presentation or slideshow. Our food and beverage packages are all full

are looking for a more intimate gathering area. The back room can accommodate

up to 30 guests on busy game days however it comfortably seats 22 guests. If

you’re entertaining a group of clients before a Blackhawks/Bulls game or having a

small birthday party this is the spot for you. We can set up a custom food and

sure you have everything you need.

VIP. The front room can accommodate parties of 30-75 in a more social

environment. With plenty of space for large groups, up to 75 on game day, the

front room comfortably seats 50 guests in a formal setting. The front room has a

fireplace and large bay windows that open up to Ogden Ave. Parties in the front

will have a dedicated server on hand to make sure your group is taken care of.
