What a real gem, hidden away underground in the heart of Preston with a vast selection of tasty wines for every discerning palette. Oh and the Cheeseboards……..awesome.

Beyond expectations as always, Dougie the manager/owner, also caters to non wine lovers with rums/whiskies and has a selection of sweet wines unlike any bar nearby. There is also at least 4-5 pages of wine on double sided a4 pages, plus the cheese and the candle- lit ambiance making it a lovely place overall

What an amazing little bar. Was the first time trying it for our anniversary, and we weren’t disappointed. A very romantic and cosy place, fantastic service. Absolutely gorgeous food. Amazing selection of wines. You don’t feel like you’re on the middle of Preston city centre, feels more like the wine bars you find abroad. We will definitely be going again soon

Underground bar with a great selection of wines and spirits, superb cheeses and deli boards and eclectic music. All the staff are superb - love it !!

Great experience at Winedown again. The wine list is enormous, excellent for those who know their wines, but can be daunting for the average person. Luckily they all have a brief description of their taste and where they are from.
Wine ranges from cheap to very expensive, luckily there is a lot of bottles in an excellent price range and cheaper than the nearby competition.
The service is great, the staff running the place know so much about the wine, meats and cheeses and are happy to help with any questions or requests.
The atmosphere is very dark but there are plenty of candles around, your eyes do adjust but it can be hard to read the menu without a light on hand.
I recommend visiting this place if you are looking for a moody atmosphere with good wine and cheese amongst good company.

This is a great find in Preston. Doesn’t look much from outside but once you go down stairs into the bar area it’s fabulous. Lovely wine and food at reasonable price. Definitely recommend.

This is an absolute gem of a place!! Cheese and meat boards were excellent, best we've had in the UK.
The wine list is amazing too, with a range of choice at sensible prices that's simply unmatched in Preston (red wine list has 5 pages of wines between 23 and 35, and even more choice above this price point)
Atmosphere was chilled out and Dougie and the crew gave us a lovely warm welcome, even though it was our first visit.
We will certainly be back soon :)

One of Preston's hidden gems. With its candles and twinkly lights, this place transports you and feels like you could be in a trendy wine bar on Las Ramblas! Cheese platters are excellent and the choice of wine is incredible. We had a Portuguese and a Georgian red, both of which were delicious. The staff are very friendly, chatty and welcoming. The atmosphere is delightful and always seems to attract a lovely crowd. It's unique, nowhere else quite like it in Preston, so somewhere to really treasure.

Loads of wines! Friendly service! Lots of games to play. Last time we came there were loads of cheese too but this a bit disappointed they didn't seem to have any

Winedown is an absolute hidden gem. Such a brilliant choice of wines by the glass (or bottle) and the food is great too - recommend the cheese pots, superb. Staff very friendly.
