I actually stumbled upon VinoTeca because we had an hour wait at Barcelona across the street and needed to kill some time. We decided to go wine tasting, which was extremely affordable. The deal was 3 wines for $15 or 1 wine for $6. My girls and I decided that the 3 for $15 was the best option and by the time we were finished, our table at Barcelona was ready. Your first bottle of wine from here also comes with a "no cork fee" if you'd like to bring it over to Barcelona! read more

Super Bowl weekend and the folks at VinoTeca still made time to fully explain the wines we were choosing, why they loved them, and why we would! Nice little outside seating area for fantastic people watching. Dog friendly. Section galore. What's not to love? We will be back! read more

We used to be loyal customers and live across the street from VinoTeca. We visited 1-2x a week. Unfortunately, we have become fed up with the rude service by the majority of the staff. The owner and one of the workers behind the desk seem to get enjoyment in trying to ruin people's days. Whether it's their condescending voices or one-word dismissive responses - this was something we initially put up with. However, the last straw was when my spouse and I walked in and were looking at their area of nice wines for a special occasion. The woman opened the door and glared at us when we were looking around. We told her we were just looking around, but she continued to stand with her arms folded and glared for probably the most awkward few minutes of our lives. Sheepishly and embarrassed we really couldn't do anything but walk out. That's the last straw for us. Please don't get this place confused with "Barcelona Wine Bar" which is the restaurant across the street (and is amazing). I'd recommend you to look around the area for other boutique wine stores because surprisingly there are a few other incredible places that are close in proximity and have an even better selection. read more

Vinoteca is one of the best places to grab great wines in the city of Atlanta! They have great, high quality tastings in the evenings, and they even have a somm on staff! She was great, knowledgeable, and happy to help answer whatever questions we had about the wines we were tasting and our preferences. They have limited seating, but the environment is very warm and inviting, and there's always a good crowd of people within. Vinoteca also offers a wonderful selection of more affordable wines, ranging from $10 - $12+, and their wines are almost always locally distributed. read more

I went to Barcelona a few weeks ago and the experience was unforgettable. Yes a very intimate, classic, grown, vibe. The tapas were fantastic -- calamari, muscles, meatball, and the bread and olive oil was so delicious. Also has a nice glass of sauvignon blanc and a great time with friends. It's a great setting for when friends are in town and maybe they fly in late and you want to just catch up over wine and good food. Loved my experience! read more

My husband and I came here on our anniversary for a few small plates and wine before heading to a full dinner elsewhere. After our experience, we wished we had just stayed here! As soon as we walked up the staff asked if we were celebrating a special occasion, led us to a nice table, and gave us complimentary drinks to help us start celebrating! Our server was so sweet and helped us pick out some great plates and wine. The way the staff interacted with one another was so pleasant, and they all seemed genuinely happy to be there and to interact with both each other and the guests. It truly added a sense of warmth and comfort to the already great atmosphere in the restaurant! All of the plates and wine we tried were delicious. I definitely hope to visit again soon and would absolutely recommend to others! read more

I debated between 3 and 4 stars here. I'd give 2 stars for the service if I could. The food was amazing but the service was abysmal. The friends I went with have been before and were shocked at how poor the service was and that is the only reason I'll go back. We were there to celebrate and our server could have racked up a large bar tab had they been on top of things. Instead, our drinks, including water, remained empty for a good part of our meal. It was as if the floor manager wasn't paying attention to what was going on, or people called out sick but getting anyone to stop by the table for drinks or more bread, or to bus the table was a miracle. Orders were lost multiple times and the blame was placed on the kitchen. It became apparent the food runners were grabbing food and hoping they got it right. The kicker was someone bringing our bill without being asked or anyone asking for them. They had no idea we didn't want to order more drinks or more food. They were just interested in turning over the table after ignoring us most of the night. 5 stars for food 2 stars for service read more

What a great place to go whether you are meeting with friends or that cute person from the dating app. The weekend wine tastings are great and the pricing is pretty reasonable. Staff is attentive and obviously really passionate about the wines. I love that the tasting change often and go through different regions. I don't think you have much of a choice though which is the only downside. Overall, it's a great conversation starter and paces the hangout nicely! read more

This is a great place to stop in on a Saturday afternoon. Enjoy a wine flight and hang out with friends. It's a great hideaway from those errands you should be running! They have an amazing selection of wines within all price ranges. Beautiful decor, the noise level is moderate, and if you want to grab a bite to eat you can head across the street to their restaurant and enjoy great fare. read more

VinoTeca - Wine Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Ok so this place is ok and the wine is but the the staff is pretentious and rude. I asked a question and some woman says the "words are right there". I replied, "the words hidden by the sticky pad?" She apologizes. I asked a question about the sake and another woman goes on to tell this 5 year fluid Japanese speaker what sake is. It's rice wine she says. I didn't ask what sake was. Here's my advice, be nicer to potential customers. この場所は問題なし ワインは問題ない でもスタッフは気まぐれで失礼だ ある女性が「そこに」と言っています 「言葉が正しい」と言うのです 「棒で隠された言葉」と答えました 謝罪します 日本酒について質問し、別の女性が5年の流動的な日本語で日本語で日本語が日本語で語り続ける。 彼女が言うには、お米のワインだ。 酒は何か聞かなかった 顧客に優しくしてほしい read more

Great wine selections. Cool vibe. Very knowledgable staff. Thanks for the wine pick Katie! read more

Marry me, VinoTeca. I am lucky enough to live within walking distance of this place and frequently stop in to grab a bottle to go or enjoy one of their wine flights. The employees are always welcoming and more than happy to navigate you to your next favorite bottle(s) of wine. When it comes to tastings, they have one open table and a separate room which can be rented out for private events. The wine tastings vary in price and are pre-selected by the staff (who are experts by the way so trust, it will be good). The pours are also pretty generous. ;) I am a huge fan of the decor and overall vibes VinoTeca is boasting. If you're a fan of Barcelona, chances are you're going to love this place. If you're lucky, you can also get some puppy kisses from the wine store pup, Sebastian. Happy tasting! read more

I highly recommend this restaurant. The food was amazing. The waiter was extremely knowledgeable and attentive. The wine was excellent.

I came here and did a wine tasting pre-COVID. Like literally a few days before everything shut down. I had previously heard some great things about the place and had it on my list to try. Fast forward, I was able to take a friend for a birthday celebration. We attended the wine tasting that paired with Girl Scout cookies. It was pretty slow in the shop with the exception of customers coming in and out to make a purchase. We tried three wines and all were pretty good. There is a great variety of wines that the shop offers and I was able to find a few that I liked and purchased. Since the wine tasting, I've been by the shop about two times. And unfortunately, the wine that I fell in love with is always sold out. I can't complain too much because I don't go in on a regular. I have another neighborhood wine shop by me so I usually default to that one. However, if I'm ever on that side of town, I always try to stop in. read more

Absolutely the best wine store in the city. The selection is terrific and the staff is extremely knowledgeable. Tell them what you like and they will find you an incredible bottle of wine. We have never been disappointed in getting wine from here. read more

What a cool place. Service is a little slow but overall great food and service. Will definitely come back read more

VinoTeca - Wine Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Incredibly polite staff! The manager overheard us talking about sitting near the bar area and made accommodations while the original host made other arrangements. Once we were seated, we were greeted by Evan and Cassidy who worked cohesively to create a continuous flow of quality food and outstanding customer service. They allowed me to try a new wine although I eventually went with the Riesling. You wouldn't have even known they were working more than our table room. This experience was completely intimate and flawless..! read more

This place is wonderfully personable. The owner makes you feel like you are home, but giving you wine at the same time. Best of both worlds!

I am Barcelona VinoTeca's biggest fan. I bring everyone here from my parents to my friends before a night out. Every set of three pours for a tasting is amazing for the great price of around $16. The staff is so friendly and provides background on each wine. I love the casual environment for drinking wine with friends. Could not recommend a wine experience in ATL more than VinoTeca!! read more

I've always wanted to go to Barcelona but every time I have been in Inman Park it's been too busy with a long wait so I always ended up going somewhere else. This time though, I made a reservation for my birthday. We sat outside on the patio. Our server was great and personable. I can't remember his name. He recommended some wines and I got a flight and then stuck with many more glasses of one of the Sauvignon blancs. We ordered three plates of the hanger steak, the lamb, the salmon, the manchego cheese, the octopus, and the meatballs. Everything was amazing, except I didn't really care for the octopus because of the texture. Highly recommend this place for a date night! It's a must-go place if you're in Atlanta. read more

This wine establishment is great! The way the work is that you go in and for $15 you get three small glasses for tasting of the wines they have that week. They change the wines weekly and they give you a nice and brief explanation of each one and the winery. The place is by Barcelona (which is right in front), and they also sell full bottles of wine. They are extremely exquisite and well organized. The ambiance is very delightful! you can have parties or just come with friends. They also have a special room with special wines. read more

Great bar and delicious Wine! Service at the bar undesirable, rushed and lack luster but the food and atmosphere makes the wait worth it! Scene is lively and trendy! read more

I almost didn't want to leave a review because I selfishly didn't want this place to become too popular. However, this wine bar deserves some love because it truly is a gem. I have been several times, and every time I go, I'm greeted by a really friendly staff. They know a lot about their wines, and they've taught me quite a few things! Generally, I do the $15 for the 3 wine tastings (they say it's a half-glass, but if so, it's a pretty generous half-glass), and they often have food pairings too! The location is adorable! It's located in one of my favorite neighborhoods--Inman park--so it's a great place to relax, learn a little about wine, and hang out with friends. read more

I came here for a private party and I loved the back room area where they had us sit. The ambiance was so nice and the people gave history on the wine before we tried it. It was nice to taste ones I'd never try before. They made sure everybody got their fair share of wine. Lovely place. read more

I finally checked out VinoTeca this past weekend and cannot stop telling people how amazing it is and that they need to check it out. VinoTeca is great for both the wine connoisseurs and wine novices. They have a huge selection of wine that ranges in price, all the way from the very high end (I cannot conceptualize how much the most expensive bottle they have is) to the $10 Rose Vino Verde I picked up. If you have ever tried an obscure type of wine abroad and want to find it, chances are high that not only will they know about it, but they will have a version of it in stock. My friend was on the search for "Orange Wine" (I still have no idea what the heck it even is), and the employees immediately knew what she was talking about and took her to their chilled room to help her pick out a bottle. The main reason I went was for their wine tastings. Every weekend they have a curated tasting menu with three selected wines. You can choose to do a full tasting of the three wines (1/2 glass pours of each) for $11-$15 depending on the specific wines for that week. If you just want to try one of the wines, they have an option of doing just a $6 tasting of one. What I really enjoyed is that there isn't a specific time you must be in the door to try the tastings. Typically, you can just go in during their open hours (1-7pm on the weekends) at any time and ask to do the tastings. They have a few tables set up in the store so you can just sit down and chat with your friends (or make new ones) as you sip on some wine. As you finish up your first pour, the employees will come around and check how you are doing and pour your next glass. If they are not too busy, the employees will then explain each of the curated wines and why they were picked for that tasting. This past weekend I went to the "Quit your day job" tasting, and the employees gave us great fun facts of each of the wine makers regarding their previous jobs and what got them into wine. If you end up enjoying the wines you taste (which I am sure you will), you will get a 10% discount on any of the wines you taste. If you are looking for something fun and casual to do, definitely consider going to a wine tasting at VinoTeca. Or, if you are just wanting to up your game in the wine department, you can definitely stop by and talk to the employees for some guidance. The one thing to be aware of if it is your first time in the Inman park area is the parking situation...it isn't fun. There is street parking along Highland Avenue, but it typically is full and is all parallel parking. There are a few parking garages off of Highland that you can pay money to park in if you just do not want to deal with the headache. I personally try to find street parking in one of the side streets, such as Lake. It is also easily accessible off the Beltline so walking/biking is a great option. read more

Fun! Great people, great people, great wine!Very low key with jazz in the background..chill afternoon.

A great place to unwind after work with great wines from around the world. The food is tapas and pairs with the wine perfectly.

A hidden gem. Super chill. Love their wine selection. Connoisseurs. Went there after getting married at city hall and they were so lovey to treat us. The wine was stellar and they give you an informed explanation for each wine, the region it comes from, the vineyard's history and more. It's obvious that they know what they're doing and enjoy doing it. Another thing I really enjoyed about Barcelona Vinoteca is the non-pretentious super chill vibe. read more

I had such a positive experience ordering a celebratory bottle of wine (from Boston) with Katie and the Barcelona VinoTeca team. I came across their website and was impressed with their boasting fact of having over 1,600 wines!! I called and spoke to Katie who was super helpful in terms of asking for wine type/region and price range. She mentioned she had plenty of high end tasting wine for more affordable prices and followed up with a detailed email including some options. We were able to deliver the celebratory wine with a 1 day turnaround. It's always a challenge to have "the eagle land" from afar, so I'm very grateful for Katie and her team's strong customer service and passion for wine. Thank you! read more

We walked in for a tasting and got three excellent wines. First a fantastic Pinot Gris, and then two great reds (a blend and a Cab Sauv). We got detailed descriptions of where the wines are from and what makes them special. We then got great recommendations for a couple bottles to take home. All this to say, extremely friendly and funny, knowledgeable staff and a great selection of exotic wines make this spot WELL worth a stop. read more

Absolutely delightful staff and THE best food!!! I definitely recommend this as a place for parties. We hosted my best friend's 25th birthday here and threw the staff so many curve balls. They rolled with every punch like troopers. Cannot truly express my gratitude for the evening at Barcelona Wine Bar. read more

This is the best Wine bar in the state. Katie and Janine and the rest of the staff are wine experts and can pick you a wine just from your description. They make you feel like you are in their home living room. It's cozy, familiar, and fun. The Inman Park community is so glad that Vineoteca is here. read more

Used their curbside pick-up during stay-at-home for COVID-19 and it worked really well! They are super helpful in helping you pick out wines to order over the phone and then bring to your car when you arrive. Great way to support local business and get wine while being hunkered down at home. read more

This was my first time dining at Barcelona. The atmosphere was lively and music was great (wish it was a little louder so I could dance more in my seat)! I ordered the grapefruit cocktail and potato tortilla, both yummy. Service was a little slow, but it was busy and also a Friday night. I would go back to try more of the extensive tapas menu and original cocktails. read more

This was an amazing find! The moment we walked in we knew we are in for a treat. The decor was amazing, everyone was so friendly. Thankfully as a party of two, we didn't have to wait at all. Our server recommended a selection of wine samples, which was some of the best wine I've ever had!! I definitely will come back when I visit Atlanta again! read more

Love the wine here! Unfortunately the lady who is a the front counter( Idk if she is the manager or just works at the front) is racist and unprofessional. I've been to this place twice. The first time I let it go however the SECOND time I asked an employee about it and they apologized and stated that she was indeed racist and said how customers have complained about her before. Smh. read more

I love the bread and the charcuterie. The servers are wonderful. My favorite Friday get away.
