

    Rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll! This is the place to really get to hear some raw local talent. My band has played here many times, and the atmosphere is so, so cool. There's quite The eclectic bunch of people to meet and lots of neat and interesting things to look at. The bar has numerous beers to offer and the beer flows plenty, the food here is outstanding! There's more to Reggie's if you have time to roam around there's various areas of the building which include another concert hall a rooftop deck even a record store. Have a great time! enjoy, cheers

    Saw a concert here! It's an odd venue. The bar at the back of the venue is nice. I like that there's some seating at the sides and a loft above for additional seating! The entrance is a bottleneck, however, making it difficult and slow to get inside - a big bummer for a venue that's in such cold weather for a lot of the year. The floor inside the venue is slanted down to the stage. After a while night of standing it really hurts your feet, back, and knees. Overall a fun venue with nice staff!!! Just a bit poorly designed.

    Mainly come to this bar for the live music and the rides to/from events in the city. Some of the workers have funky attitudes, which can be understandable considering the time we're in, but it isn't fair to unproblematic customers to receive hostility meant for another individual. My tatertots were good and so was the margarita, though I wish it was blended better. Will be returning!

    Been my spot for a few years now for food and drinks. I've had pretty much the whole menu for food but today I went to my original first love here their "buffaque" wings. It's a mixture of buffalo and BBQ sauce that is one of a kind. 8.9. I got 8 wings with ranch and did damage on these bad boys. They are above-average size for wings too so 8 is all I need. I would say the ranch is not the greatest but it's still cool. Overall the wings don't miss for me in terms of quality wings in the city.

    I came to Reggies for a Pancake & Booze Art Show! Awesome place. There was also a rock show on the other side going on. It was a large place, lots of space for events. I enjoyed myself

    Cool music venue that has a restaurant and bar on top. We tried the burgers and they were very good.

  • 5/5 Carisma W. 6 months ago on Google
    This venue was gorgeous and intimate! Great for small gatherings, concerts, or events! Recently visited here for the first time to see one of my favorite artist and fell in love with the theme and neon lights!

  • 5/5 Robert B. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the very best establishments in America to see live music. If you're into punk, metal or most types of rock this is definitely the spot. I saw FEAR and "had a beer with FEAR" while they're in town for Riot Fest. If you can see bands a venues this size you'll have a better experience. Most of the big music festivals are about making money, not the bands or fans.

  • 5/5 Greg M. 1 year ago on Google
    Awesome heavy metal music venue. Great staff, brunch drink and roof top. Alcohol drink prices very reasonable.

  • 5/5 Alison L. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent little spot. Our waitress was very polite and attentive. Good food.. especially the wings.. best I've had in a while. I would go there just to get em! Seen a show and the venue was very small but nice. No complaints. It was great not having to deal w a big crowd. Bathrooms are awesome!!

  • 5/5 Konstantinos P. 1 year ago on Google
    That's a nice venue with a punk character. It seems to be loved by its patrons. The inside bar and the patio are equally cool places to be. The staff was polite and the beer was cheap, what's not to like?! Ah, the surrounding streets are a bit shady if you mind.

  • 5/5 Carinda L. 2 years ago on Google
    Came here for the Banana Shack comedy and had the best time! Got to see comedians I love and follow and got to see new performers I've never heard of. Food was amazing, drinks were good, table service could have been better during the show (we paid $15 a ticket to see these comedians.. very worth it, but shouldn't have to spend time walking to the bar and waiting on drinks while the show was going on. There was a server working the floor but she never stopped by our table. Our first time here for a show, so maybe we had to request service?) We got to the show early and ordered food upstairs on the rooftop. It's a beautiful night so the ambience was exceptional and the food was amazing! We are vegetarian and ordered the quesadilla +veggies and nachos +veggies -- the "veggies" were perfectly roasted poblanos, red peppers, and zucchini. So so so good and definitely higher quality than we expected from an event venue. Can't wait to be back!!!
