Avant-garde cocktails, natural wine$$lower-greenvilleTue-Sun 5pm-12am, Mon closed
Lower Greenville cocktail bar with a notably strong natural wine section in the menu, serving producers the cocktail crowd discovers almost by accident. The bar team approaches wine with the same ingredient-forward curiosity as their cocktails.
Order: Natural wine staff pick; French onion soup cocktail alongside a glass of Jura
Tip: Worth visiting for wine even if cocktails are not your focus. The natural wine list runs 15-20 bottles deep with knowledgeable staff guidance.
Wine bar, wine education$$$bishop-artsSat 5pm-9pm; wine shop and classes by appointment; special dinners monthly
Texas's only Master of Wine Dilek Caner curates this intimate Bishop Arts wine bar and shop with about 300 labels. Blind tastings for certification students, monthly dinners, and Saturdays-only bar service.
Order: Blind tasting flight with curation by Dilek Caner; any producer dinner pairing
Tip: Full-service bar runs Saturdays only. Retail shop open by appointment for weekday visits. The free Saturday tasting (4-6pm, select weeks) fills fast.
Natural wine bar, bottle shop$$bishop-artsWed-Thu 1pm-9pm, Fri-Sat 12pm-11:30pm, Sun 12pm-9pm, Mon-Tue closed
Dallas's first exclusively natural wine bar and bottle shop run by Genevieve Weaver and Jessica Martinez. A patio wine-dow for walk-up pours, a bring-your-own-food culture, and an education-forward staff.
Order: Orange wine by the glass; pet-nat sparkling; any staff-pick bottle
Tip: Bring food from nearby Bishop Arts restaurants; it is encouraged. The outdoor patio wine window makes evening pours feel festive even on tight budgets.
Spanish wine bar, tapas$$knox-hendersonMon-Thu 5pm-12am, Fri 4pm-12am, Sat 12pm-12am, Sun 12pm-11pm
Knox-Henderson anchor with a 400-label Spanish and global wine list, pintxos, jammon iberico, and a marble bar that runs warm from early evening until last call. One of the most reliably lively wine spots in the city.
Order: Txakolina by the glass; jammon iberico plate; pan con tomate
Tip: Bar seating is walk-in and often better than the dining room. Weekend reservations required for table dining. The daily paella (limited portions) is worth building dinner around.
Wine retail bar$$bishop-artsMon-Sat 1pm-9pm, Sun 1pm-6pm
Approachable Bishop Arts wine shop and bar stocking Australian, French, Argentinian, and South African labels. Walk in, pick a bottle, sit at the bar or patio with a snack board and stay as long as you like.
Order: Wine-club staff pick by the glass; seasonal charcuterie plate
Tip: Join the monthly wine club for member access and bottle discounts. Patio fills first on good-weather evenings; arrive early.
Mexican wine lounge, agave cocktails$$bishop-artsWed-Sun 4pm-12am, Mon-Tue closed
Dallas's first Mexican wine lounge, from the Vinito shop owners, with over 100 Mexican wine labels in every varietal alongside agave cocktails. A direct pipeline from Baja, Sonora, and Coahuila winemakers to Bishop Arts.
Order: Baja California tempranillo; mezcal negroni with Mexican dry vermouth
Tip: The wine list is the most comprehensive Mexican wine selection in the city. Order bottles to explore producers you have never tried; prices are fair.
