User Reviews for Garfield Park Conservatory

3 Star Rating: Average

this particular conservatory is hard to find and not in a great location. It is gorgeous, however, and with a little caution is worth the trip. There is another conservatory, in Lincoln Park, which is just as nice, also free, easier to find and has other fun things nearby (zoo, park, nature museum). I would recommend it over Garfield Park.

Pros: Free, Beautiful

Cons: Bad neighborhood, hard to find

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I went out to see the Chihuly exhibit and truly enjoyed myself. The conservatory itself is beautiful and lush--what a great place to visit in the dead of winter for a little dose of greenery.

Pros: Easy to get to

Editor's Review

A year-round refuge for those in need of a dose of greenery or a blast of desert air.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Parking

If the free lot connected to the conservatory is full, there's plenty of free parking in Garfield Park proper, just across Lake Street to the south.
