About this venue
Welcome to PALMHOUSE. We are foodies. We are party hosts. We are cocktail connoisseurs. We believe that your event should be as smooth as good tequila. We are a community of Hospitality and Event professionals who are dedicated to making your next event THE BEST it can be. We have spent the last 10 years hosting a variety of events throughout Evanston + Chicagoland and kept coming back to how we could bring a city-vibe venue to the far north side. We’ve thrown enough parties to know what’s most important, and want to help you simplify the event planning process to make it everything you dreamed of, without the fuss — and with that, PALMHOUSE was born. DAMN we love a good party, and can’t wait to help you host your next celebration!

We love Palmhouse!
It's always the dream team when we work with Palmhouse! The space is incredibly beautiful with wood beams, brick walls, and natural light from the skylights and windows filling each room. Not to mention, they have two beautiful bars where they serve super creative signature cocktails tailored to each event. Major bonus points for the farm tables, farm style high tops, and chairs that are included in their venue rental! The team is so thoughtful, easy to work with and professional. You know your event is in good hands when you book at Palmhouse.
