Our wine list is exciting, diverse, and always being added to here at Whiskers Wine Bar and Bistro. We take great pride in our wine selection, collecting some of the tastiest members of the sparkling, red, white, and rosé families. We sample hundreds of different wines from independent wine suppliers and vineyards in order to compile our impressive wine list. If you’re not sure what you’ve got a taste for when you visit us, tell our staff about what you look for in a good glass of wine and we will make our best recommendations for you.
Why not accompany your wine with a delicious light bite? All of our menus are designed by Chef and Owner Jonathan Cook, professionally trained by leading chefs Tony Binks and Chez Roux.
If you’re not in the mood for wine, we also have a range of beers, spirits, and soft drinks.

BUCK AND BIRCH - SUPPORTING CHAS
We have a couple of new additions on the bar that are not only rather delicious, they support a fantastic cause. Both are created using Birch, a new spirit creation from Buck and Birch which is married with raw sap & seasoned with wild birch flavours harvested throughout the seasons. We’re serving a Birch & Tonic or Birch Martini, & for every drink sold we are donating £1 to CHAS, Children’s Hospices Across Scotland.
