Explore exciting private party rooms in Chicago
Looking to host a Sweet 16, team building, or graduation party? Stepping away from the crowds to give your guests the entire space means conversations become easier and everyone has that much more fun. Private party venues in Chicago make it easy to forget the world for a few hours and get funky with your old and new friends.
Some of our favorite private party rooms are decorated in a themed manner. Polynesian tiki bars are some of our favorites. What better way is there to forget winter's chill than downing cocktails in a private tiki lounge room, surrounded by palm trees and coconuts? Other private party rooms may be outfitted to fit pop culture icons like Barbie, Spongebob, or the Golden Girls. You get a more immersive experience to go along with an already awesome party.
What about restaurants with private party rooms in Chicago?
Restaurants are fantastic private party room venues because they provide the food and drinks. Many are BYOB and the catering ranges from bar snacks to global cuisine. Rooftop bars and restaurants offer an unmatched view of the city's iconic skyline, complete with cool summer breezes and twinkling stars. Street-level restaurants are intimate affairs where the outside traffic noise disappears and you can enjoy live music alongside your guests.
Murasaki Lounge, in the near North Side, is a sake bar and restaurant featuring small plates and traditional Japanese fare. What's more, they have private karaoke rooms. You and your guests can hold a party, enjoy fantastic food, and explore thousands of American and Japanese hit singles.
BLVD Steakhouse by Fulton Market is a swanky upscale restaurant with several private and semi-private dining spaces. Close to BLVD is Green Street Events, who offer a rooftop venue that has capacity for up to 400 guests and a delightful menu to select from.
Hosting a private dinner party in Chicago
Choosing the right private party venue in Chicago will make or break your event. Any dinner party space where toasts, speeches, or screenings are planned should be spacious and technologically well equipped. Does your venue offer microphones, speakers, projectors, and other audio-visual technology? If your outdoor venue is visited by a sudden rain, do you have a backup indoor option for folks to escape the drizzle? Make sure your chosen dinner party space has a tent or pavilion if the forecast looks chancey. With these steps taken in advance, your Chicago private dinner party is sure to be a success.
