We remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to this country and the families who carry that sacrifice every day.
At the 76er, we’re grateful for the freedoms we often take for granted and for the people who made them possible. As we gather around tables with friends and family this Memorial Day, may we pause to honor those who never made it home.
Wishing everyone a meaningful and safe Memorial Day.

Some friendships last a lifetime.
Darcie and Erik (pictured) graduated together years ago from Crystal Lake Central… and tonight, they’re back behind the bar together slinging drinks at The 76er. 🍸
There’s something special about celebrating milestones with people who have been part of your story from the beginning — and this weekend is all about that. Family, friends, memories, and raising a glass to the moments that matter most.
Whether you’re celebrating a graduate, welcoming family into town, or kicking off the holiday weekend, we’d love to have you join us. Pull up a chair, grab a cocktail, and celebrate with us tonight.

Join us next week for the Marchelle Pop Up Wine Dinner.... Come meet some of Erik’s ’Sonoma Family’, Thursday, May 21st, 2026.
Marchelle's Wine began as a deeply personal project of Greg LaFollette, one of Sonoma’s unsung legendary winemakers. Known for helping establish iconic brands like Flowers and shaping Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay as we know it, Greg now stewards wines that honor the vineyard sites closest to his heart.
For Erik, Greg has been more than a winemaker, he has been a mentor in his own journey through wine and winemaking.
Evan has been part of the Marchelle winemaking team since its founding in 2021. Erik met Evan a year later while working harvest and had his hands on the very grapes now found in the bottles we will be sharing as part of this special tasting.
Evan Damiano, associate wine maker will be at the restaurant to share this experience with all of you. Limited to 50 guests alongside our normal menu, this is a night not to be missed. Reservations are strongly encouraged, and we ask that you notate how many guests in your party would like to participate in the tasting menu so we can reserve your spot.
/ Marchelle Tasting Menu / $60 per guest (tax & tip is not included)

2022 Marchelle "Tritone" Chardonnay
scallops, mushroom butter, asparagus, pancetta, lemon oil

2022 Marchelle Old Vine “Family Cuvée"
duck croquettes, currant verjus, citrus aioli
