Wine lovers from all over the state rave about League City’s Chelsea Wine Bar for its exceptional ambience and staggering selection. On your first visit, the prime thing you’ll notice is the bar’s great location. Overlooking picturesque Taylor Lake, the decoration is classy and European, with exposed wood, gorgeous wall murals, and intimate lighting.

When you open the menu, you’ll be wowed by over 150 hand-selected wines, sherries, and ports. The staff is incredibly conversant with the attributes of everything they serve, so they’re happy to describe a bottle before you open it. They also prepare an excellent homemade sangria every day, which is delicious. If you’re a beer lover, the bar offers a selection of 20 draft brews and 50 more in bottles. If you’re feeling peckish, the kitchen makes tasty flatbread pizzas, cheese plates, and other small dishes. There’s live music three nights a week, a nightly happy hour and more fun events to enjoy, as well.
