This revered Chicago classic combines the grand, gracious hotel dining of yesteryear with contemporary French-American fare. The Pump Room remains popular with tourists and special-occasion celebrants. Booth One lives on, complete with vintage telephone; the bar could have been transported from a Thin Man set. The photo wall is a sentimental journey down the memory lane of film, music, and politics. Highlights include live music with a small dance floor and Sunday champagne brunch. The “upscale casual” dress code attests to the times.
