This weekend at Bellwether, a new pairing...
Our special this weekend is a Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich with a rich layer of charred scallion and black garlic aioli, finished with tomato, onion, and spinach. It is savory and layered in all the right ways.
Even better alongside a cocktail from our NOVEL menu, where every drink is inspired by a story and built to unfold slowly.
Bring a little island energy to your day with this week's Dog of T-Town.
Meet the Caribbean Dog, a bacon-wrapped, jerk-seasoned all-beef hot dog topped with roasted pineapple salsa, red onion, and our house GBQ (East Side Gin BBQ sauce).
It is smoky, sweet, and a little spicy. Every element hits, from the bite of the dog to the brightness of the pineapple and the depth of that gin-laced BBQ.

Some stories stay with you. Others are worth a re-read.
Meet Gravewind, a bold, windswept cocktail from our NOVEL menu, created in partnership with the @toledolibrary . Inspired by Wuthering Heights, this drink brings together barrel-aged East Side Gin, blackberry, mint, lemon, and ginger beer for a layered, expressive pour that shifts with every sip.
Bright at first, then deeper, a little wilder, and impossible to forget.

We've got a @killtonyshow Golden Ticket winner coming to downtown Toledo! On Saturday June 27 we will have a mystery guest headlining at Toledo Spirits Company.

Before there was Toledo, there was Vistula.
Established in 1833 along the banks of the Maumee River, the Vistula Historic District became the foundation for the city we know today. Merchants, makers, artists, and entrepreneurs helped shape Toledo’s future from these very streets nearly 200 years ago.
The Vistula Artist Market was created to honor that history — celebrating local craftsmanship, creativity, small businesses, and community in Toledo’s oldest neighborhood.
Join us on May 24th from 11 AM – 4 PM at Toledo Spirits Company for a day filled with local artists, handcrafted goods, live music, food trucks, cocktails, glass blowing demonstrations, free kids activities, and more as we continue the legacy of Vistula together. ✨
