The perfect place to start–or end–your evening out on the town.

Carnegie Cellars Wine Bar + Kitchen creates a wine bar and restaurant experience where everyone can enjoy the pleasures of life in a relaxed and inspiring environment in one of the most energetic and diverse neighborhoods of Rochester. Named “Best Wine Bar” by City Magazine, it is a place where you can share a glass of wine or a cappuccino with friends both new and old, and taste some delicious entrees and tapas in the heart of Rochester’s Neighborhood of the Arts. Elegant and sophisticated, yet as comfortable as home.

Visit us for wine tastings, happy hour, dinner, or a cozy nightcap. Enjoy everything the NOTA neighborhood has to offer with Rochester staples like Good Luck, Three Heads Brewing, Lento, Rohrbach Brewing, the Rochester Public Market, and so much more.

We offer a large, diverse selection of hand-selected wines from around the world, as well as local favorites from the Niagara region and the Finger Lakes. From dry, sweet, red, white, rose, dessert wine, and port to spirits, craft beer, cappuccino and espresso…we have something for everyone. Carnegie Cellars serves an ever-changing curated menu of chef-inspired entrees and tapas that will pair perfectly with your beverage selection.
