Inspired by bold designs of the Roarin 20’s and Art Deco 30’s, Chase Club at the historic Chase Park Plaza Hotel invokes the original spirit of times past. As Prohibition ended, the pendulum swung back to indulging & entertainment (Live Music, Great Food and Free Flowing Alcohol). Influenced by the Speakeasys and extravagant style of a bygone era, the concept for Chase Club was born. Chase Club features a well crafted gastro-pub menu, a huge bar, a dining area with large adjoining patio overlooking the Chase Park Plaza pool, and even a outdoor fireplace with seating area to keep you toasty on chilly nights. Big screen TVs and plush seating provide the perfect lounging atmosphere for an afternoon or evening of sports.

    Valentine's Day was a fixed menu - two entrees, two appetizers, two desserts options. They offered a lovely "palate cleanser" between the apps and the entree -- nice touch. They also offered us "free" champagne as we entered -- another nice touch. (I say "free" because it's a fixed price so I'm sure it was covered in there but, still, a lovely way to be greeted.) Our server was friendly, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. Parking was free (validated when we paid our bill) and convenient. We will definitely be back.

    It was our first time visiting and we really enjoyed the experience. The service was excellent, and the food was amazing. Unexpectedly, the sliders were awesome. We are planning our return to try other things on the vast menu.
