4.0 of 5 stars. First of all, yes, we live in Kensington and I never go very far away so that's why I'm very Kensington heavy on my reviews ... we've been to nearly every place in this village 4-5 times because we…

4.0 of 5 stars. I've only done the retail bit here, but I was impressed by their selection, and their prices were fair. They had a couple of specials that were priced very low. The owner was working solo the…

5.0 of 5 stars. I have only been in once, but I will be back. I am a wine drinker, and this is a spot I have enjoyed immensely in my one, late-middle weeknight visit. The key was the crowd. The crowd was light at 6…

Relaxing Wine Bar

This is a great local wine bar. The simple warm atmosphere is everything you'd want in a wine bar. The location in Kensington is perfect.

Great Neighborhood Wine Bar

The atmosphere is warm and quaint. The wine selection is amazing, the pizzas are great, and the desserts! What else can you ask for. Oh! The owner and staff are very friendly and professional.

2.0 of 5 stars. In Berlin, they would have called this place "Shicky-Micky". Upscale, expensive ... more likely to cater to your investment manager than to your kid's professor. Well, I *am* your kid's professor ...…
