About Me



Background from Yahoo search resultBistro 45 Just around the corner in the back, shaded by a canopy of trees, the sounds of laughter and an occasional guitar filling the air, Bistro 45, just off Payette Lake captures the essence of a summer afternoon in McCall. As winter comes around folks gather inside to play one of the many board games with the warmth of friendly faces and good cheer around them. To insure your pleasure the wines by the glass may be sampled, or maybe a bottle to go. Ahh!!! And get a case to stock up the home cellar and receive a discount on the purchase.Bistro 45, the heartbeat of the community is a neighborhood-gathering place where friends and family can enjoy wine and light fare in a relaxed atmosphere. Reasonable priced wines line the walls and for a $5.00 corkage fee one can take a seat and enjoy it with food designed to enhance the flavor of both the wine and the meal.
