What People Are Saying About Potter's

The Editor

Fred Schlatter

Citysearch

In Short – The heft of the Palmer House is allayed, somewhat, by whimsical details, like white feathers in repeating glass columns and back-lit black-and-white photos of recognizable Chicago personalities the likes of Hef and Payton. The floor is a sort of weathered hardwood, and the ceiling reflects the charm with stamped panels. Chesterfield sofas and tightly upholstered mustard-yellow club chairs are civilized seating options. Cocktails lean to vintage creations, like Singapore Slings, while the food, from Lockwood, is pure comfort--think truffled potato chips, pretzel bread…

The Details on Potter's

Know Before You Go:

This is one heck of a sophisticated place, ideal for entertaining big-shot clients or tossing one back before your driver whisks you home.

The Extras:

is available until 11pm nightly--one of the latest places to grab a bite in the city.

Parking:

Take advantage of the valet service. Who wants to drive in the Loop anyway?

When to Go:

Before a show--there are plenty of nearby theaters--this place is humming (but not crowded), as well as the early evening during the week. Avoid weekends when the Loop empties.

Where to Sit:

Your options are numerous, but somehow it's hard to feel better than when settled into one of the plump, tufted Chesterfields.
