By Pictolic https://mail.pictolic.com/article/bank-vault-from-the-20s-turned-into-a-stylish-restaurant.htmlA few years ago, a former bank vault in Chicago was converted into a club-restaurant. Since the building was built in the 20s of the last century, the interior of the institution beat the existing historical and modern styles. The walls of the club-restaurant consist of more than 6,000 bank cells, and to get into the institution, you need to go through an armored door and bars. Dress code - club style or cocktail wear, instead of deposits and loans - food and drinks.

1. Basements are usually not the best place for a restaurant, but "The Bedford" (Chicago, USA) is an exception.

2. The restaurant is located in a former bank building and now anyone who wants to have a bite to eat can do it right in the bank vault.

3. Now you can dine in an unusual setting - around huge steel hatches, a couple of meters thick, powerful locks, a complex system of valves.

4. The restaurant was named "The Bedford", candlesticks and modern furniture were installed in the premises, but the main surroundings remained unchanged.

6. The whole setting is completely authentic and very impressive, like this huge round armored door, as if it came straight out of a gangster movie.
