I stopped in twice yesterday. The first visit was fine -- nothing memorable, but fine. Geneva was…read morebartending both times. The second visit, however, came with a greeting I've never heard in my fifty‑plus years: "You've been out all day. I can't serve you because I'll be liable if you're over served." I've bartended before. I understand the responsibility. But I was never asked a single question about what I'd actually been doing. For clarity: we had lunch at Michael's Seafood before our first visit. I had one non‑alcoholic seltzer at Island Beverage, and my partner had a four‑flight sampler. After that, we went thrifting and shopping at Goodwill, Lowe's Foods, and Dollar Tree. No drinking. No bar‑hopping. Nothing even close. On our second visit, Geneva gave us water and let us charge a phone -- and I do appreciate that. But being told "you've been out all day" instead of "welcome back" was unnecessary, inaccurate, and frankly insulting. It was an assumption presented as fact, and it was embarrassing. What made it even more absurd was watching Geneva continue to serve patrons who were clearly intoxicated while I sat there with a glass of water. So here's the takeaway: Don't go in twice in one day. Apparently that alone is enough to get treated like you've been drinking all over town. After this experience, I won't be going in on any day. I hope the staff can handle situations like this with actual communication instead of jumping straight to conclusions.

Then there was a drink with elderflower and edible glitter that we had to try- so good and so pretty! It's a smaller place, so it's never super loud, even when the bar is packed.

Not Aldi or Costco prices but still very good. Why is this place different than most? 1) Tasting machine where you can try wines before you buy (at a small cost) 2) Arrangement of the wines. Example, displays for "Dinner party" and other events. 3) Wines brands you will not find at other places in town. Sorry, no Barefoot or 19 Crimes here. 4) Staff is very knowledge and helpful They don't have the selection like a Total Wine, but they do have very affordable selections for any need. I will be back. Highly recommend

They do take reservations, so I'd recommend calling ahead. On my last visit, I got a craft seltzer on tap and then also got a can of hurricane drink.

There is parking nearby, but don't expect a spot in the parking lot if you late in the day. Overall, definitely worth a stop in. Good energy and great drinks.
