chicago private cooking partyNeed the whole place to yourself?

For what ever the occasion, Southport Grocery and Café is a great destination for a corporate event, girls-night-out, shower, rehearsal dinner and, yes, we even hosted an actual engagement! It is a great size and a great space!

Work with us to create your special event. We can accommodate up to 45 people for a sit down event, more for a mingling affair. Cooking demonstrations can be added to the event…a perfect way to learn about the special products avaialable in the grocery.  Our cafe and catering menus are available to you, as well as a host of seasonal dinner items. 

So please call us well in advance so we can plan and meet all of your needs!
