This is a favorite for my husband and I. We usually order the flights, as it's a great way to try more variety. Kate has helped us every time and she is absolutely wonderful!

Wow this place is an absolute blast. My wife and I strolled in off the street and had an amazing time. The owner is so fun and friendly and the atmosphere was super fun! This place is a great wine bar and a great place to hangout!

Came to town to visit my sister and check out Jazz fest and this was one of the places that we hung out! One of the most inviting environments ever! Had some great conversation with the bartenders who were very easy to talk to and very timely when making sure their customers were taken care of! It definitely seems like the people working love their jobs. So exciting that they are open again and I heard rumor that they will be reopening The Plus after construction finishes! (Maybe end of summerish?)The patio off the back is super cute with plenty of high top tables to gather around on a nice night! The night we were there we got to see Nick Foytik preform! Super enjoyable and everyone had a great time!Also not usually something I mention in my reviews but their bathroom is ridiculously nice!! Well kept and beautifully decorated just like the entire place! I will most definitely be stopping in the next time I'm in town!!100% would support the owners here, you can tell their hearts are in it!!

I want to give a shout-out to the The Rev for being such an AMAZING host for our 20-year Memorial High School reunion, which was held July 20, 2019. To preface: I work in international education, and was planning our reunion from China of all places. As you might imagine, planning an event for 100+ people from abroad is no easy task. Combine this with the extra challenge of trying to communicate with a virtual Firewall in the way, and you can understand what an undertaking this was. The first issue was getting a venue. With the reunion being held during the same weekend as Country Jam and Rock Fest, our planning committee was a little bit nervous about the different venue options available. We were relieved to find that The Rev had availability for that weekend and would happily accommodate our group. We had a limited budget to work with for this event. Working directly with us, the fabulous Kate Haas, owner/manager, went about putting together a catering plan (heavy apps) that went under budget (and more importantly) appeased the diverse pallets of 100+. B/C of budget limitations, we opted to do a cash-bar w/ a complimentary champagne toast at 8:00 (which, by the way, was perfectly organized). A great offering of craft/domestic beers and wine + spirits gave everyone great beverage options. Bartending staff throughout the night were FANTASTIC! Being that we were celebrating our 20-year reunion, music nostalgia was KEY. Kate hooked us up with one of her specially-picked DJs for the night. Let me say: He was the star of the show! Non-obtrusive, but also knew EXACTLY what needed to be played at the EXACT moment. Many said afterwards that they had never experienced a better DJ. Get that man a raise! The Rev, itself, is amazing for hosting a group of 100 ppl or less. Great ambiance, an outdoor space out back - even a small room in back to use as central operations and/or additional space. Best of all, with The Rev being in the heart of DT Eau Claire, attendees can do some bar-crawling in after-event hours. All-in-all, this was an event for the ages. My HUGE thanks to Kate and her staff at the Rev for making this such a wonderfully positive experience. Got a group you're trying to plan an event for? Look no further than The Rev!

Want to try wine from around the world? Not just another wine stop, they've collected wines, and are "sharing" their finds. flights can be mixed and matched within their category: standard or premium. find one you like? BUY THAT BOTTLE. when it's out, it's out.

The Rev is an adorable, quaint, and classy spot. I had an amazing experience here. The wine is exquisite, serving sizes and prices extremely reasonable, service impeccable, and ambience perfect. You can’t go wrong here! The owner, Kate, is vivacious, FUN, and attentive! She BOUGHT me the “Bontons” because she knew I would like them, and they did not disappoint!! Will definitely be back!

My boyfriend had gotten me a gift certificate to The Rev for my birthday and we couldn’t have been more impressed. I enjoy a good box of Franzia and was a little worried that the place was going to be kind of high brow for me. This was not the case. It was a fun atmosphere and felt a bit more upscale without feeling pretentious. But, the best part about the place was the owner, Kate. We went with some friends and Kate was super accommodating. She addressed us all by first nam

She addressed us all by first name, made everyone feel comfortable, and was willing to go above and beyond. She spent time with all of us to find something every one of us would enjoy. She was very knowledgeable and pulled wines from the shelves based on what we liked. I noticed she did the same with every costumer, even when it got busy. It was easy to see that she loves what she does. We will definitely be going back.

This place has potential. It's a nice setting in the perfect downtown Eau Claire location. Could be a lot of fun for groups and couples alike. But there are problems to be worked out. GOOD: The overall concept is well-executed. Wine selections are clearly displayed on the overhead menu, with options for glasses or sample flights. Pricing is transparent and reasonable (more on that in a moment), and easy enough to follow along even if you've already had a drink elsewhere. I also like that you can choose a bottle of beer from the fridge if you don't want any of the wine selections. For me, this made the overall experience more approachable. The lounge area is warm and inviting. Relaxing club seats up front, with some tables next to the bar, and a small store in the back. The feel is late-middle aged cool. Service was very warm. NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: * The wine... was nothing special. While the prices were reasonable, even the "premium" wine was not all that noteworthy. If the Rev is going to succeed as a wine bar, I would recommend better selections. (The beer fridge, however, was very nice - and that saved it for me.) * The food menu situation is completely hosed. And to me there is nothing more discouraging than walking into a bar and being presented with a food menu... and an apology that the menu is completely out of date. Our host was apologetic and promised a new menu in the future. We hope so. Overall the Rev is definitely worth a visit for Eau Claire locals and visitors alike. It's grown-up cool, laid back atmosphere is good for a group of fun seekers out on the town. I'd only like to see improvements in wine quality and consistent food offerings.

Great atmosphere, great wine. Had a lovely time sampling wines. Felt the prices were very reasonable. There was an outdoor patio (shared with the Plus) and the indoor seating was nice, too
