This place is an amazing little spot in Oakville! Friends and I enjoyed our meals, sharing Starters and the dessert. We met the chef who was very nice and gave us some insight on how she plans the menu. The fancy mixed drinks are very unique and work well with the menu! The menu is seasonal and we had the Winter 2023 menu but we'll be back to try the Spring menu in April!

Do you want a good growth story, here it is! I ordered the lump crab cakes and found them to be pure crab with no fillers, accompanied by the salad featuring an olive citrus dressing and seared tuna. What a beautiful dish. This spot is a gem amongst the homogeneity of the suburbia chain obsession. Your reminder to shop and eat local. We like a good success story. November 2010, Bottle Cellars opened as a small wine shop committed to offering quality and affordable wines. Over time, it expanded its offerings to include cheese, whiskey, and craft beer. As demand grew, a cozy patio emerged, along with the introduction of wines by the glass and simple cheese and charcuterie boards. However, the desire for more from both customers and proprietors led to the birth of Cellar House in 2015—an adjacent wine bar. In 2020, time to grow again but now they have to move to their now home at 5634 Telegraph Road, just a mile from the original spot. Cellar House now offers dinner service, a spacious patio and a lengthy cocktail and wine list! Congrats!

Stopped in for dinner. As at the bar. Excellent service at the bar. Food was delicious. Their menu changes so don’t be surprised if a dish you wanted is not listed ed anymore.

An very extensive range of wines and spirits. The beer selection has selections from a few local micro breweries. The menu has items inspired by what is typically found at bars, but each item is chef prepared and plated well. The menu items can be accented with items such as shrimp and other recommendations found in the menu descriptions. There is outdoor seating available. This place is well attended by locals, and reservations are recommended. The restrooms are very clean. The ladies' room has sented lotions available. The wait staff are very attentive and knowledgeable on the menu items. I like cheeseburgers and their smashburger is very good. The beef is ground in the restaurant and seasoned well. Long sliced pickles blend well with the mustard aioli.

Good vibe. Great food. We sat at the bar and our bartender gave great suggestions on cocktails and food. Feels a little tight inside, but there was a lot of seating outside. We had Hughes’ Forbidden Fruit which I loved, The Norman Hole and I Hope it’s Cheeky cocktails. Started with Baked Goat Cheese and delicious homemade pita chips. Hubby had pork chop and I had Pappardelle. Both were excellent. Would come again.

Cellar House is a fantastic spot with a nice modern farmhouse aesthetic. The place has a clean, contemporary feel with subway tiles on the walls, wooden benches, and steel chairs with backing. The large bar runs the length of the restaurant, featuring about 15 seats, while the dining area has around 20 tables. The staff are friendly, warm, and inviting, always ready to help and provide information. Originally an extension of a wine store, Cellar House has grown into a top-notch dining establishment. Their wine list and cocktails are impressive, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. You can come in jeans or dress up a bit more – they just want you to enjoy the fresh, from-scratch food that speaks for itself. I had the power bowl with ahi tuna, and it was great. The flavors were spot-on, though it was a bit salty for my taste, but that’s just a personal preference. Overall, Cellar House offers a wonderful dining experience in a laid-back yet stylish setting.
