The Cherry Circle Room at the Chicago Athletic Association hotel offers a quality breakfast experience in a unique atmosphere with distinctive ceiling lighting (very James Turrell-esque). While the pricing is somewhat premium, the straightforward yet satisfying food and good coffee make it a worthwhile morning option if you're staying at or near the hotel. The Van Doozer breakfast was well-executed and enjoyable. Nothing overly fancy, but a solid, satisfying breakfast option that delivers what you'd expect. Though slightly on the pricier side, the quality justifies a return visit for the reliable morning start. The coffee served was good quality, hitting that perfect breakfast companion note without being exceptional. It gave me my necessary morning boost. What truly sets this space apart is the stunning James Turell-esque lighting on the ceiling, creating a distinctive and memorable atmosphere that goes above and beyond just another hotel breakfast spot. One important note for first-time visitors; the main entrance can be tricky to locate, as it's accessed through the Game Room and positioned at the very back. If you're not looking carefully, it's easy to miss, so keep an eye out when navigating to the restaurant. If you visit the Cherry Circle Room for breakfast, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
An astonishing representation of a hidden gem in Chicago. Not only hidden in the athletic association, but it’s even more inconspicuous. Ya gotta know it’s here, and you gotta make a reservation. The service is without a doubt a shining representation and they should hang their reputation on it, but it’s the unique food choices and interesting menu items that really show how special this spot really is. The drinks by the extremely kind and attentive bartender were spot on. The food was absolutely delicious and incredibly flavorful. If you don’t get an order of the bread and the beet carpaccio, you’ve made a horrible life choice. My sister and I went with the seafood tower so we could try many different options, so I can’t speak to any of the main courses. However, one can’t imagine ordering wrong at a place like this. A must try when in Chicago.
We wanted to try this place a long time ago cause I love the idea of a small, cozy and elegant place. The service was very nice and the food on point. For sure we will come back to try their brunch. Thank you!
