⚡️ POWER RESTORED ⚡️

We're excited to share that our power was restored yesterday evening!

Since then, our team has been hard at work cataloging losses, deep cleaning, securing fresh product, and preparing the restaurant for service. As a scratch kitchen and bar, there's a lot that goes into getting everything ready after an interruption like this, and we're incredibly grateful for the effort our team has put in behind the scenes.

The good news: we'll be open today at 4:00 PM with our full menu, plus a few new kitchen specials.

Thank you to everyone who reached out, supported us, purchased gift cards, joined our wine club, and checked in on us during the outage. Your support means the world to our business and our staff.

We missed you, and we hope to see you this weekend.

🚨 Closure Update 🚨

Not the news we wanted to share, but The Wine Thief will be closed today, and we anticipate remaining closed beyond today while we wait for further information regarding the power coming back on.

We’ve received only limited updates so far, so we don’t yet have a firm timeline to share. We’ll continue posting updates if and when they become available.

To be candid, June and July are already some of the most challenging months of the year for independent restaurants in Frankfort due to the closure of Kansas Street. This unexpected setback makes an already difficult season even harder for our team.

If you’d like to support us while we’re unable to operate, please consider making a retail purchase through our website, buying tickets to a future event, purchasing a gift card for a future visit, joining our wine club, or showing some love to our sister restaurant, Cultivate. If you’re able, please also consider supporting our neighboring businesses that are going through this with us.

Every bit of support helps us weather this disruption, continue taking care of our staff, and come back stronger on the other side.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. We’ll keep you informed as we learn more.

Here’s what we’re pouring at tonight's tasting! 🍷

Our Duckhorn Portfolio Wine Tasting & Retail Sale is bringing together a seriously beautiful lineup from Greenwing, Duckhorn, Goldeneye, and Calera - from bright, easy-drinking whites to classic Napa Cabernet and Merlot.

Tasting is $10, and that tasting fee is fully redeemable toward any retail wine purchase during the event. Even better: Wine Club members taste for free and get exclusive access to sample Duckhorn “The Discussion.”

Come taste through the lineup, find your favorites, and stock up with special event-only retail pricing.

Today, June 10th
5:30–8PM

Taco & Tequila Tuesday is for the people who check the NOM. 🌮🥃

We brought in some new additive-free agave bottles, including a little Cascahuín lineup from NOM 1123.

Blanco. Reposado. Añejo.
You know what to do.

Every Tuesday, all neat pours of agave spirits are 20% off.

Tacos, tequila, and the good stuff behind the bar.

If you know, you know.

We're feeding our wild side this weekend. 🍝

This week’s special is a Wild Boar Ragu built around red wine-braised wild boar, San Marzano tomato, and linguine finished with clouds of whipped burrata and a hit of charred scallion oil.

It’s rich, rustic, and just wild enough to make your usual pasta order feel underdressed.

Available while supplies last.

Bring someone who appreciates a good bowl of trouble.

If you loved our Wine Gala… this is your next one. 🥃✨

The 2nd Annual TWT Spirits Under the Stars is coming - and it’s easily our most unique night we put on all year.

It has the same spirit of discovery and education as the Gala…
just with a little more edge, more energy, and a much louder soundtrack.

Think:
🥃 Old Fashioned station
🍸 Cocktail classes
🔥 Master distillers
🥃 Bourbon tastings
🌵 Additive-free tequila tastings
🌎 Whiskeys from around the world
🍹 Rum tastings
🍢 Passed bites
🔪 Carving station
🎶 Live music
🥂 Unlimited tastings
🌙 All-inclusive experience
✨ Exclusive VIP experience

This is where learning about world-class spirits and cocktails actually feels like a night out.

Curious, polished, a little dangerous - in the best way.
