About The More the Merroir

The Seafood Dude hosts a weekly Thursday pop-up at Cape Bottle Room through October 22, shucking Texas oysters alongside caviar and conservas. Happy hour runs 4-8pm with Graham Beck bubbles and wine by the glass.

At Cape Bottle Room

A South Africa. Focused wine bar built entirely around bottles you rarely see on Texas shelves, from Pinotage to Chenin Blanc and a rotating cast of regional pours. Tasting flights are the easiest entry point, often paired with cheese and biltong for a low-key afternoon that still feels intentional. The list shifts seasonally, giving regulars a steady reason to come back and re-explore.
