Coast Wine House

"We had a wonderful Sunday lunch celebrating a family birthday. This venue is a very cute little spot, with a cosy and spotlessly clean interior. We were surprised to see that we were the only guests on arrival but appreciated being well looked after by the waitstaff. Our waitress Ray was very helpful while we were being indecisive choosing a bottle of wine and allowed us to sample a few reds before coming to a decision. She knew each flavour profile very well and talked us through our personal preferences. She also was very helpful in explaining the food options and offering some suggestions to meet dietary needs. The charcuterie board, salad, olives and dip were all excellent, made with fresh ingredients and some interesting twists on cheese and typical bean dips. We had such a lovely meal that we felt like ending the afternoon with some cocktails - highly recommend the Autumn Spiced Espresso Martini. All in all, we had the perfect birthday lunch and will definitely be back to explore the wine tasting events!"

"I’m not sure what happened to this place. Last year I visited Coast Wine House a few times over the summer and it was a treat. It was a great wine bar in Dublin. I love the location, it is a short walk from downtown. The staff were very attentive, knowledgeable and positive. The wine selection was diverse and we could sample any wine. I decided to go back last weekend and I was very disappointed. First off, it was Friday night and the place was empty. (First red flag) We took a seat in the back and it took a while before the waiter came over to us (around 10 min). We got water and I asked to try a wine they had on the menu. The waiter told me they aren’t allowed to give out samples. He said he would get in trouble. I was confused because this is a wine bar with a limited menu that rotates monthly. So I guess management expects the customer to know about the wine on their menu before they walk in. Their menu doesn’t even include a flavor profile for any of the wines. I spent $15 on a glass of wine and because there was no flavor profile on the menu and I wasn’t able to taste it, I didn’t like it. No doubt if I had been able to sample the wine, my date and I would have spent $60 plus there. But we split one glass and left. I’m sorry I hope this place changes and becomes great again."

"Cool little spot. We only stopped by and had a couple of drinks. The wife liked the wine selection but only had a couple of beers to offer."

"If you want a new "happy place" for any occasion cannot stress enough that Coast is it. They do the cutest, most well thought-out menus and themed events all the time and the wine, cocktails & snacks you legit can't go wrong. But also, the service is as great as the decor is vibey (and it is THE MOST vibey)! I love how they are super knowledgeable but still make wine approachable/fun for even the most novice wine drinker (me). If they have frosé, GET IT."

"Great bottle shop with a number of great wines available. They also have a nice menu of small items for a light lunch or an afternoon snack. The inside, patio and side yard have great little places to sit. Get a reservation or get there early!"
