Wrigley Field Rooftops Directory

Welcome to TheCubdom.com's Wrigley Field Rooftop directory. (We are not an official site, and have never made any claims of neutrality. We have always stated clearly on this page that the author has not visited all of the rooftops. We do accept advertising, and are willing to present additional photos and text for our sponsors.)

There are 16 buildings with rooftop views, where proprietors sell tickets to see the game. A few years ago, these rooftops entered into a revenue sharing program with the Cubs, and are now considered 'official Cubs rooftop partners.'


Aerial map of Wrigley Field and the Cubs Rooftop partners

The information found on this page is mainly a result of several years of observing the rooftops from afar, plus communications directly with the rooftop owners, and some paid 'advertorials'. The aerial 'map' above allows you to see the layout of the rooftops around the park, so, scroll down the page and read about them all. (Please note that I update this page sporadically, and the best source of information about each rooftop is the individual rooftops. So, check with the individual rooftops before relying on any of the information on this page. Finally, please note I have not been up on top of all of them, so the coverage is a little uneven.)

Buy a Baseball Experience Not Just a Seat at Beyond the Ivy
Beyond the Ivy offers everyone fun, convenience and a lot of value for the dollar in a family friendly environment. Recently renovated buildings offer fun in the sun with its unique, eating-station bleacher systems. There are no assigned seats so everyone can mix and mingle with plenty of room to visit in the bleachers and in the shade. If an inviting indoor bar is more desirable, then hang out on the third floor of each building in an air conditioned elite sports bar with great dramatic views of the game through floor to ceiling picture windows and large screens of the game every where.

Away from the Crowds but In the Middle of the Action
Beyond the Ivy offers quick and convenient access from Waveland Avenue to all three of its locations with private parking and public transportation access nearby. Avoid all the crowds and confusion of the ball park without missing any or the excitement of the game. Enjoy flexible seating. Avoid the lines with bathrooms that are clean, posh, quick and convenient to use.

All Inclusive Food and Drink for One Price
Unlike the ball field, your single admission price to Beyond the Ivy provides your game experience, unlimited beverages (including select beers, select wines and soft drinks) and unlimited appetizers, entrees and deserts with a large and varied menu of popular Chicago summer fair served over the course of the game. Enjoy seasonal salads, grilled meats, snacks, cookies, brownies and more. Vegetarian items are available on request.

For Fans
The action is great and the excitement is thrilling when you experience a Cubs game from a Beyond the Ivy rooftop. It’s like an open air skybox but at affordable prices with all the food and drink amenities you’d find on a luxury cruise. Whether you have a small group or want to throw a large private affair, Beyond the Ivy staff are experts at providing a memorable experience and making everyone comfortable.

For Fund Raisers
Tired of the usual golf outing or nightclub mixer to raise funds for your worthy cause? Why not hold your fundraiser with Beyond the Ivy and provide a new, memorable experience that is appropriate and fun for people of all genders, ages and backgrounds. Beyond the Ivy has worked with dozens of alumni, charitable and political fundraising groups over the years to successfully raise significant dollars for worthy causes. With three rooftops and the ability to comfortably entertain 200 guests at one time Beyond the Ivy is a perfect partner for your organization. Tours of the facilities can be arranged with prior appointments.

For Companies
A rooftop event is a memorable way to thank and entertain your employees, partners and clients. Stand out from your competitors by offering something different and universally appealing. Beyond the Ivy hosts hundreds of corporate events each year from small intimate groups to exclusive events held on an entire rooftop. Beyond the Ivy is one of the few rooftop operators that can accommodate an event comfortably up to 200 guests on a single rooftop.

Beyond the Ivy prides itself on working with guests for special event requests from decorations to dining. If you have a need for meeting space, the third floor bar area in any location can have a podium and seating in place prior to a game for speakers, large group meetings and group toasts with prior arrangement.

Beyond the Ivy works with local parking services to coordinate reserved parking for event VIPs or better yet let them arrange a limo service to make getting to and from the event seamless.

Are you celebrating? Speak to them about upgraded food packages to provide special beverages or elite foods to your event.

If you have a larger gathering then an entire rooftop can be reserved to create a completely private event. For shared rooftop events, Beyond the Ivy discreetly screens the guest lists to make sure any competitors aren’t attending your same venue; just let them know your concerns.

Your successful business event is Beyond the Ivy’s ultimate goal. Tours of the facilities can be arranged with prior appointments.

Brixen Ivy | Where Chicago goes to watch the Cubs

Originality: Brixen Ivy has no affiliation with any other rooftop. Brixen Ivy was the original rooftop building built from the ground up to actually cater to Cub fans, and we take our role as a leader seriously. We understand that many of the rooftops have similar names and some have multiple rooftop buildings. For this reason, we ask you to be sure you have contacted Brixen Ivy at 773-472-7889 or brixenivy@aol.com to book your event. Be sure you are at Brixen Ivy, 1044 West Waveland.

Quality & Innovation: It all begins with a great idea. In 2009, Brixen Ivy Rooftop underwent a massive construction and renovation project. The new design takes into consideration the need for exceptional viewing and comfortable networking and socializing. The newly remodeled Brixen Ivy rooftop is quickly becoming known world wide for its stylish décor, inviting ambience, warm hospitality and state of the art facility.

Exclusivity: Ideal for corporate customers. Because our guests prefer exclusive entertainment areas, we have multiple private deck and bar areas to choose from or combine. We believe the key to a successful outing is the ability to customize your event. Brixen Ivy offers choices and options. If you want something you don’t see here, simply ask. We will make every effort to accommodate your group.

Community: Our philosophy At Brixen Ivy is about giving back. We strongly believe in building into our local and world communities. That’s why 25% percent of our profits go to organizations that facilitate after school programs, educational scholarships and supporting our troops and their families.

Service: At Brixen Ivy, each customer matters. Whether you are part of a large corporate group or a small family party, you are important to us. The friendly and professional staff at Brixen Ivy is here to provide you with excellent service.

Whether you’re all about watching the baseball game, a casual day out with friends, networking with colleagues, or closing the deal, Brixen Ivy is here to set the stage for you.

Lake View Baseball Club

3633 N. Sheffield Avenue

The Lake View Baseball Club, 3633 Sheffield Ave

The Lakeview Baseball Club is home to the famous Eamus Catuli sign. (Eamus Catuli is latin for Let's go Whelps... but essentially means, Go Cubs!). The other sign (in this picture as AC0063100) stands for Ano Catuli 00 63 100. Ano Catuli means, "In the year of the Cub" the first two digits are how long it's been since the Cubs won a division title. The second set of two digits are for how long it's been since the Cubs won the NL Pennant, and the final numbers (now three digits) are for how long it's been since the Cubs won the World Series.

Unlike the other rooftops, The Lakeview Baseball Club is a private club, and so guests may need to join the club to purchase rooftop tickets, but in return the ticket prices may be lower than the other rooftops.

The Lakeview Baseball club is located next door to the building with the Miller Lite billboard. I've also traded emails with owners/operators of this rooftop, and they were quite pleasant. Please check with the Lake View Baseball Club for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability.

(Image from The Cubdom photo gallery. Text is from my own observation and opinions.)

Murphy's Bleachers

3649 N. Sheffield Avenue

Murphy's Bleachers, 3649 Sheffield Ave

Murphy's rooftop is located beyond the right center field wall and has the smallest capacity of all the rooftops. This makes it an ideal location for small groups looking to book an entire rooftop for their use. I've never been up on the rooftop, but I've thrown a few back at Murphy's bar next door, and I've always had fun there.

The Murphy's rooftop building is the one with the light-up Harry Caray and is one of the more attractive buildings to look at, IMHO. Please check with Murphy's Bleachers for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability.

Wrigley View

Rooftop by the Firehouse at 1050 W. Waveland

1050 W. Waveland Ave

Wrigley View's building was built in 1999 as the Rooftop by the Firehouse. In 2009, Wrigley View opened to the public. It is located next door to the famous and historic Wrigleyville Firestation, so the view is from left field foul territory. I've never been up there to see a game, but I think it would be fun.

I can remember when the building was constructed. That summer, WGN kept showing all the construction workers taking breaks to watch the game. It always made me jealous, and the building is very beautiful, it has these turquoise blue highlights that completely pop out at the eye. I think it's the nicest looking building of all the rooftops. Another nice thing is that you could chat with the firemen next door who sit out on a bench and watch the folks playing catch on Waveland during the game. Please check with Wrigley View for information on rooftop ticket prices and availability.

Wrigley Done Right
3621 N. Sheffield Avenue, picture taken from street level

There is a rooftop at 3621 N. Sheffield, but I don't know who will be running it for 2010. I spoke to the landlord on March 19, and no tenant has been selected yet. I'll update this space when I find out who will be running the rooftop this summer.

Wait, there's more!

Be sure to visit the Waveland Avenue and Sheffield Avenue Rooftops pages to see street level photos of the rooftops, the Wrigleyville Firestation, the famous firehydrant, the Budweiser building, and more.
