Crispins
There is a reason why it is my first recommendation. And that is, it is the best Italian wine bar in New York City!

They serve perfection in the name of wine and trust me you won’t taste anything even close to that anywhere else in the whole city.

Ruffian
Another amazing option for wine lovers. Ruffian has over 250 natural wines selectively bought from small producers from parts of Europe. It is a small and cozy bar that you can visit after work.

Blue Ribbon Downing Street Bar
More than a wine bar, this place is well-recognized as a date bar. The ambiance, drinks, lights, everything is so romantic that you will ultimately expect couples around you. The customers who went to this wine bar reviewed it as ‘gem of a spot’ in the west village.

City Vineyard
If you are one of those who love rooftop dinners then this place is for you. City Vineyard has a rooftop bar that is affordable. I don’t know about you but this is a surprise for me. I love rooftop bars and restaurants but I love my money more and this place allows me to keep my love for both, simultaneously.
What customers look for:
Ambience should not even be a part of the question. It is a rooftop bar, of course the ambience is amazing, it has an amazing view that you just cannot miss.

Hospitality standards and services are the best. It is a luxurious experience. The wine and drinks are amazing and the food is also decent. The staff here is professionally trained and they treat you professionally.

Hygiene is taken care of. They swear by it. As i already mentioned the staff is professionally trained, they take care of every little detail that can make or ruin your experience. They care about your experience more than you can imagine and their quality of services will show that to you.
June Wine Bar
Another bar in the list for natural wine. The bar is your perfect neighborhood place in cobble hill. If you live around or get a chance to visit the neighborhood, consider checking this place out. It is a reasonably priced wine bar that is one of the great options to meet your friend after long. Just visit the place to spend some quality time with someone you would want to talk to for hours. This is that kinda place.
What customers look for:
Ambience is just beautiful. I don’t have the right words to elaborate how beautiful this place is. The interiors, the lights, I am in love with the lights they have. It is such a warm experience, especially when you are with someone you share a bond with.
Hospitality and management is amazing. The staff is friendly enough to recommend the best meal option for you and professional enough to actually give you the space you need. It won’t be one of those overly clingy experiences like we all have had in bars and restaurants.
Hygiene is also taken care of. The hygiene and cleanliness is well maintained in the bar and kitchen at every point.
