Curious Minds Want To Know

GENERAL INFO

Where are you located?

We’re centrally located in Las Vegas, just a few miles from Summerlin , 7 miles from the Las Vegas Strip,  5 miles from the Arts District and Downtown. We are nestled in Spring Valley near Buffalo and Sahara. Yes, we’re that convenient. And yes, we do have a couch in the lounge, but no, you still can’t move in. (We’ve checked the lease.)

What are your hours?

We are open Monday thru Thursday from 3 PM - 10 PM, and Friday, Saturday & Sunday from 2 PM-10 PM. Early birds, night owls, and curious sippers welcome. 

Do I need a reservation?

Not usually. We’re first come, first served. But if you're bringing a crew (6 or more), give us a call so we can make space and set the vibe. Founding Members, you already know—you can reserve your favorite bar stool on Thursdays or the best table for your birthday bash. Perks of commitment.

Is parking available?

Yes! We’ve got ample free parking right out front. We’re also fully ADA accessible inside and out, including the patio. Overnight parking is allowed.

WINE + DRINKS

What kind of wine do you serve?

All kinds. Our by-the-glass list is constantly rotating—over 30 wines on offer at any given time. Think bright whites, juicy reds, refreshing rosés, textural orange wines, bubbly sparklers, and something for every mood, from light and zippy to deep and bold. We’re always pouring a proper Champagne by the glass, too. Into sweet wines? We’ve got a few tucked away just for you. Ask, and you shall sip.

Do you offer wine flights?

We sure do. Pick any 3 wines from our rotating flight list for $24—perfect for the curious sipper who wants a little bit of everything. Not sure what to choose? Let us do the heavy lifting. No decision paralysis here—we got you.

Want to dive deeper? Check out our monthly tasting classes and “drink while you think” events. We make learning about wine fun, approachable, and just the right amount of nerdy. Come thirsty, leave brilliant(ish).

What if I don’t drink wine? 

You’re still in good hands. We’ve got a killer beer list (including draft, bottles, and cans), a rotating menu of non-alcoholic mocktails, and a few thoughtfully crafted spritzes and ciders. Whether you're pacing yourself or skipping alcohol altogether, there’s something delicious here for you.

Do you sell bottles?

Yes—we’ve got an extensive bottle list of wine and Champagne from around the world. Taking it to-go? You get 25% off. Perfect for dinner parties, gifts, or just stocking your fridge with something more unique than grocery store Pinot.

Can I bring my own bottle (corkage)?

Nope—we’re a wine bar, and that means the wine comes from us. But we’re confident we can help you find something you'll love, no matter your style or budget.
 Exception: Our Bottle Share events, held every 4–6 weeks. Buy a ticket, bring a bottle, and swap sips with fellow wine lovers at the table. Want in? Join our mailing list or follow us on Instagram for the next date.

Can you help me source something specific?

Yes—we’re pretty great wine detectives. If you’re after something rare, special, or nostalgic, we’ll happily try to hunt it down.

FOOD + GUESTS

Do you serve food?

We do. Think elevated snacks, small plates, and charcuterie boards designed to flirt with your glass. Come hungry(ish), leave well-fed and perfectly paired.

Can I bring kids?

Sorry, no, our liquor license requires us to keep things 21+ only. No exceptions, even for quiet babies or teens who pinky promise not to sip. We like wine, and we like following the rules.

Can I bring my dog?

Yes—on the patio only. Service animals with proper documentation and a harness are always welcome throughout the premises, per ADA guidelines. No matter how well-behaved or adorable your furry friend is, all dogs must stay on the floor, not on laps, chairs, or tables. It's a health department thing—and also a common-sense one.

EVENTS + GROUPS

What’s your gratuity policy for groups?

Groups of 5 or more will have 20% gratuity automatically added. Easy peasy.

Can I rent your space for a private party?

Yes. We offer everything from partial event options to full buyouts. Whether you're hosting a fundraiser, a sit-down tasting, a casual winery-style pour party, private wine education, or a curated food-and-wine pairing—we tailor the experience to fit your vibe. Want the full scoop? Reach out and let’s talk group size, timing, and what kind of magic we can make happen. 

WINE CLUB + EDUCATION

Do you offer wine classes?

Absolutely. Our “Drink While You Think” classes are part tasting, part discussion, and part “wait, what is that flavor?” We dive deep into wine regions, styles, grapes, and the weird, wonderful science of what’s in your glass. All levels welcome. Especially the curious ones. Check our events page to see what’s going on!

Can I join your wine club?

Yes, and honestly—you should. It’s a monthly fee with a one-year commitment that includes fabulous wines, exclusive perks, and a community that makes you want to show up just because it’s Tuesday. Check our wine club page for all the details!

What makes Crush Pad different?

We’re not here to impress you with tuxedos and tasting notes. We’re here to spark curiosity, conversation, and maybe a minor obsession with volcanic soil or weird grape varieties you can’t pronounce. Crush Pad is a wine bar for people who want to drink well, think deeply, and laugh loudly. No snobs, no gatekeeping—just real wine for curious minds.
