38 Best Wine Bars near New Brighton

“Ordered a classic Rachel and side salad. Sandwich filling was plentiful and came with side of 1000 island fir dipping but was a little on the dry side. Side salad was standard not outstanding but fresh. Spent a minute with table mates guessing the purple ingredient which was onion not a beet.“

“Great service and food!!!!“

“Milly’s is an absolute gem in Minneapolis! The wine selection is impressive, with a great variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options that catered perfectly to our group. The food, especially the charcuterie boards, was delicious and beautifully presented. Don’t miss out on the French onion soup! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. A special shoutout to Timothy, the sommelier, who was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us pick the perfect pairings for our meal. And the owner, Brandon, was so welcoming and personable, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

“Had a very nice meal at Herbst with friends from out of town. We enjoyed the beautiful space and thoughtful menu. The cocktail options were especially great, with categories for style of drink and full, low, and zero proof options within each.
A few misses on the menu and a fairly slow service were the only small things that took away from the overall experience. Looking forward to coming back for another visit.“

“I’ve never been disappointed at this restaurant. Interesting wines and great food.“

“This was my first wine tasting experience and I must say it did not disappoint! The atmosphere is excellent, and I definitely plan on coming back when there is love music. Staff was extremely kind and knowledgeable. Tried the "Making America Drunk Again" flight and really enjoyed both the Cabernet Sauvignon and the Pinot Noir.“

“I just spent a great evening listening to live music at In Vino Veritas. Lovely, cozy, unpretentious, welcoming, fantastic staff, huge wine selection, THC products if that's your thing. I believe I've just found a new favorite place!“

“Love this place. I feel comfortable going there by myself and just sitting at the bar.“

“Best pasta in the Twin Cities?????? Cavatelli with Rabbit Sugo was marvelous. We swapped and tried each others and I was equally floored by all of them. Wonderful service. Our server was friendly and helpful. Delicious drinks and cheesecake for dessert (ate immediately, not pictured). Absolutely will come back- hopefully soon!“

“The staff were extremely friendly, attentive and gave great recommendations. We enjoyed everything we ordered and would highly recommend going here again. The volume of the place was just fine for conversation and the I enjoyed the ambiance.“

“-Vinai MN- My friend and I wanted to try Chef Yia's restaurant due to being homesick and wanting hmong food. We were met with such great service and sat where we could see the work area. Chef Yia was so kind and started us off with a complimentary appetizer, rice Curry balls. We ordered and the food came so fast. As soon as I took a bite, my eyes started to get teary because it tasted like food from home. I started fanning myself to not cry which Chef Yia saw and asked if the food was too spicy. We then started to explain that we were not from MN and were feeling a bit homesick and how the food reminded us of home. Chef Yia then said, here let's do this. He returned with a pot of beef soup that consisted of mushrooms, bamboo shoots, beef and green onion and white rice and shared that this dish was one of those dishes that we would eat at gathering and events. We we so shocked and so at loss with his kindness and compassion. We both took a bite and immediately lighted up. It tasted like my mom's cooking 💓. As we were nearing the end of our meal, Chef Yia told us not to stuff ourselves too full and surprised us with a complimentary dessert which further awed us. We were so lost at words for Chef Yia's kindness, generosity and comfort. We chose the Lava Cake and it was soooo good! I normally don't like sweets but we devoured this 😋. 1000/10 would recommend.“

“I love the ambiance (fresh, just right music, delicious and creative food, friendly people). I love the markit too - and browsing while sipping my wine or coffee. And I love the live music on sat!“

“Honestly, really flavorful and unique food for a decent price. Google says $50-100 but for our table, we were closer to $30/each for entrees. Alot of options as low as $15 though. And the burger is a super good deal for the money ($16), it's super cheesey and fantastic. I will be back!“

“We had a fantastic date night at Joan’s! Highly recommend! The food was incredible. Perfect pacing, portions, wine pairings, and the flavors have you closing your eyes to experience each bite. One of the best meals we have ever had. Our server was thoughtful and friendly. Great dining atmosphere. We will be back!“

“We went for the first time yesterday and we loved it! The food was delicious and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. Great service. We will be back soon!“

“Love this place. Kitchen is open late. Drinks are tasty. Food is excellent. Staff is so friendly. 😁“

“What a great setting for the first meeting of our food review group. Attentive service, great cocktails, and decent food, all in a beautiful lounge-y intimate setting. Staff could not be more perfect.“

“Food and ambiance is outstanding, one of the most romantic restaurant in the twin cities. The crab cakes and filet mignon were perfect. Mia was our server and went above and beyond, and the staff overall was very accommodating and welcoming. Highly recommend for dinner or drinks“

“Nice little hole in the wall spot on Central Ave. Busy street makes for easy access by foot, but not car. So it’ll appeal to some but maybe not all. Drinks were great! The apricot old fashioned was phenomenal. Didn’t get food because there wasn’t much of a menu, but smaller items to snack on. Not really a dinner spot but definitely a romantic date spot with great drinks and service. $4 Hamms for HH is excellent.

Parking: If you are a driver, park on side streets and walk.“

“Have a variety of drinks other than beer. Also have nonalcoholic beer.“

“Duet is in the lobby of the Daymark. Service was pretty fast and very nice! Coffee was decently mid though, the maple cinnamon latte just tasted like a latte. There’s not much nearby, but it’s definitely a nice convenient coffee spot if you live in the daymark. They do have lots of options!“

“This coffee shop is adorable! Get the lavender London Fog, it might be the best ever!“

“We had a fabulous dinner! Our waiter was Patrick who made our evening grand! Highly recommend this steakhouse!“

“Greeted upon arrival and served with the utmost professionalism and care. The food?! Oh my goodness, please try the wings! We had Caribbean Jerk and Korean BBQ and they were dynamite. Based on the rest of our food- which was SO good, I’m sure the other wings will not disappoint either! Pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem. Will be returning to try more items on the menu!“

“The coffee and treats are excellent, great staff, and a lovely space in the atrium to sit for a few.“

“Not a bad place overall. I had a Chicken sandwich with pesto, and it was pretty good. Decent amount of food and pretty good quality overall. Nice outdoor seating area and it seems like it would be an excellent place to grab a work lunch with one or two people.“

“It was awesome! The service was great! Staff went out of their way to accommodate all 11 of us! Everyone that works there seemed happy and ready to help! I graded a 4 on food..only because out of PERSONAL preference I didn't like my food, BUT someone else at our table had the same thing and LOVED IT! And a 3 for atmosphere because it was a bit loud and hard to visit ..but again that's a personal preference...Would we go back?MOST DEFINITELY“

“I've come here for years. I recently visited after not coming and was pleasantly surprised! They've gone through a renovation and it looks so open and airy. Took my grandma for Happy Hour and we enjoyed everything about it. The service was AMAZING! The pizza always hits and we tried the bruschetta and once again a hit! The house white zin was really good also. My grandma had her go to, dirty martini with extra olives and she enjoyed hers as well. Our bill came and my Grandma asked if I wanted to come back next week. The bathrooms weren't the cleanest but by no means dirty so go ahead and use it, if you need to! My grandma and I will be back really soon!!

Dietary restrictions: I think this will work!

Parking: The parking is across the street and kind of hard to find if you aren't looking.

Kid-friendliness: Bring the Kiddos

Wheelchair accessibility: In the dining area maybe not the bar“

“So 49ER Day party at Crave Rooftop was a lot of fun and the food was delicious.

I was pretty surprised at how extensive their menu was. Oftentimes, when restaurants have a lot of items and different types and styles, it isn't always good.

But when I tell you my bison burger and wings were very tasty. There was lots of flavor and made just the way I wanted. I don't like my wings swimming in sauce, so I asked for light sauce on my wings, and they listened, and it was just how I like.

Their menu even has a gluten sensitive menu as well as a plant based menu. I was impressed with their options.

If you find yourself in downtown Minneapolis, you should definitely check them out. You will not be disappointed!“

“Overall
Good food, but wasn't particularly memorable.

Firecracker Shrimp
Crunchy, soft and well-cooked. Sauce was like orange chicken but spicier and tangier. Came out a bit cool since I timed it with my entrée. Good if you want salty-sweet shrimp, but I wouldn't reorder.

Margherita Sushi
A fun twist with lime and Tajín! Tart and savory. Enjoyable, but a one-time try.

Chicken Wings
Crispy, flavorful, and a great size. Juicy meat, cooked perfectly. A definite reorder.

Smoked Manhattan
Smoky, smooth, and delicious. The "crave" ice cube was a cool detail.“
