Could be the best venue in Chicago! Killer sound, great knowledgeable staff that KNOW good music! So there is always killer bands & killer tunes between. Great bars, great food. CANT LOOSE! GO enjoy!

For such a big venue, the drink prices are SUPER reasonable. Great place to see a show-- and there's a second bar and bathrooms downstairs!

Whenever I know there's an act coming to town that I'm excited to see, I always hope it's at the Double Door because I know they're going to sound great. Read more

Great bands + good acoustics = good times (acts like Art Brut and Bob Log III). But if you come here during the summer, bring a fan. They have AC, but they never seem to turn it on.

Smashing Pumpkins, VAST, Hole, Killing Hanah.... Need I say more? Coming up are Rocklahoma, DJ Quik, RAW and so much more! A staple in Chicago

Good beer selection to go with some good music. Soul Summit is always a fun time too.

If your a shorty like me go upstairs!! Its a little far away from the stage but worth it to actually see everything if you always have tall people in front of you like me.

You are currently on one of the trendiest streets in Chicago! If you have time, take a walk around the area. There are a bunch of cool shops!

Get there early enough to snag a seat at the bar. Spin halfway to watch the band, spin halfway again to grab a drink. Repeat as needed.
