is a phrase I've taken seriously since starting Polo Nuts and Candy, Etc. in 1985. 

       Indeed, we've come such a long way from those days of over 400 varieties of candies

       and nuts, plus ice cream and popcorn, and in 1990 began focusing our culinary

       efforts and experience on Polo Cafe and Catering Bridgeport U.S.A.

        For more  than 26 years we continue to bring "something different . . .

       something wonderful!" to thousands of folks at The TASTE of Chicago where we've

       served Shark Veracruz, Stuffed Salmon, Crab Cake Nuggets, and Garlic-Mozzarella

        Cheese Bread during our 20 years along the lakefront, or with our spectacular home-

        made cookies & candy trays and custom gift baskets adorned by our signature

        satin  bows, or at our masterfully catered productions and  lavish, beautiful buffets

        which touch so many lives giving lots of precious memories for our customers and

        their guests.  

         Since 1997, I've offered an elegant private room attached to my restaurant called

         the "Old Eagle Room".  Originally built in 1914 as a neighborhood picture show

         named The Eagle Theater, it accommodates up to 100 guests, including a

         mezzanine.   According to The Chicago Sun-Times, "...it has some of the best

       acoustics in the City," and features a magnificent three-manual Rodgers 360 Theatre Organ (voiced by the late John Seng

        in 2000), a 20-channel audio/DJ system, and on the theatrically-lit stage, a rare solid walnut 1964 Wurlitzer Grand Piano

        for your total entertainment.

        Finally, I've recently added the latest extension of our hospitality:   Bridgeport Bed and Breakfast, four spacious 2-3 bedroom,

        handsomely decorated, themed suites with private bath above my legendary Polo Cafe with complimentary lighted parking lot

        and cooked-to-order breakfast downstairs in Polo Cafe. 

         Minutes south of the Loop, my place is ideal to gather for a special event, dinner or reception, wedding or holy/civi union

         ceremony, as  well as holiday parties, corporate seminars & team bonding, meetings, retreats, and entertainment perform-

         mances, plus unique overnight lodging. 

          I personally oversee the kitchen and the many details of each catered event, plus my bed and breakfast, and look forward

          to serving you soon!!
