Booked 1 time today
Rumours Wine Bar was brought to life from a vision that began back in 2019 in our living room. Dana had recently resigned from her Wine Sales position and wasn’t sure what she wanted to do next. She had always dreamed of opening her own Wine bar so we created our logo, our name, and our brand and simply followed our heart. We opened as a retail store in January 2020 and pivoted when the Pandemic started by creating an online store and offering curbside pick-up and delivery. In September 2020, we passed our final inspections and received our beer and wine license for “on-premise” consumption as well as a restaurant license. We have not slowed down since. We have won numerous awards from our local community including 2022 and 2023 "Best Local Cheers Bar." Our mission at Rumours Wine Bar is to simply embrace intellectual stimulation linked to wine in a relaxed and friendly environment.

I had the thai pasta and it was also very goo. We ended with the chocolate pecan pue which was excellent. Service from Alexa was 5 star.

    My husband and I love this restaurant. The food has been fantastic. The menu is not overwhelming and has a variety of wonderful dishes. The staff is fantastic as well as very knowledgeable about the dishes. They do offer special dishes not on the menu and the specials are tops.

    Valentine’s Day dinner special menu. Service was fantastic and food amazing. At first I questioned the choices for the dinner but why? The choices were perfect. I had Leg o Lamb and my wife had Duck. I don’t remember her ever ordering duck but she loved it. Both appetizers were great as well. Great wine selection and great cup of cappuccino. The food was more than plentiful! This is our go to,place to eat in the area. Always top notch. The chef is an artist. Now this place is expensive but you get what you pay for and I don’t mind paying for great food. I can’t wait to return.

    Cody was hands on. Detailed information for our many questions. I can be a pain. lol. Cheif did a fine job for our special diet needs. Took a friend there for the first time. She was very pleased. Two of us got the lobster tail. I got the glazed grouper/shrimp. Very moist. Ended with the key lime pie which is unique to the restaurant and an Expresso Martini. Oh and thank you for allowing us to push our reservations back a few hours.

    Wine Club tasting was great. Pairings of food with wines were spot on. New owners are keeping the vibe that Rumours is known for.
