50 Best Wine Bars near Corte Madera

“No air-conditioning, so we went outside after we ordered and sat on the sidewalk with car exhaust and motorcycles roaring by. They have a good selection of tasty wines and the charcuterie platter presented well with a nice selection of meats and cheeses. Our first server didn't know anything about wine and confessed to only drinking reds so she brought over a second person who knew more.“

“Fantastic bookstore, with amazing inventory, staff and cafe. One of my all time favorites.“

“Hidden gem in San Francisco!

This place is cozy, intimate, and friendly. Book a fireplace seat if you can.

The wine selection is incredible, both bottles, as well as by the glass.

But the real thing that makes SF Wine Society special is their curated flights, which change about every month or so. Great way to expand your palate and try new wines that may become your next favorite.

Friendly and attentive service as well.“

“This is the best wine bar I've ever been to. Live music, incredible food, stellar wine list, amazing atmosphere. I will be bringing dates here for sure.“

“We came here for happy hour on a Monday evening and we were one of the only customers in a nearly empty restaurant, so service was pretty efficient. We almost had the entire staff catering exclusively to us. I'd say the restaurant kind of feels like a cross between a bistro bar and a 50s restaurant with dim lighting. Once we took a look at the menu, of course we had to get a wine flight.
Between 2 of the $13 wine flights, we ordered a Melon de Bourgogne, Merlot, Gamay, and then we were recommended a Rose Grenache, and an an orange wine, which was interesting.

$ 7 Chicken Liver Mousse:
okay! It was topped with chives, served with cornichons.

$10 Jamon Serrano Croquetas:
good! definitely fresh, because it came piping hot. I had to cut it in half and let it steam for a few minutes.

$19 Octopus Carpaccio - pickled capers and pickled peppers, pomegranate:
great! very tangy taste, get it if you like sour flavors

$29 Duck Leg Confit - Grimaud farm duck leg with gratin dauphinois, salad, duck jus:
excellent! crispy skin on duck leg with green salad and radishes helped lighten it up.

When we got our bill, it came tucked inside of a French paperback, which I thought was a cute touch. We got full from happy hour, though two items were not from the happy hour menu. I give Amelie a 9.2/10“

“The exceptional service is enough to put The Patio on my favorite list 😊“

“Amazing. Even one of our waiter was amazing. They forgot my sardines and they gave me mussels. Both were AMAZING. Drinks were amazing AND the staff were amazing as well. I dont usually leave reviews unless it is worth my time. Definitely a place to go“

“Everything is Very Good🥰🥰“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

“A nice wine bar with good easy-drinking wines and friendly staff.

We came in just in time for Wednesday’s trivia night, which made for a fun friendly atmosphere!

We had the empanada ($8) which was ok. Overall nice pre-dinner place!“

“Hidden gem of Sausalito! It’s a small scale restaurant where the chef if cooking in front of you simply amazing Michelin-3-star-level food. Don’t come here just for caviar that you can simply buy at a store. Come for the chef’s amazing cooking!“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“Super cute wine bar just across the street from Cafe Zoetrope. We were there for a calligraphy class but my daughter was feeling ill so we sat outside for a bit. The sommelier was kind and empathetic; he offered us waters and was talking to her to make her feel less embarrassed. While we were waiting, he even helped a lady park her car. So while we didn't have wine or food, the service is top notch and we'll go back!“

“What an amazing and eclectic wine 🍷 list. Wines you won’t find anywhere else. Great food menu too.“

“Great wines and cool atmosphere“

“Awesome and women-owned! Let's bask in the light of this great community of women in the Bay! Love this place!“

“Such a great hidden gem in the neighborhood. We came by for a glass of wine and ended up with signing up for the wine club!
Great venue for live music and socializing- great wines of course. I appreciate that the founder and staff are here to connect with the community. Cheers!🍷“

“A Cozy Haven with Live Jazz

Vics Winehouse is a true gem—warm, inviting, and effortlessly charming. The selection of wines is fantastic, the music is the best in the city. The owner is incredibly friendly and she sings too! She put her heart and soul into this amazing place, always making us feels like home. We’ve always been treated with respect and kindness.
We go there not only for drinks and conversations, but also to enjoy real Jazz music ( so hard to find in the city these days) As live jazz melodies fill the air, the cozy atmosphere becomes even more magical. What I really love about Vics Winehouse is that it never disappoints. You get exactly what you would expect, every time. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxed evening with friends, your significant other, or if you come alone, you can make new friends.“

“What an intimate special dinning experience !“

“The food is always delicious, and the waitstaff is friendly. There is a nice eclectric crowd. The owners are impressive -- a family owned business (something that is disappearing in San Francisco). I love this place and am so happy to have them in my neighborhood.“

“Yeah this place rocks. Would totally 100% come back here. Bartender was incredible totally has a cool SF classic north beach bar vibe. Lots of room for everyone and a spectacular outside seating to just have a beer and watch the world go by. Come here for a wholesome local experience or for a fun dive bar vibe.

Had the ham sandwhich holy crap. For a dive bar it was kinda perfect. Bread that was toasted perfectly with a delicious jam. Come here.“

“Sorella is one of our favorite restaurants in SF. We're moving out in March, so we had to come back to it one last time, and, as with all the other times we have been there, it did not disappoint. 5 star service 5 star food and drinks 5 star setting What more could you ask? Shoutout to Jocyln for bringing us an extra treat at the end of the night and for being a great waitress. :) Timo“

“Perfect neighborhood spot to gather and unwind. Wine selection affordable and awesome and the 'little plates' are wonderful (meatballs FTW).“

“The food was amazing I've never had Mediterranean food before and this place made my first time especially wonderful, I've never had dates before but the dates with goat cheese, pistachios and honey were absolutely invigorating I recommend this place also they have a lot of wine and beer options a good place to start the night off in or go on a date I know I'll probably make this a once a week for me“

“Internos isn’t just a bar—it’s a place that feels like home. It’s where friends gather, where familiar faces always seem to circle back, and where the atmosphere is as warm as it is welcoming. The heart of it all is Tony. He’s one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet, and his genuine warmth makes every visit special. Honestly, I’d come back just to chat with him, but the drinks alone would keep me returning too. The beer list is excellent—great options on tap plus a thoughtful selection of cans—and the wines cover the full spectrum, so there’s something for everyone. It’s our favorite spot, hands down.“

“Loved the vibe here, the place was buzzing with people, and the atmosphere was lively but still comfortable. Outdoor seating is a huge plus if the weather’s on your side.
We ordered the chicken skewers, which came with warm bread and a flavorful sauce that paired beautifully with a glass of wine. Everything was tasty, well-balanced, and perfect for a casual evening.
Definitely a spot I’d come back to for good food, great drinks, and a fun atmosphere.“

“The best wine bar hands down! Kelly and Giselle are not only friendly but also curate the most amazing experiences. We love special cheeses and they always make sure to add them to our cheese board. We are also members of the wine club where they have the best parties for members!“

“The Press Club is a go-to venue for me. As someone in BD, I host many events for executives and they’ve always been great to work with. Great space, great service, great food as well. I’m impressed the quality has stayed so high over the years.“

“My significant other and I were travelling down Hyde St on the cable car and passed this wine bar. As wine lovers, we knew we had to go back! What a treat! There is a great selection of delicious dry European wines. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting. Everyone in the bar including the owner were very friendly and helpful with other great recommendations in the area. I highly recommend visiting if you are a wine enthusiast.“

“We heard so much about this place, we came over from San Francisco specifically to try it out! What a perfect spot to have a taste of some amazing wines and an array of incredible cheeses and crackers. You walk inside and it’s a little shop with a bar counter on the right. You order what you like and sit outside and enjoy the beautiful view!! I am so looking forward to coming back on my next visit. Make it a point to stop in, you won’t be disappointed!!“

“The best! Great hospitality; Lalo is a great cook!“

“Mili Wine Bar in the Financial District has a really cool, stylish vibe that immediately draws you in. The space feels thoughtfully designed, balancing modern touches with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy your time.

One of the standout features for me was their non-alcoholic options, which I thought was amazing. It’s refreshing to see a wine bar offer thoughtfully curated alternatives, making the space feel inclusive and considerate for everyone, not just wine drinkers.

The atmosphere is fun and cozy, with an intimate energy that works well for both casual catch-ups and more intentional evenings out. It’s lively without being overwhelming, and the setting encourages conversation and connection.

Service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. The staff made the space feel approachable and easygoing, which really complemented the vibe of the bar.

Overall, Mili Wine Bar is a great spot in the Financial District with a unique offering, a warm atmosphere, and a cool, inviting energy. Definitely a place worth checking out if you’re looking for something a little different and thoughtfully done.“

“The view is comfortable and the dishes are exquisite. It is highly recommended.“

“My wife and I return each year on the anniversary of our first meeting at California Wine Merchant. Most recently, the owner Greg, took our photo and gave us a complimentary glass of Champagne to mark the occasion. He’s a great guy and his bar is a great place to meet up with friends, or maybe the love of your life.“

“This was a really very good place. The pizzettas were fresh and made with high quality ingredients. We tried the hazelnut pizza and it was very delicious and interesting. They also offer homemade sausages, and the salads were creative and something different. The service was great. The place itself is quite tiny and small, but cozy.“

“I must say i had high hopes but the meal was tasteless but my friends had too much salt. I wanted to like it. Wont return, wont recommend. ☹“

“The downstairs lounge is an amazing space to host private dinners. There is no noise interference from the outside, the bank vault feel gives is a very special atmosphere, and the staff were very efficient and friendly in looking after us. For private events in SF, this is now our go-to option! Oh, and the cocktails were absolutely outstanding - many participants told me that!“

“The food was flavourful and the texture was just right. We ordered the Peking duck and soy chicken. Our kids loved the chicken with a side of steamed rice. The chef enjoys strong flavours and skillfully cut the chicken like butter in front of our table. The atmosphere is casual with an Asian-fusion trendy vibe.“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. I am a business owner a few doors down and I wandered in with a friend after work one night about a month ago. We were met with such incredible warmth from the staff and the environment itself, even without a reservation. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Josh, only to find out later that he is the owner. He made excellent recommendations on everything from our drinks to dessert. The bar didn’t feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant and guests, but rather was lively hub frequented by kitchen and serving staff and warmed by a smoldering wood fire. The coziest. We swooned for the poke appetizer, complete with house-made toasted, but not crisp, blue corn tortillas. The pork shoulder tacos—also to die for. I have to say though, that the star on the sidelines was the beans. I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way about beans…but I digress. Josh bounced around from table to table all night, never letting a single ball drop, making every guest feel like *his* guest. A pot de crème sealed the evening in perfect bliss. I’m back a month later with the same friend, eating different and somehow even more incredible entrees: ribeye, halibut and a rhubarb crisp for dessert. I scarcely ever take the time to write a review as I prefer to vote with my $ and my feet, but I simply couldn’t eat here again without taking the time to sing it’s praises. Eat here.“

“Valentine’s Day dinner, got sat 30 min early, which was nice. However the food and the experience was amazing, granted a restaurant of this caliber has its short comings when compared to the value. I will say the 4/5 plates we had were amazing and exceptional. Dessert ? Meh .“

“Lovely friendly Italian wine bar and delicious restaurant. Fresh innovative salads, pastas and main courses. Highly recommended.“

“A quaint, maybe even unassuming, Italian restaurant, that has a top notch kitchen and service. The menu cycles, but I have never been disappointed. Pizzas are outstanding, be they breakfast or lunch, and the all of the baked goods have clearly been perfected. Don't miss this spot, especially if you're a coffee connoisseur.“

“Affordable price, great taste“

“Good service, delicious food, nice atmosphere, nothing to complain about“

“The food and wine are fantastic!“

“Great atmosphere, impeccable service, friendly & welcoming staff. Most of all, great food. This is our second time and it didn’t disappoint. We’re visiting from SoCal in Orange County. Thank you!“

“The food is artisan caliber, the atmosphere is welcoming and intimate, and our family GOTO!! ❤❤❤❤❤“

“Brilliant flavor combinations and beautiful presentation. The gaeng bumbai aubergine has the the right amount of heat without being overpowering.“

“Highly recommend Best coffee in San Francisco ☕️“

“Of all the Indian restaurants in the Bay Area that I tried, this restaurant has the best food imo. I discovered this place by chance on the way to Napa. After having a full meal, I ordered another meal for takeout because the food was so good. I've been here twice now. It's exceptionally good.“
