Celeste is an exceptional twist on the traditional American drinking establishment, consisting of four unique levels that architecture, art movements, social clubs, and the blurring of boundaries between art and life inspire. The fine dining and imaginative cocktails perfectly complement the thoughtfully designed space. What sets Celeste apart is that a talented ensemble cast collaborates to create an unparalleled experience. The vintage glow of the building, which was initially a glass factory, adds a nice touch. There are four levels, each with a unique ambiance - Cocktail Bar, Deco Supper Club, Disco, and Garden. The Whiskey Bar on the first floor is perfect for a casual evening with friends. In contrast, the Deco Supper Club on the second floor provides a glamorous throwback to Chicago's architectural history. The third-floor Disco promises to be fun, and the fourth-floor Garden offers a beautiful escape with its retractable glass rooftop and Victorian furniture.
