A Chicago institution from Marshall Field’s Dept. Store heyday. Not as elegant as it used to be, but still fun for lunch . Serves classic favorites-the traditional pot pie is a must. Sit by the windows

Cody Mast

Around Christmas there is a long wait before 12pm. But if you come about 9am or 10am you can get right in at the time you want to eat. You can check in and get a pager and have time to look around

MRS. HERING'S 1890 ORIGINAL CHICKEN POT PIE (Individual crock of creamy chicken , carrots , sweet corn , leeks , peas , flaky pie crust top, side of Walnut Room salad )

ISC Chicago

Kitchen closes at 8, which is a problem for an after work dinner . The pot pie is really good. Half off bottles of wine on Wednesdays .

Kirstjen Lorenz

Good food. Excellent iced tea . waiters , linens and an interesting view in an old-fashioned restaurant . Prices are VERY modest. And you can always (except at holidays) walk in without a reservation

Greg Gbur

Fantastic meal -- great food, great atmosphere at almost criminally low prices. Frango mint cheesecake is wonderful!

Amy Joy

I was afraid they might have changed the recipe for the meatloaf from 10+ years ago when I came here as a child with my mom. I'm overjoyed they haven't. It's still delicious!!

Kameron Duncan

The food was awesome to eat the service was great and fast . If you do get Chicago you should go there and eat ..

Pam Quandt

If you want to fully enjoy The Walnut Room...the go on a weeknight for dinner . Sat right next to the tree and had no wait for a table.

ISC Chicago

Lovely ambience and rather quiet after the dinner crowd

Dan L

We're here for Christmas Dinner Buffet . Everything is good!

K Ashley

Kathlyn Williams

Swen! Great waiter ! And of course a must is the pot pie .

Jody Dellinger

Fantastic pot pie ! Best I have ever had!

Sarah Pichardo

Sit by the window - decent view of the city . Their chicken pot pie is perfection.

Gregorio T.

Head to the 8th floor for photos and lounge on the couches . The Marshall field 's staff is wonderfully tolerant of loungers !

Carol

The cheese plate isn't anything too special, but it's pretty good.

Simple Foodie

Great views and the Chicken Pot Pie

Paige Dyer

Lobster bisque was a bit on the salty side...be prepared for a wait or reserve a spot and go shop until your buzzer goes off.

Dana Parker

Not a lot has changed in this room since the hostile takeover. Still a great place for a midday break

samantha jones

complimentary limited edition Christmas mug with a specialty drink !

Diane Pond

Get the chicken pot pie , and enjoy 1/2 price bottles of wine on Wednesday

Ray Watters

Do not come a Christmas . They open at 6:45 and before noon it is a 4 hour wait ! Come back when you have a chance of getting in.

Kat ????

Delicious walnut salad !

Amelia Carpenter

They wear tuxedos . It's amazing.

Kirstjen Lorenz

Pot pie is a classic.

ISC Chicago

A Chicago institution but service is spotty

Mocha Mom365

This is THE place to be around Christmas . The tree in the room is SPLENDID!

Jason Domo

Great crab cakes ! :)

Timothy Schwier

Blt Burger !

Cookie Wallace

So beautiful at Christmas .

Elandra Wurm

Service was awful. Food was not that great. Atmosphere looked great around the tree but in the back corner where we were, it was crowded and hectic. Don't waste your time on this place.

Ross Guthrie

Go for the atmosphere, not the service.

Steve Szymczak

$5 Fridays, selected wines and cocktails for $5.

J 2K

Even the places that try to be classy are sadly failing. Still =)'ing tho!

Cherie T

Terrible burgers and fries . Service was even worse. No water or bread came, even after the soup arrived, until we asked for it. Lobster bisque was not tasty either.

Emily Holda

Ask to sit by the Christmas tree :)

Ken Box

Plan ahead. 4+ hour wait to eat

Katie

It is Marshall Fields , not Macys.

Celine Swicegood

Don't go. It's nasty and bland

Cleber Facanha

Apos comprar na Macys va ao setimo andar, linda vista, precos justos.

Mary Zepeda

Amé el árbol navideño y el pastel de carne el mejor que he probado ????
