Our Story – Chord Bread & Bottle

At Chord Bread & Bottle on King Street in Alexandria, VA, we combine a gourmet sandwich cafe with a retail wine shop into one unique experience topped with a hint of rock n roll.    We stock an eclectic selection of retail wines – Californian, European, exciting reds, and elegant whites selected for character, drinkability, and the simple joy of opening a great bottle on any given Tuesday!

Alongside the wine, you’ll also find local craft beer, ciders, and ingredients to build your afternoon charcuterie board.

Enjoy our curated selections with our handcrafted sandwiches & salads featuring quality bread and authentic ingredients; nothing overdone or added simply for taste. 

Above all else, we hope to provide a genuine hospitality experience to every guest! 

Cheers,
Scott
