This 378-square-foot gem near Piedmont Park transforms from a morning coffee bar (Intelligentsia partnership) into an evening wine bar with an emphasis on natural and affordable European wines. Owner Jordan Chambers curates a chalkboard list of Spanish, French, and Italian wines that changes regularly. Wines by the glass are affordable, and the selection rewards repeat visits because the list is never the same twice.

Tinned fish and Euro-inspired small bites (white anchovies with lemon and olive oil, focaccia sandwiches) make perfect pairing partners. The space is tiny and charming, with a European cafe vibe that encourages lingering. They host pop-up sushi nights on Sundays and Mondays. The whole experience feels like a secret you stumbled upon in a Midtown side street.

A 378-square-foot coffee-to-wine bar with a rotating chalkboard of natural European wines is the smallest and most personal wine program in Atlanta. The size forces curation. Every bottle on that chalkboard earned its place.
