We don't have a kitchen, but if you're hungry we do have some creative ways of feeding you.Great wine is for everyone, and everyone is welcome. See you soon at the Cellars!

Lovely wine and service. Would have loved to go back, but with lack of vegetarian food to accompany, that may be difficult.

Wine, pizza and trivia night. Good fun, good pizza. We were seated at the bar, close to the front section, which made it too hard to hear the quiz questions. Pizza was good, but food came out late. We like the casual vibe here, and the wine shop decor. We will go again.
