Today, March 20th, the Den had a Grand Tasting…read more Ten tables offered over 60+ types of wines and spirits for tasting. The event was really well attended and I loved some of the specialty Gins they had. Some of the wines were OK, some of them were really good. They had a charcuterie table courtesy of the East End restaturant. Great event, great tastings, lots of learning as the hosts were very good about explaining about the different products they were pouring. Excellent !

Visited with a friend and it was a first visit for both of us. We sat down at the bar and were…read moreimmediately drawn in by the casual but classy vibe. My friend knows much more about wine than I do, so he was the decision maker for our wine choices and we ordered a 1/2 bottle of red which we both found to be very delicious. Of course, we had to try some food too and the small bites menu was perfect with something to satisfy nearly every taste. We opted for the meat charcuterie, and it was beautifully presented with enough for the two of us to share. There is also a cheese charcuterie on the menu, but unfortunately there is not an option for a combined meat and cheese plate. We sat, sipped, and tasted for a while and never felt rushed. The atmosphere was so comfortable and we'll definitely consider going back here again.

I didn't have the best time at Providence Wine Bar…read more This might sound a little haughty, but hear me out: I can drink wine at home. I can browse a liquor store & pick out a bottle that exactly fits my preferences, my mood, & my budget. I can bring it home & uncork the wine, checking the cork for freshness. I can pull out my special glassware & pour myself a glass of wine & enjoy it on my own couch. So why go out to a wine bar, if not for the wine? For me, it's for the ambience & the experience. Both of those things at Providence Wine Bar were lacking. The lights were too bright (overhead & fluorescent) & the music was too loud (& just bad). The employees seemed both bored & nervous, with not much to do to occupy themselves. I was one of the only people in the bar, so I felt like I was under scrutiny - I'm certain this wasn't intentional but it was unfortunately how it came across. I brought a book but couldn't focus because of the lights & the music. I even caught myself with my fingers in my ears, trying to muffle the sounds of 2010s hyper pop. I have nothing against 2010s hyperpop, it's just that there's a time & place for everything, & maybe that isn't at a wine bar at 8 PM on a Wednesday. I just wanted to be done with my glass of wine so that I could leave. All of that being said, I wish them the best. It seems like they need a good manager's touch.

Contrary to the other reviews of the service here, I received a warm welcome walking into the store…read moreand was immediately attended to by both working gentlemen. I had a few items already in mind so it didn't take long for them to locate them for me. When asked about some very specific New York style Gin, they immediately told me that that was something they didn't carry but would be willing to source if I were to call ahead before visiting again. I really appreciated that offer and may take them up on that next time since Providence is still a much closer drive than upstate New York. I guess what really fascinated me about this place more than the wines stocked on the shelves was the fact that this used to be a purveyor/architect's office/storage where they stored their blueprints. As such, the shelves where all these simple fine wines rest on were once holding blueprints for buildings nearby. It made the whole store look extremely unique and similar to a library that had books up to the ceiling. I'll definitely be back to visit when in the area again. NOTE: They also carry a few nice NA beers and mocktails as well as drinks with THC.

They have wine tastings on Fridays from 4:30-6:30p. I stopped in here today to get some non-alcoholic beer and they had a few choices, including the well acclaimed Athletic brand. Nice staff.

I was looking for a specific wine and when I got on the Urban Wine & Spirits website, I saw the…read morewine I was looking for. I tried to order online but it would not let me do it, so I decided to drive over and get my wine. When I got there, I saw a small store with a section for wines, but they were not alphabetically organized nor really organized by country, wine type or any other category...basically they had a bunch of white wines in one area and a bunch of red wines in another area. I saw someone and I asked for my specific wine. He said that he had not seen that label in a while...and he then told me that the website had not been updated in years and they were trying to take it down.... Too bad that the information on the website was not reliable nor accurate. Not a great experience.

Family owned business in the heart of the West End…read more 1. Wonderful selection of beers and wines for such a small place. 2. Extremely helpful and friendly staff/owners. 3. It's a bright space, it's not a dingy corner liquor store. You won't run into any "riff raff" outside w being harassed etc. (note: this is my neighborhood and neighborhood riff raff doesn't bother met outside of other liquor stores, I'm just being matter of fact about if you'd like to avoid any hassles outside. 4. Being newer to the neighborhood. I love that let me go in there and practice my Spanish knowing that I still suck at it but I'm trying. One of the owners today taught me how to say so many different things when it came the liquor/beer business even though he was busy. It's a neighborhood business! They are here for all neighbors. I always feel welcome here. Thank you for your assistance always guys and gals who work here. Love, The chubby gringo who tries to speak broken Spanish (just to practice) every time he comes in there. Love Reyes liquors. Best shop in town.

Reyes Liquors has an appropriate selection of booze given the neighborhood…read more By appropriate, and suspending judgment (to each their own), here's a sample list of the very wide variety of selection and quality you can find here: Foolproof, Colt 45 malt liquor, Shipyard, Arbor Mist, Peak Organic, Sutter Home White Zinfandel, Moët & Chandon Rose Imperial, Casillero del Diablo, Jäger (ok fine. I judge the Jäger). I personally think you'll get a really bad hangover from a lot of the options here (esp. the wine), but the craft beer selection is surprisingly good and I love the mix-a-six. What I don't like about this place is that sometimes the pricing seems out of whack with alternatives, the price labeling can be better (there's been times I'd have to wait in line to get the register to scan an item to understand cost), and the parking situation can be a major cluster with patrons haphazardly blocking the road and private lot (common sense people, TRIPLE parking on the street and sidewalk and/or blocking the lot entrance in your car is rude!). I like Reyes Liquors just fine, I just wouldn't feel compelled to make a special visit if I wasn't already in the neighborhood.

It's located behind the first brick building in a sort of courtyard place up a ramp. Knowing that they were #107 helped. RiffRaff doesn't know what it wants to be. Is it a bar? Is it a bookstore? It wants to be both and successfully does neither. The place lacks a coherence to it. It's starkly divided into Bar an Bookstore, and the lighting is abhorrent on both sides. They want you to read here, but there's only seating in the bar area, which is pitch black except for an ugly neon blue sign. So I don't know how one could do that without straining their eyesight. I'm not a drinker, so I can't tell you about the bar, but the selection of books was sad and clearly curated for a very particular audience. Which is fine if you're boring. I'm boring. I like the occasional high brow literary BS. But I also like to see things explode and for there to be monsters. None of that here because RiffRaff is too cool, apparently. Book prices seemed reasonable, but nothing was interesting to me. Also, it was too hot in there and they were playing some awful nonsense bass music that was just thumping and made everyone talk too loud. I probably won't come back here unless I'm meeting up with someone. RiffRaff would do so much better with real lights and an open concept vibe and more books. I don't want to sit and read or write in a dirty bar.
