HAPPY "SEAFOOD" NEW YEAR!
Good Morning!
Excitement mounts as we get ready to put 2020 behind us and
although the road ahead will not be easy, we are feeling some
optimism about better days ahead and returning to more "normal"
days in the months ahead. That being said it's going to be a long winter!
We are so grateful for the support we have received from our loyal customers
and know that you helped us get through a very difficult year in our business.
Thank You from the bottom of our hearts!
While celebrating Christmas and New Year's in Maine, we have been discussing the best
course forward in 2021 as things are still very uncertain and the Fabulous Finger Lakes are
slow even in good times. To that extent, we've decided that the Black Cat Bistro will be
moving in a new direction for January, February and March. We will reassess at that point.
We will be open Thursday/Friday 12-5 and Saturday/Sunday 9-3 for store purchases, beverages
and baked goods only. With the success of our Seafood Specials over the summer and fall, we've
decided to do a ToGo option over the next few months. We do not feel that reopening the indoor dining
makes any sense at this point. We'll be in Maine each month, so why not
go with a winner? This will be a "Once a Month Pre-Order" situation. Our offerings will be packaged to
bake or reheat at home. Some will be picked up frozen with directions for cooking, so you won't have to
necessarily consume them immediately, but you can only Pre-Order Once Per Month :-)
Our First PRE-ORDER WINDOW is Today, December 31st- Sunday, January 3rd
PICK UP Friday or Saturday, January 8th & 9th

Lobster Chowder (Yum!)
Brian got rave reviews when this was on the menu in the fall.

Served with rolls. Simple, delicious...as we like to say "less is more"!

Black Cat Chili
Nothing better on a wintry day! Brian is the king of chili...or so many
customers say :-) Local, grass fed beef, pork, 3 beans, tomatoes, onions,
peppers and the perfect spice...super savory, but not too hot. Served with
house made corn muffins. (This selection is picked up ready to reheat or can be frozen)
16oz (2 servings) $20
32oz (4 servings) $35
"Bites" Lobster or Crab
A favorite year round! Normally, we serve "2" with a side.
Cheesy, crispy deliciousness! Great as an appetizer or meal.
On this menu, there will be 4 in a box, frozen. Bake what you need.
Baking directions will be included.
(4) Crab Bites $20
(4) Lobster Bites $28
(2) Crab & (2) Lobster $25
NEED WINE? The pandemic isn't over yet...lol
We are featuring a lovely CAVA from Spain. Fermented in the bottle
just like champagne. It's great with seafood and nothing says
Happy New Year like bubbles. A great deal on a great bottle!
