In Vino Veritas - Dallas' Best Wine Bars
“Good wine is a good familiar creature if it be well used.” William Shakespeare, Othello
Good old Billy had it right. And there are some wine bars in Dallas that are serving up a lot of the good stuff at great prices in wonderful locations. Looking for a classy night out? Check out some of Dallas’s best wine bars.
Cork
Cork takes wine drinking and turns it on its head. If you’re undecided or simply adventurous, head over to Cork’s West Village location for an unforgettable experience. Charge up your Cork card and swipe it at any of their 8 rotating stations. Better yet, during happy hour, Sunday through Thursday, get 50% off glasses at certain stations.
Times Ten Cellars
We’ve talked about Times Ten Cellars before as one of our favorite Texas wineries. They’re also one of the top wine bars in Dallas – great service, comfortable yet classy atmosphere and live jazz put it at the top of the pack. Grab a bottle and settle in for a very happy hour – you can even order dinner from nearby restaurants like Scallinis, Café Izmir or Nandina!
Vino100
Vino 100 is ideal for a date night in Uptown or a drink with coworkers on their gorgeous patio. They throw some great events, too – pay at the door and get generous pours and lots of food for hours! Prepping for a happy hour at home? Vino 100’s staff can make a recommendation, plus get 20% off for take home bottles!
Crush
Location, location, location. Crush, the new-ish kid on Knox is right in the thick of it all, and makes you feel right at home with comfy seats and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Subscribe to their newsletter and find out about their weekly wine specials and vintner visits!

So I haven’t been there in awhile, but I cringe everytime I think about going back. The furniture was bare, the wine selection dismal, by the glass choices expensive. But I guess I’ll give it another shot – let me know in the comments if you think it’s worth the trip!
