100% Plant-Based restaurant in Wicker Park. We have always had the core belief of being as good to ourselves (and the earth) as possible, but as we grow, we have always wanted to do more. With this desire, we decided to open Bloom Plant Based kitchen. Not only is eating a more plant-based diet healthier and more forgiving to one’s body, but it is significantly better for the environment. However, with healthy plant-based options not being the popular choice, we know we have stiff competition. Therefore, our intention with Bloom is to focus on bringing flavorful, healthy, and affordable plant-based food to families while also being desirable and appealing to everyone regardless of their diet.

    I've eaten at Bloom three times over the past two years, and I can't wait to return. The plant-based cuisine is flavorful and inventive. I'm an omnivore, and Bloom is some of my favorite food in Chicago. The servers are great and can give more details and recommendations on the menu, and you can't go wrong with your choice- everything I've had is delicious! The tables are a bit close together, but the acoustics are good, so you won't have an issue chatting with your party.

    something that set the Violet hour apart from other cocktail lounges was simply how attentive our server was. she walked by a few times and she recognized that we were in the middle of a conversation it was very respectful to not interrupt rather waiting for the perfect moment to approach us in between conversation and ask if we needed anything else it's the small details like that that make an establishment is great as the Violet hour.
