Tony is an amazing and competent waiter. Thanks for such attentive and kind service. It was a Friday eve and I wanted to try this spot for my birthday- after seeing lobster roll on the menu on the fb menu. Temps were in the 80s not 100s so we chose to eat outdoors. Tried the gazpacho, liver pate and deviled eggs to start. I would return here just for deviled eggs!! They were flavorful, textured (with the roe on top) artistic and pretty much the best I've had! Just perfect. Gazpacho was just okay. Tasted flat and almost artificial. Liver Pate was interesting and tasty and was served w crusty bread and garnishes. Lobster Roll--I was not expecting Maine or Martha's Vineyard amazingness and it was still disappointing. Not packed with meat, meat rubbery and tasteless. It was served with aioli sauce on the side which helped it and a lobster roll should be amazing without sauce added. Pasta with cheese, broccolini and shrimp was tasty (to me) and my foodie dining companion said that the greens slightly overwhelmed the dish. Crème brûlée was light, not overly sweet and refreshing. Drinks were great! See photos. I will be back to try other menu items and another order of deviled eggs! Overall a great spot.

We aren't in Kensington often, but this little gem of a spot offers aesthetics, a robust draft selection and surprising wine selection- with an interesting yet thoughtful and well executed menu. Bao buns are viet (Vietnamese) and flip (Filipino) approved. If you are asian you understand and appreciate the difference of both sides approving. Then move to chili cup which was also spot on flavor and depth. Well done as we move from Bao to chili. Also for the white wine lovers, splurge on the Sancerre sauvignon blanc- if you like Sauvignon blanc like I do- it was worth the that next level and we decided to buy a bottle from the store to take home. Also happy to see viogner on the wine list- although I find the blends best. This was a nice pair down for the key lime pie. Perhaps I should have stayed with the first. We will def be back as Both the food options and drink selections are fabulous! Ps sorry I am unsure why my chili photos disappeared *cry *cry *cry

Went on my 1st date in a long time to Knowles. The service was great, there was an employee that had us in stitches with his slapstick jokes and light banters. I never got his name. Returned fir 2nd date and a 3rd time! That was almost 2 yrs ago...still with my guy, went back today fir order pick up. Food is still great! Had the chicken sandwich n fries. Although fries were on the skimpy side. Over the place is the same, just can't wait to return to their patio ******************************************

I've had a night out at Knowles Station Wine & Co a couple of times now, and I've gotta say, it's a pretty chill spot. They've absolutely nailed the wine game, and to my surprise, they also have a solid beer selection with, I think, 20 on tap. It's a neat combo of a wine shop and an eatery. The food's decent - it's not the star of the show but complements the drinks well. Each time I've gone, the service has been really good; the staff are friendly and know their stuff, which adds to the vibe. It does tend to fill up on weekends, but they've got an upper area that's hard to see from the outside, so don't be discouraged if it looks full. Definitely worth a visit for the drinks alone!

I recently moved to the Kensington area and was looking for a new place to buy wine and stumbled across this gem of a place. I was looking for a buttery Chardonnay and a moscato to celebrate my new move and the staff were incredibly helpful. One gentlemen showed me around the store and gave me several recommendations which I absolutely ended up loving! This location also has food selections although, I didn't try it this time. I'll definitely be coming back to try the food. It's also a cute, aesthetic location just to meet with friends!

We've been twice to Knowles Station and are big fans! It's such a cute little wine shop- a bit pricier than others in the area but you're also getting curated selections from around the world that you can't find at your local beer and wine store. On Mondays they have no corkage fee so go in, pick a bottle, sit down and enjoy! Their menu is pretty spot on. Big big fan of the fried calamari- it's light and crispy and comes with two of the best sauces I've ever had (siracha honey and old bay aioli). The steak frites we had ordered came out waaaaaaaaaayyyy over cooked and I was planning to still enjoy but the bartender noticed and insisted he get it redone (or less done!). It was perfect the next time. Things happen- and they fixed it- all that matters to me! A bartender we had one time (I wish I had gotten his name but he had a septum piercing) was phenomenal in recommending different glasses for us. I love when they do that! I mean it's a wine bar- explain what and why I should drink that one! Definitely a place we will return to, and it's a great addition to Kensington!

My friend and I were looking to have a Guinness Stout on tap, so I checked my Untappd app and found that Knowles Station was the closest venue currently pouring Guinness. It was a quiet afternoon, so we decided to sit at the bar. The venue is really nice, I like the design a lot. We had a great service from our bartender, Ethan, which also included some excellent conversation! I also loved that Ethan was trained on how to properly pour a Guinness Stout We had some food, which was absolutely delicious! This is a great place with a fantastic selection of Beers and Ales, good food, and top notch service, we will be back!
