About Chico's House of Jazz
Chico's House of Jazz & Blues is an intimate, restaurant-style club in Asbury Park, offering live jazz, blues, pro jam sessions, and open mic nights. With a capacity of about 125 guests per show, the venue focuses on close-up viewing and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. While the historic Lake Avenue site has appeared as closed in some sources, the current, active location on Cookman Avenue continues to host standout performances by renowned and rising artists.
Whether you're in town for a solo set or a weekend of music, Chico's provides a straightforward, friendly ticketing experience. We’ve got you covered with practical information on seating, parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining to ensure a smooth night out in downtown Asbury Park.
Seating is configured per show, so there isn’t a published chart. Expect an intimate, near-stage experience where performers are close and the sound is tailored for a small room vibe. For those driving, plan ahead for downtown parking—the Bangs Avenue Garage and metered spots on Cookman Avenue are common options. If you’re using transit, Asbury Park Station on NJ Transit's North Jersey Coast Line is within walking distance, and bus connections are available as well. For a complete night out, consider nearby hotels like The Asbury Hotel and The Empress Hotel, which frequently host guests visiting the music scene on Cookman Avenue. Secure your seats with us and enjoy a straightforward, friendly ticketing process.
