MotorCity Wine - Wine bar in Detroit - 1949 Michigan Ave, USA

Fantastic natural wine spot in Detroit. Predominantly European wine, but very wide range and the staff are super friendly and knowledgable about their stock. Don’t let the looks from the outside put you off, it looks closed, perhaps even slightly abandoned at first look. Even the door with the open sign looks like it’s closed, but go inside and it’s a great spot. Good bar for drinking in, lots of seats and a huge terrace at the back. Would very much recommend this place if you are a natural wine fan

I like to go for Tango dancing on Wed. Nights and I've been there for small music artists events and House music on Sundays. I like that it's small and cozy. I usually eat at home before I go. The charcuterie boards do not entice me at all. I hear there is a food truck, but it's never there during the times of my events. Great selection of wines. They need to invest in upgrading their dance floor. There is a serious slant and now the cheap linoleum floor is ripping up making it very hazardous for dancers.

Amazing space! My partner picked this place and was excited since he heard great things. I, at the same time, was looking at Resident Advisor and saw that a fun event was taking place here, too. We are so happy we went. Amazing vibes, great crowd, chill- and welcoming giving the music tonight was a fun DJ. — love love.

Motor City Wine is a great spot! Wide selection of by-the-glass, and a varied bottle section. They have tastings and live music. The owners are so friendly and knowledgeable!

Absolutely love this beautiful place. Great wine and snacks. And a cognac wine that 🔥

This place is one of my favorite wine bars in the city first and foremost. However, I went in with my partner on 11/9/23. Things seemed great until my interaction with the bartender Anthony. I jokingly told him that my partner was making fun of me for ordering Moscato (I'm a beverage Director and wine nerd btw) in which he responded with "I don't care what you want, just hurry up". I've been in F+B in Detroit for a decade and I've never heard nor would I ever say that to a guest. It was completely inhospitable and unwarranted. This instance doesn't devalue the love I have for mcw, but I can't in good conscience recommend it to my guests and won't be back for a while.

I've been here in the past and the service was excellent, but this time coming through the door it was rudeness. Then letting it go the bartender was rude after the Manger. (Oh and btw) I heard the smart comment "these kids" reffering to me like i was 21, I may look young but im pushing 40. The only thing more sour than the taste in my mouth was the overpriced cheap wine. I know that there are better wine bars around Like Detroit Pur Vin , but I came here because it was a vibe the last time I came. WHAT HAPPENED? It was such a bad experience I left after one cup of wine and told the rest of my party to join me across the street. And as a bar owner I was shocked. IT WOULD TAKE SOMETHING MAJOR FOR ME TO EVER SREP FOOT IN HERE AGAIN. AND TO THINK IVE BEEN RECOMMENDING THIS PLACE TO PEOPLE FOR YEARS A A GOOD SPOT! SMH!

We've gone a few Sundays for the house music, drink prices are reasonable. They have a great patio during the summer
