THANK YOU FOR AN INCREDIBLE RIDE

After 16 unforgettable years, we made the difficult decision to close Chicago q.

This wasn’t an easy choice. Chicago q has been more than a restaurant—it’s been a place for great barbecue, great whiskey, and even greater memories. From first visits to final toasts, we’re deeply grateful for every guest who chose to spend time with us.

For our staff, this has been a home, where being creative and fun was rewarded. They showed up everyday no matter what was happening in the world and showed our guests the best we had to offer. We can never thank them enough for all the hard work they put into making Chicago q a home to so many.

Thank you for the support, loyalty, and love you’ve shown us over the years. You’re the reason this journey meant so much.

Please come visit over our last two weeks, we know goodbyes are always tough, but they’re easier together.

Please keep an eye out for what we do next.
This may be the end of one chapter, but it’s not the end of the story.

With gratitude,
The Chicago q Team
