The 30 Best Bars with wine selection in London

“I really appreciated our hostess/waitress looking after us. This was more of a small family restaurant you would find in Italy or the Balkans where the menu is verbally told and some things were simply not ready at the time we arrived. However, having had the soup and burek we were both very happy with how delicious it was. Unlike a lot of London restaurants the food was more like how my serbian grandma used to make, warm and filling. Thanks for having us and we will be back again soon.”

“Wonderful variety of quality wines. Great service and advise Had MdR Rosé of Viña Memorias”

“I came here for my first visit last night. A Eurovision wine tasting. Really fun, excellent wines and knowledgeable hosts. I will be back.”

“Highly recommend. Staff member was so accommodating for my birthday lunch. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was delicious and atmosphere was happy and relaxed with good music. Thank you!”

“The new Irish manager (Kieron) is an absolute charm. He made me and my work colleague very welcome. Very clean and tidy this place deserves more visitors. Friendly traditional pub. 100% would vote sit again.”

“Trendy little bar and Wine Shop in Putney London. A real gem in Putney Upper Richmond Road beautifully done up. Dee the owner is right on trend with his latest addition to Putney’s gastro/bar scene. Super wines from Spain Portugal and other emerging regions. A delightful red from Bulgaria will warm you up nicely with their wholesome Charcuterie or Cheese board in London’s cold winter nights! There are other Whites and Rose from Spain and Portugal to liven up your Summer days! Dee is always there to share his passion for selection of wines and cheese and happily recommends them to customers. You can order wine by the glass from a selection of twelve different wines which change every week.A must visit in Putney.”

“We recently stayed at a hotel in Northumberland and had an 8 course tasting menu with wines to match each course. Fell in love with 2 particular wines that were very unusual. Searched on line and found them both at great wines direct. First time l have used them , service was excellent. Would use them again.”

“5 stars are just not enough for the food and services we received in GIA. Would have given them 10 stars if Google allows! We lived in Dalston for our stay in London and found GIA accidentally. We went there twice during our stay and both the English and Mediterranean breakfast we had were absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh and all the food on the dishes (even the honey that they make it themselves) were so delicious that we still want to head back for their breakfast even after we moved out from Dalston! The waiter there was very nice and considerate and it’s definitely a very pleasant experience to have our start of the day there! Highly recommend this place to anyone!”

“Genuinely a really lovely experience at Reis Grill & Bar. Music not too loud, very nicely decorated, very lovely and attentive staff, and the food is to die for! The service was also very quick, but it wasn’t so quick that we felt rushed. I can honestly say it is one of the best restaurants I have been to. The only downside was that the food was so good I didn’t have any room for dessert! Thank you very much for a lovely evening.”

“Very nice good and good portion sizes. Friendly staff, nice decor, worth a try!”

“Not the first visit but thought time to review. Lovely atmosphere, great service & tasty food. We’ll definitely be back soon!”

“This neighbourhood restaurant is just a few minutes walk from West Kensington. We ventured from the East after discovering this place on The Fork. It’s small, cosy and has a bit of a family feel about it. We felt very comfortable there. The menu is quite basic but don’t let that fool you. The burrata and the prosciutto were out of this world. I had the most tasty pepperoni and nduja pizza. My partner had pasta. Both were so good! Get there before 7pm for half price cocktails! The server was so attentive, friendly and on the ball. Thanks so much for looking after us. We had a great time and will certainly visit again.”

“It's simply one of the best coffee shops in Hackney. Really, they do great coffee. It's also a carefully curated grocery, where each bottle of wine, beer and food is chosen with a keen and discerning eye. The owners are lovely people, proud to call it my local coffee shop!”

“Fantastic concept. Essentially an artisan off-licence which also operates as a bar. It’s stylish, friendly, spacious and stocked with a great range of homemade bottled cocktails and home brand gins in different sizes. We bought a small bottle of the grapefruit gin and he served it with some Mediterranean Fevertree Tonic, garnished with a grapefruit slice. He also sells some locally sourced antipasti options which looked fabulous.”

“We didn't have food. We went to the bar to order drinks so can't really comment on the service, but it is a lovely local bar. The eine us always delicious and it's not too noisy so you can have a conversation while having a drink”

“Served by (I thiiiiiiink I’m remembering the name right) Connor, great service great cocktails lovely snacks. Will be back! Can recommend charcuterie board and the amaretto and whiskey sour :)”

“The restaurant has a lovely warm atmosphere. Food was amazing- fantastic portions and good prices. The staff were also extremely friendly and accommodating. Would recommend!”

“Delicious meal. Four of us - wine, beer, bread, four meals came to £125 with the tip. Highly recommend. We booked - not sure if you could get a table without.”

“This is an exceptional restaurant. An absolute all rounder. We came here first because of the google reviews. Our first visit was in November 2024 and we were slightly worried we’d made a mistake as we observed the unfancy (but beautifully kept!) interior, and particularly spied the speakers on arrival. However, the entertainment (Tom Jones) turned out to be great fun, and the food was a revelation. I then went back for Whitney Houston night in January 2025 and the entertainment blew me away. And after a very tough Christmas, the food soothed my soul, and my girlfriends and I came away delighted. In summary: Great italian food is hard to find in London, and now having tried nearly everything on the menu by taking exclusive hire of the restaurant for a big birthday, I can confidently say that this is one of the best Italian restaurants in London. We booked the Whitney gals and they blew everyone away with their talent and joie de vivre. Quite simply, go here asap.”

“A local of ours , Top class fillet steak and pasta , to be fair all the food is good out of here , service is great definitely recommend ,”

“Oh my word. My husband and I came here with high expectations for our anniversary. Firstly, a sincere shoutout to the friendly and highly attentive waitstaff. We reserved in advance (which I recommend doing as it gets busy!) and they had actually read my booking notes. In the notes I mentioned I was pregnant and so they double checked I was happy with the preparation and ingredients of certain dishes. The menu leans towards the spicy and salty side, but at the same time is very fragrant and aromatic. Quite addictive really! I’ve seen viral videos of that Tom Yam deluxe noodle dish so obviously we had to get it. It was delicious, but to my surprise, my favourite dish was their Naem fried rice. It’s been about a week since our visit and I’m still licking my lips thinking about it. To top everything off, we got a surprise scoop of taro ice cream. How adorable is that? Lots of love to Speedboat. We’ll be back, and definitely before our next anniversary!”

“What an incredible find! If you're looking for genuine Italian food made with passion, this is the place. The homemade lasagna, straight from a family recipe, was absolute perfection—rich, flavourful, and clearly made with love. The wine list was superb, and our server's recommendation was the perfect pairing. We finished with a fantastic dessert that was the ideal end to the meal. The best part was seeing the owner in the kitchen, pouring his heart into the food. That passion is the secret ingredient. We're already planning our next visit!”

“We went there for dinner on Friday night. The vibe was very chilled, beautiful interior in the inner part. We had beef cheeks (really nice and tender, good sized portion) and duck salad (good, but the duck was overdone). For the mains we had lasagna (decent quality, but a bit dry for my taste) and rabbit (very good). An amazing selection of Italian wines. The service is really, really friendly and very attentive. Overall, a nice local gem both for dinner or just casual drinks with some Italian cheese and meets. Would definitely go back.”

“I've eaten here a few times now with a group of friends and we have always had a fabulous time. The duck is the best I've ever eaten and my rare steak was perfect. The cocktails take a moment but are worth waiting for. There are usually six of us who eat together and a couple of them can be quite fussy but we regularly come back to Alcedo as we have never had a complaint from our group. The staff are friendly, welcoming and professional.”

“I recently dined at your restaurant and had an exceptional experience, largely thanks to the outstanding service provided by your waitress, Halina. From the moment I entered, Halina greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel incredibly welcome. Throughout the meal, Halina's attentiveness and professionalism were truly commendable. She went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my dining experience was enjoyable and seamless. Her knowledge of the menu was impressive, and she offered excellent recommendations that perfectly suited my taste preferences. Not only was Halina efficient and attentive, but her genuine kindness and friendly demeanor truly stood out. She took the time to engage in pleasant conversation, making me feel valued as a customer. In addition to Halina's exceptional service, the food at your restaurant was delicious, and the ambiance was inviting. The combination of great food and outstanding service made for a memorable dining experience that I will cherish. I highly commend Halina for her exemplary service and dedication to ensuring that guests have a wonderful dining experience. She is a true asset to your restaurant, and I look forward to returning soon to enjoy her impeccable service once again.”

“I recently went to try out Amchur and it was incredible! It’s under new management & the food was excellent, staff were great and the atmosphere was inviting!”

“My heart is happy. My belly is full. And my smile will take me home. Cycling home I joined my housemates and friends on the street in the summer heat and I live in hither green but I haven’t yet felt more at home here than I do right now. Thank you Fera, it was delicious.”

“Incredibly sweet and charming people working here. We were welcomed with warmth and friendliness. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, nice for three people having a late breakfast. The food was fresh and delicious , and we left pleased with the visit. I recommend the avocado on bread. The smoothies are also very good, ours were gone within a minute Definitely coming back next time I’m in London!”

“The food is amazing and the service top class”
