Montrose Cheese & Wine

Everything Montrose Cheese and Wine does is quality--one of my favorite go-to wine bars (retail wine shops) in Houston. The wine, service, food, and weekly events are a must. I'm also a wine club member, and their Scooby membership is an excellent way to try good wines out of your comfort zone.

If you have not been to Montrose Cheese & Wine, stop everything and go! This place is INCREDIBLE! Seriously, this is a secret gem and I'm here to let the secret out. Their wine selections are top tier, they have an extensive collection to suit all your wine tastes.  Now let's get to the best part of Montrose Cheese & Wine...the staff! The team that works here is Amazing! Each one of the staff members I meet each has this dynamic personality and you can tell they really enjoy their jobs. Alex, is so unique he can speak French fluently so when he describes your wine, he'll sneak in some French dialog plus he's super fun. Shablis is very knowledgeable about all the food entires on the menu and she's a pro at combining different flavors but making them work in a magical way. Joanne is super sweet and very helpful in assisting with your wine choices if you're stuck in between making a decision. The staff really sets this wine bar apart from any other wine bar as they aim to personalize your experience. Also, they have free wine tastings on Wednesday! Plus the patio area is super cute. Additionally, one thing I would like to add is that this is a perfect spot to come by yourself so if you want a good glass of wine after work before you head home, stop by and the team will make you feel very comfortable. In conclusion, I would recommend any and everyone to visit Montrose Cheese & Wine for a one of a kind experience.

I'm fairly new to the wine and cheese tasting game, but me and my friend had such a great experience here! Let me start off with saying that the staff here was so friendly. My friend and I were a little bit indecisive when it came to our wine flight and actually asked if they could just pick some of their top sellers for us. Not only did they pick them out, but they also explained to us what was what and gave us a little backstory on our cheese board! I can't remember the name but the cheese in the small round bowl was supposedly a top seller and ohhh my gosh I see why. Perfectly creamy! If they ship I will be ordering it directly to my house. They had indoor as well as outdoor seating, and the inside is so picturesque with all the wine bottles on the wall. This was a great place for our girls night and the setting would honestly be great for a date night too. Go check them out!

When I saw this racklette event on 365 Things To Do Houston, I was so excited for a cute cheese and wine day. Thankfully, valet was complimentary upon arrival to the event. We saw a line of people waiting for their cheese, so we joined them. There was a bit of confusion as we saw people leaving the line. We soon realized that you can't get the racelette until you've been seated. Whilst waiting to be seated, we enjoyed some wine in their wine room. This room is cozy and homey, I just wish they had more seats available! I also ordered an apple tarte tartin which was delicious! The tart was thick and the filling was creamy with a hint of cinnamon. It was then topped with thin slices of tightly rolled up apples. I wish I had taken more pictures of the experience but between holding my purse and wine, I was out of hands!

I attended a free tasting here and ended up staying for a while and buying a bottle. The service was great. I really enjoyed a rose that was part of the tasting but it was a bit too costly. Cornelius was super helpful and gave a more affordable recommendation. The place is a bit small inside but the patio is nice.Also, the chips that they sell are AMAZING. The black truffle and ham are the best.

Came on a Wednesday for a Free wine tasting. 1st thing the parking here is free street parking or complimentary valet parking. 2nd thing the place has indoors and outdoor seating. They have a large selection of wine that can only be found here, and they have a great selection of cheese. They also have a nice selection of delicious desserts. The wine tasting was nice as we started inside then went outside for 2 tastings and then went back inside for the last 2 tastings. This place is located in the same building as Rosie's Cannonball, so after the wine tasting we went there for dinner. Great Wednesday night. We did purchase a lovely wine. Next time we will buy some cheese. Make sure to register online for the wine tasting. 1st time here but it will not be the last time here.

They have a great wine selection and if you're going to get a bottle, go inside and pick from the wall or fridges.The only reasons it didn't get 5 stars is bc its a tad pricey, but mostly bc you wouldn't know you could drink the bottles sold inside for a fraction of the price out in their patio or inside. There's nothing to indicate that, but our server let us know so shoutout to the staff!

What a wonderful experience I had at the wine tasting on Wednesday! As soon as I entered, I saw wine glasses ready for me to enjoy. They also had paper sheets with the names and details of each bottle we sampled. I couldn't resist buying some amazing cheese from their selection. Shannon was so helpful and friendly; she recommended some cheeses that suited my taste perfectly.And guess what? If you spend $75.00 on cheese, you get a voucher for same day use for a pizza at Rosies next door! How awesome is that? I couldn't use it that day because I had other plans, but I will definitely come back.The place was so cozy and charming, with lovely seating and decor. It was a bit crowded, but they also had outdoor seating on a patio. If you have a special occasion coming up, or just want to treat yourself, you should stop by and get one of their prepackaged kits or a block of cheese for yourself! * If I could give them 6 stars I would.Parking: They have valet service for tips only.

They have a small but very appealing menu of wines by the glass and different snacky things such as charcuterie, cheeses, pastries, and a rotating sandwich of the day. They also have an extensive supply of retail wines in their shop, and best of all there is no corkage fee so you're welcome to enjoy the bottle right there and take home whatever you don't finish. The outside patio is also a great place to sit and enjoy your sipsThe service was friendly, when I walked in they were happy to explain everything to me. Feel free to just sit and everything is full service.

Quaint and friendly, Montrose Cheese and wine greeted us with open arms. For a Saturday afternoon, it was empty. Look now...I mean, it was okay. The premier wine flight offers zero flexibility for preference. Each glass was peppered with cork and none stood out as something memorable. They brought us more bread, which was appreciated. There's bar seating inside, but it's limited and the outdoor seating offers chairs with backs. Not a lot of options. Could be better, but it's not.
