Spoke Wine Bar

Spoke Wine Bar in Davis Square pairs a changing wine list with small plates that give you a reason to stay for dinner. Cheese and charcuterie are available, but the kitchen goes well beyond a board: recent dishes include sunchoke doughnuts with Gouda, tomato flan and burrata with Sichuan hot-and-sour potatoes. Vegetables get as much attention as the fish and meat. Order a few plates to share, then see where the evening goes. The drinks list includes orange wine and rosé alongside reds, whites and sparkling bottles, plus cocktails and nonalcoholic options. The room is small, so booking is sensible if you have a particular evening in mind. It works equally well for a wine-focused visit or a meal built around trying several dishes.
