welcome to note...
UPDATE: 8/22/24
Summer is winding down, the air feels a little cooler (I am totally fine with this!) After a very busy summer we are soon going to be on vacation!! WE WILL BE CLOSED SUNDAY SEPT. 1 THROUGH TUESDAY SEPT. 10. We will reopen on WEDS, SEPT. 11. If you want to get your brunch in, this Sunday is the day!!
***Saturday, June 15 we were closed as several of us had tickets to see Stevie Nicks concert in Hershey, as you may know it has been rescheduled for Sept. 28!!***
We have had some lovely weather for our outdoor dining, and also some unpredictable rain, so as far as reservations go, we reserve inside and if you decide that you prefer outside once you are here, not a problem! In the stifling heat, we will likely forgo outdoor seating. If you are hoping to dine with your canine companions, just let me know when you are making the reservation. We still encourage you to make reservations early for your dates, your double dates and little celebrations and we will do our best to accommodate!! We do always try to some leave a little wiggle room for our last minute diners and local neighbors who want to pop in, or call ahead to check availability. Our bar is full service and first come first serve, if you are closeby and call ahead we will do our best to save spots! Depending on what we have on for reservations, sometimes we can reserve the bar, sometimes we cannot! For larger gatherings (6-9 ppl) we are only able to accommodate at 5-5:30 pm, based on the size of our kitchen we find it difficult to host larger parties in the midst of service. For parties 10 and up, we will have to make special arrangements as we find our intimate dining room is not suited for these sorts of gatherings, so we appreciate your understanding!
***We are open for dinner Wednesday - Saturday and we seat tables from 4:30-8:00 and Sunday Brunch 10:30-2:00
Reservations are made through email (Ruth@notewinebar.com) I check in frequently during the day and do my best to respond in a timely manner, if you do NOT receive a reply with a confirmation please follow up, occasionally one will slip past me! If you are looking for same day reservations and it's getting late in the day we recommend you call into the restaurant as I may no longer be checking my email.
UPCOMING EVENTS & HOLIDAYS...
Our new mural is DONE and looks amazing, thank you to the wonderful Miss Alison from Switchboard Studios & Gallery for her amazing work!!
Please visit the website frequently for my updates, we have been scheduling some holidays and vacations (much earned!) and this is the best way to stay informed!!
As far as the menu, we will continue with our summer salads and entrees long as the tomatoes are that delicious summer kind, and the summer corn is sweet, but we will soon be thinking of fall flavors!! Chef Stevie has been offering some really nice specials throughout the week and weekend, but sometimes things sell out since we are small and order accordingly. Rest assured if you miss out, something good will take its place! Please note the many Gluten-Free options, but please also alert us with any and all allergies!! We make changes to our menu several times a week, and I do try to keep the online menu current, but there may be a difference or two with the current evening's menu! This goes for wine as well, I make changes to the wine list almost weekly. We love to try new wines and share them with you!!
"Aperitivo Happy Hour Menu" features $9 house cocktails & select wines, as well as daily small plate offerings during Happy Hour, which will be from 4:30-5:30 Weds through Sat. You may be seated anywhere to enjoy the specials, but orders must be in by 5:30!!
Thank you ALL for your continued patronage!! Ruth & Staff
Thank you for your continued support~Ruth
