If you’re looking for a place to socialize and try delicious wines, there’s no better place than a wine bar. Whether you’re looking for an intimate date night or a more laid-back atmosphere, Austin has a variety of wine bars to suit any occasion. Here are a few wine bars we recommend near our South Lamar apartments: 

June’s All Day

June’s All Day is a neighborhood cafe that’s beloved for both its delicious food and unique wine list. Wine fans will surely love their wine menu, which features a colorful zine with artwork and collages. They also select their wines with a similar fun approach. The options here range from funky natural wines to elegant, premier vintages. June’s All Day offers half-priced sparkling wines every Monday, as well as happy hour Monday through Friday, from 3 pm to 5 pm. Be sure to make a reservation before you go—this popular spot can have lines out the door! 

Wanderlust Wine Collective

This innovative wine bar was founded with the goal of making wine more fun and approachable. With that vision in mind, the team behind Wanderlust Wine Collective decided to build the world’s largest wine-on-tap draught selection. This impressive system offers visitors a selection of up to 80 different wines from across the globe. You can read about the different styles and flavors of each wine on their touchscreen menus, which allow you to customize your experience. The tap system also offers a range of pours, from a 1 oz tasting portion to an 8 oz pour. 

House Wine

Originally a small house built in 1940, House Wine features a cozy setting and eclectic selection of natural wines. This unpretentious wine bar has a relaxed vibe that’s perfect for laid-back get-togethers. House Wine has happy hour every day from 3 pm to 6 pm, as well as all day on Wednesday. This iconic Austin wine bar also has live music four nights a week, wine classes, and a popular wine club. 

After a day of enjoying delicious wines at one of these wine bars in Austin, grab a lobster roll at a nearby seafood joint.
