The Chainlink

Way, way back in 2007, h' introduced me to The Wings Cafe in Logan Square. It was a nice, simple bar, but with decent, interesting food. Not presumptuous, no loud music or singles scene, family friendly, dimly lit. Universal appeal. 

It was my perfect place for a party, so I returned and threw another one on my birthday. 

This year, I would like to do it again, but The Wings is long gone, sadly. 

Can anyone think of a place that would be very cheap, maybe might even let me use a room? Family friendly, welcoming all ages kids through seniors. Serving alcohol, very casual, in Chicago?

check out Black rock on Damen, they have a room in back

You might also look into Pete's Pizza on Western near Waveland. I don't know if they have a 'room' but I've met family there when it was pretty empty (it was a very cold winter day- may have been a factor.)

See if Jaks Tap in the West Loop might work for you. They have a side room that's suitable for large groups. Nice place. Good food and good beer selection. Bike friendly. Moderate prices.

Ooh good call.

I've seen a kids party at Piece, on that lower floor.  

We've done the party pit at Piece (coworker group).  It seems like it might hold about 15 comfortably.

 

Not particularly quiet though.

I went to Jaks and Pete's last night. Jaks might work. I would rather not have to pay, but perhaps I'll just take the free room with minimal perks and not make a fuss. Pete's wouldn't take a group of over 50 on a Saturday night, although it looked like a really nice place. 

Thanks everyone for your help!

I went to a family friendly party this weekend at Declan's. It's worth looking into. I'm not sure if they charge for reserving their extra room.
