Doesn't look like a place where you'd hold event like a memorial, but once the doors opened, it was…read moreTHE PERFECT PLACE! The property is well kept, and the park host/liaison was very nice and informative. Parking was perfect as I had a guest list of roughly 60 plus people. Also, I will say that the walk up from the parking lot to the venue is a bit much for some. Suggestion: have a designated driver at the bottom and have them drive people back and forth from the lot to the venue. Otherwise, this place is beautiful, and I will definitely use it again.

A nice place to have a gathering. It is in a location that allows for free parking but it can be…read moretricky. Depending on how many guests you have you will be parking a tad bit farther down the street. Still if in the area you know how ridiculous parking prices are in the Chicago area. I did not have any interaction with the owners or rented the venue but did meet some of the staff who were very nice and helpful. They did a great job of checking people in and telling people the best places to park in case they run out of spaces in their parking lot. Clean facility and as an attendee this is a place I would consider renting out for an event. Not sure how the management is behind the scenes and that is a big factor but cannot honestly judge that portion.

Fairly priced, put together an event on short notice, nice looking facilities, and professional…read morestaff.

In 2021, I started making wine at home. Wild Blossom Meadery & Winery was where I could buy…read moresupplies that I needed. I had taken a winemaking class here, so I also could buy some of their kits if I didn't want to start from scratch with my own juice. Recent, I went to a Sunday brunch session that was really nice. The food was outstanding. And with the weather being nice, outdoor seating was an option that made the afternoon that more enjoyable. I had only been familiar with the wine, mead, and brewing supplies aspect of Wild Blossom. I like their "restaurant" setting. I may get back to enjoy some weekend events.

Extremely disappointed. We drove across the city to try the cauliflower pizza…read more 1. Pairing parking is very limited in the area but we located parking two block over and walked back. 2. We enter the venue. No one greets us and it is fairly empty. We ask a woman who walks through the main space, "Are you all open?" She says "yes", but never breaks stride. Another woman walks into the main space, we ask "Do we seat ourselves?" She replies, "Yes, you can sit wherever you'd like, inside or outside", before walking off. 3. We seat ourselves and wait about 10min for the server to come to our table to water. She provides an overview of the meadery and prepares to leave. We stop her and ask to place an order for the cauliflower pizza in the photo . She replied, "Oh, we don't serve that anymore. We use regular frozen pizza dough now." Wow, just wow. Why circulate false advertisement on the website? We left without ordering anything.

This is by far the WORST experience in booking a venue I've ever had! Beware and do not book here!…read more We were double booked and had to find out through Facebook that another event was taking place the same day. We called for a couple days to speak with someone with no success. Finally we had to wait almost a week to be allowed to come up and attempt to rectify the situation with the manager. When we did speak with her, she was extremely rude. It was utterly unbelievable. I have never seen anyone conduct themselves this way to PAYING CUSTOMERS! It was outrageous! We even asked if someone else could help as she stated that she was dealing with serious issues. We were told by her, "not to listen to anyone but her." The person that was supposed to cover for the manager was extremely dismissive and would not give us any time or effort on the phone. She explained that she was new and she didn't have any information other than we were double booked! She even said that we would not have time to set up for the party anymore! I thought this was outrageous. When we finally spoke in person to the manager, we told her that we were worried that because of our terrible treatment, our guests would be treated poorly and the party wouldn't go well. The manager's response was, "I'll give you the full amount back right now." We were in shock to the fact that she threw away a paid in full booking. This was the WORST experience I have ever had. Management does not care about booking the banquet room, and definitely doesn't care about new or returning customers! I'm just glad that my guests won't be treated poorly because this establishment does not care about its patrons AT ALL! I truly wanted to give this place 0 stars!!!! Beware! Beware! Beware!!!
