Probably one of the best little wine shops in Buffalo. Paula and her crew always do a great job. They know every bottle in the shop and they stand behind each one. Also, free wine tastings on Fridays. They have had some of the most interesting wines to taste. We even did a sake class that was fantastic! read more

I agree with some other reviewers that the store is tight. However it's because they are squeezing in as many wines as possible, and compared to other local wine stores, you will find wines here that you cannot find anywhere else locally. We came for a specific wine that we were not able to find anywhere else locally, and during our visit (on a Friday), we got to sample a few wines and were treated with personalized service that I've never experienced at any other wine store. Paradise wines specializes in sustainable, biodynamic, and small batch wines however their prices are still very affordable. I'm very happy with the wines and service we got, and will definitely make the trip to come back soon. read more

You will step into paradise if you step into Paradise Wine! There are great choices on all price points for organic and/or biodynamic wines, natural wines and small batch producers of spirits and wines. If you've never tried an organic and/or biodynamic wine you are in for a treat. With less sulfites and less chemicals these wines are almost health food! Do yourself a favor and check out Paradise. Covid procedures are online orders only at this time. You can pick it up at the curb or they will deliver a $35 or more order for free in the city...within a 10 mile radius the minimum order for free delivery is $125. read more

Amazingly broad selection of interesting wines paired with expert guidance. A destination.

I've heard many good things about this place so, finally, I decided to stop in. What i found was actually a rather cold welcoming although the other staff person was having a great conversation with another customer. I wandered around a little bit and was a little confused by the order and signage. I must admit, I don't know much about wine, so that could be part of it. When I went to the cash register, the person didn't acknowledge me for a bit. And then, after checking out, the person just sat down as opposed to offering or even talking about a receipt. There wasn't even a 'you can take your card out' or 'thank you' or 'have a good day.' I found that weird. The last thing that makes this 4 stars is that this is not a place for a person of size. I felt very uncomfortable browsing the store. The aisles are narrow - much narrower than other places. And if you had any sort of device for mobility, you wouldn't be able to browse anything. I know it's to try to get the most in the space, but this is just a yelp warning that it's not comfortable if you need/want space. I appreciate the sustainability and organic nature of things. It's what keeps this at a 4 instead of a 3. read more

I love this place. Paula and her staff are always super helpful and kind. I've tried some great wines from shopping here, and I love knowing that they are organic and/or sustainably grown/produced. The shop itself appears small from the outside, but you'd be surprised by how many aisles and shelves of wine are inside! It's a real nice vibe when you walk in. There is a little lot on the left of the entrance but it can be tough to get out of. It's not usually hard to get a spot in the street, especially after Remedy House has closed for the day. I also like this place because I know they support local nonprofits with in-kind donations as well. I love being able to support a business that supports the community! read more

Solid neighborhood store. I've been on a natural wines phase and Paradise has quite the selection. Their labels were very detailed on flavor profiles and production. If I lived in Buffalo, all of my wine funds would be spent here. read more

I was impressed with this little wine store. All the wines are organic and biodynamic, and they are working to add more local wines as well. They all sell spirits including some from the Hudson Valley with lovely little bottles and all Hudson Valley fruits - peach brandy, cherry brandy, pear brandy, apple vodka, and a nice smooth whiskey they were sampling. It was nice to see a variety of price points. The owners were happy to discuss the wine and what they knew about them, but will also be adding tags to each wine so you don't have to talk to anyone if you don't want to. The original floors were salvaged and add a homey rustic vibe to the place. One of the owners us currently researching which wines are vegan, but when I went today, there were four reds clearly labeled as such. The vegan wines ranged from $8.99 to around $25. read more

Lots of love for this little wine store. The offerings here are niche, organic, and largely from sustainable processes, and the passion the owners and employees have for their products shines through in everything from the curated selection itself to the detailed, first person descriptions labeling every last bottle in the shop. These people are serious about wine. I made a passing comment about a chardonnay I'd seen on shelves when I lived in Washington to the owner, who happened to know everything about the bottle from its grapes to the vineyard's owner to its exact flavor profile. As a bonus, the stuff here covers a huge price range - most is in the $10-$15 area, but they also stock high end bottles. This is an awesome thing to have in this area. Buffalo gets cooler every day. read more

What a gem in the heart of Buffalo. The wine selection is eclectic, worldly, and thoughtful. Whoever is working takes the time to educate and offer helpful suggestions and they offer tastings occasionally. It's also so refreshing to see the neighborhood growing and buzzing with so many shops and businesses. Shopping local is the way to go and Paradise Wine has everything you're looking for when it comes to wine and spirits. read more

I walked by a few times and it just looked so cute. I called yesterday because I saw they were doing curbside pickup and I was really craving a Chardonnay. I told the staff member that picked up what I was looking for and they picked a wine for me based on my taste and price range. They also recommended a second bottle for me, another full bodied white, which I'm really excited to try. Overall a great experience and I can't wait to try something new the next time I order from them read more

Paula knows her stuff and the friendly staff help out to figure out exactly what kind of wine you're looking for. Generous with samples and friday tastings. Local favorite and I love that the team tries each wine and winery it uses. Beautiful space, great wines, friendly humans. Cant beat it! read more

Excellent. I was expecting something smaller for some reason but I stepped inside to find a very nice selection of wine, all beautifully merchandised with display tags containing helpful descriptions. The owner, Paula, was also very helpful in sharing her knowledge. She asked me about my preferences and then suggested four wines, telling me a little about each. I purchased two bottles and the one that I tried tonight was fantastic - dry but still fruity; exactly what I told her I like. You might expect a boutique wine shop to be super pricey but this store offers a selection across a wide range of price points. While there were certainty more expensive bottles available, my two purchases came to a total of about $25. This is a great place to explore some new options. I really look forward to returning. read more

Finally made it here! I've been wanting to check it out for so long ! The staff were so helpful and very knowledgeable. I love being able to describe the flavors I'm in the mood for and being handed perfect bottles of wine. I'm very happy with everything I purchased and look forward to going back. read more

My brother introduced me to these women 2 years ago. They are located in a handsome storefront on Rhode Island. I found them to be very knowledgable about the wines they sell and helpful when choosing the right wine to serve read more

* This is The Best wine shop! Paradise! It is curated with care and expertise with a fine selection of wine at every price point. You are also in luck if you'd like biodynamic, sustainably grown, and/or organic. One of the best features is that if you let Paula know what you're looking for, she'll have great suggestions, whether for an occasion, to pair with particular food, or to suit your individual taste. There is a surprisingly large and varied selection of wine & spirits here in this friendly refreshed space. I also like that there are unique finds including a lot of our fine local products for the connoisseurs on my gift lists. The weekly wine tasting is fun, a great opportunity to sample a couple to several wines and to learn a bit, too. If you sign up for the Wine Club, you'll get a weekly email previewing the wines that will be featured (and discounted) at the tasting, so you can read up on what you'll be sipping and then try before you buy. I usually love at least one of the wines featured and have found some new favorites this way. Parking is easy on this street, right in front or right around the corner. read more

I'm so thankful for paradise because it's only a block away from my apartment. ALSO because the staff here is amazing - so helpful and kind! I wandered in and they helped me find exactly what I was looking for! They have a large selection of wine to choose from and the staff there definitely knows what they're talking about. For some reason I expected something not as good as what it is. It's a little more pricey than you're average neighborhood wine joint but definitely worth it! Stop in and check out everything they have to offer! read more

My favorite wine store in Buffalo! I shop here every time I visit from NYC because it is so well curated and there are always new and exciting wines and producers. Amazing organic and natural wine selection, the best of any store in Buffalo. Great selection of regular (not necessarily funky, wild, natural) wines as well. Paula and her staff have impeccable taste and make great recommendations. Shop local and treat yourself! read more

Favorite wine store in Buffalo. It isn't as close to my house as some other, but I will go out of my way to visit Paradise. I've only met Paula, but she is so helpful. She is passionate about what she does, and that shows. She gives me lots of time to browse, but is always there to answer any questions I have. The variety, both in wines and price points, is amazing. And make sure you join their wine club email list! They have some great deals and tastings. read more

Stopped in for the first time this morning and what a treat! Enjoyed browsing the really interesting selection of mostly new-to -me labels. The owner's passion for wine is on full display and she assisted me with my selections. I picked up three reds and can't wait to try them. Do yourself a favor and visit this gem on the West side. read more

Paradise is my new favorite wine store in Buffalo, no doubt about it. Excellent selection of wines, excellent prices (good range of affordable but great wines as well as some high end bottles) and excellent customer service. All of the wines are hand selected and tasted by Paula, meaning she is always ready to offer suggestions and answer questions, even often inquiring "what are you in the mood for" that day. That's the personal touch you don't often get anymore. What an awesome addition to the neighborhood and a real treat for wine enthusiasts of every level! read more

Such an excellent place!! Packed with excellent wines carefully chosen by Paula, based on her extensive knowledge of wines, regions, and even the people who grow the grapes and make the wine. Paula will guide you to exactly what you like, even if you have no idea what that might be. Bonus: not all great wines are expensive so shopping here won't break the bank. read more

Paradise Wine has changed my life! It's a beautiful store, filled with a wonderful selection of wines and liquors. The owner, Paula, is friendly, helpful & very knowledgeable. She & Lauren have great taste! I'll never shop anywhere else. read more
