The new eatery located at 111 Neil’s Alley in Historic Lewes, Delaware is Nectar. It is a Cafe & Juice Bar. Its friendly and charming owner is Sarah McKeown. And, Jody, Sue, and I found her very busy on a rainy day at the Delaware Beaches.
Nectar opens at 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. every day of the week. Tel. 302-645-5842. Email nectar302@gmail.com.
My first impression of Nectar was that I had a feeling of warmth. The restaurant embraces you as you step in. Like a hug…you know what I mean. The lighting is perfect; not too bright and not dim either. It flows very well.
The juice bar has plenty of seating at the bar and by the window. You can choose one of their specialty juices or be adventurous and develop your own signature juice.
There is an open living room, where you can relax, sip your drinks, or wait for your party to join you.
Plenty of tables have been arranged in the main dining room. Every chair is different. The plates on the wall are all beautiful. A lot of thought has gone into the decorating of Nectar. It shows as the restaurant has his own unique aura.
I wanted to try one of their juices. Afterall, it is also a juice bar. I chose the Lean Green Machine. It had green apple, cucumber, basil, spinach, lime, and jalapeno. Boost your metabolism with this fat-fighting tonic…..and those jalapenos were definitely doing a dance with my taste buds. Very good!
Nectar accommodates everyone. Breakfast is served all day, soups, salads, deli salads, sandwiches and dessert. We had made our choices.
We ordered 2 soups; a Carrot & Ginger Soup (left photo), and a Tomato Soup (right). Jody loved hers and my Tomato Soup was excellent. Well seasoned; tasty and just so you know, this soup is also served at Nectar with a grilled cheese sandwich…you can dunk.
Sue ordered the blueberry pancakes. They were fluffy topped with homemade blueberry maple syrup. The pancakes were crusty on the outside and soft inside. Also available gluten-free!! Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that the servings are very generous.
Jody went with the Quinoa Salad. That powerful grain is very versatile and was mixed with cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion and feta cheese on a bed of mixed greens and balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
My Salmon Citrus Salad was awesome! Pan seared salmon fillet served over butter lettuce, capers, fennel, grapefruit and orange slices with a citrus vinaigrette.
We were perfectly content, so no dessert was ordered. They do have lemon and mixed berry tart, strawberry shortcake, carrot cake, vegan chocolate avocado torde and the daily flavor ice cream.
Note: Nectar also serves Mimosas, Bloody Mary’s made with Gluten Free Tito’s Vodka, Beer & Wine!!
We wish Nectar the best for Summer of 2013!!
