Chi-cuterie - Geneva, Illinois

We held a baby shower for 15 people at Chi-cuterie and it was AMAZING! The staff could not have been more friendly and welcoming, the sparkling tea was fabulous, and the charcuterie was delicious. Everything about the experience was memorable and I can't recommend them enough. It was such a fun event and I am so glad we were able to host our event here!

This whimsical wine and cheese bar and a shop is located in the cutest old house that would not be out of place in The Black Forest. The decore is so lovely and inviting, you just want to order a bottle and a cheese board and linger a while with your friends. They have a lovely patio with live music on Saturday afternoons.

After being so impressed with a box from Chi-cuterie, I immediately decided I had to attend one of their classes, and I am SO glad that I did! Upon entering the gorgeous, historic home; I was greeted by the most amazing displays of all things to do with hosting; from charcuterie spread elements, to cocktail cart ideas and everything in between. Not only that, the most friendly and welcoming employees greeted me upon my arrival and ensured I had any questions answered within a very short time. I attended the workshop on board making and was provided with a handmade black walnut board, a number of cheeses, meats, fruits and sweet garnishments. The owner Michelle and one of her sweet employees gave us a crash course on all things to do with creating these beautiful spreads and I walked out of there with so much more knowledge about the entire art of board building than I could have imagined getting in 2 short hours! After the workshop ended, I couldn't help but shop around, and after asking for the Bloody Mary basket as a gift for my husband, Michelle and her team put their talent on show to create the most gorgeous, thoughtful, and perfect basket than I could have ever asked for! I walked out of there with my self-made charcuterie board, 2 new books on hosting, a beautiful basket, and a new favorite place in Geneva. They have found a customer for life. If you need a place to go to get away from the normal, everyday grind; pick Chi-cuterie. It is like heaven here on earth!

I had a wonderful time at Chi-cuterie!

Visited their website online and worked directly with owners Michelle and Robert over the phone and via email to book a bridal shower wine & cheese tasting for my cousin's fiancé. Contact was fast and easy. Michelle even reached out asking about the bride's favorites to make the experience all the more personable.

The event was all-inclusive and we got a private party room upstairs. It was such a relief to not have to worry about food, decorations, or anything. I was surprised by the quality of locally sourced fresh flowers, herbs, cheeses, and other goods presented to us. Michelle and Robert did a fantastic job spacing out each course to flow with the energy of our event and were knowledgeable about all of the goods they served us.

Dining is an experience; the pairings are excellent and well-balanced. Every course comes with a story of its origin and the small businesses that prepared it. My favorite course included driftless sheep cheese served in a chilled marble bowl topped with candied walnuts, and a dash of special salt. The cheese was paired with beautiful crackers that had edible flowers and herbs pressed into them alongside a peach ginger jam.

Downstairs is a shop for all things charcuterie and a dining space for visitors or larger parties and charcuterie classes. There's a patio outside for dining and events with live music. Events are hosted a couple of times a month and can be found on their website.

Overall I rate this experience 10/10.

I highly recommend Chi-cuterie for a date night, brunch with friends or family, or even just a quick trip to buy one of the pre-packed boards that they make daily. They also offer custom budget-friendly baskets if you are seeking a gift for a friend!

We hosted our daughter’s bridal shower at Chi-Cuterie and it was the most dreamy and perfect day! Michelle and her team curated a gorgeous spread of meats and cheeses which everybody loved and still talks about! The venue speaks for itself by its charming and elegant features. Not only did Michelle and her team do a great job, they made everything look picture perfect with the table scape. It was just so beautiful! We definitely will be coming back for other events!

My husband and I stopped in today for the first time. The shop is so cute and they were so accommodating. She offered to make us a board that was keto friendly so we could enjoy a snack and a glass of wine on the patio. Highly recommend!!! Everything was delicious!!
