Bottles Wine Bar & Merchants in Worcester

Nice bar, relaxing in the afternoon early evening and gets more lively after 8pm. I personally really like this bar as it has a good mix of people and ages. I've never had food so I can't comment. There is a few tables outside which is nice when the weather is good. They have a good selection of red and white wine and lagers. However they don't do any IPA or ales. Which is a little disappointing. If they had a small selection of bottled ales or IPAs, I'd probably go here more often.

Great atmosphere wonderful staff will be back

Staff was really helpful, got serve by Kieran. Made the experience amazing.

We only intended to have one drink here on our Saturday night out but ended up enjoying several pints each , as well as really tasty sandwiches . Lovely friendly atmosphere . Friendly and efficient bar staff . Nice and warm inside on this occasion . Spent the rest of our evening here. Drinks and food not cheap , but drinks kept well and food better value than it looked on the menu as it included a drink as well. The sandwiches were absolutely fantastic tasting, well presented . Also came with a bowl of hand made crisps and bowl of dressed salad. Really glad we decided to try the food and would certainly order again when next visiting Bottles. Looking forwards to our next visit!

Wine tasting with Joe, really enjoyed our 2hour session, got to try about 12 different wines, Joe was really knowledgeable and passionate about wine, we learnt lots. The cheeseboard platter was a lovely touch. We bought some wine and will definitely be using a decanter from now on after Joe’s advice. Highly recommended, excellent value for money 5*

Andrew's a ledge, great place, nuff sed :)

We arrived at the shop 5 minutes early and proceeded upstairs to the venue. It was laid out to suit your booking ie 2 people - table for 2. 4 people- table for 4, etc. After a quick introduction we had our first wine. A TV was set up at the front as we had a presentation throughout the night with photos and various information on each wine we tried. There were eight different wines which were paired with various sweets. We met Alex from the sweet shop who supplied them, she was great and we will definitely be visiting there too! Fabulous night, met some lovely people, had some great wine and sweets 🍷🥂100% recommend.

Great wine tasting, very generous portions (important) lovely wine and decent cheese pairings. Would recommend.

I was there Thursday night, I didn't rate the food as I didn't eat ,great atmosphere ,friendly staff ,I will be returning,

We visited for my birthday. Didn't start great when we were told we couldn't have a complimentary glass of wine on arrival as he'd run out of glasses! Hard to believe as its a ticked event and other people had one. Joe was very obnoxious and loud. He kept interrupting Luca and treated us like we were in class. Luca was very informative especially on a one to one basis. I think he was overwhelmed by Joe to be honest. We enjoyed the wine tasting but portions were small, Joe seemed to drink more than anyone! We were hoping for a glass of wine at the end as we've had at other tastings but sadly not to be. Small amounts left over in the bottles were on a first come first service so again not everyone got some. Overall not worth the money my daughter spent. Very disappointing 😞

Many thanks to Joe and the team for hosting our business meeting & wine tasting session. The hospitality & venue was great for the business meeting and the wine tasting session that followed was very informative, light hearted & fun. Certainly worth a return visit and would recommend to others, Many thanks Joe

Great little wine bar in Worcester. Nice staff and great wine list selection

Thought we would pop in for a drink before a meal elsewhere. There were 4 people behind the bar but all seemed to be concentrating on the order that was in front of me which was cocktails, after 10 minutes of waiting and no sign of being nearly served, we left. No one behind the bar made eye contact with me or said they would be with me soon, I was just ignored, 4 people on one round of drinks seems excessive, I just wanted to order 2 beers which wouldn’t of taken 2 minutes, will go elsewhere in future, poor basic customer service.

The Tequila and Taco night was fantastic. A lot of thought had obviously gone into selecting the food and drink, both were superb! Definitely would recommend 👌

The Wine and Cheese tasting is a great experience at bottles. Joe is very knowledgeable in the wines he sells, I highly recommend you pay a visit and enjoy the wine tasting yourself.

There is nothing not to love about the wine tasting events at Bottles. Interesting and fun, not pretentious, just a very relaxed evening with people that love wine! Perfect way to spend the evening. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant place great atmosphere and very good knowledge

Don't know what's happened here but this place used to be the place to go on new street, not anymore. The manger obviously did not want to be there he was just rude and unfriendly like most of the staff. Won't be returning until something dramatically changes, much better bars close by I'd recommend.

Always a great atmosphere to consume delicious wine. 😋

We did a wine tasting with Joe in the bottles shop and it was amazing! He's really knowledgeable and we learnt so much. The cheese board that was included was a nice extra touch that went really well with the tasting. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who likes wine.

Just had the best afternoon with Joe doing the wine tasting, he’s so knowledgeable!! Would highly recommend, the cheeseboard was a nice touch too! Thank you again Joe

Gorgeous venue. The wine menu is amazing! Really helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Nice venue. Great selection of wines

Very good service and excellent quality and the staff was very friendly . You should go there it is worth a visit

AMAZING cheese and meat platters and a great selection of wine to choose from. I noted there's lots of live music events on which i'll definitely check out in the future. Really impressed with this place.

Had lovely time on Sunday. The staff were very helpful and they had a great selection of drinks.

For my first time was superb. Great place good atmosphere and good wine 🍷 i couldn't ask for more thanks .tottaly recommend.

Great girls evening spent at Bottles! The atmosphere is lovely and chilled, the staff really lovely and the wine very reasonably priced. Will definitely be heading back!

Spent a perfect couple of hours sharing some bottles of wine and enjoying a cheese board. Great wine, great food and lovely atmosphere for a relaxing Sunday evening with friends.

Venue is lovely and I’ve had some really enjoyable evenings in recent months. Staff are super friendly. Highly recommend 👍🏻

Amazing experience through Groupon. Hosted in the wine shop not the bar. Joe was very knowledgeable and took 2 hours to talk us through 8 wines. Would definitely recommend.

Advertised as a Tapas wine bar. However they buy in from across the way. No Tapas. Mexican style food. Arrives cold. Not what was expected. Very disappointed.

A great spot to celebrate my birthday with friends. I was able to reserve a couple of large tables and bar stools which is where we stayed all evening. Drinks were reasonably priced and the background music was fab. Thoroughly recommend this Worcester Wine Bar for future visits.

Like this place but dragged someone out because the person serving didn’t like him. Dragged out very forcefully. Weird considering people were doing coke off tables 5 yards away

Me and my wife have had a few good nights in here when staying in Worcester. Mainly Sunday nights. Had a night in there last Saturday and was great. Great bar staff. Nice old school tunes played by a dj. Only thing that spoilt it was a miserable angry phil mitchell wanna be little doorman , kept coming round trying to take drinks that where not finished. When told he didn’t even apologise just gave me a stare and walked off !! Not sure what a doorman’s doing collecting glasses anyway. And taking them while drink was still in them is just trying to cause trouble in my option. Not prevent it. Definately git the jack russell syndrome this one !! Stick to trying to look hard on the doors and leave the rest to staff who know what they are doing and have manners. Shame really as it’s always a gd night.

amazing place, one of my favourite bars in worcester and best doormen too

My go to place when going for a drink in Worcester. Extensive selection of drinks, especially wine, friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Enjoyed a wine tasting experience at the Bottles shop this afternoon. Knowledgeable but informative guide and a lovely sharing platter to go with the 8 wines we tasted. An opportunity to purchase but no hard sell. A fun afternoon as well as appreciating the wine we were tasting. Thank you Joe

Perfect way to spend your lunchtime or a relaxing afternoon at Bottles, with a delicious meat/cheese platter, and a glass of wine. We very much enjoyed our visit today….we will be back.

I did the wine tasting experience at the Bottles wine shop. We had a fabulous time - it was well organised, involved interesting wines, a knowledgeable guide and delicious nibbles. It would make an excellent gift for anybody who enjoys drinking wine. No prior experience needed!

Love Bottles always have a good time, lots of laughter, plenty of food & alcohol, friendly service and lots of Christmas atmosphere

We visited (or tried to) on a Saturday night at about 10:45pm. As I approached the door to enter the front door, someone dropped a glass and it shattered on my foot which resulted in cutting it. (Why allow glass outside?) The bouncer then refused me entry saying I was at fault for stepping on the glass (I had to step over it as it was all over the pavement) and was so incredibly rude. Even refusing me access to basic first aid. He refused to give me his badge number, refused to get his manager and actually physically laid his hands on me to push me into the road after I had asked to explain nicely. He swore at me, threatened me with the police and even told his colleague to ignore me. Please Bottles, think about your door staff. Zero safeguards in action to protect customers and a dangerous attitude to women.

I love this place, and especially love hanging out in the garden in all weathers when I'm there! Staff have always been friendly and helpful. Post work drink there on a Friday has become a bit of a ritual!

Really nice place, good music, good atmosphere

Good vibes. Excellent wine choices

We had a fantastic wine tasting experience at Bottles for a Hen Do. The tasting was tailored to an Italian theme we'd requested and each wine selected was delicious. Joe was great, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic which made the whole tasting even better. We all agreed it was the highlight of our weekend, thank you so much!

Great local in the heart of Worcester, puts the pubs to shame Well done Bottles

Bottles Wine Bar & Merchants is a lovely place to enjoy with friends or by your own, it has its wine bar and the new proper wine shop in Worcester!!! Amazing wines, amazing prices, is an experience pop into the shop and then going to the wine bar where’s a lovely place where they play jazz alive every Thursday, drinks in accesible price, nice ladies too…. 😍👍🏽#VisitWorcester

Popped in for a nice bottle of wine - welcomed with a smile but unfortunately the experience was ruined by the staff allowing a select few allowing their dogs to bark and whine constantly. I am a dog owner and lover but having to listen to untrained and unsocialised dogs ruined our afternoon after spending over £20 on wine !!! We would have stayed longer but couldn’t wait to leave !!

Honestly, I was so excited to have a rare date night with my fiancé and even more excited to come to my favourite bar. Then, imagine my disappointment when we walked through the doors to find dreary looking furniture that looks like it's just spent...

Had reserved a table for a staff get together. Picked the right night as it was Jazz night. Great choice of drinks and you could choose food that was prepared and delivered from Chester’s restaurant. We decided to share some meat platters. Loads of food...

Had a great wine tasting here on Friday night. The manager, Jo, ran it and he really knows his stuff! He is also interesting and engaging to listen to - I have been to about 10 wine tastings in multiple different countries over the years...

Got seated by security got my order taken waiting for Pan pizza sat hear for 25 minutes got my order taken by another member of staff still no drink and member of staff stood talking next to my table for 5 minutes about how member...

I enjoyed my experience at Bottles and would recommend to anyone! It has a nice and friendly atmosphere with attentive table service. I look forward to my next visit.

Need to book online which is easy enough. Table service only which was problem free and no long waits for a Friday night.

Cannot recommend these guys enough. They went above and beyond, this is our favourite wine, we can always find it at spas etc but when I’ve researched it, its never in stock. I messaged bottles & wondered if they could source it as I know...

Have visited a couple of times now, with friends and partner. A comfortable relaxing place with a good selection of reasonably priced wines. Staff are friendly. The food is nice but rather underwhelming.

After retail therapy a surprise trip to Bottles instigated by our daughter! Atmosphere was relaxing and a warm welcome from the manager, wonderful location and a good choice of seating with a wonderful ambiance. The wine list was extensive and the menu for food was...

Went to Christmas market today from Cardiff. We pre booked several weeks in advance . Hannah was Brilliant sending menu and allowing us to pre-order our food so when we arrived our food was all ready for us. We were a table of 7 and...

I must start by saying I've always enjoyed Bottles and usually visit whenever I'm on a night out with friends. I visited on Friday Eve and it was quite busy. A number of us ordered white wine, which was ok, but one ordered a red....

We came here as a group last night to celebrate a birthday. From booking the event to leaving the building the service was fantastic. Joe was a brilliant host and made the night for us. Excellent value for money, well planned out and great food....

Great selection of wines and champagnes, and some great mid week deals on bottles. The malbec was lovey and the atmosphere was nice.

The tapas selection is varied. The dishes are cooked to order and the portions are good. The wine selection is good as you would expect from a wine merchants. The bar staff were friendly, polite and welcoming.

Had lunchtime treat of a platter of mixed meats and cheeses along with a bottle of crisp dry rose The platters are big and plenty of warm baguette The gorgonzola cheese looked fairly innocent but boy did it have a kick It was around 1.30pm...

It's rare to find a serious wine bar today but Bottles is it. The range is extensive and surprising as well as priced reasonably. But, and this is key, the live music on the evening I visited, was exceptional. Polly Edwards has a vocal range that is amazing and her phrasing is wonderful. For someone so young her presentation of lyrics far exceeds her years. Let's hope someone with the right contacts spots her.... Hers is a talent that deserves success.

I have reviewed Bottles before, but felt I must share again after we had lunch there to celebrate my wife's birthday. I went down the fishy route, having calamari, prawns and fish bites. My wife is vegetarian and had three options suitable for her including some absolutely beautiful hummus. The food was truly excellent and was surprisingly reasonably priced with the 'multibuy' offer. Add to this the fact that our host was perfectly attentive and extremely helpful, it made for a really special occassion for her. Nice atmosphere, good location - well done and thank you!

Love this place. We visit when we're in Worcester. This time, we had a wine tasting session. We were presented with 5 different types of wine to try and they were all really good. Our Sommelier was knowledgable, informative and good company. We had some tapas, which was good, but a little too much fried stuff for me. Overall we had a great time. I have one comment though. When we arrived, we tried to order a bottle of Premier Cru Chablis, but none was chilled. We then tried to order a bottle of Cloudy Bay, and none was chilled. We ended up with a bottle of prosecco. This is fine, but the business lost money because of a bit of disorganisation. That said, I would definitely recommend this place.

There are indeed a lot of bottles at Bottles, an impressive selection of wine from all around the world. However, Asahi beer got the nod over Cab Sav on the day.

10 of us visited Bottles last Friday for a wine tasting event courtesy of our Chairman and his wife. We arrived and had drinks at the bar but were advised on certain drinks before tasting so not to ruin our palette. After being seated Jo our Somelier explained the agenda and so the evening began. Not being a wine drinker it was a very interesting and informative evening with a quiz thrown in for good measure. Tapas arrived 3/4 of the way through and were delishous and and had obviously been thoughtfully chosen to compliment our wine. Highly recommend evening for either business or personal events.

Thoroughly enjoyed the tapas and Spanish Rioja. 4 of us dined, relaxed easy going atmosphere. Recommend the fish bites and halloumi fries, although it was all delicious! Barman/waiter was attentive and helpful. Definitely will be returning soon.

Been to this place a lot. Fantastic wine selection with excellent staff. Who no there onions. The food and bar snacks are fantastic. Really great place to have a chill out in. One off the gems of Worcester. # LOVE IT

Independently owned wine bar with a very extensive and truly international wine list. Wine shop inside. Very interesting range of wines, spirits, Ports and Gins. Sample wine evenings too. Nice menu for meats and cheeses to compliment the wines in a small and relaxed atmosphere at all times of day. Worth a browse, especially in the day, for a casual post shopping drink and bite. No other wine shop or bar like it in Worcester. Worth a visit.

Friends and I went to Bottles Wine Bar for good wine and Tapas. We were thoroughly impressed with not only the extensive choice of great wines on offer but the choice of Tapas to compliment these wines.

A great selection of wines (as you would expect) with friendly, welcoming staff and tasty, inventive tapas. I know chips don't count as tapas but they were exceptionally tasty!

First time visiting Bottles this evening. Relaxed place, nice wine and lovely tapas. Plenty of food and very tasty. Will be back for sure.

I'm a big fan of tapas and this was a superb lunch. Welcoming staff with service that is both unobtrusive yet on hand if needed. In the picture we have halloumi deep fried with sweet chilli, prawns with garlic, mushrooms and spinach in white wine & cream sauce, and lamb kebab laid on a lovely salad accompanied by complimentary bread and pitta basket.

We have visited many times for lunch whilst shopping in Worcester. The tapas is brilliant. Freshly made and very tasty.

I went for lunch having not been for a few months. The tapas style menu is good with plenty of options for non meat eaters. The food was freshly cooked and properly hot on arrival. The glass of wine was a good complement to the meal. They now have a wine tasting option using a pre paid card. As far as I know this is the only one in Worcester and a great idea! Prices are also good. The staff were helpful and friendly. I will definitely be going back soon!

We have used this place a few times now - sometimes for a light lunch, sometimes just for a glass of wine or five and sometimes to enjoy live music on a Sunday evening. It's a very comfortable place to be mainly because the staff make you feel very much at home. They are also quite engaging and go beyond the norm with their understated but sincere friendliness. Food is very good from a small menu. You wouldn't go here for a big family meal!The choice of wines is outstanding. It's also in a fairly vibrant part of town, and a relatively short walk from our home, which is a bonus. Nice one!

Visited with a friend after seeing an advert for their new food menu. All I can say is wow it was all fantastic. Ordered quite a selection from the tapas menu and it also gets served with a basket of fresh bread. It was tasty and filling. Shared a bottle of wine which was good value and service was friendly and all the staff were knowledgable. Will definitely be back !

A lovely friendly wine bar and merchants Great for a lovey drink 🍷and you can also bye or order your bottles wine to take home or have it delivered 👍👍👍

Comfy sesting, well spaced out. Great selection of wines with knowledgeable staff and tasting facilities. Sharing board options represent good value for an early (or very late) snack.

Dropped by to quench a thirst and as at same time as England rugby surprisingly the bar was relatively empty, much to our benefit. Shame we didn't have more time over the weekend or during the afternoon but would certainly recommend as great choice of wines form different levels of price to suit wine lovers

We been here twice my brother in law who owned hallo records his girl was playing here with her cousin they are worth watching.Sunday night is mike night for any artist

Nights out are rare and was looking forward to visiting this wine bar. Visited quite a few places over the years in Worcester but was pleased we were giving this place a go.

We booked to spend Valentine's evening at Bottles as we thought it seemed good value for £25.00 per head. The atmosphere was lovely with candles and rose petals on tables, the jazz band were great and added to the atmosphere, the manager and staff were very attentive (offering us an alternative to the sea food dish as my husband is allergic to prawns); we had 5 courses of canapés and 5 different wines which were presented and explained, to go with each course. Great value for money and well worth a visit if you're thinking of it for next Valentine's evening!

Friday night is wine tasting. Four wines selected by the house and nibbles for £10 per head. The staff are enthusiastic and helpful taking time to explain each wine. Wine and rose first followed by reds.

A fantastic bar with friendly staff and good wine! A great setting for a chilled out drink. Will definitely be coming here more often :)

What a great evening we had in Bottles for Valentines. The small jazz band were fantastic and really skilful musicians who set just the right atmosphere. Table were laid nicely and we enjoyed a whole generous range of nibbles and accompanying wine. Really good food and wine served with advice from the bar staff who were excellent. The new manager is doing a great job. Well done and thank you.

A lovely place to chill out with friends and eat an drink 🍷 Lovely staff There is a fantastic selection of wines to choose from It’s one of my favourite places 👍👍👍👍👍

My brother in law who owned Halo records invited me to see Immy sing as they have just done a record fantastic this is being releases 2/32018 they weee both fantastic now for bottles what a great place very nice manager and staff a great choice of wines it even got a wine shop I drank there beer very good on a Sunday night they have a open mike night for any one is this Worcester version of the cavern Liverpool very very good

Came here for a few drinks thought we’d start off with a cocktail £8.95 each rather expensive but we thought they must be good for the price. However when they arrived they weren’t fancy at all no sugar round the glass just very plain looking definitely not worth the money!

Would like to say a massive thank you to Hannah and her team who helped our works Christmas party turn out so well, everything was well organised and any requests we had for the day were agreed with no problem, the atmosphere was great and so was the food...we couldn’t have asked for it to go any better! Thanks so much to Hannah and the staff who worked on the day.

Popped in for a drink on NYE, The DJ was amazing and we ended up staying all night!

Came in December for Christmas do- the wine bar was not overly busy, tapas for £10 good value and authentic. Service was really good and of course there was a great selection of good wines. Recommended

Barmaid called me gay because in said I didn't like wine ??, how that correlates with wine preference ????

Have visited many times over the last few years on trips to Worcester.

We visited this Wine-bar twice during our time in Worcester. The second time was on a Saturday evening after dinner. The atmosphere was lively but sophisticated and not overly crowded. It very definitely specialises in wine but they also do a range of cocktails.

Great selection is wines. Staff are knowledgable and if not busy will have a chat with you. Come here quite often it's a lovely place to go with friends and very chilled

Llamamos a botellas más por curiosidad de intención y nos alegramos de haberlo hecho. Un par de bandejas de compartir, vino y una cerveza local fuimos extremadamente bien. Sin duda estar llamando de nuevo cuando en Worcester siguiente.
