The Walrus Room came to the downtown Geneva scene last year. However, in that short time they have become a staple in Downtown. Their motto is “a supper club of sorts,” with a modern twist on Midwest dishes.

“A supper club of sorts.“

Midwestern dishes that equate comfort, fresh ingredients, and ingenuity. This week we have been focusing on Fair Trade, Direct Trade, Organic, etc and explaining just what those are. At The Walrus Room they work closely with local businesses to provide a delicious but not overbearing experience for their patrons.

If you are looking for a new place to try out for dinner, the Walrus Room is the place to be. While you are there, make sure to ask for a White Russian made with Freshground Roasting‘s Coffee Liquor found at Fox Valley Distillery.

The Walrus Room is open Tuesday- Thursday 4PM-10PM and Friday-Saturday 4PM-11PM.

What’s a cold fashioned, you say?

It's the perfect coffee-based mocktail for when you want something refreshing, a little sweet and slightly different. Perfect for a family-friendly picnic or summertime event. 

Cold Fashioned

6 oz Black Ice Brew cold brew concentrate
2 T grenadine
4 dashes angostura (orange) bitter
1 Maraschino cherry, for garnish
Orange peel, to garnish
Ice

Combine grenadine syrup and angostura bitters in a glass and pour in cold brew concentrate. Stir well to incorporate. Wipe the rim of the glass with the orange peel then drop in the glass. Add the ice and top with a cherry.

Enjoy!

There's some confusion between iced coffee, cold brew coffee and nitro cold brew. If you've never understood the differences, we're here to clear that up for you!

Brewing coffee for a crowd can be a challenge. How can I really show off that great new single origin microlot coffee for all of those people? Never fear - it's easier than you think.
