Dining at the House of Blues Hotel

Bin 36 - Owned separately from the hotel, this adjoining restaurant is the only one in the Marina City Complex that offers guests room-charge privileges. Part wine store, part restaurant, Bin 36 has two dining areas: the white-linen, upscale Cellar and the more casual Tavern. They converge at a huge, oval bar that draws a bustling after-work crowd. The Cellar features a five-course tasting menu of inventive American cuisine. The Tavern serves fancy pizzas, burgers, and sandwiches. Breakfast and lunch are also served daily.

Bin 36 Coffee Bar - Open from early morn on, this small bar offers espresso drinks, pastries, and croissants.

Kaz Bar - This dramatic lounge has seating areas framed by Moroccan-style tents. Live blues and rock music is free on Friday and Saturday nights. The bar opens in early afternoon, with light fare available from the Bin 36 kitchen.
