Wine, wine, and wine 🍷
This is the place for the true wine connoisseur. A place to bring a date and relax while lounging on a comfy chair, or walking around looking at their fine book collection.
If you’re the type of person who’s looking to grab a legitimate bottle you’re not likely to find anywhere else in the city (And BURBS of course) you have found your new home.
I’ve only seen wine collections like this at a few other spots around the city Motor City Wine, Bar Chenin, and Ladder 4
I won’t lie to you though, it’s not cheap but life’s too short to drink cheap wine anyway.
For the restrooms they have (2) and they are both unisex.
They were very clean and accessible. They both were spacious and private. They even included feminine products as well, which is always a nice extra touch.
I will certainly be back.

Vesper is a bookshop and wine bar tucked into a restored early-1900s bank building in Core City. Reviewers love the curated wine selection, cookbook collection, and cozy, relaxing atmosphere for a date or a slow evening.
