Our Story
Our experience spans over a quarter of a century as former owners and operators of The Patio Restaurant and Banquet Center in Merrillville. We have also been the caterer of choice for two additional facilities in the Merrillville area, the Croatian Center and the Hellenic Center.When the community and businesses of Northwest Indiana demanded additional banquet and meeting facilities, we listened and took our experience and success to undertake the building of The Avalon Manor.
The Avalon Manor is the perfect backdrop for a wedding reception, fundraiser, corporate meeting, seminar, birthday party, or any other event you may be planning. Our venue offers customized ballrooms for any size event, whether it is a twenty person shower or a gala as large as 1,100 guests. The Avalon Manor contains over 16,500 square feet of elegant meeting space as the largest freestanding banquet facility in Northwest Indiana. Our extensive menu provides satisfaction for any taste you may have, as prepared by our in-house chef.
