Milly's Wine Bar & Bistro · Mill District
Milly's pairs a deep bottle list and changing by the glass selections with a compact bistro menu. The Washington Avenue room works for a tasting flight, dinner, or a bottle shared at the bar. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine's Minneapolis wine tour visits Milly's directly and records its Mill District address.
Bar Brava · Near North
Bar Brava keeps natural and low intervention wines at the center of a small North Minneapolis room. Rotating kitchen residencies change the food, but the wine bar identity and Wednesday through Saturday service remain consistent. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine's Minneapolis wine tour names Bar Brava and discusses its place in the local scene.
Small Hours · Bottineau
Small Hours is an intimate Northeast wine bar with a carefully edited cellar, warm service, and small plates designed around a bottle. The restrained room makes conversation as important as the list. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine included Small Hours in its 2025 new restaurant coverage after its neighborhood opening.
Maison Margaux · North Loop
Maison Margaux supports its French restaurant with a cellar level wine bar and a broad list suited to both dinner and a late glass. The historic North Loop building offers several distinct rooms without losing focus on French bottles and hospitality. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine includes Maison Margaux in its Minneapolis wine tour.
