User Reviews of Discovery Wines

Yelp.com Review - by Melody H.

5.0 of 5 stars. I told them what I'd be cooking and they told me how to pair it. Wow, good call, guys. I also like not feeling cramped because it sucks to walk around in a wine shop and feel like you might knock…

Yelp.com Review - by Gabby D.

3.0 of 5 stars. For some reason, I can never remember the name of this place. Between this place and September, I can't keep it straight. I always say I'm swinging by "Midnight...November" to pick up some wine. Mmm,…

Yelp.com Review - by Will D.

5.0 of 5 stars. The people doing the wine tasting forgot what I looked like and let me go through twice. You can take your dog into the store but you they will not serve him wine. We need a place like this in…

Best wine store in the EV and LES!!

I don't get these reviews! Discovery has both a large selection and a GREAT selection. And the staff has never led me wrong, whatever I wanted to spend. Get to know the staff and you will have the perfect...

Yelp.com Review - by Rell L.

5.0 of 5 stars. This store rules. For me it's all about great value wines. So many great bottles for under $20 and always new specials/recommendations. That guy Scott nails it every time I ask for a food pairing…

Yelp.com Review - by Nada O.

4.0 of 5 stars. They didn't have what I was looking for (Borsao) but the staff was extremely helpful and recommended another great wine instead. I think the selection is not as great as the other commenters claim -…

What is this place?

I've shopped here just a few times and never been asked if I needed help. Seems like the nerdy guy with glasses is too busy drooling over his hot cashier. When they claim there is a tasting I feel so awkward...

Where the beef? Or Bordeaux, or burgundy?

It's the holiday season and I need to buy gifts. My friends, well at least my wine geek friends and parents, will really appreciate some fine wines and spiirits. I stopped in to discovery and thought such an...

Just figured out why this store has such a high rating....

I've been really perplexed on how such a mediocre store can have such a long list of glowing reviews...then it finally dawned on me - ALL of these glowing reviews were written by the folks that run the place!...

Yelp.com Review - by stephanie u.

4.0 of 5 stars. This store is HUGE and newly renovated. Their selection is vast, but you can always ask for a reccomendation, the staff really know their stuff!

Yelp.com Review - by Chris L.

4.0 of 5 stars. 70% of their wines are under $20 - Discovery Wines is a fantastic place to find decently priced wines in the East Village - wines are organized by region and if you need a little guidance, the…

Great Experience

If you are uncomfortable, intimidated, or just plain irritated by pretentious wine snobs then this is the store for you. The store is staffed by knowledgeable, approachable, professionals that can help you...

Too good for you.....skip it!

Great wine to start! Better service and knowledge (oooh, who doesn't like the scanner?!?!?!?) You probably don't know know what good wine tastes like anyway so this is the place to visit so you can fake it! If...

What a fabulous place!

Recently I used Discovery Wines for providing the alcohol for my company's holiday party. The staff, especially Scott, could not have been more helpful in helping me select great wines and vodka for the...

Fab Find

Discovered this gem at a recent private wine tasting. Great space with wine tasting area at the side. Great selection of wines. Friendly and helpful staff. Ingenious system to scan each bottle, providing you...

THE ONLY WINE SHOP

This place is excellent! I was not expecting much other than a simple wine store and a few grumpy people to help find a bottle of wine... Boy was I mistaken!!! This place was filled with a massive collection...

Fun Wine Store

Fabulous wine shop which is not stuffy, has great selection and price range with very knowledgeable people who help you find exactly what you are looking for. The shop design is sleek, cool and spacious!

New way of doing business

Finally a retailer who is focusing their energy on the juice and not the label. This place is the home of the down sale, "spend less per bottle and come see us again" seems to be their mantra.

Private Event

I had a private event at the store in their tasting area, they could not have been more helpful in choosing the wines and insuring we had a great time. Highly Reccomend.

Big Grapes, Small Dollars

Discovery Wines is a welcome addition to the Lower East Side. The store has a wide variety of wines at reasonable prices, and a very friendly staff (and clever bar code reader kiosks which describe all the...

At Long Last

Finally, a wine store for the LES/E.Village that sells great bottles of vino - and at reasonable prices. No more buying wine from behind bullet-proof glass! Their staff is also really knowledgeable and...
