50 Best Wine Bars near Matthews

“Great people to work with.“

“The owners are great. The wine is always incredible.“

“Hosted a Milestone birthday on 9/13/25 with 50 people and it was AMAZING! From the initial planning all the way to the night of the party, Bobby, Scotty and the entire staff were impeccable! Everyone who attended is STILL talking about how great it was. I HIGHLY recommend for a Private gathering. We love Stumptown Station!“

“Nicole was fantastic. Awesome personality etc We look forward to seeing her again.“

“We always have a good experience. The food is good and the staff is great“

“Excellent food & service. Gorgeous courtyard with jazz guitarists 2 Wednesdays a month from 7-9.“

“Definitely a special occasion spot. Their wine collection is exceptional, which is to be expected. I initially ordered a Bordeaux that I did not care for and we were able to order another bottle with no issues. My only complaint is we asked to keep the price comparable and they sent a $20 more expensive bottle. I ordered the filet and it was cooked perfectly. We were there for a birthday and they sent a complimentary champagne flute for all 9 of us in our party. Amazing. I like the interior of this location more than the others. But no exterior compares to the Dilworth location.“

“Such a cool hidden spot! They have an incredible wine selection and such a lowkey vibe with unpretentious indoor and outdoor seating. This has absolutely become a regular spot for my friends and I to gather.

Pro tip: if you go on a Sunday, you can easily walk over to Bird Pizzeria and grab yourself a to-go Caesar salad and then ask for some killer wine recommendations at Substrate that compliment the salad.“

“Great atmosphere with great service.“

“Beautiful garden setting.“

“We had the pleasure of Dining at Dean’s on Father’s Day 6/15/25. Our Waiter “Q”was phenomenal. The food was a 10/10 and service far exceeded our expectation!“

“Such an incredible spot!! If you’re looking for something local, unique to Charlotte, while also being QUALITY this is your place! I don’t know about you but I’m so tired of chains, I want a passion project of a place that’s done with excellence. If you want that too, look no further than Mother of Dragons!“

“Wine dinners are the best!!! Love the locals vibe and food is top notch“

“Frenchy’s has such a great vibe! The wine selection is fantastic, and it attracts a great crowd - more sophisticated than most Southend establishments. Prices are reasonable, though you can purchase some more rare/expensive wines if that’s your thing. They have a large and varied selection of beer, as well.“

“Very cool place and good service with the good wines!“

“Enjoyed the winter, “shareables” and time on the patio!“

“Really enjoyed the staff and wine selections. They were very helpful! Food was yummy and the private room was perfect for our party. They even convinced me to try a sweet red ( German dornfelder) that was delicious!“

“My friend and I had a wonderful Sunday afternoon get-together at the Tap and Vine in Indian Trail! Great food, Proseco, atmosphere and wonderful service by Abraham. We'll be back!“

“If you’re looking for a delicious sweet you won’t make for yourself this is the place!! I got and the Asian chicken sandwich. Best sandwich I’ve ever had. The ice cream cookie sandwiches are worth it all!!“

“Went for the first time last night. Lovely service from the two ladies at the park (one of them sings spontaneously…loved it) there was also a very knowledgeable man who assists with buying the wines. Very friendly. Our bread, meat and cheese combo was delicious. Atmosphere was perfect including Tupac on the soundtrack. I will for certain, return.“

“Neat little place -- love the swings!“

“A great place for a Friday night dinner….delicious seared flounder with lentils & asparagus 😋“

“Had a fantastic charcuterie plate, delicious wine and an outstanding dessert at Grapes. The staff/owner are just lovely, and the vibe is cozy. There was a bit of live music that was great but not overpowering to where you couldn't have a conversation. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu and enjoy another great bottle of wine.“

“This place is fantastic. 5 stars. Beautiful food, service, and atmosphere.“

“If I could give the service 10 stars I would! Talia, Leigh, and Kash are the absolute best, the food is impeccable, the vibes are astonishing. You cannot go wrong here!!!! And Monday and Tuesday night after 8pm they do a bottle of wine and a board of bruschetta for $25… if I could live here I would.“

“The vibe is awesome the good was amazing it was fresh and just the perfect amount of. The drink was great, the back patio was super quaint and cute perfect for a girls night or date night the indoor bar was cute and the outdoor patio was great for a dinner or brunch with friends.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This place has it all! Mondays are a blast with Music Bingo – the perfect way to kick off the week. The drinks are top notch 🍹, the menu is phenomenal (seriously, everything we tried was delicious 😋), and the energy is always on point. Come the weekend, the dance floor comes alive 💃🕺 with parties that keep everyone moving. A spot that nails food, fun, and music – can’t wait to come back!“

“We held my daughter’s celebratory graduation dinner from UNCC at Barcelona Wine Bar this past weekend, and it was absolutely perfect! I planned the event far in advance with Tiana, their Sales & Events Manager, and she was thorough, communicative and handled it all like a pro, including a last minute change to the menu that she texted to me (smart). She arranged for printed menus with the event name (lovely detail!) and because they can’t include mussels, her favorite, on an event menu (understandable), they surprised us and sent her some anyway on the house. Our main server (I’m blanking on her name so sorry we love you so much!!) and our bar servers, Morgan and Justin (who we kept busy 🤣), should win personality of the year awards for their wit, humor, charm and skill (for instance, Morgan wowed us with his tapas plate stacking ability and made sure to holler in my Mama’s good ear when he spoke 🤣). It was great fun, and the food was DELISH!! Highly recommend for events and also looks like a fun place to just hang out!“

“The food is so flavorful and delish! Everytime we come it is wonderful!“

“I absolutely love this place! I go when I need some relaxing me time, when I need to do some work, or for some quality time with special people in my life. The coffee and pastries are so delicious and the workers are so friendly and great. My coffee always tastes just right! I always like to try different coffee shops and this one is by far one of my favorite ones!“

“My go to coffee shop in Charlotte. The brown sugar rosemary latte is well done and I’m obsessed with the breakfast sandwiches. I love trying the seasonal specials. It’s always something unique and tasty and the staff is very warm and friendly. Love this place!“

“Sweet potato Ravioli and broccolini were excellent!“

“Get the El Cubano, it was fantastic!“

“We had a fantastic dinner here and loved our server, Kelsey! She was super nice, informative, and we enjoyed chatting with her. The food was next level. While we’ve been here before, this time we tried the restaurant week menu and each upgraded our entrees to the chefs choice. Delicious doesn’t cover it! Don’t skip on adding a side of lobster Mac n cheese. You won’t regret it :)“

“Yesterday I organized a dinner for my family, food was very delicious and tasty. My all family told me that their staff was very professional and kind. Highly Recomended💯“

“We went to Dressler’s tonight for my husband’s Birthday. We had never been but wanted to try it since we loved their old Dogwood concept. Michelle was our waitress and truly made the evening so special. She was so knowledgeable around the menu and so attentive and fun. The food was exceptional. I had the waygu flank special and he had the 16oz ribeye. The shrimp appetizer was a great way to start and the apple crisp was a perfect ending to the meal. We were so excited to see the manager from the old Dogwood concept working there. She is so great too. Thank you for having such an amazing space that can make nights so memorable.“

“I love this place! Vin Master is a go-to for us - super casual adn low key but a great vibe. Awesome service (shout out to Taylor and Kent - and Rochelle of course), great food and wine list. I recently had two large-ish groups for celebrations at Vin Master and everyone had the best time. Highly recommend!“

“The service was fantastic here and the atmosphere was perfect! Our server Cole really took care of us while we were celebrating our friend’s dinner. 11/10 recommend highly!!! Being pregnant I can only have mocktails and Kyle served me the best ones ever!!! Peach lavender was my favorite! Price is just right too! Fun place!“

“Love the atmosphere. Great customer service m. Good food and the coffee was out of this world. Will be coming back with friends. 1st time I have been here“

“We hosted a leadership team gathering for my company in the loft and LOVED it. Two separate rooms up stairs were great for small groups to mingle and gather. Downstairs was great for people wanting to watch the game. And we had plenty of space on the large loft when we all came together.

Plenty of food our group in the package pricing and drinks and variety were excellent!

Looking forward to more events here.“

“Really nice outdoor fun with good drinks“

“Quickly has become a favorite go to place. Nice staff and great selection of beer food and wine.“

“This place is fantastic! Went there last night for a networking meeting and was thoroughly impressed. The food, decor, and the live band were so great! Will definitely come back in the future just to hang out, meet for business, or to grab a great bite. The staff was so nice and had me in stitches! A true must visit!“

“Great food, great atmosphere. Make sure to check this place out!“

“A mystery. Outstanding ambiance, looks and feels like nice casual cafes we ate at in Milan and Tuscany. Once inside can't believe it's in an outdoor mall in NC. Friendly service. Chicken marsala with mushrooms as good as it gets. Hearts of palm salad not on many menus but was delightful. The customers seemed to be enjoying a relaxed, quality dining experience without the pretense of a fancy place or buzz of a large busy place. The mystery-why was it only half full on a Friday night?“

“We arrived near closing but the waitstaff didn’t seem to mind. Excellent service, food and cocktails! Highly recommend for a romantic dinner for two!❤️“

“The food and service was great, cozy vibe with great decor and music!“

“my FAVORITE pizza spot!!! super cute inside, great wine & UNBELIEVEABLY GOOD PIZZA“

“Cool bar, chill atmosphere and great Camp North End location!“

“I stumbled upon Exotica at an India Food Festival in Charleston, SC. I’ve been on an Indian Food kick so I had to go see what this festival had to offer. Exotica had an impressive spread of food that was well displayed esthetically and from a food quality and safely standpoint. I’m a kitchen manager and caterer so that stands out and matters to me. They had the longest of a lot of long lines which told me it should be good. I was right. It was top notch. They far exceeded my expectations for the event. I didn’t know what most of the menu was so I looked everything up while I waited and made a list on my hand. My favorites of what I chose were the Samosa Chat, Onion Samosa and the Madurai Malli Dosa. Everything was amazing though. Sooo many flavors!! I’ll definitely be going to their restaurant the next time I’m near Charlotte. 10000% Now that I look at the full menu I see so much more that I need to try. Definitely a happy little accident finding this gem. 20/10 recommend :)“
