The Map Room
Pilsen Provisions · Pilsen · sits 10–22
One table, twenty-two chairs, walls covered in old CTA and Sanborn maps. The kitchen sends family-style courses at a pace that keeps people talking instead of looking at their phones. The bathroom is down a flight of stairs — worth knowing before you invite someone who can't manage them.
$38/person family-style. Drinks separate. No room fee. Shindig charges you nothing to find this room or ask for it. Whatever you spend, you spend with Pilsen Provisions.
