Eat. Sleep. Beach. Repeat.

Summer has finally arrived! Our staff is fully vaccinated and ready to welcome everyone back with no restrictions. And a big thank you to those of you who patiently abided by our temporary dining rules. You rule.

We’re excited to announce that we now have patio seating, so make sure you bring your four-legged family members! Make a reservation here.

We’re updating our Summer menu with some new hoptails and dishes, and we’ve been working hard on a brunch menu (shhh…don’t tell), so stay tuned!

We no longer offer delivery, but feel free to order takeout here.

Thanks for hanging in there with us this past year. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Hello, and welcome back! The world has changed quite a bit since we last saw everyone, and we hope you all are staying healthy and safe. We miss the buzz, laughter, celebrations, awkward first dates, and people simply enjoying themselves here at H&C. After careful consideration, we now feel prepared to responsibly reopen.

GOOD NEWS / BAD NEWS

BAD NEWS FIRST – As you may know, Chicago has put a temporary ban on indoor dining until further notice. We will continue to monitor the situation and offer in-person dining only when we feel that it is safe to do so. GOOD NEWS – In the meantime, we are excited to announce we are offering takeout & delivery. Check out our new menu and order here.

REOPENING PROTOCOL

Our reopening has been thoroughly planned with the most important person in mind – you. Your health and safety are our top priority, and we have been working to ensure full compliance with the City of Chicago and State of Illinois regulations. Our staff continues to receive the most up-to-date COVID-19 training, and every team member completes a health survey and temperature check before each shift.

THE NEW NORMAL

Because of the current 40% capacity restrictions, we are limited to 25 guests in the dining room at a time with no more than six people per table. Hand sanitizer will be available by our entrance and throughout the restaurant, and time limits of 90 minutes will be implemented when necessary to allow our staff to have enough time to turn over and sanitize tables for the next group of diners. For your convenience, contactless menus and payments will be available.

MOVING FORWARD

With the Winter months coming soon, we know that outdoor dining will not be a practical nor desirable choice for diners and want to provide some reassurance that we have taken measures to keep our dining room safe. On a monthly basis, we have our dining room and kitchen electrostatically cleaned from Sani Solutions and our HVAC system maintained with new MERV 13 air filters.

TAKEOUT & DELIVERY

We are excited to announce that we are offering takeout & delivery services with a limited menu. Check out our today’s menu and order here. Please call 773-904-8835 with any questions about your order.

IN-HOUSE DINING & RESERVATIONS

We understand that everyone may not feel comfortable dining-in at this time. When it is safe, and the local government allows, please call 773-904-8835 for reservations or feel free to just come by as we do accept walk-ins if seating is available.

COME JOIN US

Please join us for our brand new food & drink menu, always made with love. We have gone to great lengths to stay open and to bring back a place of familiarity and comfort to the community. Now, more than ever, we are looking forward to serving the neighborhood again. See you soon!
