Client Happenings: Sugar Factory Opens in Chicago

Have you head the news? We are very excited to welcome one of American’s favorite eateries and candy shops, Sugar Factory American Brasserie, to in the heart of the River North (55 East Grand Avenue) neighborhood, along with internationally-renowned celebrity sweets and signature treats. We couldn't think of a more perfect time for them to open - right before the holiday season making your gift giving a little bit sweeter!

Created by a team of world-class chefs, menu selections include everything from pancakes and sweet and savory crepes to salads, burgers and pizzas. Appetizers include bruschetta of the day, fried macaroni and cheese and mini burgers. Sandwiches and burgers include the buffalo chicken sandwich, made with buttermilk battered buffalo chicken breast, shredded lettuce, vine ripened tomatoes and celery aioli, served on a brioche bun; and Sugar Factory’s signature burger topped with crispy onions, house-made sauce, lettuce and cheese.

Don't worry, they offer amazing cocktails including the signature alcohol-infused smoking candy goblets, such as the Berry Bliss, a scintillating mix of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. The martini selections include the Sour Apple Lolly Martini, finished off with a Pop Rocks rim and lollipop in the glass; and the S’mores Martini, a comforting combination of chocolate and marshmallows, garnished with a graham cracker rim.

We hope you'll head over to their beautiful new space soon!
