They slept at the most opulent hotel in town! My kids have a terrific time whenever we come here for vacation. There was even a fitness facility, which you and your spouse would enjoy. Strongly recommended! gym

Just moved to the location and found my everyday gym after testing out a couple other gyms in the area. Wicker Park Fitness stays on top of keeping the facility clean and the front desk is very informative. Also they have a great deal on personal training sessions. 3 one-hour sessions for only $99 and a handful of the best certified trainers in the city of Chicago!

Great gym!Extremely clean, the staff is friendly, and the pricing is fair and has no hidden fees etc. like a lot of other gyms. Love that it is a neighborhood gym and the set up is pretty cool. Staff is constantly cleaning even when the gym is busy, which is awesome! Would recommend.

I have been a member at this Gem of a Gym for over 10years. I give it a full recommendation to anyone who views a gym as place you go to workout. If you view a gym as place that has a barista, steam room, and carpeted locker rooms - WPF ain’t your place!WPF offer all the essentials for cardio and weight training and for low membership fees. Staff and management have been super friendly since day one - and always show care for their members, and the gym’s facilities. Only crowded during the 5:30-6:30, but rarely have to wait for any station I want to use. WPF is offers a super in-and-out experience for those aiming to make the workout the top priority of a trip to the gym : )

Best gym in Wicker Park.Small, affordable, low membership count so theres always space and never a line.Havent had this place close once in the 4 years Ive been a member (except when city all shut down, but that doesnt count).Cleaned daily, machines kept up to date, trainers helpful and dont try to sell to you if youre not interested.

I have never felt more welcome at any other gym in my life! The staff was absolutely was wonderful and inviting. Super clean, and the staff was constantly sanitizing the equipment. Its always open with a super kind atmosphere. Also, Colin the owner is super kind, and really listened to me regarding my disability. 5/5 I wish I could live here.

Good hours available for working out. Also I lost my credit card and forgot to update my info for a month so they called me to update this info and didnt make me pay the last month saying, Everyone is going through hard times right not. Now that is CLASS. 10/10

Excellent gym at a great price. Clean, no nonsense, and the management is locally owned and takes cares of its members.Other gyms were charging members in Wicker Park during COVID-19, but this gym didnt AND they added time onto members accounts for time closed!$1.50 a day, cant beat this spot.

Cheap, everything you need. Great neighborhood gym. Run by locals, no nonsense.Im a member at a gym on the northside (southport fitness) and my membership works here as well. This spot is awesome, intimate, clean, and full of rock solid members.Get a good gym, stop wasting time at big chains.This gym is clean, they take care of members, and Colin and the management really made COVID a breeze for me.

I love Wicker Park Fitness gym. It is a great neighborhood gym. The vibe in the gym is friendly and not pretentious. Anyone can feel comfortable working out there. They have absolutely everything that you need in a gym plus some. You rarely have to wait to use any equipment which is so nice. love their fitness classes and instructors. I highly recommend this gym.

Great gym for a great price in a great neighborhood. On the smaller side but it has every piece of equipment you could want. Plenty of room to grab a mat and do your own thing if youre not interested in using the machines. Staff are friendly, gym is clean. Numerous classes offered.

Review №23

Love this gym! I had two different gym memberships prior to COVID (one near work and one near home). After COVID hit, trying to pause my membership with the big chain gym near where I worked was a nightmare, while WPF has been communicative, transparent, and helpful. This is the only membership I’ve kept due to the stellar way they’ve handled COVID. It may be a small neighborhood gym but it’s well-maintained, super clean, the staff is friendly, and I can get a great workout in without compromising my health. Personal training sessions with Kenzie have also been fantastic – he’s understanding of my limitations put still pushes me to better myself. I definitely recommend them if you’re looking for a new gym.

Ive been going to Wicker Park Fitness for a little over a year now. The gym has a great vibe, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this gym to anyone who lives in the area. Not a huge facility but has everything you need for a neighborhood gym at a very affordable price!

I’ve been coming to this gym for a few years now and I love it. It has a great neighborhood vibe with friendly staff and members. The gym is definitely on the smaller side, but for the price and equipment selection it doesn’t get any better.

Review №32

Amazing local gym. The staff and trainers are very friendly. For being small they have an impressive selection of equipment and fair number of classes to select from. I gave it 4 stars because of basic upkeep. I went here for 4 years and after the ownership change there was a noticeable decline in cleanliness, equipment care and timeliness of equipment repair.

Review №34

Great neighborhood gym with excellent customer service. I had to cancel my membership due to an unexpected move out of the neighborhood and there was no hassle. Most gyms require you to jump through a million hoops to close out which is the most annoying experience ever. The WPF team was super accommodating and used my email alone as confirmation of cancellation. I highly recommend this gym to anybody in the neighborhood.

The gym is very clean and organized. Not too crowded. Well kept machines and equipment. As if that isn’t enough for me and most gym goers, the yoga classes really are the icing on the cake.

Joined this gym a few weeks ago, and its been great so far. Sign up process is straight forward, pricing is simple without any weird or confusing loopholes, cancel anytime.Gym is open long hours with staff, has all the machines you need spaced out appropriately, and is always clean. Most times, outside of the after work rush, its not very busy, dont have to worry about waiting on a machine or being too crowded.Staff is friendly and helpful. Complementary towel service.

Great facility they have numerous sport and fitness programs tailored to both adult and youth. Very nice staff. Big and clean space they have a full gym facility on the 2nd floor. The main floor consisted of all of the sports fields, check in desk, a coffee shop and restrooms. They offer various plans and camps they also host parties.

Absolutely filthy. So dirty I couldn’t even shower there. Had the misfortune of working out here on a guest pass and it was terrible - limited weights and no classes. WPAC is around the corner and wonderful - go there.A dollar a day gym isn’t an excuse to be filthy. Attached photos.Note the owners snarky response below. Being polite is free.

I have been a $30/month Yoga Unlimited member of Wicker Park Fitness for approximately 7 months. The instructors for yoga are incredible. Each teacher is a little different, but they all care about your form and technique and will assist you if you have any difficulties or limitations. Every teacher knows me by name and plans the lesson out beforehand, making the class go smoothly so you can slip into breath to movement. They also have relaxing or upbeat playlists depending on the type of class. Its great! I definitely recommend the $30/month unlimited yoga class and the rest of the gym looks great as well. The gym go-ers and the staff are so friendly and helpful! The locker rooms are clean.

The gym is clean, has very reasonable hours, and the staff is incredibly nice. Its also bigger than I first expected when I saw it from the outside, and is by far the most affordable gym in the area.The yoga instructor in particular is superb! Ive taken yoga at a few gyms, but Christine provides the perfect balance between instruction and flow.

Really friendly staff, no nonsense gym with the stuff you need to get a great workout. Also, the membership cost is the best youll find around.Try to avoid going at 5-6PM on weekdays, as it can get pretty busy. Going around 8-9PM is perfect, or in the morning.

A great gym at a great value. They have all of the equipment you need in about the right amounts (there could always be more squat racks I suppose), its very clean, and the staff are all fantastic and friendly. I also like that you but months at a time instead of a monthly fee: if you gut a6 month membership and dont use it, thats it! You arent paying for it for another 2 years. I think its a good business practice, providing value for customers.

Joined here a month ago and Ive been really pleased. Membership is tiered and affordable and the staff are kind. One time an instructor didnt show up for class but thats the only negative experience Ive had. And they were super apologetic about it (someone was pregnant and the sub cancelled). Definitely recommend joining here.

Checked out Wicker Park Fitness last night for the first time. I thought it would be much smaller inside but its actually pretty big. I lifted and actually jumped into the Yoga class at 7:30. By no means is it a fitness club but for the price I thought it was great!

Review №52

Pros: Friendly staff, super clean place for a very affordable price. Clean towels, clean locker rooms, state of the art equipment.Cons: SO SMALL!!! Unless youre okay with doing abs in small corners, tripping over other members, this isnt the right place for you. Their weekend hours arent the greatest either, I wish they could stay open late every day! Sometimes I cant get a full workout because there arent enough machines available.

Ive been working out at Wicker Park Fitness for almost three years now and have never been unhappy. The prices are very reasonable for Chicago and staff is very polite. While they do not have the large scale facility that some gyms have in the area, they do have everything you could possibly need to get a good workout in.

Being there for 2 years I saw the gym go through many changes including a change in ownership. Wicker Park Fitness isnt a fancy pants top of the line facility but as Ive said many times before, it was my home away from home. It doesnt have fancy amenities such as towel warmers and saunas but what it lacks in flash, it makes up for in heart. Many members have become good friends and spend time with each other outside of the gym. Ive made life long friendships there including meeting the love of my life. I can honestly say that the heart of Wicker Park Fitness lies within its members. People care for one another there and you will not find that spending over 80 bucks a month at some big name chain. The personal trainers are top of the line, be it Martin, Samantha, Jaime, Sheldon or Cindy, you will always have them giving 100% effort in tailoring the right workout to fit your needs. I started working out there weighing in at 150 lbs and with the guidance of PT and nutritional advice, I dropped to 120 lbs and am in the best shape of my life. Classes are always a fun time whether its Barre Burn with Jaime, Yoga Fit with Christine, Bootcamp with Martin, or Booty Burn with Samantha they will kick your ass everytime. Last but certainly not least Colin the new manager is one of the coolest guys youll meet and goes above and beyond to make your experience enjoyable. If you want a gym where you can make friends, learn new things, and not break the bank, look no further than Wicker Park Fitness.

Review №65

You get what you pay for. A gym so close you can walk there in a few minutes. You can bench press there unlike Planet Fitness. Im not paying a thousand dollars a year for WPAC, nor am I interested in driving all the way to Planet Fitness.Obviously its a tight squeeze and crazy from 5-7 but common sense should dictate that.Most people rerack their weights at this gym. I moved and go to LA Fitness now and its like a scavenger hunt trying to find matching dumbbells.Almost all of the 1-star reviews come from people with the same last name, which means they come from a family of complainers or happened to all be there on this gyms one day that things werent on point.

This Gym is super clean and had all the necessary equipment for a great workout. Recently Logan Fitness shut down and apparently cut ties with the other two locations.

Im a seasonal Gym person, and Ive had a membership here on and off since they opened. They always have good incentives for re-upping.It is small, but its really all I need for a gym (though a pool would be nice) I dont feel super intimidated when Im in here. There is a long wait for the cardio equipment on certain days though.The Staff is friendly, the equipment is clean, and there are plenty of classes to choose from.

Absolutely filthy and run down. The mats looked like they were new in the year 2000. The dumbbell weights were so filthy I would never pick them up. The bathroom was absolutely disgustingly dirty. In fact we left after a short 35 minute workout we couldn’t stand the filth in the place. The air was bad no Wi-Fi no towels only one hand sanitizer dispenser absolutely gross

Was a member for two years.Pros: The gym is cheap if you pay for the whole year.Cons: The gym is so packed to the point where you have to wait 5 minutes for a machine after each exercise. Additionally, having to discuss any matter with their corporate office is a completely nightmare. Their corporate office is unprofessional and unskilled.I know it is cheap but I would do anything you can to avoid this gym.
