Named one of the world’s top venues by Downbeat Magazine, Crooners Supper Club presents dinner-show concerts in three distinct venues–the all-season tented Belvedere, the elegant, tiered showroom The MainStage, and the intimate Dunsmore Jazz Room. Musical styles range from jazz, R&B and soul, to roots, rock and country.

SEATING PROTOCOL

Cocktail and dinner seating begins one hour before showtimes in the Dunsmore. Crooners’ menu features our signature cocktails and desserts, and a selection of supper club classics, salads and sandwiches that are locally sourced, amply-portioned and prepared fresh daily. Adhering to our old-school Midwest supper club values, guests are never rushed.

OUR LISTENING POLICY

Crooners is a listening environment. Because the quality of the shows is very high, and many in our audience are avid music lovers, we support both our guests and our artists by enforcing a “no talking during the show” policy. Side conversations and singing along with the music (unless when prompted) are discouraged.
