Host a Couples Bridal Showers

The traditional bridal shower guest list consists only of women, but modern times have caught up with wedding planning. In order to include the groom in the shower festivities, people are now hosting couples’ bridal showers. Invite other couples, married or dating, to eat delicious food with you, play team games, and share relationship advice. Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen is the perfect place to do just that.

What We Serve

Located in the Lake Nona Town Center, our kitchen is serving a healthy and flavorful array of small plates. We encourage all our guests to share these plates among your table to create a sense of community. If you only have a few other couples joining you, reserve a table at lunch or dinner. The menu has everything from Five-Bite Salads to Three-Bite Sliders to small dessert plates.

Share our rustic Cheese Board, complete with crusty bread, preserves, almonds, and honey, while you chat about life or open gifts. Everyone can also order the cocktail or beverage of their choice, which includes our hand-crafted sodas, infused lemonade and iced teas, local draft beer, and extensive wine selection.

Make it an Event

If the bride wants to invite everyone they know, we have the space for that too! Our group dining spaces can hold up to 350 guests (when served reception style). Smaller parties of 20 to 40 guests may like the Chroma Outdoor Lounge. This exclusive space is cozy and quiet, with little disturbance from the main dining space.

Group parties have several ways they can customize the menu. The first is a duo plate menu, where guests select two entrees each. The second is what Chroma calls the Vertical Feast. For a set price per person, we will lay out a combination of hot and cold dishes and desserts on a buffet table. Guests will be able to pick from the table as they please, eating and catching up with friends simultaneously. We also have a Reception Menu, where special hors d’oeuvres are passed around the crowd butler-style.

Share Your Birthday Meal with Loved Ones

Did you know that birthdays originally started as a pagan tradition? Although many believe the gift of life was first celebrated by early century Christians, many of the customs we know today were considered magical practices. Specifically, birthday candles were meant to ward off evil spirits and guarantee good fortune for the next year.

Nowadays, we use birthdays as a means to bring together friends, family, and loved ones for a common purpose. This is also the philosophy behind Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen. We want to inspire community and friendship through food and small plates.

Birthday Meal

At Chroma, we encourage you to order several of our small plates and share them among each other. Birthdays bring people together, and what better way to do so than with a tasty meal. We have a wide selection of salads, meats, seafood, vegetables, and desserts that everyone can enjoy. Start with our House Charcuterie Board or Cheese Board as a light appetizer. Then, order hearty meat plates like the Baked House Meatballs with parmesan cheese and a San Marzano tomato sauce or the Fire Grilled Chicken Thighs with a special Sriracha sauce. Don’t forget to order the birthday guest a decadent dessert, such as the Butterscotch Bread Pudding, to finish the meal.

Order for a Small Group

If you want to simplify your order, consider one of our “For the Table” meals. These dishes are larger in quantity and are meant to be shared among four people. Choose our spicy Jambalaya with house-made Andouille sausage, seared shrimp, smoked pork for a taste of the American South. Or, you can go more upscale and order the 30-oz bone-in Flame Grilled Ribeye served with a sea salt crust, roasted garlic, and hand-cut fries. Each of these dishes will be more than enough for an intimate birthday gathering.

Carry the Party Home

For a quieter birthday celebration at home, consider ordering a few of our party platters. The trays feed up to 10 people, perfect for a small family barbecue or a relaxing evening with friends. One of our favorite platters is the Combo Platter Sliders, which comes with our Smoked Pulled Pork Sliders, Chroma Burgers, and Lamb Sliders. Just go on our website to view the full menu, and make sure to call in advance to place an order.

Whether you dine in with a few friends or host your party at home, Chroma wants to help you celebrate any birthday milestone with a shared meal. Our small plates are the perfect way to please all your guests and still honor the birthday boy/girl.

Celebrate Easter at Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen

A Group of Friends Sharing Food at an Outdoor Table

As the spring weather ushers in, gardens begin to grow, and ingredients become fresher. Food options start to feel lighter in our stomachs, but bolder in taste. This Easter Sunday, Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen wants you to have a taste of spring while sharing our small plates with your family and friends.

Why Small Plates?

Big Easter potlucks are traditional among many American families, and people enjoy cooking several dishes for their loved ones. Chroma also enjoys cooking and serving several dishes, but on a much smaller scale. The purpose of these small portions is that there is something for everyone to enjoy, but in a lighter way. You can indulge in an abundance of different dishes, while not getting too full!

Easter is a great holiday to try some of our favorite menu items like our three-bite Smoked Pulled Pork Sliders or our Guava and Goat Cheese Flatbread. We even do a modern take on a favorite Easter appetizer – Deviled Eggs, made with our house aioli, smoked paprika, and micro greens. Order as many as you like for the table and enjoy great conversations with your guests.

A Modern Atmosphere

Easter is one of the more traditional holidays, and we don’t really associate it with the word modern. But, it is never too late to try something new! Chroma is a vibrant and colorful space that fits in perfectly with the spring ambiance. We provide both an indoor setting for more intimate gatherings and an outdoor setting for guests to enjoy the fresh Florida air.

Drinks All Around!

Guests can also sit at our bar to enjoy a variety of drinks. Perhaps you are just having a quick meet up with friends on Easter Sunday? Order any of our refreshing cocktails or hand-crafted sodas while you relax and chat. Some of our favorites include the Seasonal Sangria (ask your waiter about current selections) or the non-alcoholic home-made Cuban Soda.

Chroma’s modern feel and small plates may not be a normal Easter Sunday, but our environment still encourages the community and family-friendly atmosphere of the holiday. Easter is just a short month away, so be sure to make your reservations soon, as tables can fill up fast.

Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen – Small Plates with Big Flavors!

The concept of shared small plates originated in Spain. While the story of how this concept came to be can be debated, many assume it began with a simple gesture. Bartenders in Spain used to cover their customer’s glasses with a piece of bread or ham to prevent bugs from flying into their drinks. Eventually this became quite popular, and people liked the idea of small bites with their drinks.

At Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen, we are serving a colorful menu of small plates along with craft bear, fine wine, and specialty cocktails designed to create a sense of community and family at each table. Even though our portions are small our flavors are bold and big! Our menu includes everything from Five-Bite Salads like the Tuscan Kale and Quinoa with a citrus vinaigrette to the Three Bite sliders like the special Chroma Burger with cheddar, bourbon onions and bacon jam.

The concept of small plates is meant to be shared among your friends and family. Order several different dishes to the table and have each person try each dish. This will get conversations flowing and the lighten up the atmosphere among both new and old acquaintances.

We also offer a variety of drinks to pair with your meal including our cleverly Hand-Crafted Sodas. These refreshing, bubbly drinks come in flavors like sour blueberry, ginger lime, and black cherry. We even have a homemade Cuban Soda made with mint, lime, and our simple syrup. For a more pungent drink, join us for our Happy Hour Monday through Friday from 3:30 pm to 6:30 pm. All of our seasonal cocktails and wines are $3 off, and draft beers are just $4!

Chroma’s sleek and modern dining atmosphere is also great for group events and intimate private dinners. Whether it’s a corporate event, rehearsal dinner, or birthday party, our staff will gladly help you plan the perfect function. Our space can accommodate anywhere from 20 to 350 guests, and all our group menus are customized to your liking.
