It was cleverly created to ensure that guests are encouraged to
order “in the moment”, this way, it’s their current state of mind
that will guide the decision. GreenRiver’s valuable cocktail menu
features eight sections organised by the raw materials used for
distilling spirits, and complemented by an approachable wine
list and twelve beers on tap, primarily from Chicago breweries.
Our suggestions fall upon the delicious Epiphany which contains
rum, Liquore Strega, Falernum, Branca Menta, Pineapple,
Turmeric, Lime, or the Mahajara cocktail which highlights a de-
lightful combination of Sipsmith Gin, Amaro Montenegro, Royal
Combier, Combier Rose Liqueur, Orgeat, Falernum, Cardamom,
Chocolate, Lemon, and Teapot Bitters. As a whole, GreenRiv-
er offers a wide variety of possibilities, certifying that no guest
leaves the premises disappointed or thirsty, and providing each
guest with a deep and personal connection.
From its inception in September 2015, GreenRiver has already
received one Michelin star, three stars from the Chicago Tribune,
four stars from Crain’s Chicago Business. It was also named by
Playboy magazine as one of the “Best New Bars of 2016.”
