This place is so fun and such a vibe. Going with some gfs it was so fun! The people here are nice and the music was lit. Loved the service here and you're able to see the DJ up close.

My friends and I had hands down THE WORST experience at this night club. Security here is WAY out of line and does not respect quality patrons. THEY are the riff raff here and intentionally provoked my group, escalated the situation and immediately threatened us with violence. I've never been treated so poorly in my years of dancing in many Chicago night clubs. It was UNBELIEVABLE. This place needs to hire safe and rational security or diagnose and medicate the staff they currently have. I would NEVER recommend anyone to this reprehensible night club and will NEVER return to tunnel. What a joke this club is.

This place is RUDE at the entrance. A group of friends and I went to Tunnel to continue our fun night. Upon arriving to get our IDs checked, I was denied entry because I was wearing a CHICAGO bears shirt.
I even asked security if I could wear my shirt reversed so the CHICAGO bears logo was hidden. He denied it. I ended up taking my businesss elsewhere because of this issue. It baffles me that my entry was denied because of CHICAGO sports representation.
Not even at WRIGLEYVILLE do I get entry denied for repping the WHITE SOX. The audacity, no wonder this place has avg 2.2 stars.
If you go to their website, their dress code does NOT state you can NOT wear SPORTS attire. See picture attached.
Security must have been a bitter Packers fan.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Vicente D.Chicago, IL052Mar 9, 2024
This place is so lit! I honestly had low expectations but it exceeded the ambient of the place and their staff are so fun and friendly. Good service from start to end.

We visited Chicago and heard we should checkout out tunnel. Everyone from management to our bartender Tony was amazing. Can't wait to come back to chicago and visit this establishment again.

My daughter and her friend spot $80 each tickets from an approved, third-party vendor organizing events at tunnel for tonight's St. Patrick's Day event. They were denied entry as apparently, they oversold tickets. However, they were told that if they BRIBED the bouncer they could get in. My daughter was also offered the opportunity to give her Pu$$y to get in.

My brother and I left the club and we talked to 4 people on the way out to four different checkpoints; we will be right back! All four people said "okay"
When we came back the main bouncer, supposedly called "jay", and the girl who gives out the stamps said "we don't recognize you"!
We said we have tabs open and "we were one of the first ones here"
The officer that pats us down; said, "yeah let them in, I recognize them". All I said was "why are you going to stamp people on the wrist when you can't let them in?" To the stamp girl.
The main bouncer, got his feelings hurt from the questioning and said "we are good, I squashed it" and began to kick me out! (And proceeded to tell everyone that I was being an a hole; for which I never have cursed or treated a hospitality employee badly, because I have been one for the past 10 years)
Both were wanting to charge us 20 dollars each because they didn't recognize us. But after the other employee's did, it didn't matter. It was all about ego.
Moments later I confronted the other employees and they agreed with me and said that I have been respectable and had a calm demeanor compared to how other people would've handled it,.
Please don't go Here! They don't deserve your business.

Was there for St.Pattys, Bartender was super rude told me " I was asking her to make a complicated drink on a busy day" that's literally her job tho? Not the 1st time I've dealt with rude service here.

started coming in 2019 it was Sooo much fun!!! Used to be a 5 but a lot has changed. They used to have a dress code but now they just let anyone in. Used to get bottle service all the time but it's not worth it anymore. The couches really need to get repaired.
Still fun to go to but from what it was like in 2019 to now I need to get back there.I'm not sure it's because of post covid. Sometimes they have tacos. Ladies bring singles $$$ there is a hard working bathroom attendant she is so sweet and will always hook you up
Overall bartender and DJs very nice and professional. 5/5 stars
PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH THE SECURITY.
The Men at the door have always been very very sweet to me and my group but the boys you call security upstairs that's a whole other story MEN SECURITY 5/5
For ladies
The security is out here getting into relationships with regulars. Doing the girls dirty. Then playing victim getting them banned. BUT BOY SECURITY UPSTAIRS0/5
For men if they don't like you they will literally kick you out.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jennifer W.Mokena, IL01223Aug 19, 2022
Tunnel is located above Tree House in the River North Neighborhood of Chicago's Near North Side. If you're looking for a fantastic event space with a great atmosphere or just getting out and about, I highly recommend them checking out! Drinks, food and service were great! Loved the open ceiling!
