I discovered this place a few years back and absolutely love it! Such a hidden gem on the upper west. Wine selection is great, snacks are yummy and just an overall great vibe and energy! Definitely need more places like this on the upper west that are great for date nights, catching up with friends and even an after work glass!

Great place to have an excellent glass of wine after a movie or musical performance at Lincoln center. The absence of a wall of TV's showing sports games makes it a good place to talk. But the hummus and pita crackers are best avoided. But we'll be back to try the other

We were in the city looking for a cute wine bar close to everything and this place had a good wine selection to choose from. They do have small bites to eat but it's definitely a place to go to for the wine not food! Have no complaints and really enjoyed the ambiance
Top tier location within the all the outposts they have simply based on the bartenders and staff. Great selection overall in terms of wine and food that can be enjoyed while you imbibe some vino. They do not provide table service. It is a decent sized location but you must order at the bar and sit wherever you'd like. If you're solo or with a plus one, the bar is the move. Anything more, it's definitely easier to grab a high top to enjoy the conversation. Ordering at the bar is easy and never chaotic no matter how busy they get. They rotate their menu from time to time as well as stock up on fairly similar replacements if a wine is out of stock. They'll allow you to enjoy a taste to make sure you like it.

Great wine bar with a deep backside so don't be put off by the crowded window. Staff were top notch.

Fantastic experience this Friday! We came into vanguard on a whim and had the most incredible evening. Food recommendations were on point by the wine was SUPERB!!! Made our first evening in nyc unforgettable. Cheers we will we back!
Place initially gives you good vibes when you look at it from outside. On the inside it’s nothing special. Wine is ok, food is ok…servers seem a bit overworked so they are not super

A wine bar more like a pub. We tried some nice wines and charcuterie platters. Now the prices are New York... Pleasant owner/bartender.
