WORST CLUB IN CHICAGO!!

by Klubbgoer

arrived at Religion at 11pm because the text message i recieved offered free entry before 11 and discounted entry until midnight. The promotors purposely kept people waiting outside past 11 o'clock to avoid letting the large crowd in for free. The club advertises four levels to party, but the first level was cordoned off and they weren't allowing people in that area at all. It took me 30 minutes to valet my vehicle because the valet service was very slow and i sincerely doubt they even had a lot to park the cars, I'm quite sure they were just taking everyone's $15 and parking your vehilcle wherever they could find spaces on the street near the club. I waited in line for ONE AND A HALF HOURS only to be told when I reached the front of the line that the club was at capacity and the 100+ individuals waiting outside would not get in, which seems impossible because it was only 1 am and the club is open until 5. The security outside the club began to push the people on the sidewalk and curse at us all to leave. I was not reimbursed for the valet service even though I never got inside the club. I WILL NEVER GO TO RELIGION AGAIN and i urge you all to spend your money elsewhere. THIS IS THE WORST CLUB IN CHICAGO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its Ok

Very trendy place howeva...I'm not cool with guys going into a club with gym shoes and T's with any type of graphics. Not even if they are fake Armani shirts. That Euro sneaker and T look does not go well at a club. They're should be rules and I expect that at a sports bar not at a club downtown. So get it together at Religion. Plus I noticed they turned away minorities with similar wear and let in the Caucasian males with no problem. YES BOUNCERS I SAW AND HEARD YOU TURN THEM AWAY AND ALSO GIVE THEM RULES. I WAS WAITING FOR MY CAR JACK A** AND WITNESSES THE ENTIRE THING. MANAGEMENT SHOULD BE ASHAMED AND NEEDS TO STEP IT UP.

Music doesn?t get good until around midnight, but then it's pretty good. The place is decorated awesome and has a great view. The stairs how ever makes me a little nervous. Alcohol and long a** stairs spells disaster and law suits. Elevators!!! They need to do what Vision and Excalibur do and let us cross from 720's to Religion.

Pipe Organ DJ Booth?

by Sarah2Go

I went there last weekend with a few of my girlfriends after dinner. We got right in and the place was really crowded. The tall ceilings make it seem a lot bigger and give it a very different look than any other place we have been. I really like the dance music they play because it's not the same stuff you hear in places every single weekend. My girlfriends and I enjoy the loft where we can dance and look down on the crowd and not have to be bothered by creepy guys. We did have to wait a bit for drinks but I guess that?s normal. Best of all I think is that the DJ booth looks like some kind of funky pipe organ. I am definitely going back for my sister?s birthday.

• Pros: Great Energy and very cool space
• Cons: Sometimes there was a line to get drinks
