In September, I absolutely wanted to return to Paris with a bottle of 'English' white from Kent... I found it in this little wine shop, with the wise advice of the owner. Thank you very much, I was finally able to taste this wine after a few weeks in the cellar. Excellent Chardonnay, round in the mouth and full of flavors and fruit.

I think that it was Mary Poppins who said: Sometimes a person, through no fault of their own, can?t see past the end of his nose.? Over the years, I must have walked past this treasure trove of wine, without consciously noticing the venue. When I did become aware, I was always in the commuter rush to and from Tower Gateway. Today, I made time for a visit and am so pleased I did. Greated by the highly knowledgeable Peter, I immersed myself in the eclectic range of wines on display. So tempted was I that I stayed on for a lunchtime selection of farmhouse cheeses ? and charcuterie, perfectly complemented by a crisp and refreshing Swiss white. Whilst the price of wines ranges from the easily accessible to the premium, the cheese and charcuterie boards are particularly good value, especially for the City. Based in an atmospheric cellar, this is undoubtedly a wine lover's paradise and not to be missed, which of course makes me wonder why it took me so long to discover. Avail yourself of this unique opportunity and enjoy!

We have been to The Wine Library, formerly Reynier?s, many times in the last 40 years or so. The wine remains, as ever, fantastic value for great wines but the food is not as it was. It used to be a self service buffet which was just amazing. I understand that this must be too expensive now but the platters they do are just not up to the standard of platters we have eaten elsewhere. Definitely they need to put more bread out and a more generous helping of cheese would be good.

Excellent selection of wines available to drink in or take away. Lunch buffet provides a magnificent cheese, meat, pate and rilittes plate. Well worth a visit.

They have wine to go, wine by the bottle and wine but the glass. The proprietor was very knowledgeable and was happy to show us around to help us pick out a wine. I would definitely suggest you stop by if you are at all into wine.

Fabulous little hidden gem in the heart of London! Located near the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. The staff was friendly and attentive. I am not a wine-o but they did a great job of walking my husband and I through some of their wines by the glass. We had four excellent glasses and the wine library platter was a great assortment of cheeses, meats, breads, and so on. I highly recommend stopping in for an afternoon to find a wine that you may never have tried before.

Called in for quick drink for a bit of respite from the chaos of the underground on a busy Saturday afternoon. Despite being dressed for a Gun's N' Roses concert that evening, and being in a rather posh looking wine bar, the owner was friendly, welcoming and charming. We shared a beautiful glass of wine in lovely, peaceful surroundings. For a couple of Northerners lost in the chaos of London this was a lovely little oasis of calm. The owners a gent and not being particular wine connoisseurs we were able to explain our tastes and he recommended a glass of which was, for me, one of the nicest wines I've ever had. Loved this place. Manners cost nothing and in a city that lacks it so often (sorry, but head north and you'll find we take our manners a bit more seriously!) this lovely little bar made us feel right at home. Loved it!
