The Drawing Room is a cozy, decadent lounge with fireplaces and excellent beverages. Say you go to the Art Institute and you want to read a book or sit down for a snack afterwards, this is a great spot across the street. A lot of SAIC folks hang out here to work; it's giving more of a library patina than a student union.
