Description
Five Iron Golf is a modern, indoor golf simulator and sports bar with multiple locations in Chicago, including The Loop, River North, Lincoln Park, and the Metropolitan in Willis Tower. Each venue features state-of-the-art simulator bays—usually around 11 to 12 per site—equipped with TrackMan technology, high-speed cameras, and top-tier clubs available for complimentary use. These venues cater to all skill levels, offering virtual rounds on famous courses, fun games like Bullseye and Streets of Neon, swing analysis, private lessons, and custom club fittings. Beyond golf, many locations also feature amenities like full-service bars, lounges, darts, shuffleboard, and casual dining, creating a fun and social environment for groups or solo visitors.
Operating hours typically range from early morning to late night. For example, the Loop location is open from 6 AM to 11 PM Monday through Thursday, stays open until 1 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, and closes at 11 PM on Sundays. Simulator rental rates are generally around $50 per hour during off-peak times (weekday mornings and late evenings) and about $65 per hour during peak periods (weeknight evenings and weekends). These prices cover up to six guests per bay, with small additional fees for extra participants. Golf instruction, swing evaluations, and Callaway club fittings are available for an additional cost, usually starting around $99.
Reservations are recommended, especially during peak hours, although walk-ins are welcome when bays are available. A cancellation fee applies if you cancel within 12 hours, and full charges are incurred for no-shows. Memberships are available at certain locations for around $279 per month, offering daily free simulator time during select hours, discounts on food, instruction, and gear, plus access to events and preferred booking times. Dress is typically athletic or smart casual, and some venues offer added perks like showers and secure bag storage. For anyone visiting Chicago and looking for a unique indoor activity with a fun, high-tech twist, Five Iron Golf is a top-tier option.
