What People Are Saying About Market Avenue Wine Bar

The Scene – Unlike the Edgar Allen Poe story about the man who tragically gets locked in a wine cellar, being held prisoner in this brick-encased bar wouldn't be the world's worst sentence. The smallness of the bar increases its intimacy, and the staff is trustworthy and educated--something to be commended in a place that offers more than 70 wines by the glass, 700 by the bottle. – – The Draw – A diverse collection of whites, reds, ports, Madeira and sherries are offered, along with light Hors d'oeuvres. A highlight is the baked almond brie, a soft, creamy cheese…
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- Watch your server's reaction when ordering. Some staff members have worked here for years, and a simple eye raise or pause with the pen will tell you whether or not you've ordered the "right" wine. Ask your server for suggestions, especially about wines that have just come in stock.
Great New Location, Same Charming Atmosphere
by hlizparks at Citysearch
After a few weeks of down-time, Ohio City's finest wine bar has re-opened across the street - next door to The Flying Fig. The space is bigger; but the atmosphere couldn't be cozier! The glass pours and wines by the bottle stand-out for both their boutique selection and outstanding taste. The food compliments the wine perfectly and the various small plates are ample enough to create an entire meal. There's no place nicer to take a date or meet a friend....we had a great time, my girlfriends and I, and we will definitely make this a regular stop.
Best Wine Bar in Cleveland
by Dinner0825 at Citysearch
What can you say, it's the best. Awersome wine list, huge selection. Friendly service, ambiance is great whether you are meeting a friend for a drink or on a special date. Layed back, trendy but not main stream. By far one of my favorite spots in Cleveland.
- Pros: Huge and extensive wine list
- Cons: I wish there was full dinner service
The place you've been looking for

Simply the best wine bar in the Cleveland area. Selection, service, and most importantly, the ambience, - all outstanding. Location in Ohio City brings an eclectic crowd to this quaint wine bar. Terrific place to enjoy great wine and appetizers with your significant other or a group of small friends. Cozy during the winter, and patio seating outside during warm summer nights. I always have a great time here!
- Pros: Ambience
- Cons: Parking can be a challenge
Step back into time
by caymus at Citysearch
Step back in time and forward to the best wine bar in Cleveland. You may even forget that you're in Cleveland while enjoying the cozy Victorian atmosphere inside or the all to much European cafe outside. Be sure to leave your European accent behind.
- Pros: atmosphere, wine selection, food
- Cons: cafe too busy, weeken
