Belly Bar is Back

Belly Bar, in Kendall Square, has been closed for more than a year, after a fire caused smoke and water damage.  I was so excited when they announced that they would be reopening.  JO and I made a point to set aside a weekend night to go and enjoy the bar.

Belly Bar is a great wine bar.  You can get small pours and sample lots of different wines, or larger pours and stick to tried and true favorites.  All of the wines are also available at Central Bottle so if you find something you like it's easy to find more of it.  They also have lots of great snacking items, like salami, cheese, and olives.  They did a great job renovating and fixing up the space after all of the damage they suffered.  They kept the decor the way it was-  a beautiful mix of modern and rustic.  The lighting is soft and they have a patio for warmer nights.   They change up their wine menu every few weeks so you never know what they will be serving.  We spent the night sampling various champagnes and proseccos, which was totally a win for me.

So glad this place is back in the rotation!
