Located on the second floor of the Mansion with four east-facing windows offering tree-top views of our 100 year old elm trees, this room offers seating for up to 30 Guests for a sit down event, or cocktail space for up to 50. It is especially popular for corporate board meetings, but the carved marble fireplace, crystal chandelier and ornate mahogany wainscoting make it perfect for lavish social events as well.

The Large Private Dining Room:
Also located on the second floor of the Mansion, the large private dining room boasts two working marble fireplaces, three crystal chandeliers and five foot tall mahogany wainscoting. Windows offering views both east and south make this the perfect space for a daytime office meeting or bridal shower. As many as 70 guests can sit down for lunch or dinner in this lovely room, 100 for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres. There is also a petite bar adjacent to this room with crystal sconces and a beautiful silk Italian tapestry.

The Outdoor Patio:
The front yard of our property, built by renowned Chicago architect Edward Burling in 1874, is home to one of Chicago’s most serene outdoor gardens. Wrapped in a period appropriate black wrought iron fence and home to flower boxes over-flowing with ivy, Guests enjoying our outdoor space feel as if they’ve stepped back in time. Depending on the season, we can serve pre-event cocktails and hors d’oeuvres outside beneath the twinkling Italian lights, or you may entertain a group as large as 50 for a sit-down dinner in your own “secret garden.”

The Entire Facility:
For a truly “over the top” event, the entire Il Mulino Chicago Mansion can be rented out. In addition to second floor rooms described above, the first floor offers three working fireplaces original to the home, as well as a large bar and three dining rooms outfitted with bookcases and five gorgeous vintage chandeliers.

Workforce suffering from low morale, poor team spirit, or a general lack of fun? Don’t fret, we have the cure and practically guarantee that your group will let loose, relax and laugh for hours.

WhirlyBall combines basketball, lacrosse, bumper cars, and an exciting series of ethical dilemmas, like “I know the boss is on my team, but I’d sort of like to crush him anyway.” Basically, it involves normally
sane adults driving bumper cars while using hand-held scoops to pass a whiffle ball to each other – and ultimately at a scoring target.

But while the score certainly matters to some, most people find themselves preoccupied with making their co-workers look silly.

For those who may have had a bad bumper car experience as a child, WhirlyBall also offers many other entertainment options such as video games, pool tables, foosball, high-def. big screen TVs, and the
only state-of-the-art Laser Tag game in Chicago – LASERTRON®.

Along with the fun game of WhirlyBall, it is now our privilege to match your increasing entertainment demands with the exciting game of LASERTRON. The game is played within our multi-level arena with ramps, walkways and bridges, and can be played with up to 30 players at a time with up to 6 people per team.

Four different colors will distinguish the members of opposing teams. Players are given a brief introduction to the game and equipment while sliding on their lightweight vests and headsets, before being released into the futuristic arena filled with obstacles, flashing lights and fog. With phasers in hand, players must seek out and ‘tag’ opposing team members to score points for their team.

With over 31,000 square feet of flexible event space, WhirlyBall Chicago can comfortably accommodate groups of 10 to 500 attendees.

Comprehensive A/V capabilities, including wireless Internet, are available in any of our six private meeting or conference rooms, and within our entire facility for larger events.

WhirlyBall also offers a complete F&B menu ranging from burgers and wings to brunch and more formaldinner buffets. Plus, our full-service bar offers a wide assortment of top shelf brand beverages and specialty drinks to quench one’s thirst after battle.

entertainers, photographers and DJs to centerpieces, lines and décor, a professional WhirlyBall Event Planner will guide you through all your available options.
