Sweet little underground venue, lines were nonexistent when I arrived at 11:30 or so. This was the only club I went to the two nights I was in Chicago, and I was not disappointed. Bouncers expedited the entry process without any issue. Bartender was nice, recognized me and greeted me on my second night there. Water is $5 per bottle, but I do recall seeing someone get his empty glass filled with tap water and ice free of charge. They also have the comfiest sofa to chill at which does not require booking a table and yet still has a great view of the dance floor / DJ booth. Additionally, worth noting is a nice old man who attends the bathroom sink and squirts soap in your hands, who then provides you with a paper towel. Finally, ventilation and cooling are adequate; there are several spots on the dance floor where conditioned air blows down from above, but if you need, there’s also a fan in the back with a lot more space to chill. However, of note is their no-reentry policy, regardless, there is a cordoned off outdoor zone immediately outside the venue in which you can chill and reenter from I think.

I recently attended the NTO event at Spybar and as someone on the spectrum that loves techno it was a really nice event to attend. Nobody made me feel weird for sitting around for awhile until some of my favorites came on. It was nice to attend a event alone and the crowd there felt very comfortable and inclusive. It was a great space to dance in and move around in. The security was also really nice at check in and just in general around the event noticing them interact with people. The staff was really warming too and friendly. Personally I loved the vibe but I know it's not like anything seen online or overseas. I've seen a few different styles but so far this club was most "user friendly" I've been to. Personally think it's fantastic for Chicago's crowd and first time clubbers. Highly recommend finding out if a favorite artist you love is playing there.
