The Bur Oak

The Bur Oak stands as a testament to the harmonious blend of history and modernity, nestled in the vibrant Atwood neighborhood. This independently run event venue has breathed new life into a century-old building through extensive renovations. By exposing the original barrel roof, brick walls, and hand-laid tiles, the Bur Oak team has preserved the venue’s historic charm while infusing it with contemporary elegance. The use of reclaimed wood from the era and the addition of a Viennese-style stage in the Great Hall further enhance its unique character. The bar, with its hand-poured concrete top finished in a hard lacquer, adds a touch of vintage sophistication, creating an inviting space for all occasions.

With a seating capacity of 120 for ceremonies and 130 for receptions, The Bur Oak is perfectly equipped to host both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations. The venue’s versatility is further enhanced by the addition of a lower-level gathering hall and suite, offering a turnkey solution for weddings and receptions. Whether you’re attending a lively entertainment event or celebrating a personal milestone, The Bur Oak is designed to bring people together, fostering great conversation and memorable experiences. The venue’s mission is to celebrate individuality and provide a space where guests can express their true selves, creating memories that last a lifetime.

The Bur Oak invites you to explore its charming spaces through a 360° Virtual Tour, offering an exclusive sneak peek into the venue’s unique ambiance.

At The Bur Oak, the goal is to make every guest feel “at home,” ensuring that each event is as special and personal as the people celebrating.
