30 Best Wine Bars near Lakewood

“This place was so cute. The wine & cheese was delicious“

“My friend and I went there last night for my birthday. The food was amazing!! Everything we ordered was just delicious. Meals were paced out perfectly in between. All the plates were a good portion for the shareable experience. We ordered first was the tuna crostini and the lamb hummus. Both by far amazing! The hummus was the best hummus I have ever had!! (Side note. The chef came over and told us that there is this wrap on HH during the week, we will def be back for it!) Second was the zucchini plate on top of a ricotta puree. Amazing! Not sure how he cooked it, but it was crisp and delightful! Then we had this fried Idaho potato! 🥔 literally the biggest potato I have ever seen. Topped with a feta, chives and creme fraise, sided with a homemade sriracha. Just yum!!! Then finally, aged and cooked to perfection, a hangar steak. 🥩 sliced for sharing with a salad on the side. It was amazing! The chef did a great job on presentations, food, and that steak is to die for! Also didn’t mention on yummy the cocktail menu is!!! 5/5 would visit again to try more items! I might even order that hummus tonight again for takeout! 🫶🫶🫶“

“Our evening was fun for 3 generations ages 24 to 74! The staff was friendly, kind and attentive. They went above and beyond what was asked. We had a great time playing, drinking and eating together.“

“Stopped in for brunch Sunday having never been there. This place was so cool. The bartender (Katie) was the only one working and she juggled multiple customers and demands amazingly! The food was fantastic, like so much better than I expected from a bar names “wine dive.” Portions were huge, prices were more than reasonable and the banana bread desert - wow!

Thanks for a great brunch. We can’t wait to visit again!“

“It’s impossible to say how good it is there. The food is always top notch. Any item on the menu is executed with care and technical skill. The service is always fantastic. A neurologist friend took me here many years ago as a graduation celebration from nursing school. I’ve been coming back ever since, and I’ve never had a disappointment for a night or meal. It’s always our go to on big date nights for the orchestra or concerts. The food is served quickly so you can get on with your night. Great work tonight guys, the meal was exceptional. With love-“

“Explored the creative cocktail menu and everything was excellent. Service was attentive.“

“What a nice surprise to have found this place! Staff super friendly & knowledgeable, thank you Belinda!“

“nice atmosphere plenty room“

“Recently started work in Atlanta, unfortunately Cleveland doesn’t have a delta sky club but I love this place. Great service always being welcomed inside and hope to see Kayley there! Even when I dont want to travel that little stop inside and talking to her makes the airport experience a little bit more better.“

“Highly recommended…They seem to have so much of what I enjoy eating. And portion sizes are not small plates but a satisfying meal at a reasonable price. An incredibly rare value these days. Excellent, cocktail bar style service. Exquisite, house made desserts“

“high end atmosphere. wonderful food. great service. downside.. no Chardonnay for my friend.“

“I really enjoyed my experience at La Cave du Vin. I used to go to the old location on Coventry, so the bar was set pretty high. Great wine, great apps, and a great atmosphere. Couple that with an outstanding location and great servers, and you have a great experience. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Threw a fabulous book launch party in the burgundy room at the Koffie Cafe. The owners, Soly and Eli, were so kind to let us film a book trailer in the coffee shop! We rented the burgundy room to throw a book launch party and share the trailer on the three televisions in the room. Everything looked great, and Soly was on site to make sure we had everything we needed. This is such a quaint location and the owners were so gracious. I highly recommend this location for your next event.“

“Absolutely charming, kitschy, interesting and fun fun fun! The food menu is seasonal, thus constantly changing every few months. The options are wonderful, whether you want to try a flight of something or just order a dish or a glass all to yourself. And the staff there is incredibly engaging, charming, funny and top-notch! We will definitely be back to dine in again and may even participate in a class/event there. A fantastic hidden gem!“

“Great venue with nice outdoor dining area. Small but delicious menu. Very good service by experienced wait staff. It's a little more expensive than comparable venues, but we still choose to go here when in the area.“

“Here is your promised review! 😂 Mary was such a fun host. We had quite the rowdy bunch and it did not phase her one bit. What a fun and unique experience! We will recommend Your Wine Cellar again and again.“

“I've had the pleasure of visiting Gather FOOD & DRINK twice, and each experience has been fantastic! The staff is incredibly welcoming, the food is delicious, and the ambiance is perfect for relaxing. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!“

“Visited Vino di Luca on a Friday night to see the new-owner change. Went at 7ish pm. Always hard to park in Olmsted falls on a busy night but we found a spot as someone left and walked a bit to the wine bar.

Outside patio was full, which is what the owner would want on a beautiful Friday night! A single guitar player/singer was performing, not overly loud, so conversation was also loud. It looked to be meeting Friday fun and happy hour vibes.

We went inside and got two bar of seats from exiting customers. Although it was clear the bartender was busy and had been a few hours,c she was friendly and smiledva greeting, and served us fast

We are Appassimento wine fans, including Colisimo, and it's rare to see it by the glass (first had it Lockkeepers and then it Julia's in Willoughby), so we felt it's a good sign for this wine bar

Prices are reasonable too. Found a bottle of Austin Hope I've paid 60+ for $50, and the checkout clerk said that they can't keep it in stock..... So others have found value too. I didn't get time to inquire if they have a corkage fee for having it on site, but expect they do.

We didn't eat, but want to go back. All in all, the bill was very reasonable for the glass pours and the shelves stocked with nice variety, leaning to French choices. If you know wine, you'll find something.

We'll go back and try again.“

“I’d like to keep this the best kept secret, but the tomahawk veal Marsala is, hands down, the finest meal I have ever eaten on Cleveland! Combine this with a cozy atmosphere, a friendly and efficient staff, and there’s no need to go anywhere else for an incredible meal!“

“We recently hosted a bridal shower at Tartine Bistro, and it was wonderful from start to finish. The entire team was warm, attentive, and made the event feel effortless.

The food was outstanding, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about it. A special thank you to Jen, the event coordinator, who truly went above and beyond. She was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and made sure every detail was taken care of.

We couldn’t have been happier with our experience and highly recommend Tartine Bistro for both private events and dining!“

“First time there, can’t wait to return. Everyone was friendly, good service, great food reasonably priced. ?“

“This bar has great potential. We went last December (2024) and absolutely LOVED the decor and atmosphere. It’s not a huge place but it’s clean and has a great vibe. The downside…overpriced and the food selections are skim. We ordered a turkey sandwich and it came with 1 slice of turkey on it. Hopefully they’ve worked out the kinks since then. Overall great place!“

“Everything was incredible!! Starting with our wonderful server Hallie, all the way to the chef who prepared something for our daughter that wasn’t even on the menu! The food was delicious, every course. We can’t wait to go back!“

“We had drinks and dinner before the Shane Gillis concert on April 11th 2025!! Food and service was amazing!! Great vibes right before a show!! We will be back again soon!“

“Picked up some Lakeshore Lager from Meijer, good stuff ! Will definitely get more .“
