About The Bamboo Room at Three Dots and a Dash

The Bamboo Room at Three Dots and a Dash is a rum bar in River North, Chicago, with a private room for birthday parties and corporate events of up to 25 guests. It sits inside Three Dots and a Dash at 435 N Clark St, entered from the alley, and its cocktail menu is built around rum and rhum agricole under Beverage Director Kevin Beary. Esquire named it one of the Best Bars in America.

The venue calls The Bamboo Room its premier private space: a secluded 22-seat bar that takes up to 25 guests seated or standing for a private party, away from the bustle of the main bar. Bigger groups can also look at the semi-private areas of Three Dots and a Dash next door or a full takeover of the tiki bar for up to 250.

Food for a private party comes from the Three Dots and a Dash special events menu. Options include passed appetizers served cocktail style, such as crab rangoon, tropical tuna ceviche and teriyaki chicken skewers, and the Victory Buffet of island-style mains, fried rice and salads. A premium bar package is priced per person for two, three or four hours. The room itself is dark and intimate, with tiki carvings, hanging greenery and a deep rum list served as cocktails and flights.

Events are planned with the venue's Parties & Special Events team, whose private dining managers confirm availability and build a custom event with each group. Food and drink come from the in-house kitchen and bar only, and the room has a sound system, though groups cannot bring their own DJ. The Bamboo Room is 21+, wheelchair accessible and open Wednesday through Sunday evenings.
