Lawrenceville · $$ · No. 45 of 157 overall
A tiny Butler Street wine bar with a name that is a joke and a list that is not. Tell them what you like and let them ignore you productively.
Order: A glass you have never heard of and a cheese plate

Lawrenceville · $$ · No. 100 of 157 overall
A sommelier-run corrective to Pennsylvania's soulless wine-buying experience. A tight, globally minded list built around character and farming, not points. Drink in or grab a bottle to go, with a few smart bites to keep you honest. The kind of small, opinionated room every neighborhood wishes it had.
Order: A glass of low-intervention something with a snacky plate

Downtown · $$$ · No. 139 of 157 overall
The Bridges & Bourbon team built a moody little jewel box in the Cultural District where dessert is the headliner, not the afterthought. The sage olive oil cake and lemon ricotta doughnuts sing; just know the wine-by-the-glass list ran thinner than the branding promised early on. A lovely nightcap stop before the show.
Order: Lemon ricotta doughnuts with a glass of something old-world
