On The Vine - Bakersfield

We absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is wonderfully cozy, and Nicole is the best bartender we've ever had! She's incredibly funny and always so helpful!

I recently dined at On the Vine with friends, and we had a wonderful experience. The owner was incredibly friendly, and we enjoyed a bottle of wine along with the laundry board. The atmosphere is laid-back, making it a perfect spot for conversation. There's a bar area with TVs if you want to catch a game. I will definitely return, whether for a girls' night out or a date night!

We absolutely adore this restaurant! It's wonderful to simply tell Karen what we're craving, and she always makes the perfect suggestion. Everything she recommends is fantastic. I also appreciate that you can chat with new people who unexpectedly become friends or just sit back and relax while catching up on texts, emails, and social media.

Karen Bennett is the owner. She is a highly educated resident wine expert and a fun down to earth Gal! Karen is a Sommelier, she worked at The Cellar for years and was the Wine Buyer for Cafe Med. The Theme for this Ladies wine tasting event was Red, White Blue. It was a summer picnic type of atmosphere. Upon checking in we received A glass of Sparkling Blanc de Rose' by Blanc de Bleu. The bubbles were so refreshing on a warm Bakersfield evening. We were served Two still French Rose's, Vin de Provence AIX from Provence and Cape Bleue Rose' by Jean Luv Colombo of France. Next was a Spanish white wine Abarino by Lagan D Cervera. Then going back to South of France to slip into something red with Syrah Grenache by Cote' Mas. We finished with a Red Blend of Monastrel, Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah by Juan Gil. The wines were delicious!What a fun evening was had by all! On the Vine has a very casual and welcoming ambiance. They serve wine, beer and snacks. They also have Taco Tuesday's. Most importantly No snobs allowed! I love this place!

This place is a little hidden gem. I've been here a few times. All the employees very polite and knowledgeable. Sometimes the owners are floating around and take the time to greet customers and accommodate their needs. It's a very pleasant low key environment. I highly recommend trying it. Tons of wine options and beers. They also have cigars for the front patio.
