Unbelievably delicious food and wine! The paninis, salads, apps, flatbreads, cheesecakes....chef's kiss. Staff was very friendly and attentive too. Treat yourself!!!!
Really great place in Grand Rapids! Their food was awesome, especially the Splithand panini and MacGyver flatbread that we tried. I love that their wines are Minnesota-focused, and the two that I tried were very delicious, both from Cannon River Winery. Our server was phenomenal, very friendly and attentive --- plus she gave us great food recommendations. I also really liked that there was art for sale on the walls. I will definitely be back here any time I'm visiting the area, and I highly recommend checking them out!
Beautiful Minnesota plated served foods and drinks Live music really set for a fun experience. The food was so delicious and fresh. All are wines and beers we had were from Minnesota which we just loved! This is our favorite spot in Grand Rapids for food and drinks
Love this place for the wine and charcuterie board. We come here to hang out and have a good time! We love to sit outside in the summer. It’s super cute on the inside! The staff are friendly! The food is good but limited.
I went in here over the weekend and it was fabulous. I loved the chill vibe. Our waitress was personable and knowledgeable. I highly recommend the pretzels and beer cheese, mighty tasty. Also, do yourself a favor and try some cheesecake.
Enjoyed the outdoor seating (pet friendly) with live guitar music. Loved the plants as area dividers. Food was delicious and fairly priced. Rhubarb wine was also very good but seemed a light pour for the price. Overall good.
One of the best restaurants in Grand Rapids! This is my go to spot when people from out of town are visiting! This place has outdoor seating so you can enjoy your meal (and drinks) with your pups! It truly is a diamond in the rough. 10/10
Took my grandma out for lunch and we decided to try Unwined. I had always thought this was more of a 'drink wine and have some tiny food' place, but was so pleasantly surprised! First off, there's more than just wines. Their hot toddy's are amazing and there's plenty of other cocktails available. Second, these menu items are FULL MEALS. The appetizer, the sandwiches, the soup... it's way better than I imagined! Third, it's so cozy and laid back. My anxiety was nowhere to be found. 10/10 recommend this place to anyone and everyone!
