Daytona Beach

Vine Bistro

Ormond Beach · Daytona Beach · Bistro

The Wild Card

Vine Bistro has the bones of a great neighborhood wine spot — a relaxed, romantic room, food that's built for sharing and sipping, and a reputation that keeps locals coming back. We'd love to give you a tighter breakdown of the list, but our sourcing came up short on specifics. Worth a visit in person: go for the charcuterie, ask what's pouring by the glass, and report back.

Rogue Wave Wine Bar & Restaurant

· Daytona Beach · Wine Bar / Restaurant

The Reliable

Rogue Wave is a small, honest list with a surprising BC backbone that earns it more credit than the bottle count suggests. If you're in Daytona and want wine without drama or sticker shock, this is your spot.

SoNapa Grille

Daytona Beach Shores · Daytona Beach · Wine-focused California-leaning grille

The Wild Card

SoNapa Grille is a genuine wild card — a wine-focused concept in a market that didn't ask for one, and that's exactly why it's worth your attention. Get in early, see if the list earns the concept, and hope the glass pours are priced like they want repeat customers.

Wine Not? at The Trails

· Daytona Beach · Wine Bar

The Reliable

Wine Not? isn't trying to be a destination wine bar — it's trying to be your relaxed neighborhood pour, and it pulls that off without overcomplicating things. If you live nearby, this is a perfectly decent spot to work through a few glasses; just don't show up expecting to geek out.

The Garlic

· Daytona Beach · Italian

The Reliable

The Garlic is punching above its weight class for a Daytona Beach Italian spot — 105 labels and 33 by-the-glass options is real effort, and the pricing is mostly honest. It's not a wine destination, but it's absolutely the right place to drink well if you're already there for pasta.

35 Bistro & Wine Bar

· Daytona Beach · Wine Bar / Small Plates

The Wild Card

35 Bistro is doing something genuinely unexpected in Daytona Beach, and the wine program — while not without blind spots — backs up the room's ambition. Send a friend here if they think Daytona can't do grown-up dinner. They'll owe you one.

Ocean Deck

· Daytona Beach · Seafood / Casual Oceanfront

The Lazy List

Ocean Deck is a great spot to watch the sun go down with a cold beer. If you're coming for the wine, come somewhere else.

Norwoods Eatery & Bar

· Daytona Beach · American / Wine Bar

The Reliable

Norwoods is doing more with wine than most Florida beach bars dare to try — 175 labels and 33 glass pours is a real commitment. The markups get aggressive at the top end, but there's genuine value if you know where to look.

Chart House Daytona

Marina Point · Daytona Beach · Seafood

The Reliable

Chart House Daytona isn't a wine destination, but it's not pretending to be one either. Fair prices, approachable pours, and a marina view that does half the work — send your friends here knowing they won't be underwhelmed or overcharged.

Hyde Park Prime

Beachside Entertainment Zone · Daytona Beach · Steakhouse

The Reliable

Hyde Park Prime is a reliable, if predictable, steakhouse wine experience — the California heavyweights are all present, the glass pour program is functional, and it'll make your celebration dinner feel appropriately special. Just don't come here looking for discovery; come here knowing what you already like and order confidently.

P.F. Chang's (Daytona International Speedway)

Speedway Retail · Daytona Beach · Asian Chain

The Reliable

Skip this place on any day that isn't Wednesday, when half-price bottles make a mediocre list into a legitimately decent deal — especially if you're ordering around the Rieslings. It's a chain, it drinks like one, but the Wednesday program earns it a pass.

Cast & Crew Tide-to-Table

Boardwalk/Oceanfront · Daytona Beach · Seafood

The Reliable

Cast & Crew isn't a wine destination, but it's got just enough going on to reward anyone paying attention — especially if you're ordering the Vouvray with oysters at happy hour. Skip the Champagne, grab a bar seat, and keep your expectations calibrated to the beach you're sitting next to.

Azure Oceanfront Restaurant

Resort Row · Daytona Beach · Oceanfront American

The Lazy List

Azure is here to serve hotel guests a familiar glass of wine with a spectacular backdrop, and it succeeds at exactly that low bar. Come for the ocean, order by the glass, and don't expect the wine list to surprise you.

Hyde Park Prime Steakhouse

Beachside/Ocean Walk · Daytona Beach · Upscale Steakhouse

The Reliable

Hyde Park Prime Daytona is a dependable, well-run wine program in a room that knows what it wants to be — and mostly delivers. Markups will sting, but the sommelier, the depth, and the oceanfront setting make it the right call when the occasion calls for a serious bottle and a serious steak.

Mama Foo Foo Daytona

Downtown Waterfront · Daytona Beach · Contemporary Global

The Wild Card

Mama Foo Foo is a cocktail bar that happens to have a wine list worth reading — and in Daytona Beach, that alone makes it a Wild Card worth pulling. Go in expecting a nightlife spot, and let the Billecart-Salmon magnum surprise you.

Chart House

Intracoastal Waterway · Daytona Beach · Seafood and Steaks

The Reliable

Chart House is a chain doing chain wine things, but the pricing is fair and the list covers enough ground to find something worth drinking. Come for the intracoastal view, order the El Coto if you want to feel smarter than the menu, and keep your expectations appropriately calibrated.

P.F. Chang's (ISB Corridor)

ISB Corridor · Daytona Beach · Asian

The Reliable

P.F. Chang's ISB Corridor isn't a wine destination, but it's not an embarrassment either — especially on Monday when half-price bottles make The Prisoner or Stags' Leap an actual value play. Come for the lettuce wraps, drink the Riesling, and know what you're walking into.

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse

ISB Retail Corridor · Daytona Beach · Casual American

The Lazy List

BJ's is a perfectly fine place to drink craft beer — and we mean that sincerely. But the wine list is a placeholder, not a program, and the Ruffino Prosecco markup alone tells you everything you need to know about how seriously this kitchen takes the category. Come for the Pizookie, come for the beer, leave the wine glass empty.

Azure at The Shores Resort & Spa

Daytona Beach Shores · Daytona Beach · Coastal American

The Lazy List

Azure is a place you go for the view and the seafood, not the wine list. If drinking well matters to your evening, order a cocktail or bring a bottle and pay the corkage.

The Cellar

Historic Magnolia Avenue · Daytona Beach · Italian

The Wild Card

The Cellar is one of Florida's most surprising wine lists — serious depth, marquee producers, and a genuine commitment to Italian and classic French selections that punches way above Daytona's weight class. Markup is aggressive across the board, but if you navigate toward the mid-tier Italian bottles, you'll drink very well.

Chart House (Marina Point)

Marina Point Waterfront · Daytona Beach · Seafood

The Reliable

Chart House Daytona Beach is a Reliable stop — the wine won't blow your mind, but it won't embarrass you either, and $8–$10 pours with a marina sunset is a deal worth taking. Order the El Coto, grab a window seat, and let the view do the heavy lifting.

Mama Foo Foo

Downtown/Waterfront Basin Street · Daytona Beach · Upscale Gastropub / Global Shareable Plates

The Wild Card

Mama Foo Foo is carrying wines that have no business being this good for a waterfront bar in Daytona Beach, and that earns it a legitimate Wild Card. The markup keeps it from being a destination wine list, but if you're eating here anyway, skip the cocktail for once and dig into what's on that wine menu.

P.F. Chang's Daytona Beach

International Speedway Blvd Corridor · Daytona Beach · Asian Bistro

The Lazy List

If it's Wednesday and you want cheap wine with your Lettuce Wraps, P.F. Chang's will get the job done — but there's no reason to come here for the wine program on any other night of the week. Order a cocktail and move on.

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse Daytona Beach

Shopping District · Daytona Beach · American Brewhouse

The Lazy List

BJ's Daytona Beach is a beer restaurant with a wine list that exists because it has to. Come for the Pizookie, come for the craft beer, and if you're drinking wine, come on a Monday — Half Price Wine Night is the only real reason to engage with this list.

Blue Flame

Daytona International Speedway Area · Daytona Beach · New American

The Wild Card

Blue Flame is a legitimately surprising wine program wearing a racetrack disguise — not perfect, and hotel markups are real, but the ambition is there and the selection earns respect. If you're sleeping at The Daytona or just found yourself here, ignore the moonshine menu and go straight to the wine list.

Chart House Daytona Beach

Marina Point · Daytona Beach · Seafood Steakhouse

The Reliable

Chart House Daytona Beach is a reliable corporate wine experience — fair prices, familiar names, nothing broken, nothing remarkable. Come for the water views and the prime rib; drink the El Coto and let the sunset do the rest.

The Cellar Restaurant

Historic District · Daytona Beach · Fine Dining Italian

The Wild Card

The Cellar is a genuine Wild Card — a fine-dining Italian spot in a Florida tourist town hiding one of the more interesting dessert and fortified wine lists in the region. Come for the Vin Santo and the 1982 PX, manage your expectations on the dry wine side, and don't order the Napa Merlot.

Cast & Crew

Daytona Beach · Daytona Beach · American

The Reliable

Cast & Crew isn't reinventing the wine list, but they're doing the fundamentals right — fair prices, recognizable producers, a solid by-the-glass lineup, and a Wine Spectator nod to back it up. Send a friend here and they won't come back disappointed.
