Long Grove

Long Grove's historic downtown, anchored by cobblestone streets and festival-calendar culture, supports a small but consistent live-music circuit rooted in bars, restaurants, and an outdoor event lawn. Broken Earth Winery promotes local musicians and books live music most weekends, pouring wines from its Paso Robles, California vineyard while acts perform indoors or on the lawn. Brothers' Field occupies 30,000 square feet of open green space in the Historic Downtown District, with vintage-style barns, a Tiki Bar, and named events that include a Blues Fest and Country Fest. Country Fest features afternoon sets, dance lessons from Fred Astaire Dance Studios Long Grove, and evening headliners. The Chatterbox of Long Grove serves pub-style food in a renovated historic barn with two dog-friendly outdoor patios. Corked Restaurant and Wine Bar pours wines from around the world alongside a seasonal menu and appears on local live-music listings. The Village Tavern is a casual bar-and-bite spot that sometimes hosts live music.
