Celebrating in Uptown
Where Uptown hosts use linens
Uptown is also home to a deeply international community, with Vietnamese, Chinese, Ethiopian, Latino and other cultures along Argyle Street and Broadway. Banquets, weddings and New Year celebrations often fill restaurants and halls with long rows of round tables. If you're laying out a big room, send us your headcount and the floor plan and we'll build a table and chair count that matches how you want guests to sit.
Montrose Harbor and lakefront lawns
Skyline views and open grass for large family parties, subject to Chicago Park District permits and lake wind.
Linens here: Picnic tables need fitted or lap-length cloths; floor-length linens drag on the ground and stain on grass.
Historic theaters and ballroom-style rooms
Uptown's old entertainment buildings host concerts and special events, often with their own furniture and load-in rules.
Linens here: Venues often include white house linens. Renting colored or textured linens is the cheapest way to change the room.
Argyle Street banquet rooms
Restaurant and hall banquets for weddings, Lunar New Year and milestone birthdays, usually with large round-table layouts.
