Low Key place with great fare There wasn't many people in there on a Wednesday night. My friend and I overstayed and we were never kicked out (sorry my guy, the wine was flowing so the convo kept flowing) I had a sauvignon blanc to start which was crisp and delicious. I really should've taken notes on what the wines were because they were so good. Then I had a Pinot noir, also delicious. The sweet spicy pretzels paired perfectly with the wine.

Walked into this cute wine/ whiskey bar. Just before the holidays you would think you'd want to have this place staffed with more than just one server. The ambiance is cute with a few different tables and a communal table for couples/ singles. Bottles of wine adorn the built in library walls and it does seem cozy. I love the original typewriter in the bar area.We sat at the shared table, pulling up QR codes for the menu. We had to flag the only one person serving the entire bar down so that we could order drinks and food. She took our drink order, and then probably about 30 minutes went by after we were eyeing her left and right, it was clear to us that she was too busy or not making eye contact because she couldn't keep up with what was happening. Or at least I thought. After watching her have a full-blown conversation with the other person working there up at the bar area, we finally were able to get some food in, as my bf flagged her down. Olives for $7. A couple had pits that they missed I guess. But only about 12 olives total. Absolutely ridiculous.The BBQ chicken flatbread? Perhaps not. The dough was like a matzoh cracker. The chicken tasted like bland boring boiled chicken. After having been there for about 45 minutes with no food and only a couple of very strong Manhattans that were not well made, I was starting to get loopy so I wolfed down the flatbread even though it tasted like garbage. While I think this spot has a lot of potential, the service was so lackluster in the cutest of little towns, I would not come back.

Great place to grab a drink on the Square. The ambiance is nice and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Had a few different bourbons from a pretty large selection, just need to get some Angels Envy. Overall it's a great space to relax and soak in the atmosphere.

Looks beautiful. Service a bit slow. One stool was dangerously wobbling around. They don't serve juice or club soda. I had to drink tap water. Not too many options for the designated driver.10% off the purchase of a case of wine. Stunning variety and choice.Good whiskeys. Particularly the bourbon.One toilet in the back. Usually a line up.

Used to love this place back when they did flights but they got rid of a few years ago and now think their price per glass of wines is way over priced. Also wish they did more tapas.

Fun spot for an after dinner glass of wine or a custom crafted cocktail. Seating is arranged in a casual, living room (or lounge) style making for a cozy evening of drinks, music and conversation.All the walls are lined with bottles for you to both peruse and to purchase. My wife found a very hard-to-find bottle (here in Ohio at least) which made her quite happy when we left.

Stopped in with 3 other ladies and had the snack platter and a recommended rose. Love the atmosphere here, the hostess is always such a delight to talk to and has great recommendations for any budget if you ask.

Let me preface this review by saying we have been to H2 numerous times over the last 5 or so years and have had mostly pleasant experiences every time.However, it's been a while since we last visited as we are now parents and there just hasn't been time.Me, my one 1 yr old son, my wife, and a friend were in the area for dinner and decided to swing by H2 for a glass of wine before heading home. Our server was great and got us exactly what we were looking for in a timely manner.After about 15 minutes of drinking our wine, a woman awkwardly meandered over to our table (right next to the door, mind you, in an effort to not disturb the 4 other people at the bar).She introduced herself as the manager and said "we have other patrons here and with it being 9 o clock and your baby crying we have to be mindful of the customers". I was taken aback as our son was not crying, he was watching a television show (on mute) in his tablet and would occasionally prompt us when he wanted a snack. He was not crying, yelling, or causing a scene by any means and I would have absolutely removed him from the premises to go for a walk if he was.I asked her if she would like us to leave and she smiled and said "well you can finish your drinks but we just can't have a baby running around and disrupting our other customers." This made no sense as I was holding our son and he wasn't running anywhere. We were also seated as far away from the meager amount of patrons they actually had in this place.She then left our table and went back to the bar. We were all in shock because the entire situation didn't make sense. You saw we had a child when we came in, took our order, and suddenly decide it's a problem when the child in question...made noises?So there we were, with our wine we no longer had any desire to stay and drink. We waited for her to bring the check so we could expedite leaving this pretentious clown show and it never came....If you had to come and exercise the only actual power you have in your life to ruin our evening; you would think she would have had the requisite brain cells to bring our check so we could stop ruining the vibe of the 4 other people there. Unfortunately she lacked the cognitive prowess.So my wife had to go up to the bar and ask "if you guys are going to kick us out, can you at least bring us our check so we can leave?". The server looked shocked because it was clear he had no idea his manager did this.He came back to our table and profusely apologized saying he had no idea and that he didn't understand why she felt the need to make a scene about having our kid there. I told him it was all good and it wasn't his fault. We understand people in the service industry work hard and I didn't penalize him for the behavior of his pretentious manager.We paid our tab and left and will not return. We will also be telling our friends and family to steer well and truly clear. I love supporting local businesses. We have had great times at this very business in years past.For a place nestled in Medina Square (a very family-oriented place), it couldn't have been more of a hostile environment to those folks who do have kids. I firmly believe if your child is misbehaving it's on the parents to see the behavior and either correct it or remove them from the situation. We never even got close to that line but I guess she had other opinions.All this to say, if you have a clown managing your operation then it's only ever going to be a circus. Really hope they find new management and I feel bad for the unfortunate people who have to work with/under her.
