Super cool wine and unique goods shop. I had discovered the place on accident after stopping by a shop down the street from them on accident. Great selection of beers, natural wines, liquor and snacks. The guy working there was super helpful, helped me navigate through their wide variety of unique beers to find a hazy IPA that was absolutely delicious! I definitely want to come back for their wine tastings and to pick up a bottle of bourbon . Oh and not to throw any of the other establishments under the bus but the pricing at Bar & Garden is super competitive if not significantly better than other spots within walking distance of there.

Great spot for buying small batch liquor from around the world! Love coming here for their $15 wine tastings on Thursdays and Fridays, they also have a pizza stand at the back to grab a bite with your bevs. The service is great! Meg, Austin and Eric are so fun to hang with and very knowledgeable about the grapes and origins of the wines we taste. 10/10 recommend!

Haven't had a bad glass/bottle of wine come out of this place. It's all really good and natural. Everyone is very knowledgeable and helpful. There are tastings thu/fri with a pop up pizza place in the back which is delicious. They also have amazing deserts. I like the tastings because it feels like a fun community with regulars to chat with. People bring their kids and dogs and just hang out. Fun vibes even if you don't know much about wine.

Fantastic, unique selection of wines and spirits. I really love that their prices are actually reasonable; lots of bottles in the $20 range. It’s great to be able to try new and interesting wines & spirits without breaking the bank. :) Looking forward to working through their very cool amaro collection as well.Lastly, their Friday tastings are also excellent- we’ll certainly be back! :)

The. Best. Wine. Shop. Lots of Georgian, Eastern European, Orange, Amber and Natural wines. The selection isn’t enormous. But what it lacks in size it more than makes up for in quality and depth. Staff is friendly and helpful. Design of the shop is aces. A must visit if you like this style of wine that’s growing in popularity. Also a great place to source non-alcoholic items like “Phony Negroni” 0 ABV gin, mixers, etc.

The best beer club in Los Angeles that no one talks about. $30 gets you a curated selection of beers that fit the season.The store also carries a wide variety of wine, liquor and spirits. Staff are always helpful and friendly.

I have been buying my wine exclusively from Bar and Garden since 2020. Since the peak of the pandemic. I also have been in their monthly wine club for just as long. The wine selection is great. Like most people during the pandemic, we were buying a lots of wine. That said, since the store has reopened to allowing the public inside the whole vibe there has been different. Sometimes they have tons of inventory other weeks bare shelves. The main owner Ryan moved away to Ventura. He really knows his stuff and could talk you through the selections they have when he was on site. Since he has departed, but still is an owner, the other staff/owners are subpar in comparison, often rude or indifferent (Chris has always been kind). For a small business, one would think customer relationships would matter to them. I guess not. I'm happy to take my business elsewhere, perhaps just down the street to Hi-Lo wine store and just maybe after 3 years of giving them my money every month, they will be polite and remember my name with my credit card on file. Gone are the days if you treat people like crap, they will Not keep coming back.

This place has an amazing selection of wines and a lot of them dry and relatively affordable, just the way I like it. They have a small and great selection of beers and some hard alcohol. We actually subscribe to their monthly wine club which gets us two bottles for $40. They have different versions of the club, we get the "Zebra" white+red combo. And they've almost all been amazing! I have not been let down by their selections. The wine club gets you a 10% discount on everything in the store also, which is great because I go relatively often. They have wine tastings all the time and now I heard the tastings are accompanied by pizza. Is it true??

A great little wine shop tucked away in the Helms District. They have a good selection and are quite knowledgeable. If you're looking for an obscure vintage (Opici pineapple wine... nudge nudge) they are happy to help you out. Even with the impossible ?? Wine tasting evenings are lovely and if you are lucky you might score some wild basil from the owner. I am looking forward to my next visit.

This is honestly the best wine shop in LA especially if you like low production and low intervention wines and unique spirits and beer. The staff here is always helpful and the selection is super diverse. They also have multiple price points for wine so you can walk out of there with a nice bottle of wine that is natural and minimally processed, usually biodynamic and/or organic, for like $12, sometimes less. They also have higher priced hard to find wines from obscure places too! Their wine clubs are super cool too because you get to experience wine you might not usually pick out on your own and you also get 10% off your purchases.

This is one of the best hidden gems of Culver City. The weekly, casual wine tastings are always stocked with unique and amazing wines. This place is the best!
