About LUXBAR

LUXBAR hosts private dinners, rehearsal dinners and cocktail receptions for 10 to 125 guests in two private rooms in the Gold Coast, Chicago. The Gibsons Restaurant Group bar on Bellevue Place gives groups a classic American bar setting with event space on its own floor.

Both private dining rooms are on the second floor. The Bar Room has its own bar and seats 10 to 30, or holds up to 60 for a cocktail and hors d'oeuvre reception. The larger Fireplace Room seats 10 to 80, or holds up to 125 for a reception. Each is a private room, and the two adjoin, so a party can take cocktails on one side and sit down to dinner on the other.

Event food is the kitchen's all-American cooking with classic handcrafted cocktails, and the bar is known for whiskey and bourbon. The rooms have black marble accents, oak floors, zebra wood walls and warm cove lighting. Glass doors open onto a balcony with views of State Street and Bellevue Place.

Private events are planned with LUXBAR's private events team, who work out the room, the format and the timing with each group. Guests can view a virtual tour of both rooms before deciding. Valet parking is available in front of Gibsons.

Planning your event

A group chooses one of LUXBAR's two second-floor private rooms, or both, and plans the details with the venue's private events team. The event runs as a seated dinner or a cocktail and hors d'oeuvre reception, with food from the all-American kitchen and cocktails from the bar.

Vibe: Refined and warm, in the style of a classic American bar: black marble, oak floors, zebra wood walls and soft cove lighting upstairs, with checkerboard floors, mahogany and a long bar downstairs.
Space layout: The main bar and dining room are on the ground floor. The private event space is upstairs: the Bar Room with its own bar, and the larger Fireplace Room. The two rooms adjoin and share glass doors onto a balcony over State Street and Bellevue Place.
Private events: Both rooms are fully private. Events are planned with the private events team. A virtual tour shows both rooms. No minimum spend or room fee is published.
Food & drinks: Groups are served the kitchen's all-American food, made with locally sourced ingredients, alongside classic handcrafted cocktails. Receptions are set up for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. The bar leans toward whiskey and bourbon, with a Build Your Own Manhattan menu, a wine list and local beers. A gluten-free menu is available.
Group size: Bar Room: 10 to 30 seated, up to 60 for a cocktail reception. Fireplace Room: 10 to 80 seated, up to 125 for a cocktail reception.
