Loft on Lake
1366 West Lake Street | Chicago, IL 60607
Loft on Lake is an original, independent event venue in one of Chicago’s most vibrant neighborhoods. The interior is a refined loft space that can be transformed into the exact look and style you are dreaming of, whether you’re planning a wedding ceremony and reception, cocktail-style gathering, or branded corporate function.
Complete with finished wood trim, chandeliers, perimeter lighting, and spotlights, the space is easy to create anything from an intimate, romantic setting to a sleek, modern atmosphere. The main loft is naturally beautiful on its own, yet offers endless possibilities for different room configurations, decor approaches, and even specialty setups.
Loft on Lake is recognized as an award‑winning venue, including “Best New Chicago Venue” honors. With a seated capacity of approximately 150 guests (and up to about 200 for cocktail-style events), it’s ideal for weddings, receptions, corporate events, and social gatherings seeking a classic Chicago loft experience.
Our Chicago catering company has firsthand experience working with Loft on Lake and personally recommends this venue. Visit their website below to learn more.
