WHERE WILL I BE COOKING:

Lees Den—part of Benjy Levit’s Local Foods Group—is a speakeasy-style wine bar featuring limited production, rare-find wines handpicked by General Manager Chrisanna Shewbart and offered at below-retail prices.

A warm, cozy interior studded with vibrant plants has served as an unexpected oasis in the middle of Rice Village’s hustle and bustle since April 2022.

The wine bar is situated above Local Foods – Rice Village, which also houses Local Foods Market, at 2424 Dunstan Road, #125.
