Bank on MDW Saturday?

[jtl3567]

I know the first thing that will come up is "go Sunday" or "... Marquee.... XS" but really hoping to get some info for somebody who has been either recently or on MDW in years past. We have a large group of guys (10) for bachelor party going in town that weekend and while some want to do it huge, others dont as much.

While it sucks, we roll as a group so there is no saying "screw yall, have fun at X, I'm going to Y". I pretty much have an idea for pricing just about anywhere and got offered a pretty ridiculous offer at Bank on the Saturday of Memorial Weekend:

- 4 bottles for the price of 3
- main floor table
- bottles start at $475/ Goose is $545

This is without question the lowest price/minimum combo I've seen so far around the city for a Tier 1/Tier2 club.

What would you recommend? For the price it is hard to beat but what is the crowd like? I am all about finding a good "deal" every now and then but I also want to have a mix of lots of alcohol with great looking women...


I'm torn!

i <3 the bank. I think a B3G1 is a good deal for a group of guys. I'd take it. Is your table against the wall under the DJ booth, or the dance floor tables with a 2nd tier above it?

Go for it, it's a great deal and its MDW so there will be plenty of great looking women everywhere and not just at the hottest clubs of the moment. You can always hit up XS or Marquee on other days.

Especially since it's a bachelor party you have to keep the group together and if Bank fits into everyone's budget, it's a no brainer.

Alternatively you could do it really big and just have the best man take care of the difference .

We went to The Bank last Friday and had a great time. It's a smaller venue, but you'll get great service and the club has a great vibe. Ask for a table on the mezzanine level overlooking the dance floor.

Their DJ's play mostly hip hop and top 40.

Robert Gamch is the lead host and took great care of us. Let me know if you need his contact info.

I'd take it! I love the Bank, always a good time. Excellent waitresses, runners and security. And the music is great.

I always have a great time at The Bank. Main floor opposite the DJ booth is a perfect spot. You'll have a blast, smaller venue, great vibe. As a plus, their hostesses are always fun and love to party (hey if they are good enough for Tiger...).

I was told on the dance floor (2nd tier round above)

I love that area, personally, then you don't have dance floor people spilling into your area, you are more protected but still really close.

Its a great venue. You'll have a blast..

4 bottles for the price of 3 on MDW! Sounds like i need to negotiate a better rate for the Sunday after! Which host did you use?

[jtl3567]

I suppose it pays to have friends in Vegas - I initially thought 1L bottles but we are snagging four 1.75L bottles of Goose for the price of 3. I was really leaning towards Tryst or XS Saturday night after getting pricing back but I honestly can't see myself getting anywhere close to the combined alcohol + experience for that.

Any recommendations on table spot? We can sit wherever. I've sat directly on dance floor before and enjoyed myself.

Note: we are here for a bachelor party so rambunctious doesn't bother us in the least as long as we have space to stand, dance, invite girls in, etc.

I know the 2nd tier gives more room but is it as 'wild'?

[daisy24]

the dance floor is fairly small, and since the DJ spins great mixes, everyone's on the dance floor. The tables are roped off and you get your own security guard, but you can get a lot of people right around your table. It just depends what you prefer.
