The Wine Bar adds another dimension to The Griswold Inn, providing patrons with an alternative dining experience and yet another way to enjoy The 'Gris'.  It is comfortable, classic and sophisticated and features a stunning maritime art collection. Generous use of mahogany and other "nautically-flavored" details create an extraordinary space in which to enjoy a delicious experience.  Along with over 50 wines by the glass, the Wine Bar offers a small plate menu designed for sharing; a martini menu; an extensive selection of wine flights; macro plates - larger entree portions; artisanal cheeses; unique desserts and specialty coffee drinks.  Full bar service is also available.
