Quick info
About Nelsons Wine Bar
Nelsons Wine Bar is a vegan, plant-based wine bar in a basement on Crown St in Hebden Bridge. The kitchen serves small plates made to be shared between the table, with okra fries among the dishes, and every plate is vegan. Natural wine is the focus of the drinks list, which sits alongside the food rather than apart from it. A sound system plays music in the room. Date vodka shots are also sold, with the proceeds going to Palestine.

Customer Review Summary
Vegan small plates shared across the table are what reviewers praise most, including several who say they are not vegan and were still won over. The okra fries come up in more than one review, and diners also name the mushroom masala, a daal, the pathia with pickles and dips, the broccoli salad, the glass noodle tofu dish and a squash makhani curry. Close behind is the drinks list, with natural wine and a great wine choice singled out, plus date vodka shots. Reviewers describe the room as cosy with cool vibes, a good sound system and tables that are not too cramped. Most call the staff lovely and friendly, and one reviewer suggests booking on a busy Saturday. The one critical review describes staff walking away before an order was finished and eating behind the bar while a table of used plates sat uncleared, until the diners got up and paid. Another reviewer recalls staff bringing their dog a blanket to lie on.

“Such a great vegan meal at Nelsons wine bar, we had 4 small dishes to share +okra fries, every dish was well thought about and absolutely delicious. The broccoli salad and the glass noodle tofu dishes were particularly stand out. Would eat here again in a heartbeat.”

“Staff didn't wait long enough for us to finishing ordering before starting to walk away. They was also to busy stuffing their face with food behind the bar to clear our table, was a good 15 mins before we ended up just getting up and paying as we was fed of of sitting at a table covered in plates while finishing our drinks.”
