Located in the Carleton off the main lobby is Philander’s Restaurant,
offering you the finest American and Continental cuisine in the area.

his photographs depicting the glory days of Oak Park. The restaurant

oak and marble octagonal jazz bar and upscale

outdoor café in
the summer, and bar menu.
