After so many friends and family recommendations I finally had the Archives experience for myself. First off I can’t believe I waited so long. I went in to purchase some wine and ended up having the most amazing 2 hour experience. My thanks to Douglas who help us pick the best wines for us and was incredibly welcoming to the store. If you get a chance it’s worth a visit.

Non pretentious wine bar/store. Great prices and an eclectic variety of wines for purchase. Back bar seating area is nice and cozy for a few friends to gather around for a drink.

My wife and I stopped in one summer day, we have returned many times since and will continue to do so. If you like discovering great wine that cannot be purchased at the LCBO then this is your place. Some wineries are too small to get into the LCBO - Archives is there to represent these wineries. Small batch local wines? They have that too. We hosted a Wine and Cheese event there recently and it was a smashing success. The wines were wonderful and their hospitality ever better. Give Archives a try and you will not be disappointed.

Robbie is the man to go to! Whether you’re looking for a bottle of wine to impress at a dinner party, or something to sip on a cozy night in with the spouse, he has something for you. He knows his inventory and as is always friendly about getting to know what he think you’d like. I always try to pop in when I’m in the area, because you never know what bottles you might find, and might not stock again. Can’t say enough good things, so you’ll just have to check it out for yourself!

Archives is a great little shop in downtown St. Catharines. Good selection of local wines (some exclusive to the shop!) with great service from owner, Robbie. Robbie knows his wine and is happy to walk you through his selection and give recommendations. I also appreciate that he highlights new up and coming wineries and hosts winemaker-led tastings. 10/10 will come back here!

Archives is a much needed addition to downtown. It has all your wine needs and they are always there to provide perfect suggestions!! Definitely a must if you’re looking for a great wine to go with dinner or even a glass on the patio.
