Excellent selection of both wine and cocktails. Loved that they have a philanthropic section of drinks in which a big portion of the drink price is donated to Humane Society... love that! My friends loved that drink too. Food was great... perfect selections for a bustling wine bar. Fun and nice environment to sit outside. I'll be back! read more

Finally made it to Corkscrew and I am already ready to go back. I feel like parking here can be a pain sometimes but we came during the middle of the day and there was plenty of spots available. Service was great. The gentleman assisting us was very helpful and informative. My friends and I had wine and cocktails, all of which were good quality. We also shared the bread service and the black truffle burrata. All of it was really good. The other menu items were tempting so I will have to come back soon to try more. Great spot for a friend group or a date night. read more

Would rate a 0 if possible. A tequila and soda shouldnt take more than 2 minutes. Sat for over 20 minutes with no drink after ordering. When asked about the drink the response we received was " I am the only bartender" . Keep in mind, only 4 other people sitting at the bar. Wouldn't want to see it busy. Never going back read more

My mother went to corkscrew with 4 of her friends and was yelled at for moving a seat, the staff was rude the entire night and forgot one of her friend's drinks , and charged them a large party fee for a group of five. read more

Stopped by here with some work colleagues before heading to dinner. The drinks were solid. I don't drink so they made me a mocktail which was similar to the Victory Garden and it was amazing, fresh, refreshing and perfect on a nice spring day and would definitely visit for this drink again! The service was great and the ambiance was nice casual and relaxing place to meet up have drinks and be comfortable! I would definitely recommend this place if staying in the area. read more

Great wine. Cute ambiance and seating areas. BUT based on the interactions with the bartenders waiting on us we felt like we were bothering them by being there....Annoyed by questions. Answering awkwardly. Clearing away every dish on the table like they wanted us to leave. I would like to come back, but I don't feel like I'm wanted.....(it was also 3pm during the day - they weren't busy) -they also no longer do flights and tastings are $7- read more

We love this wine bar great finds always friendly service and they have Maine Lunch on tap!! Unheard of around this area.

This place was great, amazing atmosphere and they had live music that was great. The bartenders were all amazing and very talented. A great after dinner spot for drinks and to chill. Highly recommended. read more

Nice place. Well the food was good. Our bartender peshawar seemed unschooled about the food, he wasn't a total imbecile, but close. Thanks to the cook we were able to enjoy ourselves and our food. read more

Quite possibly the worst service ever. Friday, not busy, like 8, first encounter good. Zero second encounter until we ask for a check. Staff spent all their time doing back stock and acting like they were busy. Zero attention to customers. Speed of the team is the speed of the leader! read more

8.10 the music while nice in theory, totally detracted from the night. Please skip music inside. It's so loud with wonderful table conversations all around us... but with the music we couldn't even talk. So relieved when they ended. Would love them outside though- great band. Drinks are always phenomenal!! Every single one. Get them all! Takes a while, so just come in, sit down and relax. It will all work out. read more

Stopped in to check out the venue late afternoon on a quiet afternoon. The venue had a relaxing atmosphere with good music. It's not just a place to enjoy wine, there are spirits too. Our server, Michael was friendly and was able to answer our questions. There is spacious outdoor seating. We did not get any food. read more

Corkscrew Kingsley - Inside - Wine Bars Near Me - Fort Mill, South Carolina

Gone a few times now and each time, the service is below subpar. Takes over 10 minutes for a server to come outside and get our menus. On top of that, no lighting outside so you're sitting in the pitch black. Each time, the bill is often wrong which leads to me needing a refund and them charging me a SECOND time because the first time was a mistake. Don't be charging people $15+ for a drink with below average service. Will not be recommending this spot to anyone. read more

I'm a beginner wine sommelier...well not quite but in my mind I am. This spot can be described in one word: sexy! It's the most adorable spot to have a cocktail or glass of wine. Lofty and airy, the oversized blue sofas accented with copper side tables made me think of an episode of HGTV. It's super cozy and staff is amazing. I wish I could recall the bartender's name who was amazing at assisting me with my wine selection. We got there less than an hour before closing so I could only indulge in one glass and had to be intentional about my selection. The bartender let me sample the two I was torn between. I was considering the Delta when he mentioned the Hardin Napa Cabernet. Let me just say that the Hardin is heaven in a glass and worth every bit of $30 (with tip)!!! Every. Single. Bit. I seriously cannot wait to return. I've already mentioned this spot to a few friends and know it will be a great date night or girls' night spot! read more

Stumbled across this dainty wine spot 10 minutes away from my house in the Kingsley area. Giving them 5 stars strictly for the area . We sat out on the Patio area while listening to a live band play outside across the way at a near by bar. The entire shopping area was lit , we felt like we were on the strip of Miami while walking around outside on a freakin weekday ! So long story short they do offer food and finger bites but when we arrived the last call for food orders was long gone so we opted for a glass of wine . They had pretty good wine specials going on . I will have to come back to try a few things from the menu. read more

If you're looking for fine wine they also have a great selection of premium bottles available for sale. Highly recommended! read more

The drinks were incredible. Highly recommend trying a few of their specialty cocktails. Bartenders know what they're doing. They were out of some of the small plates we wanted to try but got a flatbread pizza which was just ok, not bad. Atmosphere is cozy read more

Great spot for drinks with friends. I thought the house red was good. My friends ordered a childcare martini and Prosecco respectively. Very nice servers, never felt rushed. The ambiance is great - we actually sat in some lounging chairs around a table. I felt we were able to space out from others. They have a patio area as well. I tried my friends' caprese flatbread- it was too crispy in my opinion. I wouldn't order it. I think this is more of a drinks only spot for sure. read more

drinks and snacks tonight. Oliwia and Stewart are a delight! best espresso martini in the charlotte area!

Had an absolutely bizarre experience here tonight. Let me preface this by saying after 10 years in the restaurant industry, I almost always tend to side with the staff in situations and give them massive benefit of the doubt. I asked "Employee 1" behind the bar if they had Chartreuse. He informed me they had both yellow and green. I asked if I could have The Last Word, with Amaro Montenegro instead of Luxardo. "Employee 2" started to gather the ingredients behind the bar, but seemed confused and while he asked for help he also seemed to not like being told where things were. Employee 1 who had disappeared into the back comes out with the Green Chartreuse to make me my Last Word. Employee 2 steps in front of him to shield him, says something to employee 1 and employee 1 returns to the back with the Green Chartreuse. Employee 2 now starts mixing my drink but uses Genepy (an alternative liqueur to Chartreuse but would never fool an informed customer). I ask employee 2 if he will be making the cocktail with Chartreuse and he pauses for a moment and then says no, without eye contact. I find this very strange given I was Told they had Chartreuse, and had just seen it. I told employee 2 that I didn't want it then, and wanted something else. He fed me some story about how they aren't authorized to use Chartreuse. They couldn't have disappointed a more forgiving customer, but also a more knowledge Chartreuse drinker. I was really disappointed and felt like I was being offered a muted experience at this point. Employee 1 came by a few minutes later and apologized on behalf of employee 2. A few minutes after that, employee 2 offered a less than authentic apology and said he would have to go research what their policy was. I asked him point blank if he was withholding it from me because he wanted to sell it on the secondary market. He denied and said they might have been trying to save it. For what...a paying customer...like me??? Absolutely bizarre. My default position is that someone on staff wanted it for themselves, to drink or to resell. I was perfectly happy with the substitute beverage they gave me, and the remainder of the evening was quite nice. The espresso martini and the other cocktails were top notch. I have no idea what to rate this place. Don't offer your customers something then attempt to sleight of hand at the last minute when mixing. read more

I got lost yesterday and I ended up going to the Corkscrew wine shop and bar. I parked there cause not a lot of parking so I decided why not. The owner was extremely nice and welcoming. The ambiance is just beautiful. I felt comfortable there and there was a nice man that helped me pick out a beer. It was good. I had the flat bread pizza and the nice bartenders made sure I had water. They probably knew I don't drink often. Go here it is a nice place with great welcoming folks. read more

Why are the lights so bright in a place like this? Would be so much better if the lights were turned down to match the vibe.

Corkscrew excels at vibe, atmosphere, and service, which is why I keep coming back. Gabby is very welcoming and warm and Michael is an effortlessly chill mixologist. As soon as I walk in the door, my shoulders relax. The wine selection is great and the beers are a nice cross section. Highly recommend for dates, long conversations, and after work cocktails! read more

Upscale and they know it! No kids, but a good selection and ambiance. We haven't met too many people in the area who have been

Great wine bar with good food options as well - the caprese flatbread was my favorite and the cheese charcuterie board was great and gave A LOT of cheese :) To top it all off they have an extremely friendly staff and nice outdoor space - They didn't have any heaters but I'm hopeful they will get some soon so that we can continue to enjoy that space in the cooler months. read more

Bad service and overpriced. The service was very slow. She disappeared for very long times and had a little attitude. The caprese flatbread was pretty good. Two glasses of wine, flatbread and a charcuterie board shouldn't be $105 though. I can eat at the very good Chop House for that. read more

We had a really great time with friends here. Our wine was great. The guys enjoyed the beer selections they had. Our server was friendly and helpful.

Corkscrew Kingsley - Night cap - Wine Bars Near Me - Fort Mill, South Carolina

This is such a double edge review. There were 6 of us who showed up around 5pm on Saturday. We were told by the bartender that they will be closing for a private event at 7pm. No problem, we were just there to try a fancy cocktail. We chose to sit in a little lounge area with a couch and couple arm chairs. Very comfortable. Our server was good and drinks were great! Best espresso martini I've ever had. At approximately 6:25pm a woman came over to our area and aggressively swiped up all our drinks and waters without saying one word. We all looked at each other asking "did that just happen?" We were never informed of them needing us to leave at that time. We figured we could have finished our drinks as we had been working on paying the bill at this time. I asked to speak to the manager (because that is what we Karens do). And to my shock, the woman who behaved in that manner WAS the manager. I simply explained to her that she is allowed to use her words in her occupation and it would have been more appropriate to have explained to us that they needed the space and they were closing now. She could have cared less! Her attitude was nothing short of nasty and dismissive. Her name is Sara and I think she would be better off in an industry that does not require customer service. Due to the nasty way we were treated, not one of us will be returning. read more

My husband and I wanted charcuterie and had heard good reviews about Corkscrew at Kingsley. Parking was easy for a Sunday night at 6:15. The restaurant has a nice urban vibe with cozy corners set up for conversation. Michael, the lone waiter graciously indicated an open table and we took it. I found a Sauvignon Blanc called Hunky Dory and we decided on the meats and sweets board and a bangin shrimp flatbread. All were delish and a good size for the money. Michael was helpful and unobtrusive with his professional service. We chatted and listened to an eclectic selection of recorded music. This is a place to chill and we will be doing that at Corkscrew in the future! read more

The food was delicious and the drinks were delightful. I had a lavender haze and my spouse had a gin martini. It was great. We will be back!

It was our first visit and we will absolutely be back. They are cleaning constantly, much more than any other restaurants or bars we have been to during this time. They are very attentive and considerate and have a great offering of wines, cocktails, and beers. We didn't try the food but are excited to soon! read more

Stop in. It doesn't matter if it's a week day. Sometimes you need to stop and have a glass of wine, (or bourbon mixer), kick back and relax!
