Since 1857 Iwan Ries & Co. has provided the finest tobacco products, coupled with a dedication to premium customer service. Connoisseurs from around the world have visited Chicago expressly to browse America’s oldest family-owned tobacconist’s extensive selection of cigars, pipes and tobaccos. Housed in the Historic Landmark Adler & Sullivan Jeweler’s Building at 19 S. Wabash, Iwan Ries & Co. is proud to make history once again with “The Front Room,” Chicago’s only private smoking club. Enjoy a sporting event on the HDTVs, or simply unwind with a favorite smoke and drink (BYOB). Distinguished guests can relax among five generations of history in this lavish lounge. “The Front Room,” fully equipped with WiFi, also features a board room for private meetings.

The 33 Club’s fresh take on familiar favorites combined with its distinct 1930s iconic style and high energy has afforded the richly appointed venue a reputation of the grandest quality. From signature menu items that easily match the price, to being the premier destination for area events, the 33 Club has established itself as a unique and contemporary alternative to the “Old” Town scene.

Building on what the Chicago Tribune called “A gorgeous space where the menu is executed skillfully….A jewel!”, 33 Club offers an extensive weekend Brunch menu at its magnificently decorated location. The regular Brunch menu includes items such as Whole Wheat Banana Pancakes, Hand-Sliced Smoked Salmon on a Toasted Bagel, and a selection of egg dishes including House-Made Corned Beef Hash, customized 3 Egg Omelettes, and Egg Sandwiches. Sides feature Chicken and Apple Sausage, Ham Off the Bone, and Nueske Bacon. Specialty breakfast cocktails, including the “33 Bloody Mary” are also available. 33 Club has always been “family friendly” and features an eclectic collection of children’s favorites on its special “Kids Menu”.

33 Club’s outdoor patio is also now open (weather permitting), and is a perfect place for lunch in the timeless Old Town neighborhood. Lunch dishes include salads, such as the Salad Nicoise, and signature burgers, including the Smoked Bacon White Cheddar, and the 33 Turkey Burger. The dinner menu at 33 Club, loaded with American classics, is where, according to the Chicago Sun-Times, the “ordinary becomes extraordinary.” Appetizers include a Colossal Shrimp Cocktail and Bacon Wrapped Dates. Entrees like the Center Cut Filet and Miso Glazed Chilean Sea Bass rule the evening. All Natural Roasted 1/2 Amish Chicken and Grilled King Salmon are also among favorite dinner dishes. 33 Club offers a variety of soups, salads and sides and simple yet delightful desserts like the Red Velvet Cake.

Transforming into a lounge by late night, 33 Club also features an extensive selection of up-scale bar snacks from Deviled Eggs to Bacon Popcorn, and a uniquely affordable wine list.
