Great experience as always in Cavavin

Great experience as always in Cavavin, with Loman this time who gave us some super recommendations and ideas, based on our own taste and what we might like to try. Great value for such good wines too.

The lovely owner made me feel so comfortable when choosing as I have had the experience of the best Wines/Champagnes all over the world with experienced Sommeliers, husband and experienced friends so it’s always hard when you know you love good wine but need guidance when choosing the right wine. Champagne easier as one will always know what they like. He Introduced me to a lovely “Sancerre” which is a favourite of myself and my sister and I shared my experience with my family who love the wine from the Sancerre region.
“Verve Cliequot” one of the my all time favourites. It’s become very popular since I first tasted it years ago.

As aforementioned staff 's knowledge on their wines superb. Always a laugh and I can see them with their Xmas Specials been special. Baileys Chocolate which I had the pleasure of sipping at a launch tonight would be a welcome addition to their Xmas baskets.
Well done all..

Disappointing

Fabulous location, and it's clear no expense was spared on the interior which was beautiful. I went with my friend....it was quiet bordering on dead. I had booked a tasting menu. The person that took care of us, was lack lustre and honestly wasnt engaging. As i said I booked a tasting menu. Which turned out to be 6 crackers, brie and a hard cheese which was slapped up in front of us plus four wines to taste........ for 24e each......... it could of been a fabulous experience. It was just poor. Which was a pity as the wines were excellent. Both myself and my friend would of absolutely have purchased wine, but the hospitality was zero. l honestly wanted to love it but I won't be back or recommending it to anyone.

Hi Elaine. Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review of our Wine Bar on Bedford Row. We are very disappointed to hear of your dissatisfaction, at Cavavin customer service is absolutely and always our top priority. We are delighted to hear that you liked our interiors, we did indeed put a lot of hard work into creating our store and Wine Bar, it's unfortunate that the Wine Bar was quiet on the occasion of your visit. The tasting menu that we offer at €24 consists of 4x100ml glasses of wine expertly chosen by our inhouse sommelier with a selection of olives and salted herbed almond nibbles. We were more than happy to swop the nibbles on this occasion for cheese & crackers as per your request. Once again sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your experience, we would love to welcome you back to our Wine Bar some time soon! Best Regards from the team at Cavavin Limerick.

I found an Alladins Cave For Wine Buffs.…

I was looking for a wine shop in the centre of Galway as my previous supplier had closed. I liked tha signage and the window display. The man serving had a good knowledge of the various wines i enquired, I went on his recommendations as i was giving them to friends as presents. I don't drink so I cannot comment on the quality of the wines, only what my friends tell me. They gave me the thumbs up. I like the layout of the shop and the order in which the wines are displayed. I have returned since my first visit and discovered two new white wines. Looking forward to calling in again pretty soon.
