A wine night in Morningside Heights

A glass to start, a table around the corner.

3 spots · Jump to the list

A wine bar is the low-pressure date: stay for one glass or four, and let the staff steer you if neither of you knows the list. Most pour a good range by the glass and serve small plates, so a wine bar works as the first stop before dinner or as the whole evening.

This guide ranks 3 wine bars in Morningside Heights. Editors' picks come first, then the rest by rating, and the plans below build a whole evening around the best of them.
