41 Best Wine Bars in Philadelphia

“Not kidding. Our table of 4 ordered nearly everything in the menu. Each bite was delicious, balanced, nuanced, worldly, fresh, and inventive. We ordered a second dish of the carrots, and also the cukes. Dessert was outstanding. Interesting wines, including a chilled Croatian wine that paired well with every dish. Definitely returning. Soon! ❤️“

“Beautiful atmosphere , fun foods with great flavor“

“Great food- attentive waitstaff.“

“An extensive variety of tapas restaurant with a good selection of wines and outdoor seating area. A focus on fresh, all crafted with the finest authentic ingredients. **Wine Selection**: A curated list of wines which achieve recognition as the "Best Organic Wine List" in North America in 2023. **Ambiance**: A cozy, inviting outdoor patio with comfortable seating, perhaps with Spanish decor and ambient lighting to create a relaxing atmosphere. **Service**: Knowledgeable staff who can provide recommendations on food and wine pairings, and who offer friendly, attentive service.“

“My first French cuisine experience did not disappoint. My son and I enjoyed a lovely meal and cocktails orchestrated by the best staff - Chef Clay, Beau (our server), and Alex(Bartender). From the first course I knew this was going to be one of, if not the best, dining experiences thus far in my lifetime. I highly recommend that everyone take the time to enjoy this fine dining establishment. You will not be disappointed.“

“I’ve been to Fishtown Social many times and every experience has been great. Every wine/cocktail I’ve ordered has been very enjoyable. The whites and oranges are among the best I’ve ever had. I know I can try a few different wines here that I wouldn’t normally drink because the menu is always strong.

The service has always been friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I was just here last night catching up with some friends. Even though it was last call and close to closing, the servers were very patient and accommodating. In the past, they’ve also helped me choose from their bottle shop selection in the back.

It also has a great atmosphere - candles, a beautiful bar, and outdoor seating. Stopping by here is always a treat!“

“Great atmosphere, fun pasta options and perfect service!“

“Friendly atmosphere . Great food and great service.“

“I went to Jet Wine bar for a Halloween movie night with a friend. They were understaffed but they still went above and beyond to take care of us. Food and drinks were excellent. We watched the movie inside even though they were only serving outside. It was so kind and really an unnecessary accommodation they made for us to enjoy our time there. I'll definitely be going back!

Vegetarian options: Great veggie burger with vegan cheese too“

“This coffee shop has completely stolen my heart! Every time I walk in, I'm greeted with the kindest smiles from the baristas — you can genuinely feel how much they care about creating a welcoming space. It's the kind of place that just makes your whole day better the second you step inside!

Now let’s talk about the pandan latte. I’m honestly obsessed. It's the perfect blend of cozy, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness with that beautiful, unique flavor that you can't find anywhere else. I dream about this latte — it's that good! If you’ve never tried pandan before, trust me, this is the place to fall in love with it.

I can't recommend this coffee shop enough. Between the incredible drinks and the truly wonderful team behind the counter, it’s easily one of my favorite spots in Fishtown. Can't wait for my next visit!“

“This was me and my fiances first time at City Winery. We were greeted by the Hostess Susan who was very informative of upcoming promotions and she even offered a tour of the establishment. The wait was not long as we were seated pretty quickly. The service was phenomenal the server Cel was welcoming and had me and my fiancé laughing and enjoying ourselves from the moment we were seated. Cel made several suggestions on food as well as drinks. During the visit we learned that Cel is a bartender as well and invited us to come back which we will. The Braised Short Rib was flavorful and was a rather large portion. My fiancé had the Branzino he loved it and was ready to order one to go. Will recommend this place to all of our friends and family. We will be back for the Vivian Green show in May.“

“Everything was great! If you want a center city experience you will remember come here. It has a very sophisticated atmosphere and creative dishes. It is also somewhat off the beaten path from the circus that can be center city so you don't feel like such a tourist in your own city.“

“I have come to this place many times! As a Philly native, this place has been a great experience always! Eddie has been our server and has created an amazing environment. We are so appreciative of his care & thoughtfulness! We had a wonderful experience, and will be back again.“

“my fiance and I were in Philly (from Maine) and she treated me to Osteria for my birthday dinner. The service was amazing throughout the meal, I wish I got the servers name as he was really an incredibly friendly young man who clearly knew the menu very well. The atmosphere is wonderful and the interior is just lovely. In terms of the food, I had the wild boar bolognese which was a special that night, and it was AMAZING!! Really, all the food was impeccable, from the focaccia to our mains. Super pleased and the next time I’m in town, I will most definitely be coming back!!“

“Every time I've been here the food and drinks have been excellent and very reasonably priced, The Service is always exceptional and very friendly. It's one of the best spots in the neighborhood. Also don't sleep on the French toast or the martinis.“

“The homemade pasta is really excellent. The texture was perfectly toothsome. I got the cacio e pepperoncini (vegan option) and it was quite good, though the sauce wasn’t my favorite. It felt very oily and I’m not sure if that’s a product of veganizing the sauce. I loved the tangy spice of the pepperoncini though.

The shishito peppers were good, but fairly standard blistered peppers like I’ve had at many other restaurants. The almond / mint sauce was quite nice though.

The plates are generously portioned.

Vegetarian options: They have a few vegetarian options that are clearly labeled. They also have clear labels for dishes that can be made vegetarian or vegan.“

“Went with a friend for a last-minute reservation after another restaurant didn't work out. They got us in despite being quite busy, and the service couldn't have been better. Food was amazing - fresh and sizable enough portions to be filling even for traditional seafood. The heirloom tomato salad was amazing and the small plate sampler was perfect sizing with shrimp, scallops, crab legs and oysters.. Will def go back, and glad to have found such a great new spot!“

“Absolutely stellar place. It’s vibrant and colorful and the food is perfect. The plantains, chicken tinga tacos, and Cresta guacamole are three knockout dishes but most everything here is going to knock your brain to the back of your skull and have you speaking Spanish by the end of the meal.“

“Very nice establishment I discovered it sadly after howl at the moon closed.... for its size it is close corners at times but still great I personally luv the low key lighting for the chandler's and high top tables around to welcome random goers :) last Saturday I came and the bartender made a great old fashion tonight I stuck with a basic drink ? with in 10 -15 second not making it up I was greeted and served ? absolutely worth coming again ?

Kid-friendliness: Friendly bartenders and front door host“

“We stopped at Sally after a long drive north to Philadelphia. I had heard about this place many times but never visited. It is delicious pizza and I’m glad we decided to stop!

We got there around 11:30 and the place was completely empty. There were good vibes inside though. I loved the wall of wine bottles and the vintage stereo system behind the brunch bar. Music was great too.

We spilt two pizzas and they were both delicious. One was pepperoni, the other had sausage and some greens. I don’t think you can go wrong with their menu. The non-pizza items looked good but we did not try them.

The service was lackluster considering we were the only people in the place. They mixed up one pizza and offered to remake, but that meant we were eating at completely different times

Parking: Free street parking nearby can be tricky“

“My wife and I went to Sorellina for dinner. We both can't understand how it is possible that the place was half empty on a Saturday night. The pizza is truly excellent, from the dough to the toppings. Possibly one of the best Neapolitan style pizza we have tried in Philadelphia. The wine and dessert were also quite good. As native Italians, we highly recommend Sorellina!“

“Delicious pizza, wonderful appetizers, great drinks, excellent customer service, and awesome open kitchen. They helped make my 30th birthday perfect. 💚“

“Cool vibes, family style small plates. Rotisserie chicken and grilled oysters were phenomenal. Other highlights: chicory salad, fries, and cauliflower croquettes. We tried a few cocktails and they were creative and pretty good. Wine list is extensive.“

“Very friendly service, very pleasant surroundings. Perfect place to stop and have a light nosh. There’s ciders are quite good, but on the dry side, which I especially appreciate. They also have excellent local wines and white snack snacks. Highly recommend recommended.“

“Sat inside near the window table of 4. Great place for drinks and small plates after a family trip to the Mütter Museum. Right on the corner of a busy part of the Rittenhouse Square area. They are a wine bar (mom) but have a solid beer selection (dad) and craft cocktails (me) so everyone got what they wanted. 20% tip included even for 4.“

“Amazing atmosphere with incredible service and great food! Thank you Bellini!“

“This is our first time to Philadelphia and we are big Stallone/Rocky fans so we were excited to try this restaurant where some of Rocky Balboa and Creed was filmed. This was one of the best dining experiences with phenomenal entrees, excellent staff, beautiful atmosphere and amazing entertainment with the wait staff breaking into operatic song!! 10/10 recommend!!“

“I found this location to be nice and quiet outside of the hustle and bustle of the airport. The food selections were so refreshing compared to your typical sandwiches, french fries, burgers and pub fare that you would find at other locations. The service was attentive but do not make me feel rushed. While the food and beverage is reflective of airport pricing, the quality of the food that I received was so fresh and superior and healthier than other options that I had to write this review. I enjoyed the avocado toast and a Mediterranean plate that was with hummus, feta, olives and tzatziki along with two glasses of very enjoyable wine. Cost with tax and gratuity came to just about $80 for one person but I think it was well worth the money for the food quality and good wine. If I come through Philadelphia again I won't be sure to take pictures.“

“We ate outside at Parc mid-afternoon today to celebrate our 61st anniversary with our family, including our granddog. Our meal was luscious throughout, though we were too full for dessert❣️I must say, the highlight for me was the tomato tart, which was delicate but hearty, and totally scrumptious. Thanks for a wonderful meal, and as always, we look forward to our next visit.“

“As usual, the service was spot on and the food amazing! Keesion was attentive but not intrusive and took excellent care of our party. The drinks were great. Sean, the bar manager, ensured the guests were happy and the drinks were tasty. My favorite restaurant in the Headhouse neighborhood!“

“We ordered a medium steak at this restaurant, but both steaks we received were almost well-done. It was clearly overcooked and we pointed this out to our server. She cut into the center of the meat, acknowledged it immediately, and made me a new steak. The new meat was a satisfactory medium cooked steak. After that, the manager came and checked again to make sure there was no problem.
Overall, I think the service here is top notch. The distance between seats is appropriate, so it's not uncomfortable, and the interior is also great. I just think the quality of the steak taste wasn't as great as I expected. I think it's a great place to go to set the mood for a special day, or just have a glass of wine with a light menu. However, if your goal is to experience the best steak taste, we recommend going elsewhere.“

“food was exquisite, very interesting flavors and presentations
an incredibly fun and delicious evening
beautiful decor, welcoming atmosphere, attentive service
excellent wine list and cocktails

wish I could do 4.5 stars because the only ding is for the prices, which is more nyc than phl“

“Panorama was the perfect final stop for our group’s Dine Around through Old City. From the moment we arrived, their team impressed us with a beautifully set table, custom-printed menus (even reflecting last-minute adjustments made earlier that day), and warm, attentive service throughout. Their team was more than willing to work with us to coordinate the details of the visit and were truly wonderful to collaborate with. Our guests were blown away not just by the food and wine, but by the history and ambiance of the space. Learning about Panorama’s world-record wine collection added such a memorable touch to the experience. As a food tour company that’s guided hundreds of groups around Philadelphia, we can confidently say that Panorama stands out. And we’ll absolutely be back! Thank you Panorama!!“

“Good food at a fair price. Fabulous setting and atmosphere.“

“Excellent coffee and small but awesome selection of pastries. Unique, funky, cool vibe with a great selection of jazz music playing and LPs on sale up front. It's dark inside, dimly lit. After 4pm they have a cool happy hour and sell wine in the evenings, and have a live music room in the back.
Great coffee, snacks, vibes, friendly service.“

“My only complaint is the brussel sprouts. They were either previously frozen or way too much sauce was used. When I think of charred brussels, a crisp leaf comes to mind. These were incredibly soggy and unappealing.

Either way, the wine was great, awesome music selection, great atmosphere and the bartenders are super personable and attentive.“

“The food was exceptional. The seared Ahi tuna was the best I have ever eaten. I hope it becomes a permanent entree. Our waiter was extremely friendly, attentive and professional. This is why Ruth's Chris is one of my favorite restaurants.“

“I picked this place because I was being accompanied by a non vegan, and I was looking for interesting and creative menu items that would appeal to both of us. This place nailed it. For the month of July, they have a bunch of different hot dog specials every day. They had about 5 or 6 different varieties and all but one was also available in a vegan version. I chose the Seoul dog with kimchi, gochujang mayo, scallions and seaweed sprinkle. It was amazing. I also had a vegan gyro on homemade pita bread which was also delicious, and larger than I expected. It was the best meal I've had out in long time. My non vegan friend said the same about her meal, as well. I'm going to have to try to back there before July is over to try some other hot dog varieties. The service was friendly, informative and prompt“

“We had an amazing time. The owner Jim was very accommodating and our server Chris was amazing! Not to mention to food was great as well. I highly recommend!!“

“Great atmosphere, service, and quality 👍“
