About Rake Wine Bar

Rake Wine Bar is a cozy and high-quality wine bar with a welcoming atmosphere, ideal for dates or casual gatherings. It is connected to a wine store, which shows in their attention to theme and decor, especially in the bathroom with plants and thoughtful details. The bar offers an excellent selection of wines at a great price point, including chilled reds. Visitors can enjoy a wine flight, featuring three 3oz pours from a curated list of sparkling, white, orange, and red wines. The glass menu is reasonable and fairly priced, making it easy to choose a drink without feeling overwhelmed. The outdoor seating area is lovely in the summer, with lots of foliage and overhead lights, perfect for relaxing on a quieter street off 1st Ave. Inside, the AC is quite nice, and the tables and chairs are clean. Although they don't have a happy hour, the overall prices remain accessible. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly, happy to recommend options and bond with guests at the bar. The restaurant is a good spot for a quick glass of wine while waiting for a reservation at nearby places like Lucien, or as a destination to meet friends.
