Chicago Firehouse Restaurant

I would highly recommend anyone having a party go to the Chicago Firehouse. The staff was amazing, they we so attentive the entire night. Our guests called me for days after event raving about the food and how beautiful everything was. Look no further than the Chicago Firehouse if you want to have a spectacular event and impress your guests

We cannot thank the Chicago Firehouse Restaurant for making our wedding dreams come true. We worked with Carolyn for over 2 years and we could not be more impressed with her professionalism, attention to detail, and communication. She was patient to answer the most detailed to the simplest of questions. We used the entire restaurant for our wedding-and every detail for every space was exactly what we envisioned. Actually-it was even more beautiful than we could’ve possibly imagined. Carolyn is a true professional, knows the space inside and out, and is wonderful to work with.

On the day of our wedding, Carolyn and Josh made sure every detail (big and small) were taken care of. Josh went out of his way on the day of to make sure my husband and I were doing ok throughout the whole night—he helped coordinate the vendors and the events throughout the night-he even went so far as to invite my husband and I to take a moment and view our reception space privately before all guests did. Carolyn and Josh are truly a dream team in wedding planning and execution.

CFH has exceptional food. As one of our favorite restaurants pre-wedding, we knew the quality of the food was amazing. For the actual wedding, the food was just as amazing, the service was incredible, and all of our guests felt that they were being personally catered to. No drinks were ever left empty and any every ask or need of our guests were answered. Dietary restrictions were adhered to diligently and guests were constantly amazed at the high level of service provided.

The Chicago Firehouse Restaurant went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams come true. The best day of our lives was made even better by the outstanding services provided. Thank you to Carolyn, Josh, and the whole Chicago Firehouse Restaurant team!

The Chicago Firehouse Restaurant saved our wedding!
Four weeks from our event, our venue went bankrupt, leaving us completely stressed out! Events manager, Caroline, responded quickly to our inquiry, and we had set up our new reception in less than a week.

When we came in to dine to check out the menu and see the space, our server Keith, and manager, Shannon, were so kind and hospitable. The level of service and quality of cuisine cannot be beat! We are truly grateful to the whole staff for making our day a magical one to remember.

We rented out the first floor of the space, patio included. At first, I was worried about the flow of the event with the dancing being separate from the dining room, and patio being closed off from the inside. But, it was actually perfect. Guests who hadn't seen each other for a long time could catch up on the intimate and quiet patio (and what a beautiful night it was!), while others could dance the night away in the front bar room. It was seriously otherworldly!

We wanted a "fancy dinner party" vibe over a traditional wedding reception and that's exactly what we got with the Firehouse! It was intimate, the service was excellent, and we loved that everything was included. They even created table settings for us and helped us execute our seating chart. It was the perfect venue and we loved showing off the best Chicago has to offer in the heart of one of our favorite neighborhoods, especially to our family and friends from out of town. WOuld recommend for every event!

The space is fantastic and the service couldn't have been better. We had a terrific rehearsal dinner.
