Super charming piano bar. The bartender, Megan is amazing and known to sing operatic solos from time to time. They play everything thing from Elton John to Billy Joel to Neil Diamond to show tunes. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a diamond in the rough. It’s just busy enough, not too busy.

Nitz and Howe are always great. Fun songs and even the waitstaff chimes in. A great place to take people who are celebrating a special occasion. You will end up with a feather boa around your neck and become part of the act.

For fans of the Great American Songbook, this place cannot be beat. On Monday nights, George Howe leads a stellar, high energy open mic with a specialty on classic Broadway. On Wednesdays, Beckie Menzie jazzes the place up with accompaniments that are always complex and beautiful. The wait staff is friendly, remembers your drink order from week to week, and are all stellar performers. Davenports also has excellent drink specials. The crowd is supportive and help make Davenports Chicagos premier piano bar.

Great little piano bar with karaoke on Friday nights. Prices are a bit high, but its to be expected in the neighborhood. The old fashioned and Manhattan cocktails are fantastic.

We were in from out of town and thoroughly enjoyed the cabaret and musical ensembles of George and Darryl. The staff was engaging and very friendly, and their participation made it a more memorable experience. Thank you, Davenports!

Came here for a friends cabaret and it was really great. Drinks are reasonable for the area, and the atmosphere is nice. Only downside is parking; its a nightmare around here on the weekends...
