Whole Venue at Cherry Circle Room

Cherry Circle Room is the reinvention of the iconic restaurant of the same name that has serviced the Chicago Athletic Association and its members for generations. The intimate, James Beard award-winning space (Outstanding Restaurant Design) has been fully reimagined and restored by Land and Sea Dept., melding the building's historic original features with modern design elements that root the experience firmly in the present.

Award-winning Chicago-based creative studio Land and Sea Dept. is proud to operate the second floor bars and restaurants at the historic Chicago Athletic Association hotel: Cherry Circle Room, Drawing Room, Game Room, and Milk Room. These venues offer a range of experiences for visitors—creative cocktail, food and wine offerings, private and semi-private party options, as well as diverse and engaging event programming.
