Amazing dinosaur exhibit! (even is you are not interested in dinosaurs) - The Field museum is really impressive. In particular the dinosaur section is unbelievable. We had heard of "Sue" the T-rex that is there, but there is so much more. Our group didn't have anyone that I would consider really even remotely into dinosaurs and we were all blown away. It is a super impressive collection of fossils and the exhibit is huge!

Wonderful museum, large exhibits and the home of Sue! - What an amazing museum. And it's HUGE! There is a lot of information. A place we could visit again and again and learn something new each time. We used our CityPass for entrance. It was great.

Exceptional Service from Volunteer Emily! - I visited the Field Museum on Monday, May 12th, 2025, before catching a 7:20 PM flight from Chicago O’Hare Airport. Anticipating heavy traffic, I planned to leave the museum around 4:30 PM. While preparing to go, I had a few questions and approached Volunteer Emily for help. She kindly answered all three of my questions. First, I asked how far the shared ride pickup area was from the main lobby—she told me it was only about two minutes away, which was very helpful. Next, I asked where the nearest restroom was, and she gave clear directions. Lastly, I asked if she could take a photo of me with the museum’s magnificent Maximo the Titanosaur skeleton. She kindly agreed and took a great photo. Emily was friendly, professional, and very helpful during a stressful travel day. I really appreciate her assistance and want to thank her for going above and beyond!

Fun and Interactive - Exciting exhibits, interactive and informative! Visited with my 17 year old daughter. She was curious and excited to explore all the exhibits. Will definitely be back. We could not see everything in one day.

Very good museum in Chicago - Museum is a little old. Don't book an overpriced 3D movie! 23 min for $11 on a much too small screen - unless you have the Chicago City Pass, there's that. I also find the tickets cheeky, for foreigners the most expensive! 30$. Now for the positive... Bring a lot of time, you can look at a lot here. Impressive the dinosaurs, the Egyptians in the basement and much more as well as the temporary exhibitions, these of course cost extra 🤨

Money Grab - I was rather disappointed in the process of buying tickets online. Turns out I would have saved $5 a person by buying when I got there and it certainly didn’t save me any time so I consider this just a money grab.

An Old Museum - The museum had some interesting exhibits, but overall appeared run down. All of the glass needed cleaning, as it was difficult to read and see into the exhibits. Really kind of depressing to see the neglect.

Don’t go there unless you... - Don’t go there unless you have a passion for ancient artifacts or different cultures or you have young children cause you’re gonna be bored and get field trip vibes. I’d rather go to a zoo instead of seeing lifeless taxidermy animals behind glass cases. Next time we’ll just go to the Science and Industry Museum cause that’s more our speed

interesting exhibits, bad food service - We went there in Mother's Day 2025. The exhibits are interesting, even though make things and entire sections of exhibits were not shown due to fears of cultural theft. We were getting tired around 2:30 pm, so we went down to the cafeteria. The coffee was bad and the cream of asparagus soup okay, but the grain bowl I got wasn't worthy of being called food, other than being made of otherwise edible material. The person who made it was rude and surly, and what she gave me was all but inedible. Horrible, horrible stuff. My partner said it was typical institutional food service, but I disagree. It was THE WORST THING I HAD EVER BEEN GIVEN AS FOOD. I was tempted to bring it back and complain because it was NOT CHEAP, but, unfortunately, I didn't feel like making a fuss...
