Woodie’s Flat Virtual Walk-Through
Woodie’s Flat is built for holiday parties that don’t feel like an obligation. Located in the heart of Old Town, we bring together award-winning wings, cold beer, and wall-to-wall TVs in a space that knows how to host a crowd. Our second-floor lounge and semi-private event spaces are ideal for company happy hours, team celebrations, and end-of-year blowouts. Planning something bigger? Full-floor and full-venue buyouts are on the table, and yes, the games (or your favorite holiday movies) will still be on.
The space does the heavy lifting for you. Massive TVs for nonstop sports or festive holiday movies, a lively second floor that keeps the energy up, a lower-level lounge for groups that want their own lounge, and a dog-friendly patio for those rare mild winter days. Woodie’s keeps the TVs on, the wings moving, and the beer cold, making it an easy win for teams looking to celebrate the end of the year without forcing fun. Catch college football, NHL, NBA, WNBA, or just show up, shut off Slack, and let the night take over.
Then there’s the food. Our wings are the reason people keep booking events here. Three-time People’s Choice winners at Chicago’s Wing Out Festival and proudly defended by our GM Shawn, who claims he’ll pay for your wings if they aren’t the best you’ve ever had. Pair them with a sizable beer list, cocktails, and even non-alcoholic THC seltzers for teams that want options without the hangover.
We host holiday gatherings starting at 9 guests and scale all the way up to 150-person buyouts. Woodie’s Flat sits just off Wells Street in Old Town, within walking distance of The Lincoln Hotel, Ambassador Chicago by Hyatt, Claridge House, Level Chicago, and The Sono Chicago. If you’re planning a holiday party or company happy hour that people will actually show up for, you’re looking at the right place.

Common questions related to booking and planning private events at Woodie’s
How far in advance can you book an event?
You can book a party with us up to 12 months in advance. We recommend booking an event 4-6 weeks in advance if possible, but can always accommodate last-minute groups. We get very busy for game days so reserve in advance if possible.
Can I rent out the entire venue or just a floor or one section?
Yes! Our event planners can guide you through the entire process, block of specific tables or areas, and even book your entertainment, DJ, or team-building activity.
Can we bring in outside food or a cake?
Yes! You can have your cake from a commercial bakery, but we do not allow outside food for private events
Can we have the sound on for a game for our group?
Depending on the date and space you book, you may also be able to have dedicated event sound. For second floor events where the entire space is reserved, it is likely we can also play game sound. We suggest asking one of our event planners to know for sure.
I am not quite sure what my per person budget is, should I still reach out to discuss options with an event planner?
Yes! Our event team has worked with just about any budget, and it’s always nice to know what your options are based on your group size or needs.
How long does Christmas/Holiday decor stay up?
Holiday decor is up from December through early February. If you’d like holiday decor for your event in February, reach out to our event planners so we don’t take it all down too early!
Can I have a special menu or holiday cocktail for my event?
Yes. Woodie’s offers seasonal cocktail menu changes, and have had plenty of
