We came here for trivia, which was a blast. The charcuterie board with wine and friendly competition made it a great night. The wine was pretty good and they had a good few to pick from and purchase. The charcuterie board also came out pretty quickly. We planned to go back but they no longer host trivia, so I'm not sure when we'll be stopping by again. read more

If you live in Williamsburg and are a wine drinker, and you don't frequent this beautiful place, you are missing out! Incredible service, friendly people, and the best charcuterie board I've ever had! read more

The Wine Seller - Charcuterie for 3 - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

We love to grab a few bottles of wine to take home, but this time we also sat at the bar and enjoyed some food. This is not a fast food restaurant so don't expect your order to come out fast. I can say it is worth the wait! The staff is friendly and helpful too. read more

Very cool place with a great selection and balance of commercial brands of wine vs small esoteric producers. I can only rate on the selection as I didn't return for the full bar service they offer, but would've if we had more time while in town. Worth a visit if you're a wine lover. read more

This place is great! They have had different owners in the past 5-6 years, and the current owners have taken drinks and food up a notch. The wine and beer selections are excellent and I love that you can grab a glass from the bar as you shop--and order good food to boot. Music on the weekends is a terrific addition. read more

I swear, if you don't look a certain way (e.g. over 60, dressed preppy), these folks don't give a fart about you. Irony, the owner/manager (?) certainly doesn't have that appearance himself. I come in at 1pm on a Thursday for lunch and a glass of wine. Albariño was the white of the day. It was too green for me so I ended up leaving more than half the glass behind (and anyone who knows me, that never happens). I was looking forward to some Brie and apple crostini and a PLT (prosciutto, arugula, and tomato) sandwich, but the owner/manager was too busy with his tasting with a wine merchant to bother with me and the second employee apparently doesn't cook. I waiting 20 mins sipping terrible wine and finally got up, paid for my glass, and left. Don't come here unless you are just picking up a bottle or two. The terrible service is not worth it for anything else. read more

So glad The Wine Seller is under new management! We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed celebrating St Patrick's Day! They offer a great selection of wines and delicious appetizers, along with fun entertainment. Everyone seemed to have had a great time! We look forward to bringing in more local friends and out to town guest. Customer service is key! read more

the bartender was very nice and accommodating. I attended an event and got hurt and the owner was actually kind but his partner or friend not sure who it was? Was very nasty and accused me of hurting myself in the restroom when in fact it was the lack of their up keep why I got hurt. Always sad to leave a bad review for small business but his friend was rude. I did go to the er and tried to call multiple times, but never was able to get through the business or his personal cell phone while I was in the er. I will never say dont go to a mom pop but I will say proceed with caution and just don't get hurt because no one will care read more

We had a work function at the wine cellar. It was a really good experience especially for how many people they were having to serve. We had a pick-your-own charcuterie with delicious cheeses and meats. The service was wonderful and the owner was really friendly. I loved the wine filled walls and their selection was great! read more

Showed up at 1145am and the doors are locked. Signage on the window says they're open from 9am-8pm Mon-Sat.

Food was above average, service was great, selection of tap beers was good, selection of wines was very good!

It was my first time here before I left for deployment and I was super excited they could make an order for me. I came back from deployment to pick it up and the lady at the counter was rude. She thought my IDs were fake, and when I tried taking my military ID back she didn't give it. I will not be going back here again. It was an unnecessary confrontation, when both of my identifications are valid. read more

Unexpected find after a disappointing experience at our planned lunch venue. We literally looked it up on the way back to the hotel and were blown away by the hospitality, food and wine. I had the delicious grilled cheese sandwich with bacon and tomato, while my husband had the meaty flatbread choice. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals and the wine we selected was really superb. This little gem will definitely be on our schedule to visit again on future trips to Williamsburg. read more

A great hidden gem in the 'burg! Not only do they have a great selection of wine, there is also a nice assortment of stouts, ipas, ales, mixed in with a few ciders and meads. A bonus is they have a nice assortment of local beers on tap. You can bring your growler and get it filled and sit down and enjoy s glass or two while you wait. Cozy atmosphere, family friendly, nicely decorated, friendly and knowledgeable staff, some food choices like cheeses and chocolate. Easy to get to location with lots of parking. Highly recommended. If you like beer and wine it's a must see and visit! read more

Great wine and craft beer selections every day of the week. We enjoy the (free) tastings on Friday - usually wine, but they do rotate beer. The staff have always been amazing, even when crowded. Their deli/kitchen has a good selection of flatbreads, charcuterie boards, and sandwiches or munchies. There's tables at the back to chill as a group, play games, etc. read more

Great wine selection similar to the Cheese Shop basement on D.O.G. I buy my Amarone at both. Excellent beer and cigar selection and really good sandwiches if you're not in a hurry (as you shouldn't be for a good sandwich and drink). Best Reuben in town IMHO. The place has transformed from more of a wine bar to hipster beer bar (with music tastes as well) over the past few years. No TV or other distractions. Highly recommend for a casual lunch or dinner whether you're a wine or beer aficionado. read more

They actually deserve 10 stars. I was turned onto The Wine Seller when I was attempting to locate a specific beer from a small Norther Virginia brewery. Being the only place in the area to carry the beer, I ordered it online for curbside pickup. I got an email within 2 mins that the beer was ready for pickup. Pulled up curbside and was greeted quickly by a friendly employee that thanked me for my business (and not one of those generic thanks, but a sincere one) and put my beer in the car. I am now a loyal customer. Give them a try and I promise you will not be disappointed! read more

Went to this place last week, and I'm afraid it's a one and done for me. I was looking for a Champagne as a gift, and since the selection was so limited I started looking for another wine. No one ever came over to help. Fine. So I take the bottle that I selected myself and walked over to the register where a guy with long hair was standing. The guy just ignored me then walked over to the bar which I realized he was tending. I get it if someone has to cover a bar, but you NEVER walk away from a customer without acknowledging them with at least "I'm covering the bar, but my co-worker will check you out in just a minute" or any basic polite form of acknowledgement. Totally rude. Then the guy who eventually came over and did check me out (never cracked a smile or said anything like "did you find everything you needed" etc) did the most lame job of gift wrapping the not-cheap bottle of wine that I bought. He just slipped in a silver cover and said "there ya go". Sorry, but at these prices, you don't get me back with that lackluster service. read more

Pretty good beer selection and there's wine for everyone. The beers on tap were awesome. Just wish the staff were a little friendlier.

Whether you're looking for a bottle of wine to pair with dinner, a glass of craft beer after work or perhaps a cigar before a night out, stop by The Wine Seller. Selection is diverse and the staff are fantastic. They offer an assortment of meats and cheeses to snack on while you enjoy your beverage(s). Also, they offer a fantastic wine club to satisfy both your thirst and your curiosity. Best wine bar in town. read more

Unbeknownst to most, they have a really nice little deli inside that makes wonderful sandwiches. They also have an impressive beer selection and employees that clearly know what they are talking about and can steer you in the right direction. I had a great roast beef and bleu cheese sandwich with a VBC Adroit Theory double IPA. They were both wonderful. I recommend this place if you like beer, wine, good cheese, sandwiches and/or conversations with beer and wine connoisseurs. read more

This is my go to place for wine and beer in the Williamsburg area. Very professional and committed to assisting and any way they can. Wether I want a suggestion for a wine or beer: or I want help getting a wine i want to either try or get more of, John and Pam are there to assist. A great team. read more

Great place, first time in the area Staff were very attentive and very knowledgeable about the product they we're serving . I'd recommend this establishment. read more

Coming from New York, I'm accustomed to knowledgeable wine sellers, and I have to say the wine-shop owners/employees in NYC tend to be a more personal, passionate bunch than your average retail person. But all New York experiences pale in comparison to the customized treatment I got from Amber at The Wine Seller this week! I called in, stumbled through some semi-clumsy descriptions of the kind of wine we like, and Amber was back over e-mail with a personalized list of recommendations, each accompanied by a really expressive tasting note. We ended up getting five bottles, broke into the first last night, and it was everything she promised. Makes us wish we lived here. I would be at this place every week. read more

Yes, the wine seller. Buyer beware, the store next door, Publix, has the same wine $20 cheaper. As a tourist to Williamsburg, I was thoroughly dissatisfied with the service provided. I went to this place and spent $80 and returned within 10 minutes after seeing next door was cheaper. They do not accept returns or your money back. Likely because they know they are ripping you off on prices. The staff was rude and unhelpful. The man at the bar rolled his eyes at me and the woman had an attitude. I will not be recommending this place to friends and family who plan to visit here. read more

I currently live in the Washington DC area but I have family living literally right around the corner from the wine seller location in Williamsburg. So,I visited the place looking for a sweet white wine, specifically moscato. I know very little about wine, therefore decided to ask the cashier the difference about 2 moscoatos that I found on the shelf. The cashier was not able to tell me, as he said he didn't know. (I was a bit confused as the name of the place is called the wine seller and you would think the employee would be a bit more knowledgeable). So I ended up taking 1 of the 2 bottles I picked up. It was soooooo good,I just knew I had to go back next weekend for more. Well, Friday arrived once more and I wasn't gonna make it on time before they closed, therefore I asked my cousin to go purchase a bottle on my behalf. My cousin said he was unable to locate the bottle,but I was so looking forward to the wine, that I had to make sure myself. So I decided to call the store directly about 15 mins before they closed. The employee picked up and I proceeded to ask about the wine (I didn't have the exact name to the bottle,but I did have an exact description: sweet white wine,moscato in a green bottle with bumble bees around the neck of the bottle) well the employee, said "we don't have it". I was expecting a "however, we should get more next week" or something more than just "we don't have it" I decided to ask one more follow up question,in hopes that the employee would deliver a more customer friendly response. However, the employee did not provide any further information. It was like pulling teeth, trying to get a decent respond from him. After about 6 questions, I finally got the answer I was looking for: "the wine buyer should be be back on Monday,please check back on Monday ". OMG. Needless to say, I ended up going alll the way to newport news in order to purchase the 6 bottles I was ready to buy from the wine seller location. Had I experienced a more customer friendly experience via the phone, without a doubt,I would've waited to speak with a wine buyer and come In that following weekend .sadly, Bieng that the customer service was not friendly nor helpful, the drive to Newport news is one worth taking. The timeframe of this event was the weekend the GM got married. I know this because in one of the many unhelpful responses the employee gave me,he mentioned " we are closed tomorrow,no one will be here tomorrow because the GM is getting married" read more

Adorable concept. A real caring touch on a robust wine and beer selection. Was loading up on some wine for our hotel as we are on vacation, but this place could entice me back for a glass of wine or cigar on premise. The woman (Pam) who helped us not only helped us with wine recommendations but also on ideas of places to dine while staying locally. She treated the place like she was the owner; with real care and deliberation. Very impressed. My hometown could use a cute spot like this. read more

I tried the Wine Seller on a whim, and was pleasantly surprised. They have a good beer selection, and also some wines in the $10-20 range (in addition to plenty of more expensive wines). For beers they start at around grocery store prices, and go up from there. I was expecting them to be more expensive than your standard grocery store, but was gladly wrong. You can buy individual beers of some brands, which is nice if you want to try something without committing. I got 1 can of tasty oatmeal stout which I needed for a recipe. They also have an interesting selection of sandwiches and apparently have regularly beer and wine tastings. I plan to come back and check all of that out. So-- in summary, this is a great place to get beer and wine for prices that rival the average grocery store-- but with the added plus that you're supporting a small, local business. read more

Really great store. Love their selection of wines, cigars and beer. I was surprise at the knowledge of the staff. We had just got done eating and was taking a quick walk and notice the wine tasting set up from the front window. So we took a chance and walked in. I tasted one of the craft brews that they had on tap from Virginia Beer Company and we also ended up buying a few bottles of wine. I am planing another visit soon when I am in the area and looking forwarded to some new finds. read more

I needed alcohol delivered for my husband's birthday as a surprise! I'm in CA, but he was traveling and sad that he was gone for his birthday. So I called and told them what type I needed delivered, and they were super helpful and nice to work with! My husband was SHOCKED and so excited when he finished work that day and went to his hotel room to find cold BEER! :) read more

The best sandwiches in Williamsburg! What I've eaten here is fantastic. It's easy to see why there's a regular crowd at the bar. Great beer and wine to drink in house and a great selection to take home. I am from out of town, but anytime I come to Williamsburg, this is my go-to. I cannot even tell you how delicious the different sandwiches are. This business is nothing short of five stars!!!!! It is a 10 out of 10. read more

Stop what you're doing, and locate them on all social media platforms. Frequent free beer and wine tastings. They have food! Growler fills and often limited releases for bottles- Doubled the craft beer tap selection this year and Amber is one of the best things to happen for craft beer in Williamsburg. Beer, wine, cigars, AMAZING staff. Go! read more

Williamsburg's best kept secret! In addition to an amazing wine selection and a staff that will help you pick the perfect bottle with very little guidance, they have 12 beer taps and an impressive selection of craft beer to go. Do not sleep on the cheese boards-- beautifully crafted and the perfect accompaniment to cracking open a bottle of wine. read more

Nice selection of beers and wines. Alan chose a couple of beers and I decided on a Rosenblum Cellars Zinfandel, Vintner's Cuvee XXX. The woman who checked us out was friendly and helpful. We asked why Ukrop's didn't sell alcohol and she said it was a family decision on the part of the owners. The beer and wine were both good. Imagine my surprise when I remembered after dinner to check the ROTD and it was for Rosenblum Cellars! Cool, eh? read more

Asked these people if they hold things for people. They said yes. Went to pick it up and nobody knew what I was talking about. They called someone who worked earlier. The person said they didn't hold it. They just assumed they would have some. They offered me no consolations just a half hearted apology with a phone to one ear. Bad service. Go to The Bottle Shop for beer and ANYWHERE ELSE for wine. read more

The Wine Seller is my go-to store for wine - and, increasingly, beer - in Williamsburg. They have a great selection of wine and six beers at a time on tap, and they offer free wine tastings on Friday and Saturday evenings. With the addition of Cork Cafe, you can have a sandwich or salad and enjoy a pint. read more

Wide selection of wines, moderate on craft beers. 10 selections on tap with growler option, which is always great. When they didn't have what I was looking for they kindly pointed me in the direction of two other stores. Excellent customer service!! read more

Stopped in for the first time today and will definitely be back! A curated selection of wine, craft beer and cheese. Multiple taps of notable beer from the local area and region. China was super personable and helpful. Cheers! read more
