👋 Megan here.The Board Couple is a great place to host an event for your next work or club meeting.
The vibe: The small space on the West Side manages to feel laid-back while offering a classy menu to elevate any meetup.
There's table seating as well as a couch and chairs. Refrigerators hold plentiful takeaway items for those looking to leave with a bottle of wine and all the fixins for a cozy night in.
Plus: You can order fancy charcuterie boards anytime for a special occasion or someone.
How it works: Regular pick-up and shopping hours are 10am-2pm Monday through Saturday, but the space is available to book for events outside of those hours. My book club has picked this spot twice, and the owners were accommodating and kind.
Just give them a call or send a message online if you want to book it.
What to try: I ordered a glass of chardonnay ($12) and a pear melt ($12.50).
Six word review: Crisp wine, melty cheese over nuts.
