A Michelin-Trained Wine List on Quiet Clinton Street
This cozy Lower East Side wine bar pairs a curated list by a Michelin-trained sommelier with seasonal plates and warm hospitality.
Why this stop works ✨
Brick Wine Bar sits on Clinton Street on the Lower East Side, laid out to feel uncrowded in a part of town where that is rare. The wine list is the centerpiece, curated by a Michelin-trained sommelier, and the kitchen backs it with seasonal plates.
The room strikes an unusual balance, quiet enough to read a book over a glass yet social enough to make a night of it. Sidewalk seating opens up when the weather allows, and the hospitality runs genuinely warm. A Michelin-trained wine list in a room this calm is a rare Lower East Side combination.
At 5.0 stars across 126 reviews, the crowd raves about the wine, the plates, and the easy pace. Come on a weeknight when it is quiet, let the sommelier steer you to a glass, and take a sidewalk seat with a seasonal plate if the weather cooperates.
