Steven K.April 7, 2015Beautiful venue with great sound. There isn't a bad view in the place. If you want a booth you can reserve one ahead of time or attempt head up to the balcony. Just an amazing concert experience. 😍
Redeye ChicagoAugust 3, 2014Park West has grown into an eclectic music club. The room is without a bad sight line. And the sound? Ringo Starr once said it was the best venue in the world, second only to The Royal Albert Hall. Read more
Tornaparts !October 16, 2013Saw Tweety do a great show here when Wilco was still good...before they turned into DMB. Seriously, You and I was playing in the lobby of my office building the other day....that says it all.

John HankusJuly 26, 2015Nice venue. Shows are first come, first serve general admission seating. Waitresses are happy to take your drink orders at you're seat. Not too pricey for drinks.
Alex RandowApril 6, 2013Great concert venue! Wished I had known you could call the box office after tickets were purchased to get reserved seating.
MazdaNovember 1, 2010One of Chicago's best equipped multimedia facilities, this historic theatre has been an integral part of the entertainment scene since it opened in the 1920's.
KarenOctober 27, 2014Fairly intimate venue with great acoustics, but chairs on the main floor can be cramped and are very uncomfortable.
ThrillistJuly 26, 2012Go out with a bang at Hotel Thrillist’s closing party 7/28 10p-1:30a. You knew we had to check out some time!- ThrillistJuly 26, 2012PUG$ ATOMZ, Meat Number 5, and DJ Intel live at Hotel Thrillist 7/28 10p-1:30a? Let’s get weird!
Elephant DroidJuly 14, 2013$15 minium per person for comedy show I went to. Had one beer for 1+ hour comedy show. Ended up buying two instead of paying $15 for one.
- Elephant DroidJuly 14, 2013The inside looks beautiful when you walk in but was less and less impressed. Can the chairs be anymore uncomfortable? No. It is not possible.
Best venue in Chicago. Spend the extra cash and reserve a booth ahead of time for a show.

"I've been to some amazing concerts here. It's nice that there's a ton of seating on the balcony, though it means the fairly small floor can be horribly over-packed. Practically next to the L."

"Beautiful vintage venue with striking architecture. Good music picks but so-so audio. Entry is easy with covid vaccine, ticket check, and security search. Takes 20-30 minutes to exit after a show."

"I love Subt because it's a great place to see decent-to-amazing live music for pretty cheap (usually $8 - $15) lots of local bands and good indie/underground national acts. The beer selection is OK."
