    This wine bar is sophisticated yet warm and cozy. I was there with a friend. We had 1/2 glasses of a very nice Zinfandel. We were embroiled in serious conversation, so I was not in a position to ask about their wine club. I would suggest when you you (pushy huh) check out the club. A patron is able to purchase a taste,a 1/2 glass,a full glass or a bottle. If you and or your company know what type of wine you want order bottles it's the most economic way to go. I definitely think wine drinking people will enjoy this little gem.

    Great service and great selections of wine. Server is very knowledgeable about the wine options and is accommodating. Atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for a first date or just relaxing with some friends. They also serve beer! If you're looking for a nice place with a great atmosphere, this is it!

    4/21/18 Update: This was a terrific and delicious event. Owner/Wine Steward Katie Bechkowiak, and Chef Arlen Coiley prepared a fabulous 5-course meal, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Katie's dinner concept is the reverse of usual dinners of this type - she chooses the wine, and the chef creates the dishes that will best showcase the wine (usually done the other way around). My favorite course was the first: Ling cod, spicy garlic oil, polenta cake, and shitake mushrooms - all foods I really like. My favorite wine was the Vigneti Le Monda Cab Franc - a beautiful Italian that was paired with the meat course (bottles for sale at a reasonable price!). The next Surrogate Chef dinner will be sometime in June. You won't want to miss it! Fun place with nice people. Large selection of reasonably priced wine, with small selection of snacks. Very social atmosphere, with coloring nights and other fun things.

    One of the best wine bars I've ever been to! The wine selection is wonderful and Katie (the owner) is absolutely fantastic and makes the entire experience relaxing and fun at the same time! I felt like an old friend as we chatted and laughed on and off the entire evening! I will be stopping in again soon!

    Excellent service! The owner Katie served us, and she was fabulous! We had a “Blinders Flight;” we had to guess the pours, and it was fun, unique twist on a traditional flight. Cheese plate and olives were also top-notch. Very friendly and accessible menu to thrill novices and aficionados alike. We’ll definitely be back!

    I had received a gift certificate so my husband and I went twice to Vinostology. Both times we enjoyed it. The last time there was a funny odour in the front window seats so we moved. No worries after that and the food, wine and service was great. A super place to go before you go out to dinner. I think the pillows should be laundered in the front seats??? IT IS A GREAT CONCEPT!

    Vinostrology is just what Bellingham needed. In a beer town this is the wine lovers dream. Katie (the owner) is the most informed wine enthusiast I know and she is always ready with a recommendation. The wine on tap is always good with a wide range of interesting choices. As far as food goes the small plates are reasonably priced but do yourself a favor and get the popcorn, they have elevated it into something that you will go out of your way to have again.

    I love that they always have a wide variety of wines to choose from, and Katie does an excellent job training her staff so they can help you make an informed (and accurate!) decision on the type of wine for you. The food they make is varied and truly complements the wine selection.

    We love this wine bar! Great atmosphere, great service, awesome choice of music!! This is such a breath of fresh air for downtown Bellingham - something unique and a place to have conversation with friends or just hang out and read a book with a flight of wine. We love the cheese and bread appetizer plate or whatever happens to be the "new" appetizer item and also the famous "bacon popcorn" - amazing!!
