Intimate wine bar with well rounded selection of beer and wine. Great for a date... Not so great for a breakup (witnessed here and the whole bar heard every word.)
A total hidden gem of a wine bar, great to just chill out and enjoy a glass of wine or beer, whether alone or with company. You can't go wrong if you're in the area.
My favorite wine bar in the East Village. Excellent curated and limited list of wines by the glass, always changing. Happy hour from 5-7pm at $8 per glass let you improve your world wineeducation
A great selection of wine from across the globe. Ask for a taste if you're not sure. The pours here are generous. To accompany the wine, get the cheese and meat plate and the Greek olives.
Intimate, chill spot to grab and drink and catchup with 1-2 people (not too many more, it's a small & narrow space). Good happy hour deal if you can get there before 6:30.
The space is a bit cramped and the seating is a little uncomfortable, but it's a cute spot nonetheless. If you're ordering a glass, ask to taste it first, because bartender skipped that step with me.
Possibly the most civilized beer spot in the East Village. No sports on TV (no TV), you can carry a conversation without shouting and a well thought out selection of beers.
Nice little spot. You'll get more out of it on a date. Because alcohol and aphrodisiac. Or something. Pretty good prices, considering the zip code. So you can afford to take your date to dinner too.
This is my first time stop by and I was so surprised that their Boudreaux blend red is so smooth, love it! Absolutely worth the price to me given that I grew up in winecounty near Cornell University
One of the best-kept secrets in the East Village. This quaint little wine bar has Brooklyn beer on tap, good music, and a fantastic atmosphere. Talk to the owner, Jason, if you get a chance.
Tempranillo is your perfect match if you like a good Spanish wine. Aromatic, red fruit aromas, savory rather than sweet, tobacco and spice flavors. Pair with any cheese but avoid blue cheese.
Jason, the owner, is the nicest guy you'll meet. Super knowledgable about wines and beers. Pull up a stool and chat him up. Also, the tempranillo is solid. Have some.
