The best wine shop in the city. Several wines available by the glass along with great coffee and food. Take away wine until 11pm 7 days. Staff is very knowledgeable. Aussie and imports available.

Best terrine! Amazing panzanella salad! Great service and amazing wines. Unmissable in Melbourne.

Keep an eye open for the special fish stew... It's one of the best I've ever had and so much choice of wine to go with it.

Huge and well rounded wine selection, and the desserts are amazing 🍮

I'd never patron this place or Super Club again after recently ordering wine. Reneged on quoted price and upset loyal customers over $13.50! Well done Gabrielle rewriting the invoice was so clever!!

Great casual (but not too casual) place for a drink and a bite. Try the polenta chips - they're the best!

Food is amazing, so is wine and cheese. The wait staff are aloof at best. You have to constantly flag down someone down to take your order

My favourite spot in Melbourne for a wine and a people watch.

Sample wines from around the world, France, Spain, Italy and of course home grown from the Yarra Valley and Mornington region.

The jerked chicken wings were a definite winner. A must have. Dig in with your fingers and enjoy.

Best consistently good coffee in Melbourne, or at least within walking distance. Say Hi to Sam, he's the manager and he's great.

Excellent spot for breakfast meetings in the summer. Coffee is always fantastic.

Charming wine bar with a great atmosphere. Ask the staff for wine suggestions and food pairings.

A perfect place for having dinner if you are travelling and need to eat alone. Sit at the bar and ask them to choose the wine for you.

Best chicken schnitzel in town.
Jess HoMarch 24, 2010
Try the tuna niscoise, very clever interpretation, as well as the whitebait and you can't go past the lemon tart. Great wines.
Lor ChanMarch 12, 2012
Many many bottles well labelled. Oysters n sardines easily run out...order first!!!

Still good. Just in case you needed to know. All the good feedback is still valid!

Pork Belly with lentils and apple salad. You might as well nail my feet to the floor there, I cannot leave. I want more.
Jon MaximSeptember 16, 2011
$16 bucks for a glass of wine. Cheapest, $9.50. But a great place - very Melbourne
