Such a wonderful local spot! The servers are super friendly, have a generous pour, and the place has a wonderful chill vibe. The food is decent and the wine is great! Cannot recommend enough!

Awesome atmosphere. Cozy, dark, romantic! Sometimes the service is lovely and sometimes it's a bit sassy! Still great either way! Fish and chips is delicious! Nice wine and beer choices. I heard the cheesecake is yummy!

This place makes me want to get a yelp a account just to give it 5 stars. They have Christmas lights hanging with ornaments and it makes me feel like home. Wine snobs need not apply. Hippy palace with fantastic live music, frozen pizza and hamm's beer. Love it.

One of the best atmospheres for a drink in town with great staff, live music and fun karaoke on Thursdays.

Had a great meal here made right behind the bar by a wonderful chef, Milly. Was a great experience even though we were only there for a short amount of time. Definitely worth going back.

I've been going to the Wine Cafe' for over 5 years for the live music and my latest visit was a huge disappointment. From experience, I knew one had to get there early to get a seat in the band area so my date and I were there before the band start time only to find ALL the tables in the area had been reserved. This I'd never seen before, and according to information here on Yelp they don't take reservations. We had been planning to go for day, and had I known about needing reservations, I would have made one. So we had to sit in the back where you really couldn't hear the music well. Then, there was no table service to speak of, and I had to go to the crowded bar to get a drink. When we finished the drink and were looking for another, again, no table service. Went to the bar to get drinks again and it was three persons deep... at that point we gave up and went somewhere else. Very bad experience.
