Pet-Friendly Guidelines:
Well-behaved, supervised dogs are welcome. Please disclose the number of dogs and guests when submitting your inquiry or booking request. All pets must remain under their owner’s supervision, and guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.
Please keep decorations and activities appropriate for the space. No aggressive or disruptive animals, excessive barking, or activities that could damage the property are permitted.
Milieu by DPS is located in a residential area, so DJs, live bands, and amplified music are not permitted. We ask all guests to keep noise at a respectful level, especially after 10 PM.
Make your pup’s special day memorable at Milieu by DPS!
HOUSE RULE – NOISE & MUSIC POLICY
To comply with noise reduction regulations in our residential neighborhood, we enforce stricter guidelines prohibiting DJs, amplified music, and live bands. Requests for DJ or live music cannot be accommodated.
You may use our JBL Boombox on site at 25–30% volume, keeping the sound at conversational level. Encourage guests to avoid yelling or shouting over the music — that’s usually louder than the boombox!
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work with the Pilsen community and property management to maintain a safe and respectful environment for all guests.
Party Supplies:
Guests must provide their own party supplies. We do not provide table covers, ice, plates, cups, plasticware, or napkins. If needed, please bring your own cooler for beverages.
Holiday & Seasonal Themes:
We decorate our venue according to holidays and seasons.
Keep in mind: we are also a retail space, so furniture may come and go and might not appear exactly as pictured. You’re welcome to visit the space before booking to check it out—appointments only.
