Good Walk Coffee Co.
I love all kinds of coffee, and I just got a new espresso maker, so I’ve been on the hunt for new beans to try. I’d followed Good Walk Coffee on social for a while and finally pulled the trigger. So happy I did.
Chicago Golf Company
Love golf, love pizza even more, and boy do I have a slice sometimes. The Chi Golf Slices tee was an easy pick, and the customer service won me over.
$34 to $70
Overview
Chicago Golf Company makes golf apparel for people who are obsessed with golf and even more obsessed with Chicago. Hats, tees, hoodies, quarter zips, a lot of it built around local courses and city spots. If you’ve played Jackson Park or Harborside, there’s probably a hat with your name on it.
Picking one thing was the hardest part. I went with the Chi Golf Slices T-Shirt, because golf and pizza is a combo I can get behind.
Unofficial bonus category: my son loves the pizza mascot. Every time.
I also messed up my size and had to start a return. I ended up talking to an actual human, and they made the whole thing easy. That’s a great sign of how a company runs things.

Golf Courses
Odyssey Golf Course
Went out right after a week of Illinois rain, which was my first mistake. Cart path only, mud everywhere, and I only got through 7 holes. Still a good course with a solid bar and some of the nicest people I’ve run into at a golf course.
Golf Apparel
Buff Bo Golf Clothing
My son loves spooky season, so the Buff Bo Trick or Tee was an easy pick. Great design, great fit, and it’s a golf shirt my wife loves too. Turns out golf apparel is a lot easier to buy when it’s not just for me.
Golf Courses
Wedgewood Golf Course
Fast rounds, a good bar, and a pro shop full of good people keep this in regular rotation. Just budget for non-resident rates and don’t expect tour-quality greens.

Golf Ball Marker Display
I’m a sucker for course memorabilia, and a ball marker is the easiest souvenir there is. My original display got discontinued on Etsy, so I hunted down a solid replacement. Holds both magnetic and poker chip markers, comes ready to hang, and you can personalize it.

Green Garden Country Club
Probably my favorite course in Chicagoland right now, and I only just found it. Kind of annoyed at myself honestly. I’ve lived in the south suburbs for almost five years and somehow missed this place the whole time.
