A Friendly Neighborhood Wine Bar
Somm Time is the ultimate friendly neighborhood wine bar. It prides itself on being an inclusive space—for both its patrons as well as the wine. This thoughtfully curated list offers a range of price points, ensuring there’s something for every budget.
A Global Selection of Wine
While you’ll find some great wine selections from the usual hotspots like California, Spain, Italy, and France, Somm Time always has some special bottles to showcase up-and-coming, lesser-known wine regions. Previous and current selections have included locales such as Morocco, Macedonia, and Georgia (the country, not the state, also often referred to as “the birthplace of wine”). There are also lots of fun options to try, from skin contact (a.k.a. orange wines) to chilled reds and even a beer of the day.
A Fun and Inclusive Atmosphere
Upbeat music and a friendly buzz make it a great spot for socializing with friends, to unwind after work, enjoy a casual date night, or gather for a fun and informative wine tasting event. The bar regularly hosts educational events and workshops led by their knowledgeable staff and sommeliers.
Seating and Comfort
There’s no shortage of seating here with plenty of bar seating inside, along with outdoor street seating on Broome Street. It’s a good place to drop in whenever you want—especially when so many other bars in the neighborhood get crowded easily and/or always require reservations.
Conclusion
Somm Time is a haven for wine lovers and anyone looking for a friendly, inclusive atmosphere. With its global selection of wine, fun and informative events, and comfortable seating, it’s the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a drink with friends or on your own.
