Just three miles north of Lewes, Kindle offers seasonal American fare year round in a warm, inviting atmosphere. Our bar & lounge—with its circular fireplace and towering copper hood—is the perfect place to gather with friends and enjoy one of our many wines by the glass. Our dining room can accommodate parties of all sizes. Book your next event in our second-floor banquet room that overlooks the lounge and dining room. And don’t forget to pick up a bottle of wine to go in our retail shop, the Kindle Pantry. Here you’ll find all the wines on the Kindle wine list as well as gourmet foods and gifts. Stop in for our daily free wine tasting.
A great glass of wine and a delicious handmade pizza. What could be a better meal? Nothing. Well, that's what we thought when we dreamed up Half Full - a place for friends to gather, eat, drink, and celebrate the good things in life. Then the opportunity arrived to take over a little retail space in historic downtown Lewes, Delaware, and we couldn't resist the challenge. Join us - from happy hour to the late-night hours - for pizza, wine or beer, maybe a sweet treat, and a brighter outlook. We may be small (who says size matters?), but it only gives us a better opportunity to handpick some really interesting wines and use all of our favorite ingredients.
There were times when we thought, "Is it possible to turn just 500 square feet into a restaurant?"
Being eternal optimists, we thought positively yes. Maybe it's because we live at the beach that our spirits are so high. In any case, we couldn't be more excited to bring something new and different to Lewes. Now, what we want to know is…is your glass half full?
