Our guests can choose from an open bar, a partial open bar, and a cash bar. The room charge varies based on type of event and day of the week, and is often waived completely. Parking is available on sight with a temporary parking permit.Interested in something different? The Blue Cat offers private wine tastings in addition to those we do monthly for the public. These are a great way to reward employees, break the ice with a new group of friends, or just have a good time. You can view a sample tasting menu in our Wine Tastings page. For these you can have as much or as limited involvement as you wish; our kitchen can serve your favorite dishes with your favorite wines or come up with exciting new dishes for you to try. We have access to the freshest seafood as well as exotic meats, great local cheeses and baked goods, and a plethora of delicacies from around the world. These are also a great opportunity to learn about wine while relaxing in the comfort of Blue Cats candlelit dining room.Please call us with any specific questions at (802) 363-3639 or email www.bluecatcafewinebar_yahoo.com

Wine Tastings

Our wine tastings occur once a month on the second Tuesday and are a great way to learn a little bit, try some great wines paired with inspired dishes, and to connect with the Blue Cat community. The wine tastings always start at 7pm and feature a number of food and wine courses (usually six with some variation). The tastings are led by Blue Cats own Mariasha and Ozzy Giral or other experts who have more knowledge of that months theme, and other local chefs sometimes step in to attempt the daunting and exciting task of wine pairing. The tastings cost $45; yes, its a good deal! Its an opportunity for us to develop relationships with our customers and have a little fun. Please join us if you can.
