What People Are Saying About Holiday Club
The Editor

Citysearch
It's hard to miss this place, with its flashy, shimmering sequin sign on a gritty corner of Uptown. Inside, it's a retro shrine to Sinatra-era swankiness--all formica tables, glittery vinyl banquettes and early '60s movie posters. A cool, low-maintenance mix of neighborhood hipsters congregates most nights. The basic bar food menu is extensive but typical: nachos, thin-crust pizza, sandwiches and fries drenched in processed cheese. A pool table and Golden Tee machine keep the players busy, while a jukebox, photo booth and Rat Pack-era flicks on the TVs offer further diversions. –
Great Bar Food Menu
by Drinkwench at Citysearch
If you're a 50-something Rat-Pack-lover, 20 something Punk Rocker or Yuppie climbing the corporate ladder-you'll fit in at the Holiday Club. This place is one of the few remaining long-time-non-corporate-type-bars left in the city. Though it started in Wicker Park in the early 90's, it's now found a home in Uptown. The cool part about the location is it's right at the Sheridan El, 1 minute from LSD and 4 blocks North of Wrigley Field-easy to get to but far enough away from the frat boy scene. The menu has great bar food and $5 food specials every night-generous portions feature award winning BBQ wings(wing lovers don't miss this stop), burgers, pizza, salads & solid down home american fare. They've got a SUPER Sunday brunch, too. You can't beat the entertainment either-old school juke box with great tunes, retro photo booth, pool table, outdoor patio, video games and nightly fun in the back room like Karaoke, Open Mic, New Wave Friday's. Chill out at the Holiday Club because it won't disappoint!
- Pros: Good Prices, Atmosphere, Food Selection
- Cons: Parking
Rude Staff

Walked in and got hassled from the doorman. Then couldnt get a drink but the bar was practically empty.
Great Neighborhood Hangout - Portion Size!
by chrisegilbert at Citysearch
After getting off the el, I have to cross the street on the way home to avoid the temptation of spending all Thursday/Friday night enjoying good quality fun on their sidewalk patio. However, Holiday Club's best attribute is the healthy portion of better than average bar food. The location/atmosphere/staff rates par for the course - I've never had a bad experience.
- Pros: Portion Size, Size of Bar/Restaurant, Patio Dining, Neighborhood Location
