Denise the Wine Shop

If you’d describe yourself as having champagne taste on a beer-bottle budget, then this tiny drinking hole is the place for you. In keeping with this city’s growing trend for bottle shops, here you’ll find sheltered outdoor timber seating for up to 24, delightful if somewhat slow service, glasses of red and white for $8 and bottles for well under $30. But the hands-down, uncontested, very best deal to be had here is a 200ml bottle of sparkling wine for $8.80 – or $5.28 on special. And the icing on the cake? Denise will let you order fries or a burger from Bergs, so you can line that tummy and continue to quaff the night away.
