ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. — Winslow’s Table has opened a retail addition, The Cellar Shop at Winslow’s Table, in the downstairs portion of the store and restaurant in the Delmar Loop.
The Cellar Shop, which opened April 16, carries a selection of artisanal goods, wines and spirits, beauty products, and home goods, as well as Missouri-made specialties such as Colony Co.’s reusable produce bags out of Springfield and Messner Bee Farm’s candles, lotions, jewelry and lip balms from Raytown.
The space formerly was used for hosting private events such as wedding parties, baby showers and birthdays.
Tara and Michael Gallina, who also own the nationally recognized Vicia, purchased what was then Winslow's Home, located at 7213 Delmar Blvd., in August 2019 from previous owner Ann Sheehan Lipton. The Gallinas changed its name to Winslow’s Table, which bills itself as a market and bakery.
The Gallinas have since brought their restaurants under their Take Root Hospitality (TRH) restaurant group.
Kara Flaherty, beverage and retail director at TRH, was responsible for getting The Cellar Shop up and running.
Winslow’s has always had a retail component to it, even before the Gallinas' purchased the restaurant, she said. When the Gallinas took over, they wanted to do away with the integrated retail space and focus on the food and hospitality portion of the business.
So they limited retail to food and beverage items, serving a seasonal menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner items to dine-in and carry-out guests.
But when the pandemic hit in 2020, they were tasked with devising a plan to keep the restaurant open and continue to be able to pay employees.
