Copper Vine is what would happen if a swank wine bar married a craft beer joint. Owned by Brechtel Hospitality Group (BHG), the same company behind Fulton Alley and the Walk Ons franchise up the block, Copper Vine is a gorgeous spot close to the Dome, Smoothie King Center and in the heart of the CBD. If some wine bars can be snooty, this one is a breath of fresh air intent on making wine sipping approachable and fun. BHG founder Kyle Brechtel had a vision with Copper Vine, imaging an approachable and inviting place for tasty food and 30 wines on tap. Add in the knock out interior, second floor balcony, communal tables and private dining options, and Copper Vine is sweet indeed. Chef Mike Brewer, known for his award winning spot The Sammich as well as stints at Brennan's and Commander's, gets creative with gastro pub cuisine, offering snacks like deviled eggs topped with jumbo lump Louisiana crab meat; beef carpaccio with Tabasco� pickled strawberries, pea shoots, snow peas and shaved radish; and flatbreads topped with the likes of duck confit with bacon jam and goat cheese. Substantial mains run the gamut, from crispy pork belly with braised collards to gnocchi with citrus cream, mint and jumbo lump Louisiana crab meat. The stunning Edwardian building was originally constructed in 1876 as the Maylie's residence and restaurant.
