What a lovely wine bar! They have an excellent wine collection. And the staff are delightful. Both the owner and manager are deeply knowledgeable and more than happy to share and educate. Cork is definitely worth a visit if you’re in D.C.
Had attentive and personalized bar service even with a group of 6 with no reservation on a Friday night. Bartender made time for our table and offered personalized flight options. This is my second visit and I definitely recommend!
Really cool place with a warm, friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend the fresh chips—they were perfectly cooked. The wine selection was top-tier.
Cork Wine Bar is one of my favorite spots. Kareem, the sommelier, is truly exceptional — knowledgeable, personable, and always spot-on with his wine picks. The food is consistently delicious, whether you come for brunch or dinner. You honestly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly recommend!
Wine market, bar, small plates joint in a good location. Stopped in for a flight and light bite on a Saturday night. The downstairs bar/market was packed, lots of energy, and buzzing. We were upstairs because we had a reservation. Decidedly quieter up there only a couple of other folks dining, the back room had a large party (15) cozy with lighting in the right place. We started with a flight and narrowed in on Pomerol by the glass. The Somm was friendly, knowledgeable, and made a good suggestion for our final glass, a Cahors. A licorice-bomb that we really liked. On the food side, we were very basic, fries with homemade ketchup; French onion soup, with cheddar and a nice bread on the side; and roasted/fried cauliflower with yogurt, pine nuts, and pickled raisins, which was a little overdone. We didn't venture much further on the food menu, but we were really here for the wine anyway. On our way out, we perused the markets but weren't able to find that Cahors in a bottle server/somm. sensing our dilemma, procured a bottle for us from the back. Nice experience, I'd explore more by the glass options here and they have some interesting finds in the wine market.

Sip, savor, and shop exceptional wines in a warm, inviting atmosphere.
