Garten Eden Industrial

An old, dusty canteen at the Stollwerck chocolate headquarters has been transformed into an urban location with over 800 square metres of event space and a beer garden for up to 150 people in 1.5 years of conversion and renovation. Our cloakrooms used to be changing room lockers, the wine bar was a workbench and an old shelf is used to present gifts at weddings or anniversaries. The old industrial lamps have been converted to dimmable LEDs. Whether steel cabinets, typewriters, fans or the many chocolate tins, everything has found its place and its function in our home. Most recently, we built a fireplace in the beer garden from the 100kg concrete pillars that used to support the washbasins in the changing rooms.

The fact that we have consistently pursued our principles of sustainability, high quality standards and regionality in our cuisine for years is an absolute prerequisite for us. We have our own hunter for the game season, our butcher is the organic butcher Jansen from Porz and our ice cream also comes from Casa Vecchio in the neighbourhood. Our schnapps comes from an old distillery in Rösrath, the trout from the Bergisch region.

We have also been cooking vegan food as a matter of course for many years. We ferment the seasonal fruit and vegetables and thus have our ingredients for the unmistakable Garden of Eden twist even in the colder months. In the Garden of Eden Industrial, we make the best out of the basics.
