Owner is extremely rude. Kicked us out of the liquor store and said he was closed 12 minutes before his closing time. Guessing he didn't think we looked rich enough for his store. I Have never felt so mistreated in an establishment. Thought he was going to physically push us out of the store. Was there to purchase some nice wine. Absolutely will not be back. read more

I recently visited Vines & Canines for the first time, and I seriously couldn't love it more! I was there for a pop-up, so it wasn't exactly the typical experience, but I did shop around and order from the bar while I was there, so I feel like I did get a good feel of the space and the staff. First, I love that this is a wine (and spirits) shop, and bar, that's dog friendly! How great is that?! I didn't have my puppy with me on this visit, but I can't wait to bring him back! What's better than sitting around a beautiful sitting area, or even better our on the patio, with a glass of wine (or bourbon) and your furry friend? The atmosphere in this spot is great! As I mentioned, they have an outdoor seating area, as well as ample seating inside. They have both tables in the front, as well as a great comfy seating area a little further into the space. We had a great time sipping mimosas (and a Bellini for me) while we visited. They also have a bar inside the seating area where you can order wine, liquor, or cocktails. They have chalkboard menus containing almost anything your heart could desire. And I was really impressed with their selection of bourbons, both behind that bar and for sell within the shop (which lives in the front of the space). And the staff was great! I interacted with 4 or 5 staff members while I was there and they were all really friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a spot to pick up a bottle, gift shop, or just a place to have a drink, I definitely recommend Vines & Canines! read more

Ok so I have to write this review but this is an absolute hidden gem (or maybe I just discovered it). I was on Yelp looking for a chill wine bar and this place looked like it fit the vibe we were going for. It seems like a speakeasy with only wine and bourbon inside the store. You can purchase bottles or have a glass in one of their quiet corners or even outside. It's definitely a great place to go to for a night cap or even a relaxed girls night. read more

So this is by far my absolute favorite wine bar hangout. It's my go-to "grab-a-drink and stay a while" place. I've brought several friends here and we love the wine and cocktail choices, the laid-back atmosphere, and our personalized wine experience given by Logan (he typically works during the weekend). Vines is also dog friendly, so I've brought my pup here to celebrate many occasions with me. Also, make sure to check out their wine tasting classes!

I like this place just fine Out of ten stars I'd give it a nine. At the bar there is usually never a line. You can bring your pup and drink some wine. You have to order elsewhere if you're trying to dine. If you're reading this it is surely a sign, That you should take your family and friends to Vines & Canines read more

For serious! How is this place not a 5* across the board! For starters - they have alcohol. Wine and bourbon. You like wine and bourbon, don't you? Of course you do. They're lovely. Bourbon is a delightful nectar given to us from the heavens. This place sells it. Wine is a spiritual gift, bidden to those whom are willing to accept it. Vines and Canines present it to those willing to accept it. Moreover - I have a puppy. His name is Cooper. He walks into Vines and he is the hit of the party. People promise to kidnap him. He is gorgeous and is treated like an absolute king. You can expect all these things at Vines. A place of tasty beverage, excellent customer service, and people envying your dogs. read more

No matter what you want, interesting cocktail, wine, bourbon, conversation, and more, you can probably find it here. Logan is a true connoisseur of liquor, a dichotomy of astute intellectualism and a torrent of tattoos. Whether you're talking about the latest wonder of the world or the newest innovation in whisky he will partake with genuine zeal. The atmosphere in Vines is always perfect, the people are great, and everything you want to drink is probably inside, so come on in! You don't need to have a dog but they are welcome! Couches, chairs, patio space and low noise levels make this a great place for close conversation among friends. read more

This is such a special spot. Exactly one year ago today my boyfriend and I went on our first date here. We started with a wine tasting with Logan, which expertly helped us to select the perfect bottle to share. The vibe was great and the room was filled with customers that acted more like family. Board games, food delivery, pizza, dancing...they even had a chocolate fondue set up - what more could you want? Fast forward to our anniversary date night last night. It was none other than Logan that picked up the phone when my boyfriend called ahead to let them know our plan to return and celebrate. He not only remembered us from our first date, but when we arrived, wished us a Happy Anniversary and had set up a full chocolate & wine tasting spread at the very same table. The wine selection was just as excellent as I remember, puppies just as cute, and vibe just as cozy. Thank you Vines for a wonderful night, and for being one of those special local spots for Louisvillians or visitors. read more

I believe Vines and Canines was opened just for me. I love great patios, music, wine, bourbon, dogs, and cool people. Vines and Canines has all of this and does it perfectly. If you haven't been here, you MUST try it. It is a fantastic place to take some friends, have a double date, or lounge out with your pooch. (inside or out!) Total slice of awesomeness. Its a lot bigger inside than what you would expect. There are comfy lounge chairs, barstools, and patio furniture. Take your pick. Lots of wine to choose from and everything I saw was around $30 and under for a bottle. You can either buy a bottle or buy something by the glass ($5-7 per glass?). You even pay once you are done and leaving, making it some like a cool, friendly dive instead of an establishment only wanting your money. Employees (or the owner? Not sure...) checked up on us as well, which was really nice. It felt like they really wanted you to enjoy yourself. Dogs get loved on. The other "guests" were really friendly. The wine was great and they will even chill it for you. They have trivia night on Wednesdays and "conversation" cards on the tables to play with. I don't say this often but this place is perfect. :) read more

This place is as smooth as a fine wine. Bring your pup, make a friend, relax, and enjoy the true gem of Louisville.

Vines and canines is my new favorite winery. It's located in a a convenient and fun part of town-bardstown road area! There's a shared parking lot and plenty of street parking. The bartenders are all so helpful and friendly and good at helping me choose new wines to try. The venue is also accompanied with games to play wit your friends. read more

This dog-friendly wine bar is also a great spot to paws -- er, pause -- in your day, even if you don't have Fido in tow! I had passed this place frequently when meeting friends at Great Flood Brewery. I knew that the concept was a place to bring well-behaved pooches and also stop in imbibe. While I don't have a dog of my own, I finally got to check the place out recently while in the neighborhood with a friend and their four-pawed best friend. The inside of the tore itself is beautiful, with hardwood floors and high ceilings, with a great variety of bottled wines and other libations for sale. In the back part of the store is the wine bar. The sommelier let us try a sip of one of the wines that day, and my friend and I both decided on the Semillon (Le Hameau). In addition to wine, there was also Sangria and several cocktails availale to purchase by the glass. While the sommelier indicated that there is patio seating outside in addition to the table on the sidewalk at Douglas Blvd, we opted to stay indoors and enjoy the cozy ambiance while we were there; truth be told, it was a little brisk outside when we went and indoors was simply a better choice. Her canine curled up in one of the doggie beds in the store while we sat, sipped, and savored the Saturday afternoon and visited over a refreshing glass of wine. This store is so welcoming, both to humans and canines alike. Even without a dog in tow, it would be a great place gather with two-legged friends to -- as the sign in front says -- sit, stay, and sip! read more

The main attraction here is that there isn't 80,000 choices for wine. I get lost in the bigger stores. The folks running this store cherry-pick only solid, tasty wines. This can be a real time-saver. Notably, the employee's know their stuff; not just some hourly worker there to collect a paycheck. The above was true at the old and new locations, but the NEW location has kicked it up a notch. They now have an intimate side-room that can be used for private gatherings and/or tastings. On many nights they now sell wine by the glass as well as a signature drink. The drink they had when I was there involved bourbon and mandarin oranges - it looked awesome - but it was a 'school night' so I stuck with a nice Americano Petit Syrah. Butter! I like 'keeping it local' and they also carry selected liquors. As always, it's pet friendly with a variety of dog paraphernalia (beds, bowls, etc.). I look forward to becoming more of a regular as they moved much closer my home (behind the iconic Twig & Leaf). Cheers! read more

This is a cute little wine shop. They have LoTS of unique wines. You can taste wines some nights and even pop a bottle open and enjoy it at a table. Dogs are welcome!!

You can't put enough stars to do this place justice. The wine is incredible, the music/ambience is perfect and Logan is the man. We lucked out by walking in here over a year ago and come back multiple times a week. This is bottom line my favorite place in Louisville. I almost don't want to write anything to keep this place a secret. read more

A place that has fantastic wine and is dog friendly, you can't beat that! LOVE this place!

It was Friday in the time of Corona quarantining and I was looking to support a local business and have a little adventure. I've been to Vines a few times with friends and always had a great experience with their laidback, slightly sexy yet also comfortable, atmosphere and unpretentious customer service so decided I'd stock up on a few provisions there. I called to place my curbside order and said I wanted one box of Shania white since the shop's lovely owner had recommended it on their Instagram (I love that they have added more "value" options to their selection since they know folks are hurt in the pocketbook right now) and two surprise bottles! Wine is pretty personal but I'm not super picky so I told the guy a few qualities I don't like and otherwise gave him free reign to choose for me. He was definitely surprised by my request but when I arrived 15 minutes later he had picked a couple of great reds for me to try and I already love one of them!! I was so happy he indulged me and added that bit of adventure to my third #StayHome weekend :) The curbside setup that day also felt safer as I didn't have to touch a door handle, they just had the table right there! read more

Vines & Canines - Curbside pickup setup at Vines during Coronavirus restrictions - Pet Stores Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I came here for the first time last weekend, on a Saturday evening. I love wine but I'm by no means a connoisseur. I'd read the review that the owners pick only the best wines. The wines by the glass are written on a chalkboard menu, so when you arrive you need to check that out and order at the front. It appears there are always 3-4 reds and 3-4 whites available plus bourbons. Prices ranged from 5-11 to most were about 6=8 dollars. I ordered the German Riesling and a friend ordered a recommended red (eek, can't remember) but both were amazing. We stayed longer than anticipated, just chatting with owners, other customers and playing with the dogs. A word of caution to dog owners.. If your dog isn't the best about staying indoors (mine..) keep an eye on the door. Some people weren't the best about firmly shutting it. The owner said he was looking to get a sign or stop or something... Just something to keep an eye for as both a customer and a dog owner, please keep the front door closed!! All in all, an amazing experience and I will be back! What a gem! read more

Awesome not to miss wine bar. The bourbon and wine selection is fantastic and unique. The old-fashioned cocktail was SO good.

The sommelier was rad too. A can't miss if you're in the area!! read more

This is one of my favorite places to just chill and have a drink. You can order food or bring it with you. They have a great wine selection and have added bourbons for those who want something other than wine. You can bring your furry friends with you and they have outdoor seating when it's warm. I can't say enough great things about Logan. He is always so welcoming and helpful in picking out a great wine that I have never tried before. We have been for some of their tastings like their charcuterie night with French wines. I have been here for a ladies night where we brought various desserts and had Logan pair us with some wine. I have been for some drinks and games (jenga and apples to apples). It's a great place to hang out. read more

For a glass of something special or a gift for a wine enthusiast, Vines & Canines is unique! First, you can bring your (well-behaved) pooch along, even inside! Food is not served, so they are welcome to lounge just about anywhere. The staff is extremely knowledgeable of anything from a everyday bottle to a celebratory splurge, so let them know what your taste and budget is and I recommend letting them pick! Tucked nearby the Twig & Leaf, you can find neighbors gathering, people with a glass, dog and laptop doing some work, and everyone in-between. It's small, yet cozy. The front part of the shop offers bottles to go, along with treats for both humans and dogs alike. All in all, a great local business! read more

This is my fiancé and my go to place! It's such a relaxing atmosphere and our main man Logan is fantastic! He is honestly the main reason we go!

Dropped in to buy a gift card for a friend who loves wine and her dog. Seems to be the perfect combination. They must have been having their ugly Christmas sweater party. The manager greeted many by name and there were snacks sitting around. The vibe was nice and cool and laid back. I could see dropping in for a glass of wine and relaxing in a comfy chair while visiting with friends. Too bad and I don't have a canine companion to lay at my side. They had a nice wine collection and you could buy by the bottle or glass. You could buy treats for your furry friend too. If you love your dog and wine (or bourbon) this is the place for you!! read more

Is your dog one of your best friends? Well, mine is and that's one of the main reasons why I love Vines and Canines. You can bring your pup and relax with a nice glass of wine or bourbon. I've been to Vines and Canines several times but most recently went on Saturday with my dog Sable. I sat out on their new back patio which was lovely. The wine selection is great here. I was told each wine they sell and serve is handpicked out by the owner. We've been to some of the tasting events as well. My dog Sable likes it because the owner doesn't mind if she is off leash when they aren't busy, she gets treats, and the owner even gave her a toy on one of her first visits. If you like dogs and wine, this is the place for you! read more

Two of my favorite things are dogs and wine and this place combines them! Oh happy day. Vines and Canines is located in the Douglas Loop neighborhood in the Highlands. A little bit tucked away behind North End Cafe but an adorable location. The decor is artistically dog themed and there are treats, water bowls and more for your four-legged friend. The wine selection is on point and so are the prices. There are many $10 and under bottles to choose from. You can bring your dog and join in for events like Thursday night team trivia. Take your dog for a walk and stop in for a bottle! read more

Wine, dogs, local business...what's not to love about Vines & Canines? The thing I love most about living near Douglass Loop is the sense of community and the small-town feel I get despite being in a city. Vines & Canines caters perfectly to that feeling for me. I've been in twice now...the first time, it was a slow evening so the owner encouraged us to let our dogs off leash to walk around and sniff while we enjoyed glasses of wine! On our most recent visit, we just popped in for some dog treats, but were again greeted by a friendly employee. I enjoy coming in here and really getting a chance to talk to the guys who love wine and look forward to many more visits. It would be kind of neat if they blocked off a side area completely for dogs; I think I'd be here all the time if that were the case! read more

They catered to any and every need we had and made us feel very welcome in our time there.

This could easily be our favorite hangout spot, perfect for any day of the week! read more

First time at this interesting wine and cocktail bar on Bardstown Road. Love wine but must admit I am a neophyte in regards to being able to explain the nuanced of each particular offering. Logan, the general manager I would reckon and sommelier was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging and personable. Vibes and Canines offers a relaxing atmosphere, good conversation if you are interested, and an outdoor patio that is shared with Great Flood Brewing if your other half is more of a beer guy. The best of both worlds. read more
