With only 12 seats, Vera Wine Shop’s new natural light-filled snacking zone might be the smallest bar in the state. You’re likely to find more natural wines on pour than spots to sit, plus a choice little menu of tinned fish, (very good) cheese and their chilled deli mates.

Best for: A wedge of Ossau Iraty sheep’s milk cheese and young Burgundy.
