THE PINECONE COTTAGE
DOWNERS GROVE–The Pinecone Cottage Tea House name came from the original 1905 golf cottage near one of the Chicago suburbs’ first golf courses. The cottage is surrounded with towering pine trees, which pepper the ground with pinecones. Since 1990, it has been home to the Geralds and their extensive garden whose produce enlivens the Tea House menu.
