You may have noticed that Mustard Seed Café, 562 N. Main St. Bluffton, now has a fence that encloses its patio areas. This is part of a state requirement in order to serve wine and beer in an outdoor setting. The fence also enhances the quaint vintage charm of the train depot location.
The café now offers light fare that goes nicely with the new wine and beer selections. “Red and White Slates” consist of cheese, breads, meats, olives or fresh fruit served on a tile, paired with red or white wine.
