Polo Café and Catering
December 1, 2003

Dinner will be served in Polo Café's handsomely renovated Old Eagle Private Room, built in 1914 as The Eagle Theatre, and often hosts special events. A copper top bar, hand-crafted chandelier, spectacular Zhou Brothers' oil painting, dramatic white décor and classy mahogany floor enhance the Old Eagle's simple elegance. As a special treat, Chicago's renown organist, Stanley Zimmerman will play the magnificent three-manual Rodgers 360 Theatre Organ on Old Eagle's mezzanine. "This is one of the City's hidden treasures," says Rick Kogan of Chicago Tribune Magazine/WGN-Radio AM 720.
