Swirl On the Square

Awesome little quaint wine bar with tapas. Great atmosphere great location and occasionally they will have live entertainment. I do plan on coming again.

Yelp check in - $10 flights, GREAT value!Just left the great Omega Winery Yelp event. The tasting was a tease over there. And there was not enough time to buy more glasses as the next group of Yelpies were going to arrive soon, so we came here instead.Quality/Quantity - The F-bomb $13 - Wow, it was so good. Exceeded both our expectations. Wines I got:Cloudline Pinot Noir - 2 glasses, okay I am drinking way too much! First glass $15, second glass was part of the Yelp check-in $10 flight deal. Again, what a GREAT value!If I was better at checking in before ordering... I would have only gotten just the flight; it was way too much wine for one day.Tooth and Nail Red Blend - Good.Steven Kent L'Audre Cote Cab Franc - We used to be members of Steven Kent, loved their wines.Also available - Draft beers, sangria, salads, tapas, savory & sweet menus, see picture.Daily specials.Atmosphere - Decent size indoor/outdoor space. Sorry I did not take a lot of outdoor pictures as ALL the chairs and tables had dust or pollen on it and I did not want it on me. Dry cleaning bills are getting out of hand, LOL.Live music, see website for schedule.Open 4 days a week only, see Yelp or their website.Service - Counter service. Place your order, they hand you your drinks, and give you a # to bring out your food.Price - $50 + tip; reasonably priced but we went overboard as this was supposed to be a snack...Owner Suggestion - Congrats on your success since 2009 and with the new ownership this year. Wishing you the best.

Oh that artichoke bread and baked feta ... so good. Wifey had sangria, super yummy while I got a beer from Tap

This is a good place to stop in as you're cruising through Livermore. There are plenty of drink options to satisfy your group and there's not a bad seat in the house- both inside and out. The few times I've been here, they've had live music or some sort of event, so it was always fun!

What a cute place to enjoy a girls day! I came here with my best friend and we squealed when we saw they had frosè floats (frozen rosé) on the menu!!! Such a fun drink and it was perfect for the weather. Although the sugar contents was a little high for me, I still enjoyed it and it made for really cute Instagram story pictures (yes, we absolutely took a class clinging boomerang). They also have a nonalcoholic mango frozen drink, I ordered that and I added a glass of Prosecco wine to it. That was super sweet but still yummy. I noticed their menu tends to change a lot for example last year their charcuterie board was completely different than this years. Different ingredients and much smaller. I also ended up ordering the truffle popcorn which came in a really big bowl and it was delicious. In addition, we ordered the hummus plate but instead of getting pita bread we had double cucumbers, it was OK. Nothing special and a little pricy for the size. Overall, I enjoyed the drinks at this place more than the food. Which makes sense. The staff was really nice but not too knowledgeable about the food or wine.

Arrived around noon on a Saturday, it was not busy but most tables were reserved in the afternoon, so it is recommended to make a reservation. They have a limited food and beverage menu, we had a beer and a glass of wine and the pretzle. The pretzle was 2 pretzles covered in melted cheese and crispy bacon. They were having Live Music, but they were finishing setting up by the time we were leaving. It is a great spot, our server Michelle was very attentive and we will be back.

I decided to go here for my birthday with a couple of best friends and was pretty disappointed. I wanted to check it out based on the photos of the charcuterie pictures here on Yelp and what we got was nothing near the pictures. I attached a photo of what we got so you can compare to what is advertised. Also, the waitress totally forgot our hummus order. We had to ask her about it after an hour. She acknowledged she forgot but we decided to just go somewhere else. I will also add that it was NOT that busy. I've dined at busier places with better service. First impressions are everything... that said we likely won't be back.The outdoor ambiance and the live music was a nice touch and that's why I've rated 3 stars.

One of our favorite Livermore spots, especially on weekends when there's live music in the square. Everyone that works here is super friendly, always smiling, and always friendly. They truly care about their customers' entire experience. We usually buy a bottle of wine and an appetizer and enjoy the scenery in the square, but we have also been for trivia nights and that's super fun as well! Their artichoke bread is so delicious, and they do a great job with their hummus platter as well! This is one of those places I would recommend to an out of towner wanting to get a good feel of what Livermore has to offer. I'd definitely suggest a bottle (or glass, ha) of wine, food, and live music out on the patio!

I love Swirl!My friend and I go here pretty often, as it's kind of a "halfway" meetup point between our two cities, and a great place to hang. It's such a good spot- great ambiance and good prices. I love that they have live music coming back again after a COVID hiatus, and everything is spread and distanced super well. Prior to COVID, there was even more seating and it was fun to have communal picnic tables and such. They have a good selection of reasonably priced wine, and I also LOVE the sangria and the sangria slushees when it gets hot!The food is interesting to me- some of it is really high quality, and then some of it feels like they just opened a grocery store package and microwaved it. That's probably my only knock on them- for the price of the food, I'd go somewhere else in DT Livermore and then come here for my drinks afterwards. The only downside is that sometimes there are drunk morons there with poorly trained dogs who get up in your and your own dogs' space. We've had more than one occasion where someone has let their dog stretch 20 feet away from their table on their retractable leash and come get up in our business (Livermore has a very strict 6 foot leash law, so besides being rude, it's a breach of the rules). This happens pretty much anywhere that's dog friendly so it's not really a surprise, but it's worth a word of caution if you aren't a fan of dogs, or have a dog of your own that isn't a fan of other animals in their face.

One word...DONT. Ordered tater tots, waited 45 minutes, nada! This isn't our first time with horrible service. Thought we would give them some grace. Will never be a patron again!!
