Rumours Wine Bar was brought to life from a vision that began back in 2019 in our living room. Dana had recently resigned from her Wine Sales position and wasn’t sure what she wanted to do next. She had always dreamed of opening her own Wine bar so we created our logo, our name, and our brand and simply followed our heart. We opened as a retail store in January 2020 and pivoted when the Pandemic started by creating an online store and offering curbside pick-up and delivery. In September 2020, we passed our final inspections and received our beer and wine license for “on-premise” consumption as well as a restaurant license. We have not slowed down since. We have won numerous awards from our local community including 2022 and 2023 "Best Local Cheers Bar." Our mission at Rumours Wine Bar is to simply embrace intellectual stimulation linked to wine in a relaxed and friendly environment.

    This was our fourth or fifth visit to L’Olive. We have found it to be consistently excellent. The staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcome. They are friendly, efficient and polite. I can recommend the octopus salad and lentil soup appetizers, the lamb chops, Branzino and the steak au poivre are excellent main courses.

    Food and service was great as usual. We’ve dined there many times, but the one thing I’ve learned about this place, is to bring a sweater. It’s always like a meat locker in there. Perhaps comfortable for the wait staff, but uncomfortable for most diners.
