Natural wine, stirred drinks and small plates on Water Street. Open tonight 4-11, kitchen until 10:30.
Twelve tables, sixteen stools and a list of wines we drink ourselves. Come early for the light and stay for the second glass.
The menu
Sable Hour opened in 2014 in an old ship chandlery on Water Street. Ines and Theo Marr run the floor and the kitchen, buy every bottle themselves and keep the lights low and the music lower.

Twelve tables along the long windows, lit low as the light goes.
Sixteen stools at the long bar, always kept for walk-ins.
Low Light Thursdays: a guest winemaker pours and the lamps go down.
The kitchen
Theo cooks on two burners and a wood grill. The menu stays short so everything on it is good, and it changes when the farm stand does.
See the menuTell us the night and how many are coming. We reply within a day with what's open.
Shared plates from $55 a guest or the chef's tasting at $85, with wine pairings if you like.
Up to 24 seated, candles, printed menus and a playlist you're welcome to veto.
The room is yours for the night. One bill at the end, split however you need.
We came in for one glass before dinner and never left. The trout, the cold Gamay, the light through that window. Best night of the trip.
The bartender asked what we liked and made something that wasn't on the list. Perfect.

We booked the back room for my mother's 70th. They handled everything, down to the candles.

Amber wines from the Columbia Gorge and the Loire open up a few degrees above fridge-cold. This month's flight, and how we serve it.
Bar
Two years, nine ryes and one argument about orange peel. The version we pour now, and why it is stirred for 40 seconds.
