Open all year
Our patio is open all year round! In the summer you can bask under the 37-year-old grapevines planted by the former owner Christos. In the winter you will find it enclosed and heated, so you can cozy up during the colder months.
Ontario's first independent wine store
Bottle Shop
In 2019, we opened Ontario's first ever independent bottle shop less than 24 hours after the take-out alcohol laws were changed. Today our bottle shop is a thriving stomping-ground for our community of wine, beer and cider lovers. We carry our own bottles alongside the best wines from all over the world. Available at our Bloor location and online.
our name
A true paradise
Our name, Paradise Grapevine, pays homage to the former bar and restaurant that occupied and still defines our space - Menalon Restaurant. We will be forever grateful to have been passed on such a remarkable and beautiful space to make our own. Today Christos and Athina are still our landlords and have been our greatest supporters. Without their trust, we never would have had the opportunity to occupy this paradise.
Unfortunately this sandwich sign was stolen from us, if you see it let us know ;)
