Absolutely delicious food! Stopped in Occoquan to get out of 95 traffic—we picked a gem! The bacon-wrapped meatloaf was delicious; the Greek Lamb burger was delicious as well! Though they should make their fries “bottomless”! Will definitely stop here again.

Good wine, good food, and great service! Definitely plan to go back.
Great little wine bar in Occoquan!!! I love to come here and do a couple of wine flights and try new wines! And I also absolutely love love love love their bacon wrapped dates! A must try! It’s so addicting. And the best part….they are dog friendly and super nice! I brought my Golden multiple times and my clients dog and they treat them like royalty ?? the staff is the best!

My second time here and I loved it! Will definitely will be returning again and again! The vibes are chill and comfy, the service is top (special shoutout to the bartender & waitress - Savannah), and the food… AMAZING. I ordered the bacon wrapped meatloaf and had a taste of my friend’s caesar salad. So good! Also happy hour is from 4-7pm, wine is only $7! If you’re ever in the Occoquan area, visit this place!

Disappointing service as I overheard the waitresses making offensive comments about the previous customers. Apparently a woman was not happy with the fact that they ran out of Brussel sprouts. Fine. But what is not okay is that this waitress spoke poorly about a paying customer, let alone in front of other customers. Not a good look.

Where are these 4 and 5 star reviews coming from other than regulars who feel they are a part of the establishment? This place was absolutely horrible. Poor service by an unfriendly server. Overpriced 2 ounce pours of wine (5.50 and 6.00 each). “Blooming” pearl onions ($9, yes, $9 — see pic for the serving) consists of the smallest amount possible on a piece of lettuce. The yuca was reasonably priced, but the worst yuca I have had in the area. The ranch for the pearl onions was the cheapest ranch you could buy. Horrible, horrible, horrible!!!!!We saw so many unhappy faces. Should have been the clues to continue walking.Wine glasses were covered with water stains.Positive: The vanilla porter on tap was nice and well priced.

My husband and I have been coming here every week for the past year or so, and we love everything about it! The food and wine are delicious, the service is great, and the staff are fantastic! We truly see this restaurant as our "happy place," and the staff have become almost like a second family. They also have a wonderful wine club, which allows us to try different wines every month. We also get discounts on our food and drinks as wine club members, which is an added bonus!

I discovered this hidden gem early spring with my boyfriend and I live in the area. It’s quaint and the ambience inside gives you that nice and bougie feel! Bottle Stop is an establishment that is so inviting that you just want to just chill for hours. Okay, the wine and whiskey collection is exceptional. Let’s talk about the food…so so good!!! From the presentation to every bite, it’s like an experience happening in your mouth. I brought my girlfriends here for a birthday dinner and they also fell in love. This place is such a vibe, special and anything you order, you are not disappointed. You know something is good when the entire table is silent because they are having a moment with the food or talking about the food. That is Bottle Stop!

Perfect date night spot! Great wine selection, awesome food, beautiful ambience. There’s an outdoor seating section as well!
Great staff and revised spirits menu. Ordered the lasagna and awaiting results. So, jury's out for now.

We celebrated our intimate wedding here and couldn’t have had a better experience. Kim (the owner) and her staff are delightful and thoughtful. They were attentive with every detail from curating the menu, offering a fantastic bar service, and setting up our decor. Absolutely recommend the Bottle Stop and will continue to support this local gem.

This is a nice little place to eat. Even though it is a wine bar they have an excellent selection of beer as well. The grilled cheese, lamb burger, and hamburgers are all really good. But my go to has become the ratatouille. They also have a wine of the month club, and membership earns you a 10% discount on your meals. My wife has enjoyed the wines she has gotten each month. And your canine companion is welcome to join you in the outside seating area.
