Chicago venues — from historic large-scale venues on Museum Campus to intimate rooftop event spaces with picturesque views of Lake Michigan — have been perfectly curated for your Chicago event. If a breathtaking view is important for your party, consider a venue along the lake. Luxury hotel ballrooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, while on-trend restaurants offer private event spaces in the form of rooftops or patios. Character and personality are easily found in rustic lofts or modern warehouse spaces. Alternatively, prioritize the food at your party by choosing a Chicago restaurant renowned for its culinary experience. Each Chicago neighborhood offers its own history and charm, party venues included. The ever-evolving West Loop neighborhood is filled with warehouses and loft spaces, while Logan Square restaurants offer some of the most delicious cuisines — and beautiful interiors — in the city. Luxury hotels in the Gold Coast and along the Magnificent Mile are ideal if you have out-of-town guests, and even Wrigleyville continues to surprise with some of the newest Chicago venues. And don't forget about the suburbs: from Evanston to the North Shore and Oak Brook, beautiful Chicago wedding venues span far beyond the city limits. Browse thousands of photos of incredible Chicago event venues, save what you love, then contact your favorites to learn more and book a space.

    Café By The River

    110 N Upper Wacker Dr, Chicago, IL 60606, USA

    Chef José Andrés reimagines the traditional American coffee shop and café with a touch of the distinctive Spanish flavor that he is known for in his new restaurant, Café by the River. A café in Spain is much more than just a location where one may purchase a cup of coffee. It is a focal point for engaging in conversation, generating new ideas, and, of course, indulging in some gastronomic pleasure. Café by the River brings that mentality into the current day by mixing the tastes and warmth of Spanish cafés with the convenience of an American coffee shop. The café is located on the banks of the river that runs through the city. The café is located on the river walk level of the towering Bank of America Building, which is 55 stories tall. It serves office employees throughout the day, giving them with fuel and a side of Chicago River views. Café by the River provides something for everyone as Chicagoans head back to the workplace. Online ordering is accessible for those who want a quick morning caffeine kick, and the dining area is bright, open, and sprinkled with greenery for those who'd want to linger over lunch with friends. The Café by the River has a comprehensive selection of both coffee and tea. The cuisine options, which include breakfast served all day, sandwiches, salads, and pastries, all have a Spanish feel to them (a breakfast sandwich on Pan de Cristal bread, grilled cheese made with four Spanish cheeses, and the signature xuixo, a crispy fried cream-filled pastry rolled in sugar). Meetings and coffee breaks may be elevated to a higher level than the standard boxed lunches served in conference rooms by utilizing to-go and catering packages. The service at the café is usually courteous and swift, but it is never rushed. This ensures that office employees don't have to go too far away from their desks in order to indulge in a delectable meal or snack. In the course of the day, Café By The River provides the occupants of the Bank of America Tower as well as the inhabitants of Chicago with delectable cuisine and beverages that are refreshing. The area undergoes a complete makeover in the evening, transforming into an impressive venue that is perfect for organizing private gatherings. Our staff is available to collaborate with you in the organization of gatherings of varying sizes and themes.
