Great location, wonderful small courses to share, great wine flights, a highlight experience. Took great care of the children of our group, but maintained a very courteous and professional service experience. Highly recommended!

Wife and I had a nice late evening meal of tapas and glasses of wine. Sat inside even though weather was great and outside tables were avialable. Quiet and romantic. Great server and service. Not pushed out the door. Not inexpensive but worth the extra costs. Total tab $94 plus $15 gratuity. Go and enjoy!

As nice as our server was she was not knowledgeable on various wines.The cheese assortment was disappointing. The crowd varied but the place is dead after 10pm. I have been to many wine bars around the world and this doesn't come close to many that I have experienced. I would much rather take the drive to Houston.

I live in a wonderful community - The Woodlands, Texas. They have done an outstanding job attracting restaurants and shops. As a result, The Woodland has become a destination for even those close to home - from Spring, Conroe & Houston. The Market Street area, across from The Woodlands Mall, is a great place to wander and spend an evening.... More

Food was ok, but too much hard sell on their tasting menu and on 3 occasions we got a mouthful of sediment at the end of the glass. Would expect more from an establishment who are holding themselves out as wine experts.

I lived in The Woodlands and enjoyed this bar/eatery often. It is a geat place for lunch and/or dinner. The samplings of wine are outstanding. We even enjoyed one of our New Years Parties here.

This small chain of wine bars is not stand out amoungst a crowded field of competitors. The wines offered are generally somewhat pedestrians and they follow the annoying habit of flights that basically have one drinkable wine on them. I have generally found the staff to be not incredibly knowledgable about the offerings and the food options are unremarkable. Id... More

We have been to Cru in The Woodlands a few times before and have enjoyed the laid back atmosphere they offer. My wife, 9-year old son and me really enjoyed our visit while we waited to head out to a concert at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. My wife and I tried a wine flight recommended by the waitress along... More

We went here on our first date and it was amazing. The server was very knowledgeable, and the wines were delicious!! We will go back next time we are in town.

I had been to the one in Austin, so when I found out there was one in the Woodlands, I had to be a repeat offender since the experience I had in Austin was superb. Boy was I glad I did. We went in just to have a quick bite with great wine prior to an Iron Maiden concert on... More
