'The Rock House' Set to Open in Glenview This Month

A music school that doubles as a coffee bar is set to hold its grand opening in Glenview later this month.

According to a release from the Glenview Chamber of Commerce, The Rock House Coffee Bar & Roasting Company will make its official debut at 1742 Glenview Road on Saturday, April 18 from 4-11 p.m.

“We’ve had several requests, from Glenview residents, to open a Rock House so when the time came to move forward, we took a closer look and it seemed like the kind of community we wanted to become a part of,” owner Chris Karabas said.

Karabas and Robert Mueller, co-owner, will perform with The Lonesome Rodeo during the grand opening lineup of students’ bands.

The business will also offer music classes for all ages, ranging from “Rockin’ Tots” to “Soccer Mom to Rocker Mom” and “Rock & Roll Daddy-O.”

“The Rock House Coffee Bar & Roasting Company is a laid back environment with rock designs and paraphernalia throughout,” according to the Chamber. “ The café doubles as a music/party venue that hosts a variety of events and student showcases. They serve up ear pleasing music, organic teas and coffee that is roasted in the café by their own Roast master.”
