DECANT SF Bottle Shop & Bar

A beautiful and welcoming oasis after taking a wrong turn and leaving the Tenderloin. Fantastic service and wines. We enjoyed the conversation with our sweet server and other customers. Our cheeses and bar snacks were delicious. Loved our evening!!!

The wine was delicious, did the sommelier flight where they chose the wines and it was fun + the wines were all delicious. The service was great as well!

What an incredible wine shop/bar! Simi and Cara are both elites in the somm world and are so helpful and knowledgeable choosing exactly what you might be looking for in terms of wine but also cheeses, tinned fish and anything you might need to put together a great charcuterie board at home. I've sent my partner there many a times and he simply just asks them and it's always perfect. I was most recently there for a wreath making class. Wine and wreath making: YES PLEASE! The class was great with Kim from Wyldflower Workshop who focuses her business on being sustainable and socially responsible! I love that. I also really love supporting women owned and progressive businesses. If you're looking for a great bottle or a glass to enjoy in shop, even charcuterie goods this will always be where you should come first! They offer regular classes, events, and even a club subscription with various benefits depending on the level you choose.

Walked in on a Sunday around 4pm with a friend. There were a few groups seated along the bar and communal tables, but still plenty of space available.Drink: wine flight - there was a white, orange and red. Flight comes with a detailed description card to walk you through the tasting notes and details on the winery. A fun variety, our favorites were the white and red. Rose of GSM- so good, really well balanced, light, refreshing and slightly sweetFood: build your own cheese plate - we choose Midnight Moon gouda which was delicious, nice nuttyiness and creaminess. Also tried the non dairy gouda which was interesting, had a nice creaminess and savory flavor, texture was a bit like processed cheese. The crackers, olives and jam paired nicely with the cheeses. Service was okay, a little on the slow side but there was only one person working so it was understandable.Overall great wine shop/ wine bar with a large selection of bottles and a few wines by the glass. Love the variety of snack offerings available as well. Nice range of prices for bottles, so great for picking up a gift. Would come back to enjoy a glass or split a bottle with friends.

We stopped by this wine bar on a Saturday evening, and it was such a cute setting inside. They were holding an event with tarot readings and live music, which was great for the intimate space and small audience. The service here was awesome, multiple staff members ready to help guests. We tried a couple glasses of wine (Pinot Noir and Sangiovese) and enjoyed them both. To snack on, we created our own charcuterie board, with Aged Cheddar, Barley Buzzed Cheddar, and the Ragged Point (we wanted the Afterglow, but they were out), as well as salami, crackers, and olives. The presentation was fairly simple and not very impressive, and it seemed a bit overpriced for what we got. But the cheeses were good and we finished the whole thing. We enjoyed our visit, a pleasant atmosphere with inviting decor and wine bottles set up nicely throughout, with so many unique wine options for purchase. And the added laid-back entertainment specifically for this event made for a great experience overall.

Service is fantastic, just what you'd expect from a place that sells high end wines and a wine club. They also have a great selection of tinned fish and a tinned fish club you can join. I highly recommend trying any of the tinned fish paired with the recommended wines. It's a cute place and you can sit down to drink your wine or eat the accompaniments, but it's really designed for take away.

Love the build your own board! Choose from a variety of cheeses and fishes to build a board for the size of your party! They all come with crackers, pickles and jam. Great wine selection and cool classes about cheese making and other topics to sign up for! Super friendly staff with great recommendations. Can't wait to go back.

I went with my boyfriend to my neighborhood wine shop for a drink and to pick up a few gifts. We were greeted by Riley who gave great service. More importantly I was looking for wines from a specific region and wanted to get something a bit more special. Riley was very knowledgeable and provided two phenomenal recommendations for wines that my friend would love. Sure enough the wines were a hit. I was impressed with Riley's knowledge and professionalism and will definitely return for my future wine needs.

Happy hour wine flight? Yes please! I recently found out about DECANTsf through a friend and am so happy I did because this is a great afterwork spot! At $20 per flight, you get 3 varied glasses of wine with pretty generous pours - it was great being able to try different types of wine from all over! As someone who loves tinned fish, I was also very pleased with their build your own board menu which lets you select from a variety of tinned fish, meats, and cheeses which they serve on a board alongside crackers, olives, sauces, etc. The ambiance is also really nice and I love their neon sign in the seating area - very vibey! Service was very friendly and I appreciated that they took their time to chat with us about the wines we were drinking even though it was a bit busy!

Pretty cool wine bar but the fact that they charge $9 for plates when you also pay for the food on those plates??? And then a pretty high corkage fee to drink while there? Are they not wanting you to eat and drink at their establishment? Those fees are absurd and certainly discourage you from wanting to enjoy any of their offerings at the actual location.
