The title says it all - this experience really was so much more fun than I could have expected. I know escape rooms sometimes get a rep for being a little cheesy or only for team building, but this was seriously FUN. It made us feel accomplished and was a great way to start the night! Heidi and our game master Jeff were so helpful and Jeff did a great job thoroughly explaining everything, without giving anything away. We loved the decor and the puzzles were just the right amount of challenging (we're newbs). We'll definitely be back to try the others!

Great for a group of friends, the instructors are friendly, patient, and a lot of fun. Our instructor, Cody, lead us through the basics, and then helped us to organize into teams to go axe-to-axe in several exciting competitions. Would recommend to anyone, and am going back this week myself!

I went to Chicago with 7 friends and we were all going to a Notre Dame football game. We did some research and it appeared Irish Express was offering what we needed. What we did not expect is just how great the organization and service was. First, Dillon Murphy runs a great program and the food and drink is both plentiful and delicious! If you are able, please ask for Ashley and hope she is the server on your bus! You start off with a great breakfast, open bar the whole ride to Notre Dame and a great tailgate when you get there! Do not hesitate to choose The Irish Express; it’s the best way to get to Notre Dame and back! The whole experience was tremendous. It was so good, we are going back next year with more people and Irish Express will be taking us!

I frequently get massages at home. When I arrived in Chicago, I had a severe back ache and called this spa. When I explained the problem, they were able to get me in quickly and with a therapist who had more of a clinical approach. The therapist was able to improve my situation and I had more movement immediately. The spa is clean and comfortable. They have a small relaxation room, regular/steam showers, lockers and amenities. The staff is very friendly, accommodating and professional. Afterwards, stop at the French market for food- it is right across the street!
