Fantastic spot for fine wine and good food. Conveniently located on the Spring st end of the CBD. Have a great selection of wines to suit all palates and good range of food to match. Service is friendly and helpful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice wine lunch or an after work drink
Still such a great place, always like going, you walk in and relax and leave knowing it's going to be like this the next time. 👏👏
Amazing and accessible wine bar with options ranging from approachable by the glass to premium by the bottle.
Premium bar snacks and simple food available.
I highly recommend City Wine Shop for both their variety, and their approach.
This gem of a city wine bar is perfect for a summer's day drink on the pavement or in winter a sweet at the long indoor tasting table. There is an excellent selection of wines by the glass or bottles from the retail part. Great nibbles or more generous plates are of an brilliant standard.
Had a delicious meal here with my dad, we tried the house special gnocchi, recommended to us by our lovely waiter Calvin, and enjoyed the snapper, bone marrow and my favourite of the night, the blinis! Possibly made the "real" way with potato additions rather than just pure floured pancakes, which made it even more delectable :) My dad enjoyed the overly attentive wine clerk in the wine shop - who gave more recommendations. I'd skip the glass of chablis next time, and order fries - which it felt everyone but us was ordering!
Will be back to try more on the menu!
Very good service and very good wine. You choose a bottle off the shelf and take it home or drink it there! Although its not as cheap as going to a winery.
Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. Fantastic selection.
Coffee review only: soy drinkers beware. Not sure what brand they use but it tasted awful, I had to throw it away :( seems like a nice place otherwise but yeah, avoid the coffee.
Always amazing great service and don't have regular staff changes which is important
Great place! The staff knows their products and have a great approach. The wine is just amazing and so much choice
Walked in off the street from a very tempting Menu visible from the footpath. The service was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The food was wow, the quality, taste and pricing, 5***** I'll be back.
Excellent food; Excellent wine Never fails to satisfy. Though tonite we had non-existent service- might have been easier to just leave without paying the bill!
CWS ham & cheese toasties are amazing.
Perfect all the time, whatever the weather. Good thing that stays the same. What's not to like
Fantastic selection of wine and great food esp the veal and steak.
My Favourite Melbourne wine bar.
The staff are really well trained and knowledgeable. They tend to graduate from here and pop up all over the place.
Kind and knowledgeable staff. Ask about the special pour!
Quite a robust wine selection, with prices from the thirties to the hundreds.
They do a fantastic mixed winter red case too!
