Overview
Etta Wine Bar, nestled in the vibrant Brunswick East, is the quintessential neighborhood spot, seamlessly blending sophistication with a welcoming ambiance. Once a fish-and-chip shop, Etta retains elements of its past with stone floors and hardwood floorboards, juxtaposed with modern touches like lavish Australian marble benches and a playful forest mural by local artist Rob Bowers. The bar and the 80-seat dining room are separated by an open kitchen, creating a dynamic space where patrons can enjoy both the culinary and vinous delights.
Wine is at the heart of the Etta experience, with a 250-bottle list that offers a roving snapshot of the world’s best growing regions. From textural whites from Austria to French varietals from Burgundy, and a robust selection of small-scale Victorian winemakers, Etta’s wine list caters to every palate. The selection is complemented by a thoughtful, albeit less extensive, sake offering with hard-to-find drops from Japan, ensuring a unique experience for all guests.
Etta’s food menu is equally impressive, featuring modern bistro-style dishes that are both inventive and accessible. The relaxed, unpretentious setting makes it the perfect spot for both casual drinks and memorable dining experiences. Patrons can expect something new and exciting with every visit, whether it’s the wine or the food, ensuring that Etta remains a beloved fixture in the community.
Whether you’re looking for a place to unwind with a glass of wine, explore new culinary delights, or enjoy a thoughtful sake selection, Etta Wine Bar offers an unparalleled experience that leaves a lasting impression. It’s the sort of place everyone wants in their ‘hood – not trying too hard, open to all, with a superlative wine list and cuisine that lingers in your memory.
