Vanguard Wine Bar is a hidden gem on the Upper West Side, ideal for date nights or catching up with friends. The place offers a great wine selection and a good vibe, making it a fantastic spot for a casual drink or an after-work hangout. With a cozy ambiance perfect for conversation, it’s close to Lincoln Center. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and warm, always ready to help find a glass of wine that suits individual tastes. The team, including Isabel, Jacob, Manny, and David, provides excellent service and great recommendations, often sharing trivia about the towns in France where the wines come from. The bar usually has a friendly, local clientele, creating a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The music playlist is consistently excellent, ensuring the vibe remains just right. The small bites, especially the flatbreads and charcuterie board, can be quite enjoyable, and the chef prepares some great small bites. It’s best to arrive early, as it opens at 5 pm and can get packed quickly. Whether for a casual drink or a special night out, Vanguard Wine Bar is truly a go-to spot for both locals and tourists alike.
