Things To Do
Deer Park Town Center
Lots of shopping and places to eat nearby the hotel and reception venue.
Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant
One of our favorites! Stop in for a meal or wine tasting.
Portillo's
A Chicago favorite!
Consume
A gastropub with a great variety of beer on tap as well as a great selection of non-alcoholic drinks as well.
Roaring Table Brewing Co
A great place for a beer and Detroit-style pizza. It's not a huge place, so it's better for smaller groups.
Lou Malnati's Pizzeria
If you're looking for Chicago-style pizza, Lou's is a great place to go. This location is takeout only, so plan for a picnic (if the weather is nice!) or to take it back to the hotel.
