Natural wine bar & kitchen · Brooklyn
Pour something alive.
Forty-odd natural wines open by the glass, a small kitchen and one long marble bar. Walk in any evening from five.
Tue–Thu 17:00–23:00
Fri–Sat 17:00–01:00
Sun 15:00–22:00
Closed Mondays
One long bar, a fridge full of open bottles and someone happy to talk you into a glass you’ve never heard of. That’s the whole idea.
We pour wine from small farmers who work without chemicals and add almost nothing in the cellar. Some of it is cloudy, some of it fizzes a little, and all of it tastes of where it grew.
You don’t need to know any of that. Tell us what you usually drink, and we’ll find you the next thing.

Where to find us
214 Cedar Street, on the corner of Fifth. Look for the green door and the chalkboard outside. If the candles are lit, we’re open.
Two minutes from the Bedford Avenue stop. Bikes can lock up on the rail out front.
Keep me a glass.
Tables open two weeks ahead, or call us on (718) 555-0193. Half the bar is always kept for walk-ins, so it’s worth stopping by.
