About Chez Nous
The idea of Chez Nous started over a decade ago around a conversation with dear friends. Creating a space where we would like to go and share wine, food & experiences with others.
Our wish is to have guests feel at home in our French inspired shop in Monroe Ward. Relax, enjoy and slow down.
Wines by the glass and bottle will rotate at the bar.
Contact us for your private event, where we can curate an intimate setting for family, friends or co-workers.
As we progress, our offerings will expand to include wine education, private wine clubs and escapes to France.
On y va!
About Founder and Owner, Melissa M. Stallard
Chez Nous is an ode to France and her sense of joie de vivre. The curated mercantile and wine bar offers a predominately French selection of wines and small plate offerings. Owned by Virginia native Melissa Stallard, a graduate of James Madison University, Chez Nous is a new venture for Stallard who changed career paths in 2024 after selling her insurance agency and deciding to lean into her love of food, wine and the culture of France. Along with an incredible team, Chez Nous transports their guests to a different place reminiscent of Europe where guests can linger over wine and shared experiences with others. Aided by their resident Parisian Eric Leyssalle guests can now join Chez Nous on travels across the pond to Provence & Bordeaux for 2027.
