A very quirky and appealing bar, great atmosphere and excellent wines, though some areas of the bar are clearly not designed for those over 5ft8. One major gripe though concerning the bar staff - be sure the watch your change, after handing over a £20 for £8 bill i was given change for a £10 note upon mentioning this to the barmaid, I was asked if i was sure, yes i was, she then proceeded to ask customers around me whether or not a did indeed hand over a £20 note, none could confirm, after finally giving me the correct change, she announced I hope your not lying otherwise you're a thief!!!! So much for the customer is always right?!?! And in this case I fear it was the barmaid who was actually trying to be the thief. Watch your change carefully

The bar staff rock. Drinking in here one Friday lunchtime I got free drinks on the condition that I stop serving the man, free myself and not return to work. Only too happy to oblige! Cheers!

In the winter, hunker down in the cobwebby cellars. In the summer, sit outside and glug away. Go when it's a little quieter and you can reach the food (tasty). It does get packed though and it can be hard to find a seat.

Last time I was there a slightly crazy guy was chatting to people sat outside and selling sparklers and party poppers. He seems to come round regularly and is pretty polite.

Went in here after walking past many a time and wondering just what was through that door. An extremely pleasant surprise waited inside - knowledgable, friendly staff, interesting selection of snacks and wide selection of wine at reasonable prices. "Caves" that go back under the street were totally unexpected. Definitely a place to visit if you already haven't, and one you'll probably go back to.

outstanding wine bar. this is what wine bars should be about. spit and sawdust atmosphere with a proper selection of port, sherry, wine by the bottle not just a designer glass and steel covered room with a couple of bottles of blue nun. staff are excellent and knowledgeable i can not rate this place high enough just make sure you dont want a beer as they dont serve it

If more wine bars were like this, more beer drinkers would go to them.
