Avondale Wine & Cheese

We are so glad we found this place on vacation! We ended up going twice. The service, charcuterie options, and wine were all top notch. The people there are so friendly.... Just a great place to hang out and enjoy wine and conversation. Highly recommend!

A true 5-star experience across the board, especially the wonderful staff. There's not a better place in Charleston to get a cost-effective, fantastic glass of wine and charcuterie. My wife and I strategically take our uppity friends & family here and wildly impress. Would give 6 out of 5 stars if possible.

Cannot believe I didn’t know about this place sooner. My friend brought me here for the first time and I’m so looking forward to come back. It’s got several cool little nooks and sections that are so unique. I think the owners got great taste and variety!
They were running a teacher appreciation special that day so we got $5 glasses to start. We split a 6 choice charcuterie plate, everything was delicious! The warm pita and regular baguette bread you get is a nice touch!
I think his name was Hank, who took care of us at the bar, friendly guy! We finished off with some Prosecco that is made by a local Charlestonian so cheers to that.
This is a great spot in Avondale for date night, girls night or even solo night! Cheers 🥂

What a wonderful surprise. We came from Kansas City, Missouri for a brief vacation. We looked up wine tastings and happened on this place. We loved it! Highly encourage people to enjoy a special experience at Avondale Wine and Cheese.

We hosted a couple's shower at Avondale Wine and Cheese in January and the entire experience was amazing from initial contact to day of the party! Amazing food and wine, even better service! The guests and, more importantly, the couple were so happy with the party! Thanks so much.

Came in here for drinks with a friend. Did the three meats and three cheeses charcuterie board - everything was delicious. Love love love the hot pepper jelly. Service was lovely.

My only thing is I wish they played music. There wasn’t any playing the few hours we were there and I felt like that would have really elevated the atmosphere.

Great place. Always good service and good wine! Love the Gorgonzola stuffed dates. Parking in Avondale can a struggle so give yourself a little time to find a space.

Me and my friends absolutely adore this place! The tapas are all excellent, and they have a bunch of fun drink options, including non alcoholic. I highly recommend the Sunrise cannonball, the Humboldt fog cheese and the whipped duck rillete.

We travel to Charleston once a year and this wine bar is a must for us every time we go, not only is the place extremely cozy but the service is extrodinary. The woman who work there, Simone, Mia,Katie, and Erica make it such a wonderful experience. It wouldnt be the same without them.If you looking for a cozy reasonably priced delicious wine bar this is your place!

Fun place to enjoy wine, a great charcuterie board, and conversation.

This company tries to hire people by asking them to come in for free and donate their time for free to see if theyre capable of working without explaining their process.Keep in mind, this restaurant has minimal food being served compared to other restaurants in the area and is the most unexpected place to be acting this way toward future employees with ample cooking experience.Theyre looking for people to cut cheese and meat and place it on a wooden board and they call it "art". When someone submits a resume of various restaurants with 100s of things on the menu, its a complete insult that they wouldnt respond within 24 hours about concerns from prospective employees about why they require free "staging" efforts and are left in the dark about how things work.Upon being direct with them that their response time is unacceptable, they responded within minutes telling me the deal is off, which is funny because I was the one that said the deal was off, and yet they came out of the woodwork to respond once I became frustrated at their lack of response time.This is just a small insight into how this restaurant does business. You can always assume there is more behind the scenes going on when one negative experience has been had. If they cant respond to their own future employees in a reasonable period of time with relevant information, you can only imagine how little they value the hiring process of trained professionals that have an expectation of basic communication.Best of luck hiring an employee who doesnt need actual information in a timely fashion and will just desperately take your position.In 8 years of working as a cook thats trained with chefs in NY, CO, CA and SC, this has been the most unprofessional experience Ive ever had trying to get hired somewhere and wouldnt even recommend eating/drinking here based on the unprofesasional attitude they have in the hiring process towards the people that are asking basic information that is only used to serve the company. If they cant give that, thats a no-go for any reasonable customer/prospective employee.
