Thank goodness for Offhand! A much-needed natural wine bar for the west side. While there are always people here, you can always find a spot to sit no problem. They do a great job of rotating and featuring natural wine, most of which are from California/the west coast — through them, I learned that my hometown has a natural winemaker I’d never known about! Definitely order the grilled cheese, it’s simple yet delicious.
( Also since I always check reviews for happy hour info — theirs is from 5-7 Monday through Saturday :) )

Popped in a few times with my wife when we were staying over the road. Unfortunately we never made it back for sandwiches - they looked great! The atmosphere is great and the staff were super attentive and gave us great recommendations of places to visit. Big up Jack! Also, the skin contact wine is phenomenal!

I've yet to find a better local spot on this side of town! My friend introduced me a couple years ago + we still love it here. Staff is always helpful when selecting wines, the food is fabulous / fantastic new lunch service w/ amazing sandwiches, the weekend crowd is fly, the music is dope, + the owners are extremely welcoming! Vibes are always immaculate.

We visited OWB after vibing on the beach. Nice chill wine bar. Enjoyed the atmosphere of old school music played on vinyl by a pair of DJs; slammin grilled cheese with prosciutto and a bottle of Cab. My first time, not my last. Keep up the solid work.

The westside wins again! Seriously, such a gem...Santa Monica/Los Angeles is lucky to have Offhand Wine Bar! The staff makes you feel welcome whether its your first or 50th time visiting and greets you with open arms every time. Incredible selection of wines from small producers with sustainable (organic/biodynamic) farming practices. Staff is super knowledgeable and more than happy to answer any questions you may have. Highly recommend making this a regular visit!

Very appealing neighborhood spot. Coffee in the AM and wine in the PM. Fun spot!
This place is such a vibe... great food.... cool people and conversations... creative food menu... the wine list is limited but it will get the job done

Love the vibe, very calm/chill environment, perfect for a date night drinks! Their drinks/wines were very unique, so it wasn’t what I expected, but overall a good taste.

I thought this place was really great. Ambiance was picturesque, drinks were really well priced during happy hour. I would come back.

Love this wine bar! I have visited a few different times on Saturday night and the vibes are always great! Vinyls on Saturdays is brilliant...

A hidden gem in Santa Monica, offering incredible wines, a passionate and knowledgeable staff, and a welcoming community. It’s our favorite spot for enjoying an intimate glass of wine or gathering with friends.
