Originally, we stopped here just to wait for an uber, but we were really happy we decided to stay! It was such a fun decorated place and the employees were incredibly friendly. We got the Winter Green (w/o marshmallow) and Gin The Rough. We preferred the gin drink as it was as tasty as it was pretty to look at. Winter green was a delicious boozy hot chocolate drink, but it is very filling. We had fun playing and appreciated the fact there were multiple holes to play despite it being a smaller space. It didn't feel crowded and we didn't feel rushed. 5/5 would recommend for a fun date night or time with friends/family. read more

An awesome place to go with friends or coworkers! We went on a Saturday night and had a great experience. They don't serve food, but there are plenty of restaurants nearby. The drinks were well priced and strong. All the mini golf holes were really fun to play, and the course had a unique and creative spin on the traditional mini golf concept. We will definitely be going back great service as well. read more

Popped in here randomly on a night out and did not regret. Very close to many other bars but very unique. Mini golf is super cute, not very big but good for about 30-45min. Very cutely decorated, a lot of seating, and they have other games like Nintendo N64 and Jenga. Staff were very nice and service at the bar was quick and efficient. A lot of good drink choices and many different beers. Definitely would come again. read more

This is such a fun place with mini golf and drinks and beer and really good chewy New York style pizza and you get great deals like for five dollars you can get a soda and a slice of pizza. Fun ambience. Bring a group! I'm from nyc and the pizza is very good and chewy and thin and the right cheese. read more

Adults and kids had a great time here. The bar had a wonderful selection of adult beverages with golf themed titles, and offerings for the kids too. We did not order food. It was a lot of fun, celebrating a birthday. We also used the retro photo booth! read more

Fun place for kids in the winter! This place has cocktails and beers, and an option for "unlimited" mini golf. Definitely a fun place to check out with or without your family. They did a promo on NYE for BOGO golf games. read more

We recently came here for a private event for a kid's birthday party on a weekend early afternoon! It was such a fun experience for the kiddos and adults who stayed at the party to hang out. The putt putt course was super fun for the kiddos and they were able to go around a few times. By the end of the party, we witnessed a couple hole in ones! The drinks were great and they had TVs to show the sporting events happening that time. Staff was flexible (and kind to the loud group of kiddos) and nice to work with as a party attendee. This is a great place for wintertime in Chicago! read more

It is a cute casual spot for mini golf, my friends said golf was interesting but I didn't play. The drinks were cheap but too sweet

Ok when I first walked in, it smelled a little musty. So that immediately made me question everything. But I am happy to report that this place was fun! And a wonderful alternative for an indoor activity during the winter months. There were couples, friends, families, kids, yet it didn't feel saturated. Whenever we did have to wait for a turn, they had games in between, a photo booth, and plenty of drinks to choose from. They could totally have more options of games/activities in between turns. It needs more holes too! It felt so short. The employee at the entrance was friendly and she had our clubs and balls ready to go and gave a quick run down. Bartenders were nice as well. You get to do one final shot to see if you win something and I won a free drink! Coming back for sure. read more

Loved this place! At first I thought we'd breeze right through the course, but it was more challenging and bonus for $5 more we played unlimited! They also had bingo and service was excellent! read more

Had a work party here and it was a huge hit. The team was easy to work with and schedule everything. The packages were extremely reasonable and there were a lot of options to choose from to fit our party. The drinks were great and it was real easy to cater food from a place near by. Would definitely recommend. read more

Just celebrated my birthday here over the weekend and it was pretty fun! The way you make reservations is in groups of 4. They are very accommodating to help keep your big group together (mine had 16 people). And it was no problem adding an extra 2 people to my reservation. The vibes inside are fun! Lots of seating inside surrounding the course. My group of 16 were able to sit comfortably in one corner. They also have hook & ring and a photo booth too. The course itself is 9 holes - some were easy and some were medium level. You have a bonus hole at the end to win a free round or free drink. read more

Big Mini is fun! No food: bring your own inside (it's allowed) or eat somewhere nearby before or after. Drinks: lots of non-alcoholic choices, including a good mocktail menu and at least a couple of NA beers. I like the spicy Parloma (Paloma mocktail). Yes, their drinks have enough golf puns to keep you entertained for a while. Service: really great, they rock consistently! They care. Ambiance: the 9-hole golf course is fun and challenging. I'm obsessed with the 7th hole (Big Shoulders, along with the Chicago theme on the wall behind it. Yay, Carl Sandburg!) It's spacious inside, with a chill vibe, and lots of photo backdrops for you and your group. Random note: try the free pub trivia on Monday nights! read more

Super fun, lots of games besides mini golf to fill your time! Super cozy vibes too, I would highly recommend for a fun weekday activity.

Solid.I was looking forward to trying this place out for a while and explained to friends it was a bar with a putt putt course rather than a putt putt course with a bar. Being there on a Saturday I was surprised by how many children (ages 2-5) were there. It definitely changed the vibe and made it more of a putt putt course that has a bar. The course is better than I expected, both fun and challenging. The drink pricing would be more understandable if it were adults only, but they were made well. I would definitely suggest this place to someone if they were going after 8pm (when it's adults only) read more

What a cool place! Had reservations for a Saturday night. They were more or less on time and the drinks hit the spot and are reasonably priced. They also have some draft cocktails, which is pretty cool too. Good selection of beer as well. Overall a very fun experience. They have some fun looking decor as well with LED displays if you wanna get your Instagram pics in. The staff was super friendly as well. Can't complain about anything! 100% will go again! read more

We had so much fun at Big Mini! My husband and I went for an early date around 12pm on a Saturday. When we arrived it was near empty which we didn't mind at all. We did the mini golf and the holes were all unique and very fun. It did not take us very long to get through it, but I think that's mainly because we didn't have to wait at all. We got a few different drinks at the bar and they truly have a surprisingly diverse cocktail menu. From cocktails and beer on draft, to specialty mixed drinks, and a full bar in general, there is something for everyone. Afterwards we played some retro video games, followed by some xl jenga and connect four. While they don't have food it looks like people were getting things delivered. We definitely would come back, even if we didn't want to mini golf and just wanted a fun space to hang out at! read more

Make sure you book in advance on weekends because earlier tee times get full quickly. There are only 9 holes, so try and drag it out a bit or you will be done fast. There are small games like tic tac toe and connect four to do before or after you golf. There is no dim lighting so everyone can see you while you're playing. The drinks were amazing and you are allowed to carry them around as you golf (there are places to set them down at every hole). Good place to go for just drinks if you don't feel like playing. read more

Went to Big Mini Putt for my first time today and it was a great time! I ordered an alcoholic slushie to drink and it was really good. In addition to tasty drinks, the golf was also enjoyable and the holes were well thought out which made for a really fun game.

Such a great little experience. Went with some Chicas to celebrate a birthday. Lots of laughter and an awesome time. The set up is pretty cool. There were a couple shots that seem impossible and took us FOREVER but when you're with the right people, it's just a fantastic time. There are some cute photo ops which we took complete advantage of. They also have a bar within that a couple of my Chicas took advantage of. Reservations do need to be made and you have to find parking. read more

So much fun! We walked in and had to wait but grabbed a drink in the meantime. If it's busy you might have to wait for people to finish the hole in front of you or feel rushed. Go at your own pace! Don't rush for others! We did that for the first few holes and realized we were almost finished. The course was challenging and fun! They played great music and had areas to place your stuff around but I'd recommend not bringing a ton of stuff with you. They have a Photo Booth that you can get 2 photo strips (one color / one BW) for $6 and you can pay with card/phone/cash read more

This was such a fun time!!!!! We arrived for our 10:30pm reservation on a Thursday and the place was almost empty. I was a bit shocked since the weather was great and the windows open up, so some tables feel like they're outside. We checked in and got our clubs and golf ball, we also all got a drink at the bar. I went with the tipsy spritz and it was tasty & refreshing! Since it was empty, we had the entire course to ourselves and could go at our own pace. This was my first time ever here and mini golfing but I had a blast. The decor is super cool and also captures Chicago. The last obstacle can get you some freebies if you make it, but we lost lol. They have a photo booth which is something I love when places have them! Will definitely return. read more

This was a super fun place! There aren't too many indoor mini golfing places in Chicago, so Big Mini Putt Club was one of the very few options near me. This particular place is located in Wicker Park and is fairly spacious on the inside. There's only 9 holes in 1 game so you could easily do more than 1 round, but my boyfriend and I just opted in for 1. Check-in was super easy; we booked a reservation and time slot in advance and when we arrived we were given a number to wait for a little bit. In the meantime, we got a drink at the bar. Loveeee the whole mini golf & drinking concept! It wasn't long before we got called over and handed our golf clubs and golf ball (you get to pick your own that's a different color so you know which one's yours on the course). I will say, it definitely gets pretty crowded during peak hours on the weekend, so expect to feel like there's nowhere to go sometimes on the course. The course itself is fun and slightly challenging, but probably easy if you golf regularly. This place is kind of better for groups instead of just 2 people. I honestly only saw groups of people there; my boyfriend and I agreed while it was a really fun time, we think this type of shindig is better with a group of friends! On a different note, the service here was phenomenal. The host who checked us in was super chill and helpful, and the bartender was personable and had a heavy pour ;) I will totally be back for more mini golf fun! read more

We love this place. Whether you wanna commit to a date involving mini golfing 18 holes or a quick stop in for a drink they got you covered. Whether or not you're a golf enthusiast you will have a good time. I would say overall value is there. The vibe is very upbeat. The drinks are great. The people watching is top tier. Goooooooooo. read more

Props to the robust menu here... drink wise, wasn't trying for food, if that's even a thing. Came out for a date, paid for unlimited in case 9 holes wasn't enough. There's plenty of time for more, but your date probably isn't going all that great if you've gotta go around again, unless you're a sore loser ... All that said, at the end when we were leaving, the cashier/starter came by with free golf tokens because we didn't go a second time. Totally appreciated, not necessary. Solid drinks (even on the N/A front), solid vibes, the mini golf is fun too! read more

Fun quite simple place for something to do in the Wicker area. Their cocktails are inventive and unique and their mini golf holes are nothing insane, but not boring either. They seem strict in their sign up emails but in person they are nice and inviting. Had a fun time with friends and won a free game:) Only warning is to watch out for them trying to get you to tip on both the drinks and the golf at the end of the night. read more

This is a really cool spot and it's perfect for a day date! They have a large beer and cocktail menu that is very reasonably priced for the neighborhood. They also do a food partnership with Big & Littles next door- they will bring your food right to your table! I was easily able to grab a seat at that bar on an early Sunday afternoon. Service was friendly and quick. There was a bit of a wait for mini golf, but it was no more than 10 minutes. Mini golf was nine holes for $10. There is also a bonus at the end where you can try and win free drinks or golf. read more

Such a fun putt putt spot in Wicker Park! I've been here a couple times with friends and everyone always has a good time. I've had reservations both times and haven't had to wait long after walking in, just enough time to grab a drink and get settled. It's about $12 a person for 9 holes, which is a great deal! And they have a variety of drinks to enjoy while playing. You can only play in groups of 4, but you can book multiple groups back to back, which is what we've done when having a larger group and it works just fine. The course is fun and definitely has some challenging holes. It's taken us about 45 minutes to play a full game, but you can go at your own pace. But if you go too fast, you might end up waiting for the people ahead of you to finish the hole before you can start. Overall, a really fun activity with friends! Highly recommend if you're looking for something to do, especially in the winter weather! read more

My sister and I went on a Sunday evening and we were the only people playing putt putt for the majority of the time. It was a fun course! Reasonably priced compared to all of those other places popping up nowadays. They had an "after dark" special which I think was $8 or $10 per person? Very cheap IMO. They had be food, but we didn't eat. We got some drinks and the bartender made a really great margarita mocktail. I would come back next time I'm in Chicago! read more

Fun concept: nine-hole indoor miniature golf with a bar. Staff is friendly. Golf course is surprisingly difficult. Having an indoor activity is great when it's cold or rainy. My foursome enjoyed the visit. They have several very interesting original cocktails. We didn't try them, but I suggest you take a look. Definitely not a place for kids, although I believe they are allowed during daytime hours. read more

While trying to think of a place I could celebrate my birthday that would be appropriate for my baby and also my friends with their babies, I remembered Big Mini Putt Club. My wife set up a little party on a Sunday afternoon, where we figured it wouldn't be too busy, and it was great since we could bring our own food. They have party packages available that come with unlimited drinks for a set amount of time, or a few drink tokens, but since it was a Sunday and we're all in our upper 30s we decided to just reserve times like a normal visitor and just claim a few tables when we arrived. This pretty much worked out perfectly. My wife brought chips, had a bunch of White Castle delivered, and brought in a cake for me. A few of my friends have slightly older kids, and it was great having an activity for them to do. The mini golf course only takes a half hour or so to play. It's not overly difficult, but there are a couple tricky holes. They have some cocktails on tap that rotate with the season, so it was fun to try them and compare them with what my friends ordered. The only real downside is whatever employee was in charge of the mini golf that day. Didn't catch her name, but she sure acted like being at Big Mini Putt Club was the last place on earth she wanted to be at, and took it out on my friends and family. Look, it's not our fault that the directions on how to sign up to play aren't printed on a sign or anything like that. Maybe rather than be rude to us you take some initiative at your job and buy some posters to write up some instructions, then we wouldn't have to interact with you so much. I'm always a fan of places that are drinking+activities, and bring your own food is fun too if you plan ahead. I'd recommend BMPC, just hope you don't run into an employee on a bad day. read more

My friends and I happened to be in the area and as soon as we saw it was a mini putt place, we wanted to go! We looked around the area to kill time and arrived without a reservation as soon as it opened. No other players were there (Thursday at 4 pm) and it was so relaxing having the place to ourselves. We were also pleasantly surprised about the price as we arrived during happy hour and it was $8 a person! What a great deal! :) The staff were very kind and one of my friends got a boozy slushie since they were 50% off. After the last hole, you have a chance to win a free drink, free next game, or both if you get the ball in their respective holes! I ended up winning a free game and definitely want to come back again. read more
