The Wine Loft is kind of a "hit or miss" type place to me. Â I have been several times, and each time it is a different type of crowd....sometimes quiet and relaxing, and others they are stacked 2-3 deep at the bar. Â It can be hard to get the attention of a bartender at times.
The wine list is good, and I have been pleased with the suggestions of the staff when I asked advice. Â
I usually make it here for a glass each time I'm in town.
A great place to hang out with friends, grab a quick bite and sip a few glasses of wine. Their wine selection is pretty good and the manager and bartenders are extremely welcoming and friendly.
They also several nights a week with "specials" going on.
Tue is half off bottles of wine, Wed is wine tasting and I hear on Sat nights this place really gets going. Can't wait to find out.
One of my very favorite places to hang out on the Northshore. Â Their food menu is pretty good and they've got a great wine list as well as a full bar. Â It can get very loud later in the evening, but if you go early, it is a very nice and cozy place to sip a great glass of wine, chat with your friends and share a cheese plate served on a tile!
Review Source:Located in the Chenier development, The Wine Loft is a nice bar when it isn't crowded.
As you walk into this dark bar, you will notice that there are several couches/chairs around the edges of the room. These areas are divided by small curtains which give you the feeling of your own space. These areas are great for a romantic night out or just hanging out with some friends.
There is a huge selection of wines by the glass, but their beer selection needs work. I realize this is a wine bar, but I am a beer aficionado. They did have Stella Artois so I was OK. On my most recent trip the bartender was very friendly and helpful.
The few times I have been the bar has not been crowded, but be warned, it does get packed on some nights.
If your looking for a laid back wine bar, this is a good place to start out the night.
The wine list is decent. Â The staff is great! Â Brandon, the manager, is very customer service oriented. Â Just secure a bank loan before you go, because the drinks are NOT cheap! Â Oh, and do not pass out there. Â They touch you and stuff while you are under.
UPDATE: Â I slept behind the Wine Loft again last night and when I awoke, I found that, besides a few bug bites, my body had not been touched or altered in any way, although my watch, cigarettes and wallet were gone. Â I would advise going home or securing hotel accommodations after getting intoxicated here.
