Book this for your next meeting with Jasper Morris, Anne Krebiehl and Peter Liem lol A very well researched selection, from Meursault villages to the most coveted 1ers & Grands Crus in white and red: Puligny, St. Aubin, Volnay, Pommard, Vosne-Romanee, Gevrey Chambertin, ... Lafarge, Hubert Lamy, Leflaive, Mugneret-Gibourg, Some excellent lower yield & early accessible vintages like the 2019. Not many bottles are older than 10 years, but a number of suppliers provide pretty much the rarest new stuff available in the region. Cold cuts, sardines and cheese served, the place is full of young young, smiling people listening to unobtrusive music. Make sure you find the stairs from the street level to get here. Oh, and they have Les Robarts by Suenen. I had to visit four wine stores in Champagne to get two bottles of that. Good luck finding that anywhere else.

We were greeted by a group of bartenders (who all happened to be wearing toques) when we walked in, and I felt both welcomed and slightly out of place (no toque). The cocktails were meticulously crafted--priced at $15-20 a drink, it's on par with bigger cities like Vancouver and Toronto, but they also live up to the standard. Honestly, the highlight of our visit to Missy's was the Missy's This That charcuterie board. Each piece of cured meat was sliced impossibly thin, the olives were meaty and delicious, and the cheeses were carefully selected to complement everything. I loved that it also came with a side of thick cut bread and pickled vegetables. One of the best charcuterie boards I've had at a restaurant for sure. Not cheap but worth the pretty penny on a slightly fancy night out.

You can try one of their concoctions or order off menu but at $13 a pop, choose wisely. If you're a beer drinker, this place isn't for you. $10 for a $3 beer makes an unhappy camper. Truthfully, The loud music was a turn off. I was expecting a quiet place to sit and talk with friends not sit and listen to loud music while shouting.

The music sets the tone, the crowd is clearly there to have a good time, and the drinks are creative and whimsical. The décor is spot on, and the moody atmosphere really makes you feel like you have stepped back into the 1920s. Our server was attentive and friendly throughout the night. We ordered four drinks, and each one came out with its own playful presentation that matched the cocktail perfectly. We asked to substitute the alcohol in one drink, and it ended up being especially enjoyable and festive for the holiday season. One standout moment was when a drink arrived in a gas pump and the server actually squeezed the handle to pour it into my glass tableside. It was such a fun and unexpected touch. They also offer live music, though unfortunately we were not there on a night with a performance. That just gives me another reason to come back. Overall, this is absolutely worth checking out for the experience alone.

We unfortunately got seated in the side room, not as good for people and kitchen watching but a nice room nonetheless. It was a busy Friday evening but service was a bit slow to start. We got water and our candle lit long before a cocktail menu. We'd ordered about five items, some shareable and two intended as mains, however they came in series with a bit of wait between them. I was with my wife so we shared everything but otherwise it may have been awkward. Drink menu is good, including several margaritas. My standard version was delicious and the second one was just as good! The food was really good. We had scallops, tuna, and prawns; all really good but the Tuna Tostada always amazing. Caesar salad was good but somewhat untraditional with pickled onion. The menu marks gluten free and dairy free, lots of gf options. Lots of menu items I'd like to try, will definitely be back.

The menu mainly had about three options of BBQ flavored meat. There was also Steak sandwich, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Soup, Salad and Sandwich options. I went for the Soup and Sandwich. The meal was okay, nothing spectacular. The Bar is a small local bar, the town is not very big so there was about five or so people sitting at the bar. The local town people who were at the bar were friendly and we joked around a little with them before we left. The service was slow considering how many people were in the bar but she was friendly. The T.V. was grainy and not very clear. The bathroom was clean, one private bathroom for each sex. There is not many options of places to eat in Nanton, the Bar was okay considering the size of the town but I will try another place if I am coming through Nanton again.
