    Drove 45 minutes to check this place out and see Rob Boyle. So glad we did! Great atmosphere, service, food, drinks and entertainment. Can't wait to return!

    Cute little place for drinks and bar food..
    Maria R.

    Cute place for drinks with friends and bar food. Love this place. They make you feel like home. They do provide a lot of live music in the back. Stacie is awesome and makes really great drinks. She is very knowledgeable about the area.

    Wine Slushies!
    Ally C.

    A must stop when in downtown Waterloo. A great rustic bar with a unique interior and back patio. We ordered drinks at the inside bar and went straight outside where there was live music on a Sunday afternoon. Great variety of wine and beer as well as a few speciality cocktails offered. There's definitely something for everybody! We chose Wine Slushies and would definitely recommend at least getting one, if not two! They were offering pizzas only when we stopped in on a Sunday afternoon. However a menu we saw on the bar saw other items such as small plates/appetizers - not sure when/if those items are available. Pizzas descriptions looked good however we just stopped in for drinks. Unique bar that you should definitely make a stop next time you're in Waterloo. If nothing else, walk thru to see the rustic and unique architecture.

    First off don't go by the name. This place is more than a wine bar. It's good food. Amazing Old Fashions made by Fern and a great place to relax and hear the bands or chill with friends. The appetizers were all amazing.

    The beams floor and ceiling are from three old barns They pilfered in Kentucky
    Tina S.

    If you did not hear the story of this place, you would not believe that this bar was not original. The floor, ceiling and beams were rescued from three barns in Kentucky. The owners and their families spent the last year of their lives pouring themselves into the Vintage Wine Bar. It just opened, but I did not feel any kinks of newness. The wine menu was nice and they had some specialty drinks (mimosa, etc.) plus beer. They will be having live music and adding food. The back has a beautiful seating area with firepits. Stop in now and come back often.

    Tonight's menu, but changes frequently.

The cheese dip…read moreserved with the Bretzels seemed like it was definitely the Tostitos cheese dip in a jar, but warmed up. The toasted ravioli were the worst of my life which is so confusing like how is it possible to make fried food taste bad? I've had better from the freezer isle. My sister ordered the Mediterranean flatbread and it was weird. Didn't seem to truly be Mediterranean inspired and everyone who tried it disliked it. This place used to be packed and it was mostly empty. The strawberry sangria was SO watered down. I had 3 and didn't feel like I consumed any alcohol & certainly couldn't taste any. It was like watered down strawberry juice. The employees were nice, but they don't check on you at the table. You have to bring your cups and dishes back to the bar when you're done. I just don't know if this place will survive if they don't make some huge changes. My family and I used to love coming here, but the ambiance, food and drink offerings, and service is poor. Breaks my heart to see this place go downhill.

Once an AMAZING place but no oversight from the owners who allow their employees to scare people off. Maybe if this places loses enough business, they will fire their staff and replace them with employees that do their jobs and stay out of drama. We have enough bars in Wentzville we can go to, we don't need this. Just far too much attitude, drunk employees while on the job, one bartender that takes a cut from "helping" someone use the gambling machine while flirting to get that cut, nights where the staff dress like prostitutes (this isn't the Goat, folks), and another that dated a regular and when it didn't end well the guy ended up being lied about and banned (she does nothing but talk about this dude all night though. Never met him, yet feel like I know him). Now, she's chased off another group of regulars by making false accusations. Just serve drinks and do your job. I shouldn't KNOW about all of this, but I sat at the bar watching sports and she jabbered ALL NIGHT ABOUT IT to anyone who was there. I made the mistake of going back. Same bartender. Same result. I just come there to blow off steam and have a couple of drinks after work. I don't need to hear about the people you have decided are no longer welcome there because you personally don't like them. Just a toxic environment under the surface unfortunately. My circle of friends have all stopped going, but will give it a chance one day because it used to be the best local bar we had. I suggest to anyone considering this place to avoid it for now.

Keep walking and you enter the bar area with other rooms off to the side. The staff are warm and welcoming. They greet you as you enter and direct you to seating. I sat at the bar and at one of the small seating areas and both were comfortable and cozy. The decor inside is what makes this place so charming! Antique furniture, couches, tables and cozy chairs at the bar! There is just a warm, comfortable and cozy vibe from the building, decor and the amazing staff! They have a several page long wine menu that includes glasses and wines by the bottle. If you love wine you will not be disappointed! But it doesn't end with wine...specialty cocktails, beers, and more. Look to the board to the left of the bar for other delightful specials. I tried the coconut hot toddy and it was yummy!

From the reservation, to the hostess greeting us and helping us even though we arrived an hour early, to the desserts. The server was knowledgeable and helpful in choosing our food and drinks. It's a small menu, but clearly that allows and incredible focus on the quality and the details. I cannot imagine being unhappy with anything listed.

It was decently busy for a Wednesday night but there was plenty of bar seating. The decor is beautiful and I especially appreciated their carefully curated glass and tableware--all stunning. Our bartender, whose name I fail to remember, was excellent. She had great beer recommendations. We tried the Hefe Weissbier (my favorite, which paired perfectly with both appetizers), the Meteor Pils, and the Gaffel Kolsch. I'd recommend all of them if you're a beer drinker! The spinach dumplings are a must. They are bursting with spinach flavor and swimming in a rich brown butter sauce. We also tried the alpine dip, which comes with an enormous soft pretzel. It was okay, but the dip wasn't exactly what we were expecting. I'd probably pass on the alpine dip next time. Overall an amazing experience and I look forward to enjoying a full meal there next visit. Be advised that they pride themselves on seasonal menus so if you're eyeing a menu item, get yourself there to try it before it's gone!
