Enjoy a fine dining experience at the Allerton Supper Club. This once-per-month outing was created to build a community through a shared love of food, arts and education.
An impressive group of cutting-edge chefs have been scheduled, all of whom embody creativity and mastery of their craft. One of our aims in 2024 is to achieve new heights in both diversity and experience. Every dinner will be uniquely curated with entertainment and cuisine, so no two dinners will be alike.
When you join the Supper Club, you gain access to five upscale, unique dinners from local artisan chefs. Each dinner will feature a specifically crafted menu and a chance to hear from and interact with our chef. In addition to the individual dinners, club members will also have access to an early cocktail hour. Other surprises and complimentary perks are also planned.
Limited club member tickets are on sale now. The cost is $500 for the entire series, and all sales are final. Reserve your space by calling Allerton at 217-333-3287. Dinners will be held in different places at the park, adding to the unique experience of each Supper Club evening. All sales are final.
Tickets for individual dinners will go on sale Nov. 30.
