I've been here many times over the years - I still love coming here. Excellent selection of wine. #ContestEntry
What a wonderful discovery in an old world style cavern, a wine bar with a delightful host, enjoyable local guests and delicious charcuterie.
Atmospheric and moody, love the seating arrangement. Good selection of wine. Owner was very amicable, he even speaks french! Free peanuts are always welcomed.
Very quiet unusual setting from what I'm used to but nice. The hostess knew her wine. The girls loved the marble table. You have to go and check this one out
Excellent wine bar, loved the froie gras. Nice wine selection. Friendly staff!
A beautiful intimate wine bar in a cellar type setting. So romantic! We had an incredible bottle of red and 3 cheeses. We felt the prices were very reasonable. See pics
Peter is such a great host. The wines are great and the bar is so beautiful and aesthetically pleasing. Drop by and ask for recommendations, the owner will be more than happy to offer his favourites and maybe a few stories with it. Cheers.
Very quaint location. Small, close feel to it. It definitely has a maritime look, with the rustic boarding and dim lighting. Good selection of red wines. Very great little spot, however the service is either great or mediocre. Would recommend for sure!
Love this cozy, friendly place!
Absolutely a wonderful Gem in the Port City. Highly recomend.
Excellent experience. Owner is extremely knowledgeable
This is an amazing. experience and happy we found it. The owner and patrons were awesome and very knowledgeable. We will be back !
Super nice owner Cool atmosphere Interesting choice of wine
Our first visit to Wine Bar while visiting SJ with friends and thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance the Wine and Julie our server was awesome
Exactly what you want from a wine bar...cosy atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable owner and staff, carefully chosen tasty wines.
Loved it
Rude!! Went to go in at 9.30pm (online said it was open until 12am) and as we walked in we were screamed at by the bartender telling us they were closed. Will NEVER go back to this business. Myself, as someone who is a small business owner in this city, I will make sure I tell everyone about my experience. Not welcoming and terribly rude.
Go for the punz alone! The interior space is cozy and delightful, the selection of wines excellent, and the service very well-informed and helpful. The location is also excellent, near to other establishments in downtown Saint John.
Peter is an ambassador of the town as tasty wines and cheeses. Thank s for welcoming us.
Great place to have a chat and enjoy a great wine selection
Good selection of wine, cozy atmosphere. Great spot even for amateur connoisseurs
Great little vine bar very frendly
Great atmosphere and fantastic wine selection
What a great little place. Highly recommend a stop in for a glass ;)
Knowledgeable information about the various wines that are available there. Great atmosphere.
Beautiful hang out
Hidden gem. Great atmosphere and knowledgeable staff. Good times
Great place to wine and dine!
Nice ambiance and good selection
I love this place!! It is so cute and cozy. A great spot for a girls night, date night, after work drinks or to catch up with friends. Feel free to kick off your shoes, bring a blanket, cozy up and drink some wine! I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because sometimes you dont know if you should go up and get drinks or wait because the service can be very slow. Also, the wine selection doesnt include enough local/east coast selections as someone who is a huge supporter of local wine. The selection also doesnt change that often (some selections seem to always be there and could be subed out or the list could be added to). There are also no games or entertainment which is too bad, you could bring your own but they could at least have a couple packs of cards or something.
One of the most unique and personalized wine bar experiences I ve ever had.
Fantastic selection, price point and ambiance. Expect no TV screens here. My advice to those who havent tried this gem yet - shut your cell phone / screens off. And enjoy the place. Socialize a bit and get back to basics.
It was fantastic other than the group of ladies sharing way too much personal information very loudly.
Amazing service and the owner was very very helpful and knowledgeable when it came to choosing a wine. I will definitely go back here
Coolest bar in town.
Happiness is a cozy wine bar in the heart of uptown St. John. There are always at least 10 bottles or white and 10 bottles of red wine from which to choose. Mat is knowledgeable and more than happy to work with you to find your right wine or construct the perfect wine flight. Seating is plentiful and accommodating. Pricing is reasonable ($9-12 for a glass). The only downside is that no side dishes are available (peanuts may be available). Suitable for a pre or post dinner drink or a get together with friends.
Great atmosphere. Great wine selection
Cozy and with good music selection, really enjoyed having some glasses of wine while having a good chat with my husband.
Best place for wine in Saint John by far!
The best damn wine bar in the province. Period.
Great spot
Great wine
Friendly & Knowledgeable Owner...
A fantastic little hang full of character and culture. The best part is the owner Peter. He is kind, cultured, knowledgeable, and compassionate. You know what it means to be a human when you leave having met such a wonderful person and enjoyed great atmosphere and wines...the wines are amazing and there is a great selection. Get a flight and share a zip!
Good wine, good food, good ambience, arrive too slow due to understaffing the place - one person to cover over 20 patrons on a Friday night.
A quaint place with organic wine and different tapas. A MUST do if you like something more unique.
Fantastic conversational atmosphere.
great wine selection. space is way to small and the owner takes reservations but never sees it through with his staff. feels more like you are drinking in your friends parents basement bar than a serious establishment.
Great little wine bar in the heart of a happening part of the city. Reasonable prices and a good selection on wines by the glass. Also a rather large selection of wines by the bottle in a wide range of prices.
Cozy intimate environment to enjoy quality wine with friends. Get a cheese tray too for a tasty snack! The bartender is extremely helpful in assisting with interpreting the taste of the wines and selecting wines to try.
A wonderful wine experience in a hip, relaxing space. The selection of wines is unique and offers some real gems.
happinez is Saint Johns best kept secret. A little go-to place for gathering with friends, having an after work drink, a before dinner drink, or an after dinner drink. Plenty of wine by the glass, and a yummy selection of cold beer too!! See you there.
Unique, wonderful experience every time! #livelifeuptown
