Alcove Wine Bar

"Mark the bartender is an absolute gem. Love their tap selection and the overall environment. Love this neighborhood bar and the staff including Chris and Mark. They are true professionals and made me feel welcome from the time I walked in until the time I left!"

"The bar tender is the rudest guy I have ever met. Upon entering, the bar tender Mark was not very welcoming, and seemed as if he was sort of making fun of me with his everyday guests. Everything was okay from there because I sat outside for a little bit, but then I returned inside to complete some school work. Upon certain guests coming in, he then began closing every blind and all things down in our faces. When the customers stated that the place closes at 12am online, he then said that sometimes they close way earlier and that they weren’t ordering anything anyways???? Are you kidding me? Then the customers stated that they did not like his service and that they were going to complain. Mark kept responding okay over and over again extremely nonchalantly, and acted like he didn’t give two damns who’s business he is destroying, because at the end of the day, he still gets his little paycheck for treating people like that. It’s extremely disappointing, because I live outside of Dallas and this was the first coffee+wine shop I come to try…and that is the experience the owner wants customers to have? No thanks. Next…"

"Great coffee! Yes, it is located inside The Alcove which is a bar. Alcove coffee is available until the bar opens at 3 pm. Inside seating. Dog friendly outdoor seating. Give it a try... You'll love it."

"This is a shady business. The previous coffee shop here has been a staple of the neighborhood and was pulled up seemingly overnight with very little notice to the previous business that occupied this spot. Only to have the Alcove kick them out to open their own shop. This is NOT the same coffee shop the bar seems to be claiming it is. This is NOT a renovation. This is NOT a reopening. This is what stealing business looks like. Letting another business build clientele and rapport over nearly 10 and trying to steal it out from under them is a spineless move This is a business with a complete lack of integrity. Take your business elsewhere in the neighborhood."

"Unprofessionally run. I will never come back here after their horrific treatment of the State Street Coffee team, mandating they vacate so quickly, imperiling their business while telling customers the Alcove is simply “renovating”. Our memory is long and our crew of folks will never come back."
