84 Visited 3/2020. First has bottleshop and you have to walk through narrow stairs to upstairs for beer restaurants. Beer menu was pretty impressive! Lots of new breweries and fresh IPAs. Tasters available for tickers. I had sandwich and it was anything special but it was biggest that I have ever had. Good place! |
86 Great place lost in the middle of Falls Church suburban wasteland. Awesome mix of good beers from Northern Virginia with a few others from around the country. Well selected focus on quality here. I only had the duck fries, which were good, but other stuff on the menu also looked good. Friendly service, and everythin is available in 4 oz pours. Good music and super packed on the Saturday when I was here. |
70 Dedicated small parking lot right in front. Cramped boutique with beer on the left and wine on the right as you walk in. The bar upstairs is upscale, but I did not see anything I wanted to try during my visits. Bottle selection is limited, but I typical land a few selections. Pricing seemed average for quality. They do have singles, but they don’t seem to want to break up their cans, hence the updated score. |
94 Pre-upstairs opening review:
Very nice bottle shop, with good selection of craft beers. Shelves and coolers. Clean, roomy, great location, friendly service. A solid bottle shop in Falls Church. Update: 12 tap growler station that now has crowlers too. Always have at least 1 Ocelot IPA on draft, and often have rare regional and nationals as well. Friendliest staff around. Great place, my go-to bottle shop.
Post-upstairs opening review:
After 18 months of permitting and construction, they finally opened the upstairs bar/restaurant. Wow. Gorgeous environs and amenities. Outstanding service (everyone gets cold filtered water glass, constantly refilled, personal and timely attention). Proper glassware. Great 24 tap list, with most available for crowlers and growlers to go (exceptions being Aslin and Veil, per brewery rule). Prices are lower than all competitors, and the 20% off happy hour deal is a steal (4pm-7pm). Food is 5 star. The only downside, and I mean the only downside, is that this place is so solid that it gets packed every night at 7:00 or so. I now basically live here. The downstairs is still the best bottle shop in the Falls Church area, and dare I say all of NOVA. |
84 A very tight, small shop split between wine and beer. The beer selection is small but very well-curated. A few coolers of six packs and a couple warm shelf units with singles. Taps behind the counter for growler fills. Service was great. Selection is great. Really happy I stopped in. |
76 About a three block walk down from Spacebar. Small shop, beer on the left and wine on the right as you enter. Nothing crazy here, but a good selection of stuff that is distro’ed in the area. Again, not sure what drives the ratings. Maybe I am just spoiled. |
82 Quite small boutique store, beer selection is well curated, mostly locals and imports, almost all high end, large tap list for such a tiny place. Very attentive service. Prices seem fair for a small place. |
82 Small dimly lit store with plenty of great beers. Staff is friendly. A bit on the pricey side. |
96 Finally stopped by here one day when I was in Falls Church. Very small space, but full of both wine and beer. Not as huge a selection as Norms or a Total Wine, but selection is really solid for 6 packs as well as individual bottles. Tap station is where it is at though. They have a very unique, obscure and local selection of taps that I haven’t seen anywhere else to date. Solid staff and decent prices makes this place worth a stop.
The relatively new restaurant upstairs makes this almost a can't miss location in the NOVA, and even DC area. Most consistent selection of some of the big-named VA breweries, with a lot of good, and sometimes more rare taps from around the nation. The food is excellent. The staff is quirky and fun and some of the best folks I've interacted with on a consistent basis. |
