Tucked just off the iconic Lincoln Park at the base of Hotel Lincoln, The Gilded Fox is a private space designed to feel both intimate and effortlessly elevated. Overlooking Wells Street, the room carries a warm, layered energy with a mix of high tops, low tables, and bar seating that can shift to match the tone of your event.

By day, it feels bright and connected to the neighborhood. By night, it leans into something more moody and celebratory. The space can host 50–60 guests for a standing cocktail reception or 30–35 for a seated experience, with the flexibility to clear tables entirely for a more open, social flow. A private bar anchors the room, while a large 65” television allows for added programming when needed, from presentations to game-day moments.

It’s a space that adapts easily, whether you’re hosting something high-energy or something more intimate, always feeling like its own destination within Lincoln Park.
