Uptown Wine Merchant

Used to visit uptown when we lived nearby, Ben is a legend and the selections are great. Highly recommended.

One of the few places I’ve found that have natural wine options. And know their wine. Great people working there, very friendly and helpful even while extremely busy. I appreciate you Uptown Wine Merchant!

Ben is the best! Thank you Ben for an amazing experience always.

Excellent customer service. Great bottle selection and glass drinking or you can buy a bottle and go home.

Absolutely love this place. The owner, Ben, is always really friendly and knowledgeable. And carries beers that I haven't found anywhere else.

It's a great joint! Highly recommend

Ben, Nathan, and Nicole have taken such excellent care of my fiancé and I everytime we visit. I'm very happy they added more seating, because while I was happy that they were so popular, it was sometimes frustrating to be standing room when you're trying to enjoy excellent wine on a Friday night.

They have an EXCELLENT selection and variety of wine, from Old World staples like Italian, Spanish and French to an excellently curated New World selection that puts a spotlight on our own local wineries (they have wines from the old vineyard off the I-215 and the few I've had are DELICIOUS).

If you're looking for a relaxed atmosphere to just be adventurous and try new wines, then I highly recommend this place.

Finally went here. Glad we did. Ben is awesome. Knows his beer and wine and has great suggestions. Fantastic selection of wine and hard to find craft beer. Took some friends and they loved it. Prices are reasonable. Give them a try, you'll be glad you went.cheers

Always a great experience. Ben, the owner, makes you feel like family. Great vibe to enjoy a beer or glass of wine. The beer selection is great if you're looking for harder to East Caost brewery.

One of my favorite local spots. The ambiance is just lovely. Ben is so sweet & helpful. You won’t find a better tasting price anywhere else, and the really have some great selections of wine. They also have an extensive beer selection, which you can buy by the can or create your own pack. There’s really something for everyone here.

Love this place! Beautiful selection of wines and some really fun beers. Great indoor and outdoor seating right on the blvd. Ben is knowledgeable and welcoming. A new favorite date night spot.

Our first time there last night and it was a great experience. Ben was very helpful picking out a couple wine options for us and letting us try samples before we decided. We will definitely be going back.

Great spot. While you have a glass of wine or a cool beer try the restaurant next door. They deliver to Uptown which makes the perfect combination. Of course the owner of Uptown Ben is someone you should meet.

Ben is a fantastic owner and proprietor. This is THE spot for the best wine and craft beer in all of Yucaipa. Uptown Wine has quickly become my favorite haunt in town. Be sure to check out the wine club membership and his excellent selection of craft IPAs from breweries like Fat Orange Cat, Decadent and more. 11/10 will continue to return.

Good wine, unique tasting model (3 2 oz pours per tasting, 6 wines available from the wine store stock). Wednesday and Thursday from 3-5 "Happy hour" -- $5 per tasting. 10% off if you buy a bottle of a wine you tasted. Ben is a friendly, knowledgeable owner. Always a great experience.

Ben is amazingly knowledgeable, hyper personable, and wildly ethical in his dealings and upfront with passion for wine. Come with an open mind and you will enjoy yourself with a new favorite wine.

I had a wonderful glass of wine and enjoyed some great conversation. It was a quick visit but I loved the atmosphere, look and feel of this place. Ben was very helpful! Definitely going to visiting again!

The selection of wine and beer is outstanding and there are always new things to try. I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for wines for special events, or just looking to have a drink after a long day. The place is always exceptionally clean inside and out.

Ben is the best. He really knows wine and he easily matches your tastes to his inventory, which is great. Love going to Uptown and talking to Ben!

Awesome 👍 great wine tasting. Ben is very informative on the wine. Very relaxing and you can order pizza nextdoor and they deliver it to you at Uptown. Great company . The people their are awesome 👍 Try it you'll like it 😊

Just stopped here for the happy hour with 5 others from my meetup group. We had a great experience, enjoy the wine and meeting the owner. Looking forward to many future visits!
