Ive been going to the Tonic Room for the last couple of months and i think its one of the hottest spots near depaul. The atmosphere is really relaxed, theres no cover, drinks are reasonable, and the DJ is phenomenal.

Thursday nights are ridiculous. I have been there the last 3 or 4, who can remember. Sad to see the regular Chi-town girls go back to school, but hopefully the DePaul ladies fill in quick and keep this place rockin. You can't go wrong with $2.50 well drinks, can you? It gets packed sometimes, but the service seems to be OK all the time. Try it out...

The problem is that DJ Emo likes to spin the same mix every Saturday night. Other than that, this place is pretty good, but I recommend not going on Saturday nights unless you like hearing the same songs, in the same order.

i freakin love this place and have been going back so often that i had to comment. the bartenders and djs are fun and friendly, the music is always good, and the crowd is laid back and there to have fun, not look cute or trendy. where else can you start fake dance-offs with people you don't even know and not look like a total idiot? if you are out for the meat market, go elsewhere. this place is just for chill kids looking to have a blast.

Great place to hang out...
