Mercy Bar and Lounge

  This is a wine bar with a very laid back yet classy vibe.   The wine selection is not that expansive, however the wines they do have are very good.  The food selection is great and I liked that you can also get a cheese tray with your wine.   They had live music which also added to the ambiance.  The lights are dim.  Lots of spaced out seating without feeling like you're being reminded about Covid.  Yet it felt very safe.  The service is also superb.  This is an excellent place for an unpretentious date night.  A date could be romantic, or chill here depending on your liking.  Two thumbs up!

Winter Driving Tips For Texans

    1. After a freeze and during freezing precipitation, until the temperature is above 35 degrees, don't drive above 35 mph. 2. Avoid highways 3. If you do slide, turn your wheel in to the direction that your car is sliding and repetitively tap your breaks.  This will help you gain control of your car. 4. Regardless of how fast others are going, go at your own pace..  They could have winter tires, an emergency situation or just not care that it's dangerous.   Stay Safe!  

Review/Mercy Wine Bar Addison

I loved this place.  This is a past due review, I went here back in July, but just remembered and thought I'd review it.   I'd describe the atmosphere as chill and swanky.  It was a live band playing, I believe the band was the Paul Breedlove Band, and the music was really good.  The music is relateable for most crowds, I'd describe it as jazz pop.  It was upbeat and fun but still chill.   The sexy, professional crowd could appreciate this place for releasing stress.  The lighting is dim, the decor is hot, I'd highly suggest valeting your car if you go.   May as well, the parking in this area is wack .  Anyway, keeping in line with the name of the place, my date and I had red wine to drink.  He was a minister, but hey they drank wine in the Bible!  So I'm not judging.  All in all, I think this place makes a great date night spot.  Its also a great spot to pregame as well.
