Came here with my boyfriend for a quick drink! Victoria was amazing, she gave great service and great suggestions. I highly recommend coming here and enjoying the pretty view
Love this place. Great selection of less common wines. I love sitting on the patio with the ocean view
Very nice place absolutely you have to see The food is also delicious. You're not going to get dinner here but it's a great spot for a drink or appetizers while watching the sunset over the ocean.This spot had the best atmosphere, service and food/wine selection. We are so excited to return one day!! Strongly recommended.
Was walking on Prospect Street looking for someplace to pop into and ended up at We Olive & Wine Bar. You first walk into their cute storefront which had lots of goods on display for sale. Towards the back is their bar area and kitchen which leads to a patio overlooking views of the ocean. They had a decent amount of guests for a Wednesday mid-afternoon, but it was the day before the 4th of July so lots of people are vacationing and off from work. We sat outside on the lower patio. The entire staff here is super friendly and welcoming. I believe our server's name was Victoria and she was fantastic. We got the cheese & charcuterie board which we absolutely loved. Each item was delicious and complemented the others on the plate well. The fresh bread served with our board came out hot straight from the oven and tasted incredible! They drizzle garlic olive oil and sprinkle coarse salt on top. I'd go back for the bread alone. I also got Edelzwicker orange wine which was a refreshing, fruity option without being overly sweet. I recommend stopping in if you're in the area!
Hidden Gem inside an olive oil store. We love coming here for a quite date night watching sunset and enjoying delicious small dishes and great wine. Tonight we ordered our favorite humus and the cheese and meat selection. For wine we chose the 2023 Giornata 'Il Campo Bianco, Paso Robles. Phenomenal! They also offer sandwiches and flatbreads.
Randomly came upon this place because a parking spot opened right in front and I was looking for a cute place to have lunch anyways. Safe to say I’m glad I ended up here! You enter into their storefront where they have a ton of delicious looking olive oils, dips, sauces, and wines. Then the back opens onto a balcony with a decent ocean view (theres two levels). Tasty food! Even though I accidentally ordered like a pound of arugula because I didn’t realize it also came on the flatbread LOL. Ended up eating every bite anyways! Under the arugula on the flatbread, there was really good prosciutto, cheese, and grilled onions (yum). Cute brunch vibe, there were dogs on the patio so definitely dog friendly and outside heaters
As someone who used to frequent wine bars but no longer drinks alcohol I appreciate that they had some very delicious non alcoholic drinks. Nice view!
Relaxed vibes, nice patio space, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Nicely curated wine list and tasty small bites. The dip duo is a good choice.
