NOW OPEN: CORK, THE WINE SHOP AT COOK!

Thanks to your support, our opening weekend was a tremendous success. So much so that we placed additional orders, and now our shelves are filled with even more variety, just in time for your holiday shopping. Online ordering for pickup is coming soon, so stay tuned!

The COOK space has been transformed into a wine haven, offering a thoughtful selection of wines not available in Pennsylvania’s state stores. Just as with COOK’s class lineup, CORK is a destination for everyone, whether you’re looking to pick up a well-priced table wine on a weeknight or a splurge-y sparkling to toast a special occasion. CORK’s staff is on hand to walk you through the options, share their knowledge, and share what some of Philly’s favorite sommeliers, chefs, restaurateurs, merchants and vintners love. Think of it as having insider access to a spectacular wine list. There’s also a selection of carefully sourced wine accompaniments, including cheese, charcuterie, caviar, and other artisanal culinary items.

CORK is, in essence, an extension of COOK’s existing retail pantry, which features our extensive cookbook collection, plus best-selling items like wine accessories, entertaining pieces, kitchen utensils, and linens. You can walk out with everything you’ll need to pop open a bottle and set the scene for a perfect night at home. And just in time for the holidays, CORK will offer a variety of beautifully curated gift boxes.
