FITZGERALDS SIDEBAR

Nestled as a compact companion to the main venue, this space hosts a rotating roster of Chicago blues, jazz, and folk acts. The atmosphere is anchored by an expansive bar and a flexible, open-seating layout that distinguishes it from the ticketed, fully-seated areas nearby. While the energy is consistently high, the experience is defined by a distinct trade-off: the proximity to the stage often results in high-decibel performances. Guests pairing their music with a meal from the resident Babygold Barbecue should be aware that the table reservation process is frequently described as inconsistent.
