The Guild is a cafe, bookstore, vinyl-forward bar, and event space located above Subourbon in downtown Wheaton. It is designed as a modern third place: somewhere to slow down, read, listen, gather, and think clearly.

We are located at 121 W Front Street in downtown Wheaton, Illinois, above Subourbon. The main entrance is on Front Street; accessible entry is at the rear of the building via Wesley.

Hours vary by concept and programming. For the most current schedule, check concept pages like Cafe and Bookstore, and review current announcements.
