  • 5/5 David Cabrera P. 2 years ago on Google
    Quite an elegant and fun place layout with, a good array of wine flights and a more than decent wine by the glass option. As soon as I walked in with no reservation Anabel made me feel at home with her particular English accent and that sparkle she has. I had a superb cheeseboard with the selection of your choice and the top-rated flight which was marvellous. She went above and beyond to make the best of my experience, was very knowledgeable and professional, definitely an asset to the company. If you are looking for a place to enjoy wine and appetisers, It's not a place to be missed, I'd highly recommend it.

    I had an amazing experience visiting this wine bar 2 weeks ago after just arriving in London. I was travelling alone but Fernando and his colleagues made me feel very comfortable as they were very welcoming. He had a very strong knowledge of wine demonstrated by his ability to determine the wines that suited my palate. Highly recommend going.

    This is my 3rd time at the wine bar- lovely atmosphere, delicious food and I love getting to taste their wines. My favourite is the Marlborough SB by F&M- fairly reasonable at £44. The service is always exceptional. Highly recommend.

    One of my favourite wine bars in London for three great reasons: (I) you can drink any wine from the wineshop for a corkage & (II) friendly staff & (III) great location

    Tucked away in the rear of the lower ground floor of the store is The Wine Bar. Decorated in wood with a centre bar you can sit at. I had lunch here and would happily come back again

    We had a decent and agreeable waitress. She was tolerant with us, portrayed the suppers thus amusing! The sustenance took truly long, But it was generally excellent. Somewhat costly however yet for London alright I presume. It is a little Restaurant and the Tables are crushed by one another.

    Just had a lovely time in this wine bar with my parents. Balraj (our server) was so kind and very knowledgeable. This made it extra special. A wonderful shopping pitstop!

    Jan and fernando looked after us like royalty. They work so hard and should be given a pay rise. We loved our experience so much, their expertise on wine and chutney was outstanding x

  • 4/5 Lilymae 7 months ago on Google
    Had a great experience, tried the wine flights so we got to taste 3 different wines. Only downside that it closed quite early so we didn’t get to spend as much time there as we would have liked

  • 1/5 Kerstin M. 1 year ago on Google
    Appalling. We made a reservation, were seated and then waited over 25 minutes for service, which never came. Gave up and went elsewhere. Don't bother - not worth your time or money.

  • 5/5 Pete C. 2 years ago on Google
    Good service. Amazing wines. Nice music. Great temperature.

  • 5/5 David Hale S. 4 years ago on Google
    Cozy warm hideaway in the belly of F&M. Wonderful wine list and charcuterie & cheese selections to pair with the vino. Prices are not as high as you might expect. Attention to detail is spot on. Good service, too.

  • 3/5 Adam S. 4 years ago on Google
    The wine is exceptional good for the value. I can say that I am impressed with the variety of wines and excellent quality of wines.

  • 5/5 Joe H. 5 years ago on Google
    Wonderful spending an afternoon tasting wines here. Staff genuinely interested in wine and thier customers. Most impressed how they have achieved a decent atmosphere here despite being right in the middle of the store.

    We had a very nice and friendly waitress. She was patient with us, described the meals and so funny! The food took pretty long, But it was very good. A bit expensive though but for London ok i guess. It is a small Restaurant and the Tables are squeezed next to each Other. It is a bit uncomfortable because you have to move your Chair if the waitress needs to Go by. It looks nice though.

    I had my first glass of English sparkling wine and it was delicious!!! The service was excellent:) I’d like to specifically mention Emily, who was very chatty and charming

    Kind staff, nice, responsive, however, it took too much time to place an order. All in all, nice ambiance, great location, little bit expensive.Great experience to drink wine with romance music.
