Exit

Oh the Exit, this place has been going for years. Not for the faint of heart, this old school club/dive bar is still going strong after 30 years. Nothing fancy here but they do have some decent craft beers on tap. Dance the night away listening to Danzig, Nine Inch Nails, Misfits, they might throw in some old school industrial,metal, or punk rock. They have all kinds of happenings upstairs, from blacklight parties to S&M nights, a few weeks ago we checked out one of their bondage parties. I love this place and I hope it rocks on for another 30 years.

Sticky floors, expensive drinks, and loud music: the three components of any good Chicago bar. I love the dark industrial/metal music playing downstairs. Might as well play some pool while youre there.

Coolest bar i have ever been to! The vibe is great and i love the music they play and the movies they play. Staff was very interactive and super chill. Cant wait to go back!

Where else can you request Hold Your Children Close and Pray For Oblivion on a Sunday night and have it playedExcellent ambiance

Super cool dive bar. Open late with a great atmosphere. The staff here are super nice and very tolerable of your foolishness once you start drinking. Theyve got some pretty tasty drinks as well. On top of all of that they also play awesome music. This is my favorite bar hands down

I was really happy to hear that they were closing. Heres hoping they never get it open again. I can confirm what some of these other one star reviews have said. A few years back I lost my phone and wallet at the downstairs bar. Instead of helping me find it, they cursed at me for asking them about it, and then kicked me out. I kid you not.Im pretty sure one of the bartenders stole it. Not only because it was two bartenders and a security guard who kicked me out after I asked for help finding my items, but because my items MYSTERIOUSLY RESURFACED a week later after Id called the police on them and threatened litigation.On a separate note, the cover to get upstairs was never worth it and the DJs were trash. Not only were they trash, but theyll curse you out if you request a song. Zero professionalism, crime, and dirty bathrooms. Steer clear.

If you like leather, metal, dark styles, this is the place for you. Even the weekdays are a lot of fun, but the weekends are even crazier. Gets a bit crowded then, but people love the joint. They have a pool table as well and two floors. Open late. A lot of fun!

This place has been closed for years but I had one of the best nights of my life here.

So much fun... Next time I need to get chained up as well! They know what theyre doing and how to have a good time with it. The bartender was also very sweet and friendly. I will definitely be back and soon.

I went there last Saturday night and paid $10 to go upstairs. It was dead so my friend and I went back downstairs to ask for our money back so we can go somewhere else. The bouncer kept refusing to give our money back even though we were only there for 5 minutes. He told us it would be another 2 hours before it would start picking up, but we didnt want to waste our time. We asked for a manager and he never called for one and was only on his phone trying to ignore us. We spent more time asking for a manager than we spent upstairs. Then he eventually told us he will give us back $5 each. I was highly dissatisfied with the customer service that night. This place looks cool, and it seems like it could be fun. However, based on my experience that night Im giving it the lowest rating. Paying $10 to walk up and down the stairs is ridiculous.

What a wonderful show. Came to the Superhero/villian night, one of the many themed nights you have, and it was a treat for my first time coming. The demonstrations were great. Service was fairly quick and friendly up in the cage, not sure about the other bars, but she was rocking it. Upset that I came in costume, but still had to pay the cover charge despite advert saying otherwise.

Loved the atmosphere, very biker-esque. Definitely a good choice for those of you who enjoy hard rock music and hole-in-the-wall bars that offer far more than first glance. Come for the retro video gaming if anything! Totally worth it!

Absolutely loved this place. Loved the vibe. Seems almost hidden with the giant metal door. Two areas down stairs and upstairs. Each with its own vibe, that changes every night. Drinks are extremely well priced. PBR tall boys are between 2 to 4 bucks. Sure theyre cheaper at stores but its a price Im OK with paying. Compared to other bars Ive been to.I was visiting Chicago for a weekend and I had to come back twice. Sadly we dont have anything like this in Arizona and I truly wish we did. If I do go back to Chicago Ill definitely be coming back to this place.

Great music and drinks. The serving staff has always been excellent and they always draw a good crowd for any event. Best night is Thursday Bondage a Go Go, but at any time you can go there and find something interesting!

Great dive-y punk bar open late in the city. Theres a unique atmosphere here where all the punks, goths, wiccans, and weirdos come to hang out and if you come in with an open mind youll love it. Downstairs is the bar and upstairs is the dance floor. Every time I come here I always have fun and meet great people. Last time was the Halloween party and costume contest. Lots of originality and cheap drinks.

Ive been here about two or three times now on Thursdays. Would like to check out one of their metal nights but my friends always insist on Thursdays for the BDSM night that happens on the second floor. The music is always banging though and their drinks are reasonably priced. Even got free pizza from someone once. Its definitely my type of bar and the crowd is always really cool. Its a little bit out of my way but I always have a great time. Definitely going to continue going

Ive never been to a punk rock/metal bar before. Went her for NYE. This was a pretty cool exotic place. All of the staff members i talked to were friendly people and its a fun unique experience. Definitely will visit here again!

You like grungy, underground bars? This place is for you! My first time there I got to watch the movie Train Spotters and some strange pornography followed. Never have I been to a bar like this. The upstairs is a dance floor and two bars. The upstairs bathroom is was nicer than the downstairs one too, just a heads up there. Overall, its worth the trip. Even if its not your typical place, I recommend going just to get a taste of what Exit is like.

We celebrated our friends birthday very recently and have nothing but great things to say. We hit the upstairs dance floor and were immediately swept up by the music and energy.The bar staff was very friendly and ensured we all had a good time, keeping us properly hydrated as we worked the dance floor.Thank you, Exit!

Lots of dark lighting and loud rock/industrial/punk music. Cover charge for the upstairs after 12, but it was only $5. Great place if you understand why youre going there: to drink and rock out.

A very authentic local punk bar that has been around since the early eighties. It definitely has an atmosphere that radiates this fact. It has metal and punk music playing all the time downstairs and upstairs has different music depending on the night. The walls look decrepit and look like they have an inch thick layer of grime and sutt. It does look theyve made some improvements over time but it is far from a high class place.

Great punk rock/metal bar. Doesnt really pick up til much later in the night, around 1 am or so. Music varies night to night, check facebook to find out what is playing what night. Upstairs is a DJ and dancing mostly with two smaller bars. And the 1st floor is the main bar. Drinks are average to cheap. Bartenders friendly and punk rock. Every time Ive gone with friends Ive had a blast. Love this joint.

Was an amazing 2-level dive bar/club where you could hear punk, metal, and rock on the 1st floor and techno, house, & industrial on the second floor. Really had something for everyone and nothing else like it in the city. Post-pandemic, its a private party bottle service / hookah lounge that I hear is charging absurd covers at the door even though it hasnt been renovated or anything and is the same dive it was before. Total shame - yeah they made it through the pandemic but at the cost of what made the place special. Ill be holding onto my memories. Theres still some good people working there but I doubt itll be the same ever again.

If you love dark creepy bars that play good music, then you will love this place.

I had lots of fun and our bill was very reasonable. Service was quick and we never went thirsty, for better or worse.. ;) I know its part of the fun but its definitely a dive bar, so get in the right mindset for that. Dont expect valet or bathroom attendents lol.. Really fun crowd, depending on your taste.. All in all I had an amazing night even though when I came home I had to shower immediately!

Went to a deep dub/space music show in the upstairs area at Exit last night. It was my first time anywhere near this place. The sound wasnt great, the drinks were meh, and the place was grimey as hell. But I definitely still had fun👍

Sunday nights, love the Metal. Thursday night, love the ladies. The drinks are good. The music is different each night. But dont take your mother here, she wont like it, unless she is covered with tattoos and likes chicks.

A good loud punk rock bar. Cheap drinks, great music, fairly clean bathroom. Several bartenders, so getting a drink is no problem. Parking could be tricky, Uber or try your luck on one of the side streets. Do not park at the home depot.

Went during techno night and had the greatest night ever! Atmosphere was inviting, the bartenders were patient, entertainment [go go dancers] were so fun that I wanted to join them, and the price for the upstairs wasnt expensive at all. I cant wait to go back, whenever that is!

Easily my favorite dive bar in Chicago. They have great music downstairs and lots of variety upstairs including events throughout the week. Heads up the vibe is not for everyone but youd never feel unwelcomed.

This place is not a fancy bar like you would find down in the Loop. It is the type of hole in the wall bar a friendly atmosphere that keeps you coming back though. I would say its not a place everyone would like unless they are open minded. They do have burlesque shows on Thursdays, as well as the DJd music that goes on many nights. What I do enjoy most about this place though is the fact that I can ride my Harley here and park up on the side walk.

Went there last night this bar is pretty cool never been upstairs to the bondage show or whatever they have up there I was very upset Because one other security was very rude and threatened to break my phone because he thought I was taking pictures first of all if they don’t want you to take pictures up there they should have a sign I was new to this bar and had no idea you couldn’t take pictures Up there, there was no need for him to be that rude aggressive hostile He also got in my face and yelled at me this is very unprofessional they should really rethink about how they talk to their customers because after all we are bringing them business! They’re lucky I didn’t file a harassment complaint against him! Never again going to this Bar where they treat people so rude &disgusting they should really should fire this guy!!

A Gothic 4:00am (maybe even 5:00am) bar, while not my style gets a high rating because people there are actually really nice! Would recommend if you are looking for a new/different experience, not for everyone though.

This place is POPPIN. Atmosphere is awesome for those into the metal/punk/hard rock scene. Drinks are decently strong, but its all about the performances going on! Check it out!!!

This is one of my favorite bars in the city. A dive Metal/Punk bar hidden behind a metal door adorned with graffiti. The inside feels like a descent into hell in the best way, with skulls across the walls and dark Amber lighting. Upstairs is the club where every Thursday they have BDSM nights for those who are looking for something more adventurous, you can even voulenteer yourself to be punished. Playing industrial and metal bangers until 4am Exit is my favorite haunt for good music, good people and hellish vibes.

This venue is a hit or miss. The first 2 times I went was not so interesting but the most recent in had a blast, great people. Also, someone brought a stuffed animal, enough said!

Not a bad place! Good crowds and drink list isnt isnt too terrible either. Suggestion from friends though... Dont touch the walls :) ;) definitely contains years of...interesting

The best alternative metal bar ever! Great dive bar with friendly staff and incredible weekly events. Cant find anything else like it. Very welcoming and cheap without being staff infection cheap

Is this the Happiest place on earth?? It happens to be the oldest punk bar and has been around for 30 years...Probably not, but if you have an out of towner that is up for adventure then take them here. This place is open till 4 AM 365 days a year from 9 PM to 4 AMIf you need to go for a weekday adventure then take a jounery to the S&M Thursdays. Your mind will be blown...

Went on Saturday with 80s music on the second floor. Was the best fun I had in a long time, will be visiting again. Only thing its $5 to go upstairs to the dance floor. Just a heads up about that.

Interesting place. Has been around for a long time. They do a lot of different events here and we even played on the punching machine for a bit. Place was packed and seems to draw in a lot of people. Over all if you are looking for something different. This is the place.

I was expecting a bustling live music scene but was sorely disappointed. The bar was all but empty the entire time we were there and there was also no live music at all. The bar tender was very friendly though and did his best.

Tired of listening to Chris Brown and Rhianna on loop? Exit may be the place for you, then. Lots of different themed nights to satisfy most people in the alt/non-hiphop scene here in Chicago. The wife and I like to come for the people watching... Weve met some really awesome people at this place.

We stumbled upon this place while visiting Chicago, and it was one of the best stumbles we ever made. The bartender, Amy, was amazing, she recommended a bunch of places for us to check out, and she was super friendly and a blast to talk to. She introduced us to the Chicago Handshake and now my wife is hooked on Malort (i say eww! But she likes it lol)The atmosphere here is awesome, everyone was super friendly and we met a lot of cool new people.Loved the fact that there was a drag show going on on the upper floor of this punk bar, nice bit of variety there!

Went there for my birthday on Saturday night. The bouncer at the door tried stealing my birthday gift, and put his hands on a girl I was with. Very disappointed, I use to go here all the time, I have never dealt with a doorman like this.

Great place to have some drinks and have a great night. Staff is mostly friendly. Parking area not far and theres usually open spots. Rock and roll section downstairs and techno upstairs.

Its a rock bar. What do you expect from there? Made lots of memories and met lots of great people there. I hope they open back up one day. 🙏

Literally a rock bar, with a second floor playing 80s jams. Not too bad. The crowd could be a little different if your not used to that kind of vibe. Overall good experience.

Please stay closed. Just let it die like that Exit Summit place.Remember when they did rap parties with $60 covers lmfao. What a joke....

Its something different compared to chicagos regular club scene. It has a lot of character on the inside and depending on what night you go the music and dancing is awesome. Its a cool place to try ......No Cover......

Would’ve given the 5 stars but the night I went there after about 3 drinks I went outside for a cigarette, when I tried to come back inside the security guard had said I was outside drinking a bottle. (I didn’t even have water with me when I went outside). He said they had it in the camera but when I asked him to show me he just ignored me and kicked me out.

Great people, great fun scene!

Closed at 4am, for the freaks and weirdos, a great place, is missed very much. Sad to see Chicago turning puss.

The atmosphere is great for the punk, metal, biker scene, theres 2 different floors, drinks are moderately priced(its in crook county) I havent had a bad time there yet

This trashy establishment employs people who verbally abuse and disrespect their patrons. Blatantly calling them fat, ugly, and stupid. The bouncer/manager who showed such horrible etiquette even recommended that this review be left. That level of malicious behavior is unacceptable and appalling. The bar is disgusting and is without a doubt violating several health codes. So many great punk bars in Chicago, but this one is just an embarrassment to the scene. Do not go here.

Love the music. Different scenery on different days. I always have a good time here. A bit pricey but still fun.

Great hole in the wall former biker bar. Good people. Unique atmosphere. My favorite small bar/club to hit up on monday night.

Look, I had my 21st birthday here, my engagement here and now my divorce here, place is great music the same audience much younger now, good people fun times if you are willing to risk looking at great times, piercings and tats.

Great music,friendly staff. Upstairs open now so two venues in one.Go on Sunday see Rodney dj hes awesome.

Never noticed a more eclectic or diverse group of people and it was awesome! Drink prices are up there, but I believe its cuz its open til 4am EVERYDAY!

Exit is a wild place my group often calls it the black hole because you can easily loose track of time and spend the whole night here whether its on the top floor with the dj or on the main floor rocking out to classic tunes this is amazing place and everyone should go atleast once in there life time

Hole in the wall bar. Service was good because it was slow but it smelled like booze and the floors were sticky. Techno music was playing upstairs which I thought was odd because this is supppose to be a punk bar.

The best alternative nightclub in Chicago. The scene is always different, accepting, and ready to get weird. Never had a bad time here. Show up late. Go upstairs

Such a fun heavy metal/punk bar!! Love the vibe. If you like heavy music this place is great.

Great place for music. The upstairs is spacious. Theres 3 bars all together, cool staff, and dope art everywhere.

Had a blast at Saturday nights show. Me and my friends where in heaven. Jules is the best thanks for the memories everyone.

Chill vibe. The best time to go is after 12 unless you like being in empty bar. Drinks very from $4-$12 also if you use credit card its $20 minimum +tip

Crazy place! We were in town for Riot Fest and looking for something similar to what we would do at home. FOUND IT! Definitely on our list of places to go when we’re in Chicago!

It was definitely different punk kind of bar not somewhere to dress up or go dancing but met some pretty cool ppl there

This place is always a great time! One of the last of its breed. If youre looking for out of the ordinary night out definitely hit this place up.

A punk themed bar. Wont call it a punk bar. Always enjoyed the upstairs. Great bartenders. Their Bondage a Go Go night is always disappointing.

This place is super dope!!!!!!!!$ If you wanna bring out your wild side or freakish side or just have a dope as time, this is a great spot!!!!!! Mondays are dope as HELL!!!!!! 😉 I love to bring my freak side out once in awhile 😜

Dark and loud. theme nights. late hours. if you normally work late and are into punk, youll love it here. never been here before 12 tho tbh

This is the second time I come and it says in their website that it’s open. I get there and the doors are close , I also try calling and no answer. If this place is close shouldn’t they update their stuff. So unprofessional. This place is whack now. Don’t waste your gas coming to here.

This place is so cool! The atmosphere, the music, the people? amazing; definitely coming back when I visit again

If you are into Malort, PBR, and the most mixed crowd and events (bondage night, drag shows, jello wrestling) this place is for you. Open til 4am 365 days a year!!

Went on a thursday night and had a blast! Bar staff was funny and entertaining downstairs and upstairs was bondage night. Defintely a sight to see! Will go again!

This place used to be an awesome place to go. As of now, I would only go there and stay downstair at the punk rock bar, the only part of the bar that has never changed.

Spent the entire night upstairs for a techno event. Place was packed and the most fun Ive had in a long time. Props to the ihearttechno crew.

Biker/metal bar downstairs. Different things each night upstairs. Upstairs great for dancing, good sound system and great air conditioning.

Dark, dirty bar, pricey drinks, with hipsters galore! Bathrooms are gross, but the bartenders are awesome! 5 stars

Exit is Chicagos oldest punk bar and is super awesome! Thursday nights is Bondage-A-Go-Go and you simply cannot miss it.

Awesome bar, amazing atmosphere. I felt at home after one visit. Was there from opening at 9 until close at 5.

Not as cool as it used to be. Its more of a night club with a very contrived, pop music-infused commercial flavor to it now. Not a punk bar anymore.

I loved this place!!! The club upstairs had only a $5 admission and was wild. I’ll be back again sometime soon.

Michael Trouche is incredibly knowledgeable about his city. He limits his walking tours to 20 people and winds up and down small streets and little alley ways talking about history, architecture the people - the who, what, when, where and why. His tour is not memorized it is part of who he is. If you have a question, ask him! His knowledge about Charleston and American History is so deep and wide, he will give you a complete answer and never bore you with unnecessary information. His tour is a perfect pace. We looked in numerous shops for a book that would not be all pictures and would not be all history. Michael wrote the perfect book for us - Charleston - Then and Now. But, he didnt tell us about it! We had to learn about it from the fine ladies at the Historical Association gift shop. If youve ever enjoyed listening to Rick Steves talk about a city - Michael Trouche is the Rick Steves equivalent for Charleston!

Great venue. Always doing something throughout the week. Come out to free Wednesday nights at 11!

Yeah we were from out of town I guess sometimes it has a good bands run the holidays not sure all in all good time

Fetish nights on Thursday are pretty cool too bad I work so much. Ill be coming back for blacklight blackout and 80s nights for sure.

The oldest and more punk rock / metal bar in Chicago. Be aware of the upstairs. Sometimes there are techno nights there.

Into Goth, industrial or punk? Exit is for you! With theme nights ranging from viking to s&m. Have some drinks, make a wide range of new friends and have a wild night.

Great place, one of the spookiest toilets in Chicago!

Always, and I mean ALWAYS a good time!! If youre lucky enough to catch Binks spinnin tunes; youre in for a good night!!!

Might not be in everyones comfort zone but its definitely a great bar. Thursdays are extra fun.

Had a lot of fun there my first time. Hope 2 play there again soon. Shouts out 2 the iHeartTechno crew.

Interesting place ...upstairs hip hop scene surprisingly a dope little spot also holds a pool table 🎱

Exit is the weirdest bar in the best way.Your outcasts can be found here and they are funner than your Wrigleyville crowd.

Not a fan. Judgement spewed. Their bartenders like hate and uncomfortably in the work scene, education is necessary for em or you need to be ready for their indifferent assumptions, trying to fight.

Metal sunday was awesome. Staff is very friendly! Most fun I had in Chicago.

Terrible experience. The manager has an attitude and will get mad about anything you say and will stop you at the door if he feels disrespected. Do not come here.

Seedy shady bar, came here for the metal. The beer is cheap, thats all. And they dont have any food, if youve got the munchies, you need to go outside to a store, eat and then come back to your beer

Best all around left over rock bar. Very few left over. Great music drinks, interesting crowd.

For 5 bucks a ticket you can watch gross people perform boring sex acts on eachother upstairs and get drinks after 2am. Not worth it.

They only accepted cash, I waited so long to get in I actually left.. if Im paying $750 there should be no wait for me and my guest 🤷🏾‍♀️

Such a seedy underground club full of history... Great techno nights by Ihearttechno crew.. Drinks are priced competitively

Was there for the first time last night. Had a great time! Music and atmosphere was great

Best place to forget what you did last night! and meet up with tons of people you know in the Metal & Punk scene when everything else is closed

Great place to party. Obligatory piss smell included for an even more eclectic experience!

Loud punk rock music, alcohol and one fist fight broke out. Loved the design and its open late!

Totally greatness!! Punk meets a grimey soul full of cheap drinks and satisfying fun

Cool place. I love the love shows. Decent prices. Bartenders are pretty cool too.

This one of of my Favorite bars! Old school punk/metal bar... I have to make a stop in everytime Im up that direction in Chicago.

4 am bar 2 floors of music and with a very diverse mix of people. Always a good time.

Great dance and music spot. it is a dive bar, so expect the grimiest and best time

Cool bar off the beaten path that hosts a nice techno night. Freindly staff and not too busy.

Bartenders are very charismatic and friendly. Loved the environment. Had a great time.

The first floor plays Metallica music while the second floor has DJs mixing it up on the dance floor.

Great bar, but the door guys need an attitude adjustment...youre not in the joint anymore fellas! lmao

Did a quick hit and run decent place enviorment might not be suited for some individuals who can not handle there liquor,courteous staff and acomodations,will stop here again when i decide to visit area!

Interesting place to visit if you are looking for something different to do your Thursday night :)

In town for weekend and ended up here randomly. Very edgy vibe.. felt at home and welcomed at the Exit Bar.

This place has seriously lost its luster.. I used to love this place. But I doubt Ill ever go back now.

Awesome place. They have delicious Malort. They also have upstairs events. Epic!

The inside of this place is awesome. The music is thrash as well. Hellava place to hang out, drink, and rage.

Open till 5 am on weekends. Place is amazing. Except for the stupid raver kids upstairs.

Great bar, awesome music taste, crazy fun people.

If you like metal music this is the place for you on Sunday night.Great time

It was cool when It was a metal bar now its something else go see for yourself

It’s a punk bar, but right now it’s only open to rented private parties and they have a valet.Very punk

It is dark and charming as hell.

Awesome place to go even on a week day . great music good beer .

Great late night bar! Always an interesting and fun crowd.

One of my favorite places to go out on Thursdays or the new event every second Friday.

Feels like home anytime Im here. Thursdays are the most fun though for bondage a go go.

Girls N Grunge Tuesday nights. Bar top dancing and pole performances. Love It!

One of the best metal / tech bars in Chicago, hit this place last on your night out. 4am!!!

One heck of a nice place amazing and strong drinks will be going back

One of my favorite spots for years for cheap beer, whiskey, and getting weird.

Simple rock bar place with paper shots and plastic cups. Lots of fun!

Its a lovable homie place where a family can sit down and enjoy a night out.

Nice music, drinks, and food! Safety procedures during Covid is good!

The music and the aesthetic are cool, is a classic.

Music was very good! Reminded me of my high school years, alternative music...

Last of the great metal bars. Great 90s vibe, and staff are great. Check this place out.

Love the family friendly Atmosphere here! You can even slide down a fire poll here!!!

If youve never been, you need to go just to say you were there. Upstairs bar is NOT the same as downstairs.

Best alternative bar in Chicago! If you like Rock, Metal and Punk this is the bar for you!

Is it late? Should you leave? Is there nothing but cheap booze and the best tunes? Yea, im gonna stick around. Thank you Exit Chicago

I have a lot of memories in this place and the memories keep coming! Gotta love a place that continues to keep the atmosphere fun!

Great bartenders, and door guys. Ive been going for years, and made friends that lasted for years here.

Best place in Chicago for rock on the first floor and house and techno and new wave upstairs

They have a great two floors. Have a drink and listen to house music.

1st time here after wanting to go for over a decade. Interesting setting and creative arts

Such a fun place for some of there late night events

Place is a great after hour joint. It’s a bit ratchet tho.

Great environment! But also sad they no longer have DDR

Great trash punk bar with awesome playlist, the whiskey was a bit expensive tho

Not a huge fan of bars in general, but this one is fairly fun.

Super grunge. Bras on the ceiling. Skulls on walls. I loved this place.

Hot topic with beer, grimey industrial feel. Kind of awesome, not for everyone.

Love the staff, the different nights, the everything. Been coming here for about 10 years

A truly alternative venue. I recommend the pyro show upstairs. Actually, I recommend all of Exit.

Fast family friendly and food just like wela or tia made it!!!

Great place for drinks and cute girls on a Monday night

Had a good time, good music and a great atmosphere

Love the vibes here! The bartender Kari is amazing!

Loved this place and the atmosphere! Great shows on Thursdays!

Late bar that’s open pretty late but can be a bit weird.

The staff tries really hard to make sure you enjoy an offbeat night

I love this grungy place! Punk music heaven and BDSM Thursday night

Great bar! bartenders are friendly! the staff in general is friendly!

Biker bar on the bottom with rock music, and the top floor is where I go for dance music.

My favorite haunt. It is what you make it out to be. You are the master of your own destiny.

Great spot two floors....different music styless

Everyone was super nice & welcoming! Great atmosphere

Pretty cool place. Itll be as fun as you make it.

Best crowd to be around, when it comes to industrial, metal, and all in-between.

Black light black out was fun

Exit is the best place I visited in Chicago. Thanx to all the staff you are awesome. What a fun place.

Great place to go for cheap drinks and variety of music styles

Safe Place for degenerates. Its a cool 4 am bar

Great metal/punk & Chicago House Music spot🎶

Friendly staff, dark alt décor, great entertainment.

Always a good place top go when you dont want the night to end.

Whoever manages this club should be fired. Nobody is dancing and they charge too much.

Perfect punk bar. Upstairs has a great dance floor

Good bar for those not looking for your normal night out

Great time. Enjoyed the show. Cool vibe.

I love the bra chandelier here. Totally a local punk bar.

Friendly staff, quick service, awesome music.

Had a great time. The DJ, Rodney, was the best.

I showed up in full plate armor on Halloween. Had a great time.

Any Sunday Metal night is a fun night !!!Best Sunday Ever!!!

Good drink prices and an awesome crowd and staff

Awesome place to have fun, enjoy and hand out

Staff has been always super friendly & has awesome character!!!

Punk rock haven in Chicago. Great for late late night drinks.

Lmfao yeah dude great place go on thursday night

Dimly lit, perfectly dark. Who doesnt love this decadence
