Lush Fine Wines & Specialty

I love this place!!! Best beer selection in town and good people too. If you go in ask for Katie and tip very well! These people deserve it. :))

I'm gonna agree with the previous reviews; a wine bar in Hanford is a pleasant surprise, if not an utter shocker.  It's pretty cozy - I went in this week to buy a bottle of wine & I noticed the occupancy is 18!  Although it's a wine bar, they also sell lots of wine.  I've come in, told the ladies I would like, say, a pinot, I want to spend this much money, & voila! I'm in & out.  They are very helpful (I was pleased with their choices), & not at all pretentious (neither is the atmosphere).  There's a lot more wine than I would have expected in the small place, to be honest.  

The bar area seats a measly amount of people; I have been here when it's bare & when it's not so bare, but never for Thursday night market or wine & chocolate nights (a main street hanford event which they participate in) but i can imagine.  This aint the Sequoia Club (not that's there's anything wrong w/ karaoke, holla!); there are business peep types, younger cool kid types; heck, your mom & her girlfriends might hang here out for a drink, but you could definitely take a date here & not be embarrassed.  The decor is cool & relaxing.  I love the large windows & the view; it's also in a historic building that creaks with every step you take.  It's great. Love that about downtown Hanford.

The food choices bite (pun intended); they have cheese plates as mentioned, & i've had something else besides cheese, like some kind of meat, but i cant remember.  No matter, the food choices are minimum at best & you have been warned (eat before you come in... unless you want to get your buzz on fast & cheaply).  They offer some beer choices too.

The hours also are confusing to me; I think they do close early if business is slow, but who knows.   I do recommend giving them a try even though their hours make it tough.  I hope they stay in business for a long time; it's great for this little town!

Me and my two friends were very excited to go wine tasting since Hanford didn't have anything like this before. We made sure to call to see what hour they closed and they said 8. We got there around 7 and the closed sign was up and we saw people are the bar drinking and the bar tender didn't even acknowledge us to say why they closed early. Very dissapointed, might give them a try again in the future but not looking forward to go early.
