Housed within the newly renovated Hilton Chicago/Oak Brook Hills Resort & Conference Center, new farm-to-table concept B. has been introduced, designed by locally based firm O’Kelly Kasprak. Situated on 150 private acres on an Audubon Certified Cooperative Sanctuary, B. includes a restaurant, patisserie, and lounge that draw influence from the site’s history as a polo club and golf and recreation hub, and feature several gardens providing vegetables and herbs.
The midcentury modern venue is filled with natural tones and splashes of color in elements such as worn gray stones and leather. Geometric tile patterns also exude a modern and clean vibrancy with orthogonal lines defining the open concept. Walnut-toned silhouette furniture and subtle brass accents emphasize casual luxury while artwork and carpeting add a touch of whimsy.
The 167-seat eatery includes floor-to-ceiling windows afford expansive views of the gardens and hills, infusing a bright airiness by day and a sense of intimacy by night. The casual yet luxurious B. Lounge features a woodfired oven and elevated communal tables as part of its socially oriented atmosphere.
