This location is right off of the highway. It does not look like much from the outside but the inside is really cute. Thee atmosphere seemed very open and relaxing. I did get a winery vibe from the wine barrels and the beautiful lights that have been strung up.They have all different types of Alcohol. You can find beer, wine and Whiskey. The air conditioner was low so it was very cool and comfortable. The inside was extremely clean in my opinion.Our waiter was very friendly and outgoing he was the only one waiting on all of the tables. I feel like he did an amazing job of keeping everyone everyones drinks filled. He remembered everything our order was correct and he did check on us frequently.I tried out the $6 wine flight. I wanted to try something different because I mostly drink whiskey but I decided to give wine a try. I dont really like wine so I wouldnt order it again but but $6 for the wine flight was a really good price. I think the next time I will try I some of the different types of ciders that they had. My husband and my friends is tried a German beer and a Brazilian beer. Is they really liked the German beer the most.For our appetizer we chose the cheese with olives and a fruit puree. The cheese flavor is not too strong its really nice.I would describe it as a light cheddar flavor. I am not sure but I think the cheese was mozzarella. The Cheese was inside of bread that was some sort of croissant. The Croissant was very light and soft it had a wonderful buttery flavor.Is for our meal we had a Rubin sandwich with an Aju sauce We also added a side of grilled asparagus and cheese risotto. My husband enjoyed the ruben sandwich he said it had a great roast beef flavor and enjoyed the cheese that was on it. Our asparagus was really small but it taste really good. Is the risottto was not cooked all the way so we didnt finish it. The flavors was wonderful but it was still very firm.Is our friends shared a steak dinner with vegetables. They ordered their steak medium and it was cooked as they ordered it. The Vegetables were cooked perfectly they were not overcooked and they were seasoned. Is our friends have been in popular bluff for 3 weeks we have eaten at a lot of different locations. They said so far this was their favorite meal. They said the steak was perfect.I am giving 5 starts because overall everything was wonderful. We would visit this location again if you have found my review helpful please give me a thumbs upππ you can also follow me for more reviews.#beer #wine #wisky #dinner #stringlights #romantic #different #winebarrel #steak #hangout #koolspot
Went for our honeymoon. The food was excellent, the lady made a big slice of cheesecake for me and my wife to share and put little gold glitter hearts in on it with a nice strawberry glaze when she found out it was our anniversary. Really laid back atmosphere.
Minus one occasion with the Waiter who, although properly trained and educated on the menu, had the personality of an overbearing egotistical Fighter Pilot, this establishment is superb and hands down one of the best restaurants in Poplar Bluff, America.A wide assortment of wines and other spirits only accents the various menu choices. Easily substituting sides has never been an issue. For Poplar Bluff, America hands down the best (only) Lobster Bisque in town.Iβve read through other reviews who found fault with the manner in which their food was prepared. Hint: itβs not McDonalds, itβs ok to ask for changes which the Wine Rack has always Obliged.A Superior Dining Experience of the region.(Minus one arrogant waiter)
The food is very good. I substituted grilled Cesar salad for potato and was pleasantly surprised by the flavors and crunch. The cheese board had three wonderful creamy types - cranberry, apricot and of bleu. The surprise was the grilled asparagus. Seasoned very well with the right level of crisp and no woody pieces.The rib eye was grilled as I requested - medium. Too often medium comes out medium rare but this was done the way I like them. Good seasoning and the char flavor came through.The wine is good I had a red cab. Good flavor though perhaps a little too generous of a pour. One was sufficient for the meal.The atmosphere is very casual. Yet it is quite quaint with the shelves of wine and bourbons displayed for sale.I did jot partake of the large beer selection with some in each category. Some unusual brands mixed in with many standard fare brands like Stella, Bud, Miller and the like. With the selection, I suspect whatever type of beer, ale, or cider you enjoy they will have one for you.If I am back in Poplar Bluff, I will stop in for another meal.
Excellent service atmosphere was quaint food and drink amazing would recommend it for nice romantic place to dine
Used to be great must have new owner ? July 2019 How things change, 30 minutes waiting for a sandwich, not good after two bites I hope I dont get sick. Service terrible we were the only ones there and still took 30 minutes to get a meal. Will not be going back. Fyi dont ask to use the wifi, they will tell you it does not work.And the prices....wow
Wow, what an impressive establishment. They have one male bartender that I can only describe as a savant mixologist; serving up gin drinks that are ridiculously fantastic. As for the food, I went with the recommend chicken and tortellini in a white sauce. It was so awesome, I went back two days later to order the same thing. My buddy ordered it with the red sauce and couldnt stop eating until the plate was clean. This Place Is Awesome. Hopefully they will consider branching out to St. Charles, Missouri. Oh, and the menu prices are more than reasonable. Five Stars!
Def recommend!! Such a good vibe good food, and was even able to order drinks that wasnt even on the menu. First time to go our with my husband in five yrs and I had a great time last night
Run very fast away from both of these place. So over priced and so very bad service and food/coffee. The wine rack is trying to be a star restaurant but could not make up there mind of any design. The cooking area was of a fast food joint, tables had cloth table clothes and napkins. The silverware didnt match pepper shaker was empty. We waited 20 minutes for appetizers. Then we recieved over cooked scallops with a risotto that had no flavor was undercooked and appeared to be minute rice. My appetizer wasnt even something I ordered but so hungry I ate it. We are now awaiting or meal (sandwiches) after about another 30 minutes I could see our food. It was set aside and left there. Our waitress other waitress and the hostess walked by our food and looked at it repeatedly. I finally got up and asked the cook what the order was waiting for because its been setting there for 15 mins. He said I was going to remake it because I put onions on it. I took our plates and took them to our table. We didnt receive a sincere apology the waitress never said anything to the manager who also seen me take our plates to the table. After almost 2 hours we got our check. The waitress stood over us waiting for us to pay and then was angry because we didnt leave a tip and snatched the signed receipt out of our hands. This all for $60.00. If I had realized that the wine rack was connected to the Java shop we would have never went there. Java shop coffee my daughter and I paid for about a month prior to us going to the wine rack was $12 for two coffees that wasnt drinkable we both poured out the coffee. So save yourself, your time and your money and stay very far away from either of these places. Would have liked to put negative stars but they dont have those.
NOTE: No longer a coffee place. But great beer and wine selection.
Great atmosphere and vibe, Atwood was an amazing bartender who helped my friend find a drink she would enjoy. Didnβt try the food, but have heard great things about it so definitely will the next time we go back!
The risotto was soup and bland. The scallops were over cooked and rubbery. The Reuben had more fat then my belly. And my hot sandwich waited in the window for 15 minutes while we waited for the cook to refire my wifes French dip sandwich, forwhich he never refired. My wife got up and requested the sandwiches and served us. And all of this took 2.5 hrs in a restaurant that was half full. There was no sense of urgency to serve their customers. PS...the seating is not made for disabled people.
The food was decent but it took a very long time to actually get it and I thought alot of it was too expensive
Always one of my top three favorite places to eat when I travel back to my home town. Service is usually hit or miss, depending on who is serving your table. Food is absolutely amazing and very high quality. Prices are slightly above average for the town, but are extremely cheap for the quality of food you are getting. My only real complaint with this place is that there is always one food item that they are completely sold out of when I order it, almost every single time. I guess that comes with the territory of having great food, people order it out of stock!
An incredible experience. Most restaurants in Poplar Bluff have deep fried food only but not at this place. Everything served here is fresh and absolutely wonderful. You want a healthier and tastier option? This is your place. There is something for everyone.Additionally, they have a very large selection of beer from around the world and all priced reasonably. No other place really compares. This will be our go to place next time we stop by at Poplar Bluff.
Great food and drinks. Ill be back
Love the wine rack. The food is always good and great service!
VERY VERY VERY disappointing! We had $32 ribeye steaks that were inedible! Stringy fat throughout the whole stake. Half over cooked the other half under cooked and room temp. Let the server know how disappointing, she asked me if I wanted to talk to owner, I told her no but she said they really need to know about serving poorly prepared food. Never saw the owner, guess they didnβt care about customer satisfaction. Server was super sweet. Atmosphere is uncomfortable, more like a cheap coffee shop with table clothes. It only gets one star and that is for our server.
Dont order the tuna it was terrible
The food and atmosphere was good
Very good service, helpful and treats you like family! The food is most excellent and served properly. Drinks from the bar are made by an extremely knowledgeable lady by the name of Brittany who treats you as a close friend. I cant say enough for this establishment!!! AWESOME!!! Please do yourself a favor and try it out for dinner and a glass of fine wine or a mixed drink, you will go back!
Used to be good. They are definitely buying lower quality product; using roast beef used to make steak and mushroom panini.
Good food and service
The atmosphere is worth the visit for a couple of out of towners. My husband had the gyro and I enjoyed the baked Brie, Brianβs steak bites, and the creme brΓ»lΓ©e. Tons of delicious food.
Nice place, good service for a larger group. Great food.
Very nice place, small but food is excellent. The lamb sandwich plate was the best I had ever are a great selection of wines and a great atmosphere. Great service. Just everything about it is 5 star quality.
I had left a review on here in February, but it got deleted. apparently they screen their reviews and have them deleted. make no mistake- this is not a four star restaurant. I ate here on a Tuesday night. the highlights:- it took 20 minutes to get MENUS and 15 additional minutes to get WATER. I should have left at that point-I ordered a meal with an extra side. it was the chicken and pasta with red sauce option, plus a starch. the waiter explained that I could not have an extra side. I stated twice that I would pay extra; after all- there were individually priced starches. it took 40 minutes to bring the meal, and they did not give me pasta with red sauce! seriously?! the waiter said it was because I ordered the extra side. they need to train their staff on how to take orders.- I had to ask for the bill twice, and it took them 30 minutes to bring it. after I asked the first time, the waiter returned 15 minutes later and asked if I wanted my bill. seriously?summary- a two hour meal, my water was re-filled once. horrible. the waiter was arrogant too. it was a TUESDAY. completely awful. NO TIP was left. awful. double thumbs down!
Absolutely amazing. The only thing better than the food was the service. Filet was cooked to perfection in the most delicious red wine and bone marrow reduction, tender asparagus, and the best potato gratin you will ever eat. Followed up with a tiramisu I can only describe as heaven. Would give 10 stars if I could. Definitely a must return
The day cook Bobby is amazing! All ways amazing and creative soups made fresh every day! I always look forward to trying new things!
The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and did a great job. Our food was well prepared by someone who loves to cook. The price was in range. This was a great find.
Servers were great! This cute little restaurant had a wonderful atmosphere to it! Dinner was absolutely delicious. In the end I would highly recommend coming to this little joint!
The staff are very nice and helpful people. Great selection of drinks and fantastic atmosphere.
The food is amazing. They have almost any wine you can think of as well as other alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages and the desserts are divine. Also the coffee shop is extravagant with everything from coffee to lattes to smoothies!!!! On top of all that the service is over the top and the workers are so so friendly and helpful.
Service was excellent! Food was unbelievablely good, atmosphere was very relaxed. Enjoyed the experience. Only drawback, its a little pricey. Good for special occasions though!
Good food and large selection of drinks but kinda pricey.
Sure beats the usual fast food stop. The food and ambience are good. It helps to have lunch with a good friend...who occasionally pays the bills.
Coffee could be hotter our white chocolate mocha was just not hot enough
Good food very accommodating staff
Great food. Just a little slow on service, so allow extra time if youre in a hurry. I am never in a hurry when I go so its prefect for me.
Bartender was was cool. Liberal customers come in and rhey tell you to leave. If you dont agree with their policies then you need ro leave. I will never go back. Asked to leave because of my views...or call the armed police? You can get all the same beers anywhere in Missouri.
Absolutely amazing food, welcoming and cozy staff. Great beer and wine selection
Delicious, inspired dishes and drinks that will have you feeling like royalty! Great events, staff, and music. Very cozy venue for parties and casual get togethers alike ^_^ I cant think of a better place in town.
On a Friday night this place refused to serve my family coffee untill all of the diners had left. This was after a previous bad visit when the milk in my coffee tasted like it was on the way or already expired. I gave them another chance because we really enjoyed this place when we lived nearby in 2010. I guess that was mistake.
One of my favorite haunts...five star food, drinks and staff
Bartender is amazing, shes very knowledgeable and makes great cocktails. The food is always good, and its a great place to bring friends!
Wanted a nice, light lunch. I got a half sandwich BLTC and the farmers market salad with wine and cheese dressing. All ingredients were quality and tasted great.We also had a half chicken bacon ranch panini with a bowl of their soup of the day. The panini wasnt bad; but the soup, beer cheese and potato, was absolutely spectacular.A nice Caribbean colada to go with it all and we had a great lunch, good portions, at a reasonable price.
Filet was cooked to perfecton. Exceptional wine and beer choices. Wait staff was attentive. Cozy atmosphere and soft music.
Wow 10 people in the place. Been sitting here waiting for my drink and food for almost 30 min. My brother received his drink in a few minutes. I have never see service like this from a coffee shop. Im currently thinking about walking across the street to KFC. I will give it a few more minutes then I will be leaving.
Our food was terrific, good beer and wine selection and the ambiance is eclectic and fun. Highly recommended.
Friendly staff. Cozy environment. DELICIOUS food. Fairly decent prices
Good place good food great selection just a little dark inside
Never again π food wasnt edible. Burger was most likely left over from lunch. Chicken couldnt be chewed. Wine glass was filthy with someone elses lipstick. Going to Costellos to have a nice dinner!
Great liquor selection . awesome food . friendly service
Took 50 minutes to get our lunch. Baked potato was warm, but still raw. You couldnt even stick your fork in it.
Great food and service. Highly recommend.
I was very disappointed with our service. A group of friends and I went out for drinks and we werent disruptive. Our waitress was rude and ruined the vibe of the whole night, which was a shame because the live music was good and the drinks nice. Unfortunately for my friends and I, we will be going elsewhere when we go out again. Its disappointing considering we would rave about this place.
It really depends on when you go. There isnt much consistency. I do love their seafood salad with wine and cheese dressing.
Is a really great place to do meeting or events at! Had a great waitress!! Will definitely be doing another Thrive event!!
Very good food. Neat atmosphere. Very comfortable place.
Staffs line dancing was the highlight. Great place friendly staff. Ask for the beer to be thigh temperature
Such a lovely place to visit for a quiet delicious meal where the servers are well knowledged and very attentive
Fantastic food, super slow service. If you want a drink refill, you will have to ask, we thought it was just an off night, but the service is always slow....
Great food!
Awesome Service, Wonderful Delicious Food and workers that treat you like Family!!! It does not get Better than The Wine Rack!!!
Nice staff cool environment
The food had no flavor. The steaks did not get seasoned nor were cooked with any fire. There was not any steak sauce available because they are delusional about the fact that their steaks do not need it. The only fine dining about this place is the high price.
Good food nice ambiance
Love their food... such kind people. Try the pizzas made to order.
Very good food the steak bites were cooked to my taste as ordered
The food was delicious and customer service was excellent. Will be back for sure.
Service was excellent. I had the Tuscan Herb Chicken and it was delicious and the portion size was more than I could eat.
The food was delicious and the service was very friendly!
Darling sand which shop for daylight and steak house in the evening. I love this restaurant. What a lifesaver for Southeast Missouri.
Nice place to relax, good food and you can wine a little too.
Good food, great service. Nice place to try in Poplar Bluff!
Fantastic $$$-$$$$ fun, quaint staff friendly
Ate on a saturday night and to our suprise a local cover band was set to play. Food was good tho seemed pricey. Wine was fairly priced. Enjoyed the atmosphere.
Enjoyed our visit to the Wine Rack. Good drinks and food and excellent service.
Great atmosphere. Staff friendly. Tiramisu is phenomenal
This was our first time dining here. The food is the BEST in town. We will be going back!
Eclectic menu, with a fantastic chef. The service is usually outstanding, although you may benefit from making a reservation.
The caramel latte with mocha was horrible. The service was horrible. The other workers acted like we didnt even exist. The barista had zero clue what he was doing. So we will be stopping to get truck stop coffee to wash the taste out.
It was delicious.....friendly place...loved it
Very good service and food
Took a recommendation from the hotel and it was hot rrible service food tasted horrible. Manager couldnt operate cash register correctly. Would never return or recommend to my worst enemy.
Cute little deli with a good selection of beers. Was a bit spendy for what you get tho.
Great diamond in the rough!!! Red wine, red meat, Ready to go back!
Always a great choice when Im in town, but it would be nice to be able to see the full menu for both the Wine Rack and Java Stop on the website.
Nice place. Great atmosphere.
Great place to take your lady
Yes, yes, and yes. Excellent food, beverage selection, and service.
Absolutely amazing lunch. Staff is awesome.
Always have a good time at Wine Rack. My favorite place in PB
Had a great dinner special, with friends.
Top notch source for delicious craft beer in the middle of nowhere. :)
