Weekend Reservations

Sat, 11/29/2008 - 12:45pm — The Wine Guy

Yes, we're serving dinner tonight at Back Bay Cafe. It's the last weekend of the November menu. And remember you get 10% off if you call us for a reservation - 252.944.2870. Or stop by for lunch today (Saturday), served from 11:30 until 5:00 or Sunday brunch from 11:30 - 3:00. We're getting into the holiday spirit, and we'd be glad to see you.

And did I mention our gift selection? At both stores? Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be putting together various Gift Guides to tantalize you with some our items, but in the meantime, come by for the best selection.

Holiday Cookies

Wed, 11/19/2008 - 6:55pm — The Wine Guy

Hurry — Going Fast!

If you're in Belhaven today, Chef Yvonne just baked a batch of her deelicious holiday cookies (with pecans, apricots and dried cherries). 2 cookies for $1. My diet won't let me partake (though I did taste one last night), so I'll leave you plenty.

We email a brief monthly newsletter to our customers to tell them about our changing menus at the Back Bay Cafe and Featured Wines of the Month. Occasionally we may also alert you to other periodic specials, but we NEVER send you spam or sell or share our email list with anyone.

New New Web Site

Shelter from the storm

Fri, 11/14/2008 - 10:24am — The Wine Guy

It's a yucky, rainy day here in Eastern NC, but the leaves are sure pretty. And we've got the lights on at the Wine & Words stores. Stop by Wine & Words...& Gourmet in Washington and get a cup of Counter Culture coffee and a Back Bay Cafe sandwich, browse the growing selection of books and CD's, and generally take shelter from the storm. If you're in Belhaven, come by Back Bay Cafe, where the Maple Sweet Potato Soup is just the ticket on a day like this. You'll probably meet some ICW transiters who are hunkering down before continuing south. And you'll see how international we've become.
