Booze & Bites Book Club

Looking for something different to do in Cuba, Missouri? We’re excited to introduce a brand-new event at Cherry Rose Hall that brings together great food, creative cocktails, and great conversation.

Booze & Bites Book Club is a social book club experience designed for people who love books—but also love a fun night out.

Instead of a traditional book club, guests choose one (or more!) of three featured books to read before the event. On the night of the event, they’ll sit with other readers who chose the same book to discuss it while enjoying a buffet of shareable bites and themed cocktails.

It’s relaxed, social, and the perfect excuse to gather with friends or meet fellow readers in the community.

Featured Books

For our first Booze & Bites Book Club, guests can choose from three popular titles:

  • The Silent Patient – a psychological thriller known for its unforgettable twist.

  • The Guest List – a glamorous destination wedding celebration that turns deadly.

  • The Fiancé Dilemma – a charming romantic comedy centered around a fake engagement.

Each book will have its own discussion table so guests can dive into conversation with others who read the same story.

The Menu: Literary Night Bites

Your ticket includes access to our Literary Night Bites buffet, featuring a variety of shareable favorites perfect for a relaxed evening of food and conversation.

Menu items include:

  • Flatbread pizzas (cut into squares)

  • Charcuterie skewers

  • Caprese salad skewers

  • Spinach artichoke dip

  • Meatballs

Dessert:

  • Mini brownies

  • Cheesecake bites

We’re also serving a few special drinks inspired by the night’s featured books.

The Silent Treatment
Vodka, Sprite, Blue Curaçao

The Wedding Toast
