Stanley's Wet Goods

Right on the border of Culver City, this Venice Boulevard wine shop and bar is a must-go wine lovers' destination for Westsiders. Inside the shop, a tiny bar and handful of communal tables hosts drinkers enjoying mostly natural wines and draft beer, and there's even a small heated patio out back. The retail bottle collection means there's always a large selection of the wines by the glass—a boon for anyone looking to try multiple wines in one night. On the weekends, Stanley's recently launched a brunch menu with highlights like Turkish eggs, for those looking to day drink. There's also occasional evening tastings with winemakers from as far as Spain, so check their Instagram to stay up to date with everything going on.
