Movie-themed bar museum serving street food and cocktails
"The owners of Press Room, a West Loop wine bar, have taken over the former Vajra space in West Town and have two chefs working on a restaurant and bar that will serve street food from the Asian diaspora." - Ashok Selvam
"Inside the 28 Liberty Street tower in FiDi, the Press Room will function as a bar and museum attached to Alamo Drafthouse’s first Manhattan theater, showcasing more than 50,000 letterpress film-advertising plates from the 1930s through the 1980s and sitting in the same building as Danny Meyer’s Manhatta. Drinks will include nearly 50 beers and cocktails, with some cocktails made using a French press, and board games will be available for visitors; on weekends the bar will use its vintage letterpress to create “souvenir postcards” based on the memorabilia. The new theater will have 12 screens, and both are expected to open later this year." - Serena Dai
"I noted that Press Room, the wine bar and restaurant inside the Publishing House B&B in the West Loop, has new managing partners Petros Papatheofanis and Cristian Mendoza Jarquin while executive chef Jeff Smith and sommelier Anton Valkov remain in place." - Ashok Selvam
