Dining and drinks

A discrete and exclusive evening lounge known for precise cocktails, muted conversations, and as a place to meet without necessarily being seen.

Bernard’s is grounded in the perfect delivery of classic cocktails showcased with exquisite spirit expressions while surrounded by an interior inspired by the famous men in Coco Chanel’s life that are rooted in rich, dark colors, classic forms, tweeds from the Scottish Highlands, and equestrian influences. We offer a robust and curated spirits list to round out the experience -paying tribute to the past through moments grounded in the present.

The Brass Tack provides fashionable cocktails and tasteful dishes made with locally-sourced ingredients. We offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner on weekdays and breakfast, brunch, and dinner on weekends.

Executive Chef Nicholas Marino blends the traditions of a Brasserie with boisterous approachable American cuisine and a distinctly Chicago touch. Curating a menu that utilizes the best local ingredients from the Midwest region, with each dish prepared with classic technique and heart.
