10 Best Wine Bars in Charlottesville

“Charcuterie Board! Very tasty with 3 cheeses and 2 meats. Great price. Service was excellent. Yummy baguette, very good crust. Thank you!“

“We stumbled upon this on Sunday evening as things were closing down. Running late from some shopping and wandering around C’ville. What a great surprise and cannot wait to return. Great selection of wines by the glass, and the selection of take home wines was stellar. There is the normal charcuterie board options, but they have a cross marketing option with a sister restaurant for various “real meals”. My wife had a great vegetarian pasta and i had an excellent pork ragu dish. My only frankly still obnoxious point with the store is they charged a $15 corkage fee on a full priced bottle of wine I (> $50) bought from the store to have a glass with dinner after already ordering three glasses between the two of us. I’ve never experienced this anywhere else, and frankly it put a bit of a damper on what was otherwise a great experience. Next time I’ll know not to buy wine at the store, and just buy by the glass instead.“

“Highly recommend this restaurant! The house salad was the best salad I’d ever had. The cocktails are wonderful; the tender even accommodated my special request. The entrees were sumptuous; we got the Italian sausage pasta and the salmon. We travel through Charlottesville twice a year and dine here on our way up and back each year. It’s my favorite part of our trip. Service is excellent.“

“Service excellence. Perfect setting. Fantastic food. Everything was great“

“Food was exceptional as usual but Service we received & recommendations from our server Jamie was spot on and the best we both have ever had ?. Looking forward to our next stay at Kimpton in Charlottesville & dining at Birch & Bloom as well ? Also I like to give a shout out to James at the Kimpton for his over the top Customer Service ??“

“2nd time eatting here. Helpful waiter, good drinks and great food! Thank you and we look forward to our next visit. 🕌“

“Great place with super-friendly service and has been that way for a long time…“

“Tucked away in sleepy Woolen Mills, Workshop serves up some of Charlottesville’s best coffee. Their team is always warm and knowledgeable. Their pastries are delicious and are gone early so don’t wait on a visit. Their outside sitting area is fantastic on a warm morning. Simply love this place.“

“If you're a wine nerd this is your Shangri-la! We had a great visit at Tastings while in Charlottesville for the weekend. Bill is an excellent proprietor. The selection of wines and vintages were awesome to sort through, and we had some great conversations with Bill and other customers while we were there. The shop makes you feel like you're hunting for buried treasure, and we definitely found some awesome vintaged wines. I can't wait to come back for my next visit!“

“I recently had the BEST SALAD of my life at Bizou (the roasted beet, mango + goat cheese salad!) It was a gorgeous Wednesday afternoon in summer, sitting in the lovely shade of a patio umbrella, a chilled glass of Virginia-made Rose wine…. A quintessential Charlottesville experience. I will definitely be back, and I highly recommend!“
