By high request, we’re back! Join Cool Beans for a Sunday lunch that feels like home away from home. Celebrating great food and community. ✨

This time with a Fall protagonist, the Queen Pumpkin!

Across cultures, Sunday lunch is a shared ritual, a moment to slow down, gather, and reconnect. After the incredible response to our first lunch, Cool Beans Expat Club is bringing this series back, and this time, we’re making more room at the table.

To meet the high demand and allow more of our community to join, we will have a vibrant, buffet-style experience. While the group is growing, the mission remains the same: creating a "home away from home" for Chicago’s international crowd.

This is an intimate yet social experience designed to encourage the kind of long, meaningful conversations that don’t feel rushed. Whether you’re a familiar face or joining us for the first time, this is your space to feel welcomed and part of a community.

The event will take place in the Wicker Park area. The exact location will be disclosed 24 hours before the event to registered guests.

What’s on the Menu

This month menu, curated by Chef Domenico, features a comforting Pumpkin inspired, buffet-style Sunday lunch including:

Delicious appetizers
Pasta del Giorno
And more...

Vegetarian options can be provided. Please note dietary preferences during checkout. Final Menu will be published on Instagram in the upcoming week.
