Wine Adventures with the 2 Dollar Wine Connoisseurs: The Side Door Wine Bar in Mammoth Lakes

We were in Mammoth Lakes for the Thanksgiving weekend and stopped by a cool little wine bar at the area known as The Village.

Wine , Crepes, Paninis, and Fondue are featured at the coolest little wine bar called Side Door Cafe in Mammoth Lakes, CA.  We had stopped the night before for a Christmas Tree lighting with the kids and sat for a few minutes on the outdoor patio area --while the kids had kettle corn.   We knew we had to come back again the next night and check the place out.

We had a nice reasonably priced bottle of Russian River Valley Chardonnay called Pech Merle which was a very good, smooth Chardonnay typical of the Russian River Valley region. We enjoyed some great Swiss Gruyere Cheese Fondue and followed that up with a tasty S'mores Crepe!

The bar itself had a cool jazz/retro feel and was a great place to relax and get out of the cold.  This place is not only a wine bar/ but has a full cocktail menu as well, and in the mornings fronts as a coffee house (which is ideal for a snowy mountain resort).

Here is their website.....If you make it up to the mountains be sure to drop in.

The village is a really cool area that features lodging, shopping and restaurants.  They have fun outdoor games and fire pits that really brings an Aspen like feel to Mammoth Lakes.
