Nectar Wine Bar – Harlem Travel Guide – iPhone and iPad App

Great wines, lite meals, live entertainment

Nectar, the first wine bar in Harlem, was created with a downtown look and sensibility in mind for an uptown clientele who have been craving a good wine bar. It has been crowded since it opened in April of 2008, offering a nice cross-section of wines from a forty-selection list, including eleven champagne and sparkling wines from its sister shop, Harlem Vintage, located next door. A minimal menu of fine cheeses, charcuterie, hummus, paninis, and El Ray Venezuelan chocolates to complement the sweeter wines accent the wines rather than distract from them. The soothing modern design of a white sleek bar, asymmetrical sailcloth panels covering the walls and ceilings, a gray concrete floor, and a burgundy-toned rear wall where wine is stored horizontally, makes this bar look like no other in Harlem. The average cost of a glass of wine is $10. Live jazz on Mondays.
Cuisine: Wine Bar, Cheeses, Hummus, Charcuterie
Sales & Deals: “Show us the App…Present App, Order a Glass, and Get the Second Glass on Us!” (Second glass of equal or lesser value. Excludes beer and bottles of wine.) 12/31/12.
If you enjoyed that drink at Nectar Wine Bar, then go next door to Harlem Vintage, the areas first boutique wine shop a take a bottle home with you. They have over 300 different labels from wine regions all over the world. In the triangle you will find a the Harriet Tubman by African American artist Alison Saar, the only statue of an African American women in New York City.
