Overlooking the Ogden Slip, Winter's Jazz Club is walking distance from countless hotels and restaurants as well as a shopping hub, Michigan Ave. The club seats 100 in the performance space and 25 in the bar/lounge and you can expect straight-ahead jazz most days, but you can be surprised with a bout of live Gypsy-jazz, swing, a Bourbon Street quartet and some other riffs on the genre. This is a "listening room" so save the chatter for after the show.
Sets run 75 minutes at 7:30 and 9:30 pm Tuesday-Saturday and 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. Sunday. There's a one-drink minimum of $10/person/set. Cover charge varies but sit in the bar and enjoy half-off of the standard listening room cover charge. Enjoy 25-percent off drinks during Happy Hour Tues.-Sat. 5:30-7 p.m. and Sun, 4-5 p.m.

- Jazz & Blues Clubs: "Seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis, so arrive a half-hour prior to showtime for the best spots."
- Best for Jazz & Blues Clubs Because: Winter's Jazz Club has earned a sturdy rep as a genuine listening room and it's close to hotels, restaurants and Navy Pier.
