    Private bay
    Nicole B.

    I was a bit apprehensive at first being a beginner golfer, but had the best experience at five iron. I went for their women's history month event and I must say it exceeded all of my expectations. We were nicely greeted, we were led to a private bay (for this event), and were given complementary glasses of champagne ( which was a pleasant surprise!). We mentioned we were beginner golfers at the Front Desk and the attendant sent over a coach to give us a short lesson. It was great, Kyle was great! The vibe was awesome! Once you enter, you will be instantly ready to have a great time.

    Perfect place if you a golf lover or if you want to hang out with the friends . There it's also a ping pong table and a shuffle board, darts and a pole table. Food it's very good and if you are a member you have a lot of amazing discounts and offers, like free hours to play in certain days. The food it's good and they have all the variety of drinks. I don't recommend the cocktails tho it's not the place to have it. The place it's very spacious and in the middle it's a big bar so if you wanna watch a game there are tv all over . But what I most love about this place it's that almost very bay it's having couches so it's so cozy makes you feel like you're hanging out with your friends in your living room. Totally recommend this place.

    Came here for a birthday event and had a blast. The golf simulation was out of this world! Five Iron Golf is located in the River North district of Chicago. The entrance is a bit hidden and it's off the beaten path. Yet, at least it's away from the tourist traps. When you enter you are greeted with a nice, clean vibe. The staff was professional and tended to all needs. They stopped by many times to help us set up, troubleshoot, and ask us for drinks. Amazing service. There are many bay areas yet they're spaced out in a way where you don't feel crowded. The bar is centrally located and convenient to everyone. Many TVs will play different sports channels at once. The bar had solid drink options. Many macro beers with a few locals on draft. Drinks were actually cheap at the $-$$ range. And there are a few other options for those not inclined to golf. There is a pool, table shuffleboard, and a mini area for putting practice. I can see myself hanging out here more often with groups of friends. It's like a guy's dream man cave. Prices for the simulator were a bit pricey. Yet, with the integration of hardware and software, I understand paying for the technology and service. Also, it's better than trying to play golf during the Chicago winter season. As for the simulators themselves, I found it quite accurate. It was fun to whack a ball and practice your swing. Yet, one area of improvement was the putting. Putting was a hassle and finicky. Yet, there are ways to change the settings to make it easier. 5/5. Definitely coming back and recommending it. A unique experience that was a ton of fun. Offerings outside of the simulator were also well done. Great place to hang out with the guys, watch sports, and play (virtual) golf.

    First time trying it out! Treated my friend who golfs for Father's Day gift. It was a nice spot and not crowded like other golf places. I parked in a near by parking garage but there was some street parking surprisingly on a Friday at 7 pm. The decor was chic and clean the stay was very attentive and friendly. Food and drinks very reasonable and pretty tasty! We had the boneless buffalo wings and seasoned waffle fries. Only thing was the air conditioning was out so it was pretty warm inside but the staff was so accommodating he placed a floor fan right near us. I would definitely go back and With a group would be fun also. Even with the broken air conditioning i gave it a 5!

    This sports bar has good food, excellent service, and is reasonably priced. We came here to watch…read morethe NFL playoffs. Every seat in the house has a good view of a widescreen TV with the game on. The bar has a cozy, casual vibe. On game day it's very loud; if you plan to chat with your group you'll be shouting to be heard! I highly recommend the chicken Caesar wrap. I had low expectations since this is a sports bar but this is probably the best chicken Caesar wrap I've had in my life. In light of how good this meal was I plan to return soon and try the rest of the menu. I also had a cocktail that was tasty and cheaper than some of the drinks on offer from nearby bars ($13).

    Excellent bar. It's about time a good hoosiers bar opens up on this street. Great location,…read moreambiance, music, service, and drinks. There is an upstairs area that's a little more loungier whereas the downstairs can get more rowdy on game day. We came during the championship game, and this was the perfect spot to be. We came early to be able to snag some bar seats upstairs and enjoy multiple drinks and food. Drinks are great - some cocktails and beers are only offered downstairs. Food was a mix: Chimichurri cauliflower: smaller portion than I expected, nothing special I'd skip this dish. Ceasar salad: dressing is very heavy on the anchovy paste, otherwise good portion and veggies. Loaded fries: huge portion with lots of great toppings, though I wish their fries were more 'fry' like versus potato skin-like. Chicken tenders: I got this with sweet potato fries, and they were way too salty. The chicken tenders were 4 skimpy pieces of chicken, and I was charged for extra dipping sauces and ketchup. The spicy mango habanero and buffalo are good - skip the garlic parmesan. I will most definitely be back for the vibes, drinks, and service. I'm hoping the food is just working on some kinks and will get better the next time!

    Kari's Rating 8.5/10…read more TLDR: -Sports themed bar with many TVs -Interesting variety of appetizers -Bathrooms look like a prison Came in for drinks about 6:30pm on a Wednesday and it wasn't too crowded since it was a bit early. I think there were some kind of corporate happy hour happening in the back, but a friend and myself just came in for quick drinks. I usually don't drink on the weekdays, so I ended up just getting an iced tea and him a tequila soda, but because I don't drink, we decided to get an appetizer and we browsed the menu for a minute and ended up splitting the Parmesan chicken egg rolls. Truthfully, I really just wanted to see what that would entail because it seemed a little disgusting or maybe even some kind of high-food, but to my surprise, it was actually a really crispy skinned pizza roll. I'm pretty sure it had been previously frozen, but in that moment- served with a side of marinara, I didn't really care. It was full of gooey melted mozzarella cheese and almost like a breaded chicken nugget center. Pretty decent as far as bar food goes. They also had crab rangoon to which I thought, "hmm are they doing a little too much?!" I'm sure drunk me would have gotten them years ago so what can ya do. Overall, quite a positive experience. The bartender was really sweet and everything wasn't super expensive. I've been in the neighborhood for such a long time, but I've actually never been here and I'm glad I came on a night that it wasn't chaotic.
