Table Bar

Table Bar Table Bar is a natural wine bar, restaurant, and bottle shop in downtown Gardiner Maine.

Table Bar is a neighborhood wine bar, restaurant, and bottle shop in Gardiner, Maine. We focus primarily on traditionally made wines, produced using a low-intervention, time-honored approach highlighting the natural features of the grapes, land, and culture behind them. We also carry beer, sake, and cider from our favorite producers from near and far. Our selections range from esoteric, rare, and

wild to classic and refined. While we offer several price points, the shop is stocked with affordability, approachability, and conviviality in mind. We think eating and drinking are fun and the good stuff should be served whenever you want. We serve a locally sourced, seasonal menu of bar snacks, shared plates, and entrées driven by the area's abundance of small farms and fresh seafood. Our menu changes slightly each week and offers tributes to the classic, simple fare of European cafés and wine bars. Table Bar is an intimate space for a range of music, art, and literary events, as well as private parties. We also regularly host pop-ups to feature new and creative food ventures from area chefs working to launch their own businesses.

🚨Surprise Sunday Service🚨

is playing tonight. I figured I’d score some brownie points with my mother in law by opening for her and friends, but I’m not stopping there. I’m turning this one into a party. I’m throwing an impromptu industry night!!!

Come on down and have a shot of my Lilac infused tequila and a corona for just $10!!! I’ll sweeten the deal, by giving you half off your first drink, if you work in the hospitality industry. That means you can walk in slap down an Abe Lincoln get a shot, a beer and bounce with a baddie. What have you got to lose?

Share this your friends!! They’re going to want to come. We open at 4, we got food, drinks and good times!!!

I love to joke that I sustainably source the oysters every week in my Prius, but with gas at nearly $5 a gallon, nothing feels sustainable.

Today as I drove to pick up our weekly order of , I started the journey listening to a riveting version of Dostoevsky’s Devils read by audiobook legend George Guidall.

As often happens, I lost service shortly after banging a right past one of the architectural wonders of the world, the Damarscottia McDonald’s.

Luckily I was able to catch the second half of Edvard Grieg’s: In the Hall of the Mountain King from the play Peer Gynt on . Mysteriously by the time the song was hitting its climax the JBL’s in the Prius had turned up to 11. I realized it might be time for me to stop and look at the lupines.

This all to say it’s getting harder and harder out here. Take care of yourself and your people. Please support local businesses, read more books and for the love of all things great please, please vote these fascists out of office.

and I like to joke that sometimes things happen so serendipitously that it feels like we live in a computer simulation. Not all the time! Sometimes things go real wrong, but when they’re right, it can seem almost unbelievably harmonious. exemplifies that as much as anyone.

I will never forget when I asked Nate if he would have any interest in playing records at the bar; he played it real cool and said “I’ve never DJ’d, but my friends say I make great playlists.” He then concreted himself in Table Bar Legend when a few days later he texted to say he landed on a DJ name: “Nate the Crate.”

It’s hard to imagine a calmer person in a kitchen. The first time he filled in for Matt, we of course had the busiest night we had in months. Bonkers busy. He never broke a sweat and when I told him how impressed I was, he said it was all Matt.

I guess the trick to staying that humble is staying hungry, cause I’ve never seen him eat or drink. Don’t get it twisted, the boy can cook. told me Nate’s Completo was the best he’d ever had outside Chile.

Please join us this week in showering Nate with all the love he deserves. For this is sadly his last week… for a while. We love you, Nate!! As Willow once said “you are great!!”
