Bar review – Uva Wine Bar
The only thing I would fault Uva Wine Bar with would be that they don’t have hors d’oeuvres. The place is chic (a tad small for a Tweetup but totally fine for a decent glass of wine and/or a drink), the staff are really on the ball, friendly and sweet, and the drinks are good. Fairly decently priced (within what I’d expect in Yaletown, $ 9 for a martini).

Located where it used to be The Dufferin (a queer-friendly bar that was highly valued by the community but ended up being gentrified), Uva is a classic European wine bar. The staff is really friendly and very prompt and attentive. And they know their drinks. One of the managers/owners mentioned that they would get some food (and they are right – they are a wine bar, so really they’re not supposed to have FOOD and drinks, it’s more like they got DRINKS and some food. Basically, the concept is a wine bar (like Europe, you know?)

This is a really interesting picture. Three young women (two of them in party dress), all photographic each other to remember or prove or commemorate that they were there.

Yeah… but they’re very beautiful too, don’tcha think?
