Lakeshore Sport & Fitness

I absolutely love Lakeshore! I’m so glad I found this spot. PLEASE ignore the low ratings from some people. Folks don’t l understand what it takes to run an enormous club like this while also keeping the prices competitive. I’m sorry … but NOT sorry. With such amazing deals (ie monthly membership price + all that’s included) you are NOT going to find anything better. Go to Midtown and then complain about how much you’re paying there (at least $200 more) and how crowded it is or any other complain. I’ve been there, experienced it. Over it. Let me explain more … 🎾🏓 TENNIS and racquet sports are at the forefront of this spot. They have amazing courts, great/talented coaches, and tons of opportunities to play. Classes, drop-ins, private lessons, mixers, teams… seriously everything! Huge shout out to Coaches Brian, Pedro, and Kristina! — 🏋🏽‍♂️🤸🏾‍♀️ GYM facilities are great. There are multiple floors of equipment and tons of hidden rooms with MORE equipment. Oftentimes, they’re empty! Any gym in Chicago is going to be crowded during peak times (7-9a and 5-7p). They also offer amazing classes, a wide array of them, that are INCLUDED! — 🚿🧹🧼 This is one of the CLEANEST gyms I’ve ever been to. The locker room staff is amazing and every time I’m there, they’re constantly cleaning. Also, the locker room itself has a hot tub, sauna, and steam room. All within the privacy of the locker room. The adult locker rooms also never have kids in them which is a plus. There’s a separate one on the 4th floor for families. — 🍽️🍷 HARVEST is the rooftop restaurant and I’ve had a couple of meals there. They put on some excellent themed dinners, like the 4th of July BBQ which is very affordable! They also have a great menu and carry some good wines and beers. Their cafe on the 2nd floor also has yummy snacks and smoothies and protein shakes that are easy on the go. Happy to be part of the LSF community. Great vibes and has helped keep me active — I go here and enjoy it so much that I’ve successfully lost 15 pounds! Back to my normal self.

This is a glorified daycare facility at best. Kids running all over the weight and locker rooms and a constant smell of fried food all over the facility. Staff does nothing to monitor kids and enforce rules. The ceiling also leaks in multiple spots, almost every time I’ve been there. Overall, I would not recommend this gym to anyone.

I just finished my two week trial membership and here's what I like about my individual plus kids membership: *FREE 2 hour childcare *Variety of classes - Pilates Mat with Zineb and Fuerzo Kickboxing with Marcelo have been my favorites! *Special programming! Kids are in a free weekly dance class and they had a reptile show where we could touch the animals. Negatives: *Parking is a challenge despite them having two parking lots. I had to park on Fullerton this morning around 9AM. *Family pool access is limited on weekends as 3/4 of pool is used for lessons in the morning. Definitely worth the investment for the childcare alone!

I came here for the rooftop restaurant Harvest. I had low expectations for the food. Everything we had was really good. The truffle fries were crispy, pancakes were good, the salmon bowl and burrata salad were perfect for a hot day. The salmon was perfectly cooked. The view on the rooftop is lovely and the service was great. Definitely don't miss out on the rooftop restaurant/bar.

Search through the ONE STAR reviews first for an accurate description of what goes on in these facilities before making any decisions. To confirm the disappointing portion of my subscription was the fact they are extremely rude and unwilling to make small exceptions and/or accommodations for situations people are going through outside of the facility to the point where it feels very much obvious that they do not wish to help nor lose money in any way shape or form. It is no surprise they struggle to even keep barely a 4 star review. Midtown athletic club may be more expensive but their attentiveness to their members and applied customer service is why you pay more. Not just for an even better facility.
