House Wine is absolutely adorbs! I love the boho-chic, glam decor and vibes. Even the ceiling was fab. Super comfy and inviting seating all over this little wine cottage. It's a small space but super spacious. They've got a nicely sized front patio as well. The Frose' was super yum. Great tasting mocktails too. Great happy hour specials. Food bite options like whipped feta, s'mores (roast at the table), tapas, etc. Exceptional service. read more

Absolutely obsessed with this place. If you love natural wine, cozy vibes, and a little magic sprinkled into your night, this wine bar is it. The wine selection is thoughtfully curated--funky, fresh, and approachable--with staff who genuinely know their stuff and are happy to guide you to your perfect pour. The charcuterie and tapas are just as impressive (I love the savory baked brie ). Add in live music that sets the mood without overpowering conversation, tarot card readings that are equal parts fun and insightful, and an insanely cute aesthetic, and you've got a spot that feels special from the moment you walk in. Can't wait to come back. read more

House Wine was such a great experience for us. As we walked in, we were greeted by an acoustic guitarist / singer. There's a front outdoor patio, an inside first room that looks like a comfortable, inviting living room and another back area down a ramp with more additional inviting tables and couches. We ordered from the server at the counter. We started with the cheese board (brie and manchego), salted caramel chocolate, and best of all, we tried the s'mores with marshmallows and hershey's bars which we constructed into sandwiches and heated over a mini table top warmer. From first dates to seasoned couples, the s'mores are guaranteed fun and the way to go. House Wines as you might expect has a great selection of wines including by the glass. read more

Usually live music after 7pm which is so wonderful! Place is really cute, although the outside could be more comfortable. Parking - small but there's parking behind it! Between dolce neve and house wine, enter there and down by the back trees is parking :) Food - bit pricey but good. I like their charcuterie boards and $1 caramel chocolates. Sundays half off wine glasses! Staff friendliness has gone down :( No music outside after several attempts asking on multiple different occasions. Sit inside otherwise 0 vibe. Inside is nice. read more

Came here with some friends to celebrate pre-bday. It was very cute, charming, and cozy. Great vibes and setting for catching up with girlfriends, or a comfortable date night, they even have sections large enough to hold a bigger group (6 of us). We ordered a bunch of boards they offered, all were satisfying. Service was friendly, the parking is small. I recommend going here if you want to catch up with friends, very chill vibes. read more

They say "the House always wins", but not when it comes to House Wine. This place has been on my radar since their previous location and although the building seems nicer, the service & bites were mediocre. The wait staff really brought down the house. Very slow, not friendly and seemed bothered when we tried to place orders even though it was a relatively slow night. The main highlights were the live acoustic music and the chef who checked in more often than the server. read more

This new location of House Wine is located on South 1st with a dedicated parking lot behind the house, which is quite convenient. The space is aesthetically decorated with comfortable couches and pretty pillows. They also have live music playing from time to time. And the menu is quite elaborate - you can try wines from different corners of the world. The staff are knowledgeable about wines and friendly. read more

had an extremely disappointing and upsetting experience at this wine bar tonight. From the moment my friend and I walked in, the bartender's attitude felt hostile and unwelcoming. One of the first things he asked us was "Where are you from?" which immediately made the interaction uncomfortable. Shortly afterward, despite it only being around 10:00 PM, he warned us that if we stayed even one minute past midnight he would take our drinks and kick us out. The tone was unnecessarily aggressive and completely out of proportion to the situation. Things escalated when I presented my valid ID. The bartender examined it for nearly two full minutes, speaking to us in a condescending manner, before ultimately refusing service under the claim that it was fake. My group was all in our 30s, and the way this was handled felt less like a genuine verification and more like profiling and intimidation. Austin has so many great wine bars that know how to create a hospitable environment. Unfortunately, this was not one of them. I left feeling extremely frustrated and upset by how we were treated. read more

Such a cute and cozy spot for wine and snacks. The menu is mainly snack foods like cheese boards, and they have a wide selection of all sorts of wines. I was so excited to see they had orange wines as well. There was also live acoustic music the Friday evening I was there. There's a small parking lot behind the house, otherwise street parking in the area. Can't wait to hang out more often here. read more

Such a cute addition to this area! Recently relocated to S 1st street according to their website - we were fortunate to find this gem. The ambiance is amazing - food and drink options are perfect for an afternoon snack or evening gathering with friends! A must do!! read more

I loved House Wine. Very cute space, but I'm sure it can get loud if it's busy. I'm not sure if it was the deal of the day or just the regular happy hour deal, but it was half off glasses of open bottles which was kind of fun. I would give it a five if the bartender wasn't wiping their nose while pouring our drinks read more

I came to house wine for their soft re-opening since their old location on Josephine st closed after the passing of its prior owner. I saw an article on Eater Austin saying Fri 9/27 they'd have some welcome sparkling wine and snacks so I came with the intent to try some, enjoy the new ambiance and probably get a glass of something! I was greeted by super friendly and attentive staff who did bring me a glass of welcome bubbly when I asked. They mentioned about some snacks (nuts, or a hummus plate) as well which I mistakenly assumed was the "free" snacks; I requested the hummus plate and while I was on the phone I was brought nuts. They were toasted and salted; i went ahead and ate them since they were in front of me and they tasted nice enough but I found out they weren't free, I think were $8ish actually for a small serving dish of them. I really can't fault the restaurant for that, it's my fault for not asking since i didnt really need the calories and would've declined if I'd realized it wasn't part of the welcome festivities, but oh well. Otherwise the ambiance of the new place is similar to the prior spot, it's cute in there. They have a nice patio as well. Clean bathrooms, no issues there. It's also amidst lots of good restaurants on S. First so you could easily get dinner before or after as well nearby. read more

I absolutely love the new House wine location. It's conveniently located right on South 1st street. There is limited parking behind the restaurant and paid street parking in the neighborhood behind. The front gate, patio and inside are all so pretty. There is so much to look at and a very cozy vibe. Susie helped us and she was very nice to talk to and very knowledgeable. I ordered a Mediterranean plate which all was delicious and of course the wine was enjoyed. I recommend a flight so you can try a few. read more

An employee wearing a beanie came out to our car window to yell at us for parking in their lot. We had just grabbed ice cream and planned to sit and eat before heading into House Wine for a glass of wine after dinner. We were honestly shocked by the way he spoke to us. He mentioned that the anger he was displaying stemmed from how Dolce Neve treats them, but as customers, it was uncomfortable and not a good look. read more

Imagine the loveliest of spaces for a glass of wine, and House Wine will come to mind. The menu includes a lengthy list of options - and the kind servers behind the counter are very willing to describe them all. We didn't order any bites - but I can't say any looked overly appealing. Really a perfect spot though to order a drink and relax for an hour (or few). read more

I stopped by with friends for a ladies night out (Thursday). This place has a cozy and fun ambiance. Once we were seated, service was subpar. After ordering two bottles and two charcuterie boards, our server was nowhere to be found nor did she check-in to ask if we needed anything else. When it came time to pay our bill, she had a hard time splitting the cost equally using her handheld kiosk. The first transactions were voided and the second transactions were slightly off but we sorted it out afterwards. This place has so much potential - it's important for servers to be attentive. Anyhow, I may give it another try. Overall nice place with cute decor and laidback vibes. read more

Popped in late one evening.. very chill vibes.. comfortable.. the two wines we had were on point as well! Didn't try the food because we had already eaten something prior but Rachel and Mark were amazing hosts! Service made us feel right at home! Highly recommended! read more

Came in on a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoyed their lovely patio. The place is tucked away and very welcoming, chill and, homey. Our hostess was really nice and took the time to explain the wine and the mission of the bar. I'm not a big wine drinker but I thought the frosé was really good because it seemed to have strawberries blended into it. I got the charcuterie and bread tapas which I expected to have some cheese but was only meat (salami and prosciutto). It was $8 during happy hour which we felt was still a little steep for what it was. My minor complaint is with billing. The frosé was supposedly $7 during happy hour but I was charged $8 which is nbd. However, there was also a small fee for using non-cash payment which I would've liked to know since I had cash. I don't think this was anywhere on the menu and could've been verbally mentioned. read more

Cute little wine bar owned by local females in a small house looking building. They had indoor and outdoor seatings, but we sat outside since we had a dog with us. They had a large natural wine selections with food like charcuterie boards, pizza, tapas and desserts. We came here during happy hour and ordered a natural white wine. Overall, we had a good experience even though we were only there for an hour. read more

This establishment left me confused and annoyed to be honest. Came in a few weeks ago with the girls and had a great day. The server was attentive. The wine was fine. Came in the other day and they didn't have any servers?! Only counter service ordering from a long disorganized line with no explanation. How can you have a sit down nice wine bar one night and the next night it's a chaotic counter service free for all? Also noticed they were getting their ice from a cooler stocked from a freezer, which is bizarre and didn't exactly inspire confidence. It's Gonna be a no from me. read more

So I am not a wine guy. I'm not a "I wanna sit and sip with cheese"and that whole thing... But dang, this was pretty cool. The music in the background was very nice, chill relaxed vibe... The service was extraordinary.. Elisa was great.. took very good care of us but had to leave :( but then Gretchen came out ... She's the boss lady. Lol. Too awesome. We know nothing about wines other than Paul telling Timothy to drink wine for his stomach ailments. :) Our cheese plate was very good. The chocolate, gouda, brioche... Bruh, it was delicious, and we had dinner before coming here!!! Thank y'all for a great experience. read more

Whoever named this place House Wine meant it literally! Entering this wine bar feels like coming over to a friend's house. The decor is colorful yet homey, and there are plenty of seating options with cushions for extra comfort. They serve a wide variety of food here, everything from charcuterie boards to pizza to empanadas. My friend and I came here for their daily happy hour (3-6 pm) for $2 off glasses/$6 off bottles, but we decided to each get a flight instead. I opted for the Aromatic White Flight ($20), which had three white wines from three different countries. The flight came in the cutest little glasses with labels underneath! None of the wines were overly sweet or overly dry, so it was a nice variety to sip on. Especially with the happy hour specials, I think this is a nice spot to get some wine and light bites with friends. read more

I've been coming here on and off for the last 7 years and I've always had a great time. They sometimes have live music, which is great, and the staff are always knowledgeable and friendly. Parking can be a pain but if you're going to drink wine you should be unerring anyway so I can't complain too much there. I prefer dry red wines and I've never had a glass there that I didn't like. Yesterday, a friend and I shared a bottle of Argentinian Malbec with a charcuterie spread which we both enjoyed though some of the nuts were basically burnt. We sat outside because the weather was nice and for the music but there's also cozy, indoor seating. I don't come as often as I should but it's always a good time here and I recommend visiting. read more

For the record I'm a sucker for a wine tasting. What I truly enjoy about House Wine Austin is that it's the absolute perfect atmosphere to be educated while enjoying great vino! That said lets dive a little deeper into my experience. I got there for the opening which I recall was at 1pm. The quaint house with trees lazily overhanging the entrance and courtyard gave me the feeling I was entering a countryside bistro in France. Your senses are being massaged before you even step foot inside. That said, once inside it radiates comfort with small, separate areas consisting of high top tables on one side by the bar contrasted by couches with coffee tables on the other side. The only complaint I have is when I made the reservation I was anticipating "Old World" wine which was on my reservation only to have "New World" dominated by mostly white wines which doesn't suit my palette as well but I digress. The sommelier was extremely knowledgeable about all the wines. Moreover, I ordered the charcuterie board with cheeses and he suggested which wines would go with which foods and nailed every item. As for the food, of which I limited to small items was expertly prepared, fresh, and had a wonderful variety of meats, cheeses (I opted for 3), and other items. The wines were interesting as the journey started in Argentina with a Torrentes, then to South Africa for a Mourvedre then to California and a Brea Chardonnay. Rounding out the night we had a Livvera Beguignol from Argentian and ending with a Kiona Lemberger from Washington. Overall my date and I had a wonderful experience and she even bought me a bottle of the Washington wine! In summary I highly suggest Wine House for the ambiance as it really is a romantic and scenic endeavor. Next they have great small bites of high quality food. Finally the wine list is very well thought out with something for everyone while also offering wine tastings on a monthly basis. read more

Such a cute wine bar hidden in Austin! I'm glad I was able to visit during my trip. There's different seating areas both indoors and outdoors. There was live music outside, which gave a relaxing vibe. We came on a Sunday night and they had 1/2 off on select bottles. We ordered a bottle of garnacha and it didn't disappoint. We also ordered bread and butter, then a chocolate lava cake for dessert. To top it off, we had really great service. Our server was so friendly and she made great recommendations. I'll definitely make my way back to House Wine when I come back to Austin. read more

The ambiance and decor were adorable and the wines and pairings delicious! Will definitely go back! read more

We went on a Saturday evening and it was almost empty with no patrons inside. We took a spot in the back section. They ignored us until after I went and checked with the host. We ordered mulled wine, moscato & the salmon platter. They forgot to bring my wine (after waiting 45 min)and had to over to the host to cancel my order. The host brings me the wine anyways. When asked how the wine was heated she tells me in a microwave in a wine glass that's not microwave safe. Worst service Average food Decent selection of wine The spot is perfect for a date though read more

This was my first time visiting House Wine and I did enjoy it! Would've been 5 stars but the Mediterranean plate was just not worth the price tag -- although all the items were good quality and flavor, the quantity was lacking. I did really enjoy the wine flight, and each wine was labeled with its name and region of origin. The service was great and the ambiance was adorable. Only other complaint I have is the lack of parking -- there's only street parking but that is reasonable for the area. Overall, I would definitely visit again, probably during the week when they have better happy hour deals. read more

SUCH a hidden gem. A small house with a courtyard turned into the cutest little spot. The location is great, a bit set back from the busy road so it made it quiet. I recommend sitting outside for the best ambiance. I ordered a flight of wine and my friend and I shared a pizza. It was delicious and perfect. They had tons of options for wine, but I am a sucker for any place with a flight. Our waitress helped pick out which flight and had great advice. Highly recommend this spot for a cozy, chill, quaint evening. read more

What an amazing experience! The moment we walked in we were greeted by the host who offered a table inside or outside. The weather was beautiful, so we sat outside during our visit. We arrived for our "G.O.A.T. 101 Wine Class" which explored all high elevation wines. Our tasting came with 5-6 tastings and a cheese board. Our server was beyond intelligent and really made the effort to interact with us and make sure we were enjoying ourselves. Our tasting offered us 50% off a bottle to take home. We were able to chose our favorite of the wines we tasted (Tempranillo from Spain) and saved the bottle at home for a special occasion. Overall this atmosphere is great and the decorations are unique. The employees really make this place shine I must say. Would love to come back very soon! read more

Came here last night where there was four of us but the waiter brought one menu, two water cups. Made zero eye contact when discussing the one menu brought. I ordered the wine, yet when it was brought out they asked someone else at the table to taste it. The person that sat us did not take our order. The one who took the order did not give us the check. The place was not busy.. May try again in the future and hope that this service was unintentional. read more

Extremely disappointed this neat little place has changed so much. They had a very claustrophobic tent covering the patio. As strict as they are with Covid rules here, you'd think they would remove these for fresh air. What bothered me the most was the fact that you have to order AND pay online. I don't like to enter my cc online anywhere! It's also annoying having to walk inside and talk to the staff about the different types of wines in a flight. There is literally NO customer service! I want the interaction of a helpful server. The cheese board tray was disappointing as well for $15. There was no hard cheese to go with the meats and there was more bread than meat and cheese. Overall, I think this place has gotten cheap and lazy. I gave it 2 stars only because I love the old charm it still carries. read more
