Harper Court
Welcome to Harper Court. Developed in partnership with the University of Chicago and the City of Chicago, Harper Court is set to return to Hyde Park in 2013 and provide the community with the destination it needs and so richly deserves. To Hyde Park, Harper Court is more than just real estate. It’s a gathering place, a community anchor and a longtime beacon for the arts. It’s vibrant and alive – a neighborhood stronghold with something to say – namely, that it’s been waiting for this.

"Two of Chicago’s most exciting restaurants, Beverly’s Sanders BBQ and Hyde Park’s Mahari, are teaming up for one day only with a brunch menu curated specifically for this event. Tickets include a full meal, with a cash bar available. Sanders BBQ burst onto the local scene when it opened in 2024, quickly earning accolades, including being a James Beard semifinalist this year. Mahari, an African fusion restaurant, opened last year in Hyde Park. It was named the city’s best neighborhood restaurant at the Banchet Awards in January."
