Natural wine bar with seasonal small plates & cozy atmosphere
"A cozy, romantic spot with a beautifully curated wine and cocktail selection. Linger over the long marble bar with their Harvest Moon: a blend of pamplemousse, chinato, lime, and IPA. The dinner menu changes with the seasons, as the executive chef relies heavily on local farms to source the freshest ingredients. If weather permits, grab a seat on their back patio." - Brooklyn Digital Foundry
"A Brooklyn wine bar that was part of the Oberon Group's portfolio; the co-owner previously served as the group's director and had ties to its operations." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Spend enough time in Cobble Hill, and you’ll eventually find yourself on a date at June Wine Bar. The narrow room lined with glowing bulbs is always home to at least four or five pairs getting to know one another, either at the long marble bar, or in one of the booths tucked to the side. Part of the appeal is the fact that you don’t have to commit to a full meal. Pair some skin-contact chardonnay with a plate of translucent charcuterie or a green goddess gem salad, or go all out with a burger topped with caramelized onions. Natural wine is the focus here, but the food isn’t an afterthought." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman
"June is a go-to spot for natural wine in Brooklyn, with by-the-glass offerings that change regularly and an extensive bottle list that includes sparkling oranges. All of its wines are natural, and the staff is very knowledgeable when it comes to recommendations. There’s also a solid menu of seasonal small plates: cheeses, mortadella, Little Gem salad, and entrees like a burger or a half-chicken. In warmer months, opt for the secluded back garden, but the low-lit, dark-wooded interior is cozy, too." - Robert Sietsema
"Specializing in natural wines, June is a truly excellent neighborhood spot in Cobble Hill. The interior is small but cozy, and there’s a big backyard with lots of seating. This isn’t the kind of place where you meet up with your friend of a friend who wants to network. This is the kind of place where you come with people you really like (or for a first date) on a night when you don’t need to rush. It’s comfortable, it’s charming, and it's reasonably priced, so you won’t be horrified by your three-hour bill." - will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
