Boston – Petit Robert Bistro

This French wine bar is the perfect location for a mulled wine at brunch. The omelette parisienne and croque madame make great mulled wine pairings, though simple viennoiseries are equally (if not better!) paired. The spicy smoothness of the mulled wine is the perfect accent to the chilly Boston winter.

This speakeasy-style setting of dim lights and light jazz music is an ideal backdrop for an evening of mulled wine sipping. Grab a spot at the bar and drink your way back to the 1920s, but don’t come hungry. Nuts and olives are basically what’s available in terms of noshing.

Washington D.C. – Tryst

What sets Tryst apart from most other mulled wine spots is its cozy coffee shop vibe. With abundant plush couches and free internet, you might be here for awhile. And if you’re meeting friends who aren’t in the mood for booze, it’s not a problem. They can order a lavender hot chocolate and share a slice or raspberry ricotta cheesecake.

What pairs better with mulled wine than small plates and tapas? With three separate menus for snacks, small plates, and bruschetta, there’s something here for every size hunger. We recommend pairing your mulled wine with the french fries with malt vinegar aioli or one of the three bruschettas.
