Wanderlust Wine - Shady Lane

I never realized how large this location is or how much selection they have!The Holly Jolly event is a must-see/must-so during the hoiday season. It's like a literal playground for kids.Great outdoor patio area.Well-appointed wines in just about every style and flavor you can think of.

They always host fun events here. Pro tip: If you do pour yourself some wine from the taps, make sure the other nearby taps are closed. I poured some wine and another tap started pouring out at the same time. I was charged $30. I did complain and at first they were like "too bad it's per ounce." However, I spoke to them a second time because I knew the price couldn't be right. Finally they agreed to refund me because they saw that it recorded two taps pouring at the same time. I hate that I had to complain twice but they did refund me the amount I did not drink/deserve to pay for. I won't ding them for it but I will definitely be more careful next time.

I've visited wanderlust wine bar a few times now, once for their drag brunch and another time for their Christmas pop-up bar. The Christmas pop-up bar was fun, the decorations were great, but I wasn't a huge fan of the drinks, especially the cocktail included in the ticket price. My friends purchased the grazing bar option for a snack and the one small cone of charcuterie was $18, but they did get a choice of what they wanted. Not sure I'd go back again, but it was definitely a fun time with friends and something to try.

This rating is strictly for the Sunday Drag Brunch which imho is one of the best two in the city and #1 in setting and ambiance! I wasn't a huge fan of the wines themselves, but the bubblies and margaritas were delightful and the queens were all top notch. Service was a four out of five that day (they almost forgot our VIP Jell-O shots...shame!) but overall, it was a tremendous time and we'd gladly go again (and again and again).

We absolutely LOVED drag brunch at Wanderlust! We got the VIP package which included 2 drinks and a Jell-O shot each. It wasn't too busy so service was fast and the drinks were great. The show itself was a blast. Since I live in Chicago, I see drag shows all the time and take for granted how accepted it is as an art form. I loved that the performers took a moment to remind us that in most other places in Texas, they wouldn't be allowed to perform. Loved their empowering speeches and general strength to keep doing what they love. Also the food truck outside had limited options (only pork and beef) but the food was FIREEEE.

Wanderlust Wine on Shady Lane is an absolute gem for get-togethers. The vibrant atmosphere, fueled by colorful murals and an eclectic mix of comfy chairs, sets the stage for a fun and lively experience. Ordering at the bar is a breeze, especially with an array of draft wine options to explore. The staff is always friendly and attentive. The open seating arrangement adds to the communal vibe, making it an ideal spot for group events. Plus, the availability of food trucks ensures you won't go hungry, making this a well-rounded destination for a memorable night out. Cheers to Wanderlust Wine for creating a fantastic blend of great ambiance, diverse drink choices, and delicious bites!

Had a fun time here for the Saturday 2000-2010 bingo!! Can't go wrong with the best songs of the century, bingo, and wine. The bingo host was also fun and energetic. Wine was about $2 per ounce and there is a large selection to choose from on tap. A few groups there also played bingo for their bachelorette/bachelor party. There was some curb street parking but I didn't see a parking lot.

Love the atmosphere, ability to try multiple wines in small quantities and that they have a large space for groups.

it's always a fun time at wanderlust!! I absolutely LOVE it here. From their delicious wine, drinks, hello shots to their super fun events, you're guaranteed a good time. I have come to a variety of their events like their happy hours, the Yelp elite events, drag brunches and recently I got to experience their 2000s Musical Bingo! By far my FAVORITE event. I got to vibe with my besties and listen to some music! Their selection of wines is CRAZY!! so much to choose from but also don't sleep on their frozen cocktails! i had a mix of their watermelon and lime frozen rita, 5 too many hahaha!! The host for the 2000s bingo was so nice and his energy was amazing!!! The people ay wanderlust are so sweet and I love the vibes in here. can't wait to come to enjoy some more free events!

Drag Brunch was fun & interactive! Drinks were subpar, nothing I loved. The frozen drinks were coming out melted repeatedly. Service was okay, most of the staff was very tip-forward, requesting tips, which I don't love.
