SATURDAY NOV 9 | 7PM - 10PM

Join us for another round of Crocuses & Cocktails: Seasonal Dinner Party on Elm Creek!

We're thrilled to welcome back Chef Nathan Sheasby to our fall dinner party, where he’ll delight us with an exquisite five-star, five-course menu featuring a charming Italian presentation. Chef Nate has journeyed far to master diverse flavors while savoring the richness of local traditions. With a passion for blending techniques and hometown ingredients, he creates dishes that celebrate both exploration and deep-rooted connection. Get ready for an unforgettable culinary experience!

Returning to the craft bar, mixologist Jerron Johnson also known as The Cabinet, will be serving another round of hand-crafted cocktails, as well as a hand selection of wine pairings to warm your pallet. Jerron is known for his long-time contributions to the mixology scene in Downtown Abilene curating menus for well-known local favorites we've grown to love over the years!

To make the night even more unforgettable, Grain Theory Brewery will be joining the menu pairing with two favorites hand-selected by the chef.

Floral garnishes and tablescape design will be curated by Jill Crawford of Flower Boys - Home Studio.

Live music is to be determined.

The vision for this event is to create a vibrant space where passionate artisans can showcase their craft for those who appreciate the fine dining experience in Abilene through connection and celebration! We are so excited to share this experience with you!

The Venue

The Patio at Elm Creek is an intimate venue connected to The Cloisters in the heart of the Elmwood neighborhood. The outdoor patio is surrounded by majestic trees and offers a peaceful view of the creek. In the 1970s, it was a well-loved Greek restaurant where many locals recall carefree childhood days. Over the years, the indoor space has evolved, hosting a variety of local businesses. Today, it is also home to the Makers + Creators Marketplace, a lively destination with over 25 local small shops connected to the venue.
