This place really deserves to succeed - a great concept and interesting variety of food and drink options, particularly for people who can't drink very much, but want to try several different wines.
The bar is a really warm and welcoming place. The self serve wine dispensers are really unique and the whisky range amazing.
Had a great night with friends and will definitely be back!
Stumbled upon this amazing wine bar in Brunswick and just had to go in and check it out. With it's hip vibe, and wine on tap; there is a lot to love about this awesome bar. It's an average size space, but there is a funky seating area overlooked by the coolest wall mural. Blackboards list the current wines on tap as well as an amazing cocktail list.
The vibe was chilled, and it was a busy night with a funky crowd. Staff were really cool and friendly, helping us pick our drinks. I had a cucumber gin spritz to start which was so refreshing, and I finished with some amazing wine... secretly because I wanted to see how the vacuum style system delivered the wine to the glass. It was quite fascinating and I would recommend Biff Tannins if you want to try something a little left of field compared to your typical wine bar. I loved it and can't wait to go back.
This is a cool little bar tucked just off Sydney road. Great name! Decor is a little confused with fake plants coupled with cool grungy artwork but who cares. The pizza was delish and the wine machine so cool! A great novelty which served an excellent purpose! We met some really cool people here too - it’s not pretentious or hipster - it’s just cool.

Biff Tannin's is a great little bar tucked away in a leafy through-fare off Sydney Road. They serve up an an extensive selection of wines and whiskies with the aim of creating a cellar door experience. They also have a selection of craft beers and a few bites like pizza, cheeses and meats that you can pair with your drinks.
I dropped by here on a Sunday afternoon, lured in by the offer of $4 pizza with any alcoholic drink purchase. The pizza was delicious although the base was a little doughy. That said however, the drinks here are a little on the expensive side with a glass of wine starting from $11.
What I found very interesting and innovative was they way their wine counter was set up. Its a self-service system where you use a swipe card to dispense glasses of wine from the selection - perfect you are planning to do a bit of wine tasting as you can choose how much to dispense.
The space itself is open and airy and extends into an small outdoor seating area. The atmosphere was very relaxed and service was friendly. I might have to drop by again for that $4 pizza deal.
Cool little find hidden just off Sydney Rd. The staff are lovely - helpful and love to have a chat. The self service wine is definitely a novelty with an excellent and extensive wine list. I do love being able to have little taster glasses so you can try a few different wines! Its quite pricey - all those tasters add up! But the happy hour beer special is very reasonable.
Great little spot just off Sydney rd. Lovely quality pizzas, self serve wine machines with some really good wines on tap. Also extensive whisky range! We’ll be back!
Good delicious pizza, a huge range of spirits and some excellent wine by the glass make this a magnificent Sunday afternoon delight. Staff are friendly, the courtyard location is a plus being removed from the noise of Sydney road and the atmosphere is light and breezy.
Not sure how the concrete forecourt will handle summer temperatures, but I'll be back for sure.
Nice.

The self serve wine machines are awesome! The service is also superb and all the people that work there are so lovely! I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a great night with friends!
This is a great space, hidden away from Sydney road Brunswick, but totally worth finding. Great choice of wine, beer and whiskey. We stopped in for pre dinner drinks and a cheese and meats platter and will be back!
I ❤❤❤ the idea of self serve wine. A little dangerous at times perhaps, but the great thing about Biff Tannins is that an indecisive 'taster' like me can try lots of wines by the half glass and not end up on the floor at the end of the night. Love it. P.S. we also tried their pizzas - perfect complement to all that delicious wine.
The place is in a bit of a strange place a little sterile in the middle of ol European Sydney road, but if you can close your eyes and open them on the whiskey list and beer list you can have the best boilermaker experience in Brunswick. Hopefully it'll warm up in time, good luck guys and welcome to the neighbourhood.
Outstanding selection of whiskey. Some utter pearlers.
There's a wide selection of cheese plates and they come with delightful extras (like walnuts and slithers of apple).
Outdoors space is nice and the tall ceilings make the bar feel really open and give it a nice atmosphere.
Don't be fooled by the bar's choice of name. The staff and the place are not at all like their Back to the Future namesake -- they are welcoming, warm and fun (and clearly love a good wine pun). A self-serve wine bar is a rare breed these day and Biff Tannin's offer this; on average $3 for a taster, $6 for a small glass and $12-15 for a standard glass, with nearly 30 wines to choose from. If you are not a wine aficionado, they also serve amazing cocktails. Oh and they don't exploit the fact that you are probably wine drunk and hungry, but instead look after you. Amazing woodfired pizzas (four flavours to choose from) that are only $4 with the purchase of an alcoholic beverage.
We absolutely love Biff's and can't wait to go again on our next visit to Melbourne.
Great little wine bar in Brunswick. Relaxing vibe and excellent wine and whiskey selection. My only complaint is the food is a bit on the pricey side but the drinks are good value.
Edit: since I was last here they now have a $4 pizza deal with drink purchase which is exceptionally good value.
Small intimate wine bar , seating outside available. Great pizzas
The ambiance in the place is perfect. Great for small and large groups. Very accommodating for the 2 functions I have had there. Pizza are the best value in Brunswick and drinks range is vast. Cannot go past the wine station - swipe and pour!
Great selection of whiskey and wines. The self service feature is excellent and a great way to sample many different wines (you can choose to have a taste, half, or full glass of wine). Very relaxing and modern decor. Friendly staff. Will absolutely be back!
Amazingly friendly staff who know what they're doing with whisky. The pizzas are as as delicious as they look (that is to say, very tasty). Nice relaxed vibe, perfect for quiet evening drinks. Cannot recommend highly enough!
