Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We attended a quiz night and all enjoyed ourselves, the staff are all very friendly and helpful, The food was very good and I will visit again in the near future. Only downside is that they do not serve draught bitter at the upstairs bar.

I hosted my fiancé's 40th birthday party at City Wine Bar, and it was an incredible experience! The staff was remarkably helpful, and the bartender did an excellent job. The venue was completed by the vibrant atmosphere created by everyone who attended. Without a doubt,...I'll be choosing City Wine Bar again for future events. Cheers to a fantastic celebration venue!More

Amazing from start to finish. Guy who dealt with us pulled out all the stops, nothing too much trouble. Should have got his name, had a short beard. Food outstanding and reasonably priced. Spotless clean, which is so important to us. Going to make a...booking for this weekend.More

Visited here after seeing the amazing reviews, and I have to say we were not disappointed! The atmosphere was welcoming, friendly, and vibrant. The decor was homely and just beautifully classy in its rustic simplicity. The staff were nothing but helpful and friendly. The food...was just faultless. We tried a variety of dishes and every single one was presented beautifully with flavourful freshly cooked food! Last but not least you must try their signature cocktails!! We need more independent restaurants/wine bars like this! A perfect example of how it’s done. Although we aren’t local when we return to Liverpool we will be coming here! Thank you so much for making our evening amazing!More

My wife bought a voucher as a Christmas present. Jordan was our host and it was an excellent experience. A choice of 5 wines explained with detail and humour. The charchouterie was excellent and fully matched the choice of wines. But special mention to Jordan...who was an excellent host. Great job 👏 We will definitely be back with the familyMore

Been here a few times over last couple of months. They serve tasty food. I had the club sandwich and chips. Freshly prepared food but you don't sit around for too long getting it. Staff friendlt and attentive.
