Really liked this establishment for the atmosphere, food and wine. It was a bit unexpected as we met friends. I wasn't sure what to expect and was pleasantly surprised.The only thing that would have improved the experience would be table service vs us constantly having to go up to a very busy bar and order. Maybe in the future.

This place was absolutely perfect! I've never been until tonight which is crazy because it's exactly my kind of place. My friend and I chose it for our "Mom Date Night" specifically because she loves beer and I love wine so it's literally the most perfect spot! Our bartender was awesome and explained their system perfectly. She also was super friendly and welcoming to two newcomers. Their selection of beer and wine on tap was pretty impressive and worth checking out as well. And the location can't be beat; right at the intersection of 7th and Main in Mainstrasse, south enough from the super heavy foot traffic so you can still find a parking spot in the nearby flat lot but close enough to the action that you can sit on the front patio and enjoy all the people-watching. Although we didn't partake, Wednesdays are their Bottle & Board night special including a bottle of wine and charcuterie board, then I saw that Thursdays are wine tasting nights. What I really can't wait to come back for though are their special Saturday meals when they more often than not have something delicious-looking coming out of the kitchen or off the smoker or grill. Will definitely be back; this place has a little something for everyone!

Great little place in Covington for a date night or girls night! We were looking for a place in Covington with outdoor seating and heaters to go to after dinner and came across this little gem. The staff was super friendly and the place is cozy. They also have a back patio outdoor area with 3-4 tables it looked like. The inside is small, but also has space for 3-4 tables socially distanced.Reasonably priced wines and beer and you can do flights! I love trying a bunch of different wines so flights were a perfect option. I tried a flight with 2 red and 2 whites. They had a Montepulciano on tap so I had to try it! I don't normally see many places with a Montepulciano where the majority are brim the Abruzzo region of Italy. For my flight I had the La Vite Montepulciano, Lobetia Tempranillo, Pratsch GrunerVettliner, and the Christophe Coquarf Rose. I enjoyed them all and recommend the Montepulciano if you like reds that are simple, earthy and smooth. They also offer charcuterie boards and lite bites! Perfect for drinking the night away :) We will come back for happy hour or girls nights again soon, especially with the weather getting nicer.

Amazing wine and food selection. The staff was easy to tap to and very responsive. Loved the glass of red and we also got a sparkling rose. Amazing time and can't wait to return. Street parking.

Had a lovely Wednesday wine-down at Crafts & Vines in beautiful Mainstrasse this week. Crafts and Vines is an intimate wine and craft beer bar offering charcuterie and bar snacks daily and other dishes such as tacos and chili at other times (follow their Instagram for updates on food and special sales). Wednesdays are a great time to visit, since that's when Crafts & Vines offers their Board and Bottle special - a bottle of wine and pick three charcuterie board for $22 or pick six board for $28. We had dinner plans so we went for the pick three. Tim behind the bar asked what wine we preferred (reds) and gave us four bottles to choose from, letting us know which was most popular at a recent tasting. We went with a Syrah and picked an amazing cheddar with caramelized onion, house-made pimento cheese spread and dry salami for our board. Our board also came with gorgeous bread (bonus points for the spot on bread to cheese ratio), fig spread, grain mustard, marcona almonds, dried cranberries and apricots, gherkins and something else pickled that I forgot to ask about. The place is dog friendly, "so long as the dogs are friendly," and there's a patio out back. Already have my next trip planned with friends.

SRIRACHA. MAPLE. BACON. The unholy trinity of all of my deepest, darkest desires was here all along on the charcuterie menu at Crafts and Vines! Seriously: this might be the must-have appetizer in all of Cincinnati. Succulent, decadent indulgences aside, Craft & Vines is a fun wine bar offering flights of around 8 on-tap wines. $10 = a generous four wine tasting. I went with the whites, and a friend went with all of the reds - I wouldn't knock a single one of them. The vibe is very laidback (there's a wrap copper-top bar, a cozy room with a fireplace and a back room with a few tables). I know I am late to the party, but you can add Crafts & Vines to the reasons why I love Historic Mainstraße!Pro tip: the alley running behind the building is called Willard St. There are free public parking spaces allotted by the City of Covington between Pershing Ave. and W 7th Street (in the yellow-lined spaces). Park for free!
