A great neighborhood wine bar. A little of the beaten path, but well worth it. Whether you sip outside in the patio by one of the firepits, or inside listening to live music by local musicians, the atmosphere is very cozy and friendly.

Formerly "Weaver Wines", The Wine Rack is the quentessiential wine bar with an excellent selection and the staff knows their wines.

Westside Wine Cellars

This is a very cozy and upscale spot. A little pricey, but the cheese & cracker plates paired with thier unique wine selection and desserts are to die for.

Charlene's Urban Tapas & Wine Bar

If you enjoy good live jazz or blues with your wine, it doesn't get any better than this.

Cafe Fiore's Wine & Martini Bar

If you come here to sip before you've had dinner, you won't make it out without sitting down to some of the tastiest dining in town. And don't be surprised to find youself dancing the night away when your done! It can get pretty crowded inside on weekends, but if you can, sit in one of the private cabanas in the Treehouse Lounge, where the atmosphere is very romantic.
