Wally's Beverly Hills

"This is my Cheers. I go there five times a week. Everybody knows my name. I discovered Wally's because I'm a big wine drinker and they just have the best wine selection. It's an award-winning wine list and it's curated by these buyers who can curate your home wine cave, and so that's what we usually do. We're like, 'Hey, we're a little low on French burgundies,' and they'll curate what they know my taste is. They will know the price range I wanna stay in. I love that they're just such experts, and that obviously spills over to spirits and beer and gourmet food. It's also a little shopping center. I get my specialty cheeses there and my jamon Iberico. The charcuterie boards they make are to die for so I'm constantly ordering those for parties. They have really great cocktails, too, like their espresso martini with reposado—when you order an espresso martini in a bar, you should always ask for tequila, not vodka." - brennan carley

"If there’s a serious wine person in your group, they’ll appreciate Wally’s. This wine store in Beverly Hills doubles as a restaurant with a menu of pizzas, pastas, and lots of cheese. There’s a private wine room where, in addition to feeding you, they’ll serve you wine pairings and something called caviar flights. Capacity: 25" - Sylvio Martins, Kat Hong

"Movie Pairing:The First Wives Club (Netflix) “Don’t fact-check me on this, but I’m pretty sure there’s a law saying you can’t watch The First Wives Club without drinking your weight in wine in the process. So, make sure you secure a delivery from Wally’s. The Beverly Hills wine bar has one of the largest (and best) wine stocks in the city, plus solid snacks like flatbreads, truffle popcorn, and charcuterie boards to keep from getting too drunk. Not that Goldie, Bette, and Diane would judge you for it - I just want to make sure you make it to the end for the dance number.” - BC" - brant cox, kat hong, brett keating, james montgomery

"Walking into Wally’s in Beverly Hills (or Santa Monica) is like walking into LeBron James’s wine cellar (we assume - we’ve unfortunately never been). The walls are lined with floor-to-ceiling bottles, and the entire place is chilled to cellar temperature. They’ve got some of the highest-rated wines in the world at all different prices, and a section for 95+-scoring wines under $100. App delivery available, along with in-store pickup, free local delivery, and free nationwide shipping (on orders over $99) via their website." - brett keating

"If you live or work in Beverly Hills, there are a few things you know. First, don’t ever overpay for parking when there are so many public lots. Second, just because Leo is eating there, doesn’t mean the restaurant is good. And third, if you need a bottle of wine, Wally’s is the best place in the city to get it." - brett keating
