Bald Headed Bistro is serving up the tastes of spring, offering recipes with fresh produce and a patio open for diners to enjoy nice weather, music on Wednesday nights, happy hour specials and entrées only available at the bar.
“Chef’s got stuff in his garden and I’m growing stuff in my garden for here and we are going to try to put an herb garden out in front of the restaurant,” says Josh Weekley, general manager. “We usually hit the local farmers market and we use the local produce for our weekend specials, special recipes or the chef’s appetizer and chef’s side.”
This spring, guests often decide to dine on Bald Headed Bistro’s covered patio. There is a specialty menu just for those eating in the bar and patio areas who want bar-style dishes such as steak nachos or the rotisserie roasted beef Philly. Patio and bar guests can also order from the regular menu or the small plates menu that features half orders of the restaurant’s favorites like cedar-planked salmon, gremolata- crusted Chilean sea bass and steak Oscar.
Every Wednesday on the restaurant’s patio, Joe Joe Collins performs acoustic sets starting at 6 p.m. and ending at around 10 p.m. A small stage near the patio provides plenty of room for diners as well as performers.
“He’s great and has a strong fan base,” says Craig Duggard, assistant manager of catering and events. “He plays by himself with some country, older rock and a good variety of rock.”
