Lucky Horseshoe Lounge

This place is a mess. People must come here for the go-go dancers cause it’s sure ain’t for the service. This place is under staff and the bartenders scam you for tips. I ordered 5 shots for me and my friends from one bartender and the bartender must have had amnesia because he never made them and started making drinks for other people. I went to a different bar to order drinks and when I paid.. the little machine to pay forces you to pay 25% tip or higher. The “custom” and “no tip” button don’t work. So I was forced to pay 25% tip. Don’t recommend this place unless you want to see some go go dancers.

As a solo traveler, this place was a great stop. The music is good. The talent is friendly. And the bartender Matthew is very nice and welcoming. Will definitely be back my next time in Chicago.

Cute place. However, they need one or two more bartenders. Especially at the “back” bar, AND when you pay.. the tip amount is shady. 25% or more. lol can’t click anything else weirdly… but other than, Gogo boy were cute. Good verity. And USUALLY good music.

One of my favorite places to go - I imagine it's similar to what queer nightlife might've been like a few decades ago. Places like this are difficult to find even in other major cities in the country. I recommend it if you're a queer person (particularly male identifying, most of the crowd is). Please don't bring your bachelorette parties here - it's not a space for that.

Will definitely be back. The lion's share of the dancers were getting into it. The only thing is that the dancers seemed to be at the mercy of the DJ, so some of them were more into the tracks they got than others. Lap dances were 10/10

Only stopped by for a bit for a couple of drinks as I was checking out all the bars during my visit. It seemed like the guys paying for lap dances were having a good time I guess - so if that's your thing, seems like you get your money's worth.

Don’t go here if you want the most horrible service. We were there last night and our bartender Tony was extremely nasty the moment we walked it. He did not even acknowledge us when we sat down, continuously ignoring us. He then CLAPPED on our face in a rude matter way saying “I’ll take your order” and after that we did not want him to, rightfully so, so we left the bar. Also, the bartender discriminate against women here, they will treat you like garbage if you’re a woman. I told the other bartender we wanted shots he replied with “make it simple” this is disgusting. Worst experience ever. Please go to better fun bars, this place is NOT worth it.

It is usually the first bar we hit on our night out. My husband and I have been coming here since 2001, when I brought him out to the clubs and places to buy LGBTQ shirts, etc. He was like a kid in a candy store. So getting back to the bar, we have always been treated well. Not every stripper comes out way, but some do. We have had some great conversations with these young men and one even helped us out with places to eat and to go. The bartenders have been nice to us too. I guess it helps to tip them too. I recommend checking it out. It's not for everyone and it's nothing fancy, but we always can stop and let our hair down so to speak before we go dancing or see a show. It's a great place to start or end the evening.
