I have been twice now. Once with my daughter and then a girlfriend. We were made so welcome and Pearl was an absolutely brilliant Sommelier!! We had fun and learned a lot. The food, wine, service and atmosphere was terrific!

One of my favourite places for a meetup in Islington and I'm not even much of a wine drinker. This place makes me interested in trying some though: it's got a huge selection with some really unusual (for me) European selections. Their wine offering is huge though and there will definitely be something to your taste or worth trying on their menu. Failing that the staff are skilled and knowledgeable and will recommend something to your taste. The cafe itself is a lovely, welcoming space, just off busy Upper Street and not far from Angel Tube Station. You can sit in or outside- the window seats are my favourite. Booking is advised though as most customers seem to make reservations. The food is pretty good too, with a selection of small plates and main courses. I like to get a selection of sides to share with the wine. They also sell beers and other beverages. Staff are friendly, welcoming and full of wine knowledge and advice. It's definitely worth a diversion from Upper Street.

After a dodgy start with the booking due to poor communication between the events team and wine bar, the problem was resolved. The small plates were excellent, intense flavours with delicate dressings on the side. Expert recommendations for wine from the South African guy, a Chardonnay from Stellenbosch was one of the highlights. Yes we will be back.

Alessandro and the Humble Grape team put together a beautiful wine tasting for 20 of us women who are part of my community called Untamed Sisters. We did a four part tasting which was fantastic, we learnt so much about each wine but Alessandro knew exactly when to keep it brief when we wanted to drink and keep chatting. Humble Grape created an excellent atmosphere and we will be doing another event very shortly. The food was exceptional as well! Thank you Alessandro and your team! Samantha, Founder Untamed Sisters

The place looks lovely from the outside, the interior is also quite nice and the staff is friendly but the wine is unfortunately quite awful. I tried several glasses (up to £18 a glass), they were average at best. I'm fully aware of the place's theme and I tried the wine from not so popular regions and wineries while travelling but it never meant that the taste would be completely off.

During a recent visit to Humble Grape in Islington, my friends and I encountered a series of disappointments that have led me to write this review . The menu selection, particularly the wine list, was surprisingly limited for a place that prides itself on its vino variety. Service was mediocre at best. An example of this? We got served with coffee saucers instead of proper plates... However, the most distressing part of the evening came at the end. We used their app to split the bill and left a discretionary tip, which we felt was appropriate given the service we received. To our astonishment, the tip did not contribute towards the service charge, and because we did not pay the full 12.5%, the manager confronted us. The insistence on paying the full service charge, despite the subpar service, was not only uncomfortable but also quite outrageous. It's unfortunate when a dining experience is marred by such issues, and it's even more regrettable when management fails to handle the situation with grace and understanding. It goes without saying, we won't be returning.

Came here for a Sunday roast and was spot on, we all really enjoyed it. Table of 4 all having roasts meant we got £35 off a bottle of wine, which went down a treat. Had the mixed roast which was £25, an absolute steal for the quality of it, the croquettes were amazing to start!
