Nestled thirteen stories above the hustle and bustle of Michigan Avenue, the historic Chicago Athletic Association hotel welcomes guests into what is known as its crown jewel: Cindy’s. Honoring its namesake, Cindy Pritzker - the philanthropic mother of our hotel’s co-founder, John Pritzker - the restaurant embodies a graceful devotion to the City in which it overlooks, apparent throughout ambiance, flavor, and experience.

Cindy’s is conveniently located within the Financial District, also known as the Loop, close to iconic attractions including Millennium Park, the Art Institute, Museum Campus, lakefront and more – all showcased with sweeping views from the terrace. The airy space boasts vaulted glass ceilings flooding the dining room with natural light, a beautiful juxtaposition against the restored hotel’s true-to-gothic interior. See for yourself why Cindy’s earned a 2016 James Beard nomination for Best Restaurant Design. Complementing the atmosphere reminiscent of a Lake Michigan beach house, Cindy’s food and beverage team rotates offerings to highlight the Midwest’s bountiful seasonality. Executive Chef Christian Ragano, Chef de Cuisine Keith Potter, Pastry Chef Jove T. Hubbard and Spirit Guide Nandini Khaund join forces to infuse classic comfort with culinary innovation, resulting in a menu filled with family-style dishes and large format

apothecary cocktails.

Sit beside friends, family and colleagues for an unsurpassed experience, only to be found at Cindy’s.

PRIVATE DINING ROOM – THE LIBRARYThe Library offers an exclusive dining experience for both special occasions and corporate functions. The space features floor-to-ceiling glass partitions along the interior wall, allowing visibility of the main dining room while limiting its ambient sounds. The room opens up to a beautiful brick fireplace adorned by an original Andy Warhol portrait of Cindy Pritzker.

Our beautiful atrium floods the space with natural light, while the enclosed glass exterior wall encourages guests to gaze onto the breathtaking view of Lake Michigan. Weather permitting,

parties hosted in the Library are able to reserve the south portion of the outdoor terrace adjacent to the private dining room. The private dining room can accommodate up to 30 seated and 45 standing. The Library is named as tribute to the lifelong work of Cindy Pritzker, who founded the Chicago Public Library Foundation in 1986 and helped open the Harold Washington Library in the Loop.
