The Walnut Room

Iconic/NotableLoop · American Community-sourced, unverified
📍 111 N State St, Chicago, IL 60602

The Walnut Room is a historic restaurant on the 7th floor of the Macy's (former Marshall Field's) building on State Street, known for its walnut paneling and a glass-skylit courtyard fountain, open since 1907 — one of the oldest restaurants in continuous operation in the country.

$$

The chicken pot pie is the dish that comes up most in reviews, decades of regulars ordering the same thing. Afternoon tea service ($45) with a mimosa flight ($15) books through OpenTable's 'experiences' option specifically — booking the regular dining reservation instead has tripped up at least one reviewer looking for tea service.

A 4.5-star rating across roughly 9,400 OpenTable reviews is a massive, current sample for a restaurant this old.
