Ceres Cafe is a diner in the lobby of the Chicago Board of Trade Building. [1] [2] It takes its name from the Roman goddess Ceres, which is a statue on the top of the building.

History
The restaurant began as Broker's Inn in 1967 [6] and then moved to its current location and changed its name in December 1989. [3] [7] In 2019, Chicago Police superintendent Eddie Johnson was found asleep in his car after having “a couple of drinks” at Ceres. [8] [5]
