Lot 12~February Happenings

Valentine’s Day, President’s Day Weekend &
a Water Tasting Festival!

So, we are officially back from our relaxing winter break…it was a great month! We hope you missed us. Our re-open date is Friday, February 6th! We’re unveiling our new Dinner Menu, a slight change to our hours of service and we’re very excited about all of the activities in our small town this month.

Once you take a peek at our new menu, you’ll see we’ve been inspired by our Southern food allegiance. It was reinvigorated after we toured through the South in January and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves trying every BBQ stand and Southern food menu item we could order. We’ll be introducing “Southern Sundays” late February, (check in on FaceBook for updates). You can expect to see a variety of “bistro” style Sunday dinner specials…Veal Meatloaf, Fried Quail and Waffles…who could resist. We couldn’t. And we hope you can’t either.

Our Hours of Service have shifted slightly. While we remain dinner only Thursday through Sunday, we will now be opening at 4pm on both Saturday and Sunday. This includes the the bar as well, so you can stop in for a snack or cocktail before dinner now too!

We’ll have a splendid 3-course dinner for all of the lovebirds on Valentine’s Day which also happens to fall on the very busy President’s Day Holiday Weekend. We’ll be offering the special menu on Sunday, February 15th as well (we are currently booked for the 14th!).

Later in the month our town of Berkeley Springs is all about water. Sparkling water, bottled water, municipal water, spring water…you can learn more here from the Travel Berkeley Springs website. We’ll be hosting a wine tasting this weekend so again, call soon as space is limited to about 30 guests. Friday, February 20th @ 6pm (upstairs!) we’ll be showcasing wines from South America.

We try not to overwhelm you with multiple newsletters or e-blasts each month. Nobody likes that, neither do we. BUT…if you’d like to hear from us more than once a month…we update regularly on FaceBook check us out here!

Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year so those tables filled up quickly! Friday, February 13th or Sunday, February 15th are certain to be popular as well, so please call soon! We’ll be offering a prix-fix 3-course dinner (Saturday & Sunday only), complete with chocolate covered strawberries and rose petals scattered about. You can enjoy a glass of sparkling wine or our own “Love Potion No. 12” to begin your evening, followed by appetizer, entree and dessert. Call us for reservations 304.258.6264!
The 25th Annual Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting Festival begins Thursday, February 19th and concludes Saturday, February 21st and is held at the Country Inn in downtown Berkeley Springs! Yes, a WATER TASTING festival…it’s the largest one in the world and host’s over 125 entries from all over the globe. Book a spa appointment or arrange to soak in our famed healing spring water baths at the Berkeley Springs State Park Bathhouse while you’re in town!
Have you been in for a wine tasting yet??
Join us on Friday, February 20th at 6pm, upstairs for a casual wine tasting where we’ll explore wines from South America. We’ll taste four wines that you won’t find at the grocer but wish you did once you taste them! Cost is $20 per person and includes light hors d’ouevres to compliment the flavors. Then join us for dinner and try out our new dinner menu! As always…call ahead, space is limited to the first 30 guests.
