Giulia Nesci
Amazing! We got there late afternoon and managed to slowly eat and drink our way through the menu for 3 hours. To be honest I could’ve sat here all night! The main bartender/host (sorry we missed her name) was amazing, recommended a great wine and was lovely to chat to. Food was incredible, perfect little bites followed by a delicious prawn ravioli. Highly recommend and can’t wait to be back. Thanks for a perfect Saturday afternoon

It was an impromptu date night with my husband and this place didn’t disappoint. From the warm, inviting ambiance to the exceptional service, everything hit the mark. The wine list was thoughtfully curated, and the staff’s recommendation was so good we ended up taking a bottle home. We sampled the focaccia, tuna crudo, and prawn ravioli—each dish was beautifully executed and full of flavor. A perfect spot for a cozy evening out.

I personally LOVE coming to Wine Library. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, they provide fantastic recommendations and I’ve never met a wine I didn’t like at your bar. Props to the chefs too because the food is phenomenal. I could eat those Gruyère croquettes all day every day. Thank you for creating a space that feels like home, that welcomes people with open arms and feels like a cosy hideaway for locals.

My wife and I had dinner at The Wine Library recently, not having been for quite some time and regretted not having been, because it has always been a fabulous establishment if you wanted simple but beautifully prepared food accompanied by excellent wine. We shared croquettes, chicken liver pate, meatballs and a leaf salad, all delicious and accompanied by wine recommended by staff, who were charming and attentive. The atmosphere was fabulous and you couldn’t help but enjoy yourself. We will definitely be back.

Really enjoyed this little bar in Paddington. Friendly welcoming staff, nice dishes and good wine. Although not cheap, we did not feel overcharged. Good dishes were the Wagyu beef tartare, the crudo, fried zucchini sticks, meat balls in sauce, and the Barramundi. Wines were also of good quality.
