Customers generally praise Flawd for its fantastic vibe, friendly and welcoming staff, and an incredible selection of natural wines. The small plates menu is described as expertly curated and delicious, with a particular appreciation for fresh, locally grown ingredients. Some feedback notes that wine prices might reflect the venue's location more than the wine quality, and there are mixed feelings regarding the automatic service charge.
Flawd is owned by the same team behind the acclaimed restaurant Higher Ground. Its unique location on the New Islington Marina provides a distinctive waterside setting. The establishment functions both as a place to dine and enjoy wine, and as a bottle shop where wines can be purchased to take home.
Given its nature as a wine bar with sharing plates and a 'buzzy atmosphere', Flawd is likely ideal for evening visits and casual gatherings. It can also host events like wedding receptions.
