Self-pour wine and beer by the ounce, small plates and a full bar on Narcoossee Road at Eagle Creek

Curious Cork Wine and Provisions wine bar on Narcoossee Road in Lake Nona

By David Myers, Broker Associate · NonaOrlandoProperties.com · Last updated October 2026

Curious Cork Wine & Provisions is at 14383 Narcoossee Road, Orlando, FL 32832, in the Eagle Creek retail area of Lake Nona. It opened in 2024 and is the only location, founded by Bob Flynn and Octavio Careaga. Guests pour their own wine and beer by the ounce from 64 wine taps and 18 beer taps, or order with full table service. The kitchen serves cheese and charcuterie boards, share plates, toasts, sliders, flatbreads and salads. Curious Cork runs a monthly wine club, the Cork Club, and hosts private events in a private room or on its enclosed patio.

Most wine bars ask you to commit to a glass. Curious Cork lets you pour an ounce, decide you do not like it, and try something else, which changes how a wine bar works. With dozens of wines on self-pour taps, the evening becomes a tasting rather than a single choice.

It is a locally owned, single-location business on the south end of Lake Nona, and it has become the neighborhood wine bar for that side of the community. Here is how it works.

Where is Curious Cork in Lake Nona?

Curious Cork is at 14383 Narcoossee Road, in the Eagle Creek retail area on the south end of Lake Nona.

It is part of the commercial buildings that front Narcoossee Road at Eagle Creek, the same retail area as Eagle Creek Center and neighbors such as Smoothie King and CFS Coffee. Parking is in the shared surface lot.

The location matters: most of Lake Nona's bars are in Town Center, to the north. For residents on the south end, Curious Cork is the closest real wine bar.

How does the self-pour wine system work?

You pour your own wine or beer by the ounce from 64 wine taps and 18 beer taps.

The wine taps use Enomatic dispensers, which keep open bottles fresh, and the beer taps use PourMyBeer. Because you pay by the ounce, a group can work through several wines without anyone buying a bottle they might not finish.

The list rotates through more than 200 wines from around the world, and staff are on hand to suggest what to try. If you would rather not pour, full table service is available too.

What food does Curious Cork serve?

Curious Cork serves tapas-style food: cheese and charcuterie boards, share plates, toasts, sliders, flatbreads, salads and desserts.

The menu is built to go with wine and to be shared, though it is substantial enough for dinner. There is also a kids menu, and the restaurant lists gluten-free and vegan options.

There is a full bar with cocktails as well, so the non-wine drinkers in a group are covered.

What is the Cork Club at Curious Cork?

The Cork Club is Curious Cork's monthly wine membership, with bottles from a featured region, member tastings and bottle discounts.

Members choose bottles from the month's featured region and get access to member tastings, wine-pairing dinners and discounts on bottle purchases. It is the most structured way to use the place as a wine education rather than just a night out.

Membership details change, so check the Cork Club page for current terms.

Can you book a private event at Curious Cork?

Yes. Curious Cork hosts private events in a private dining room, on an enclosed patio, or as a full buyout.

It handles birthdays, showers, business events and graduation parties, and offers a catering menu. The self-pour system works well for groups because guests can taste at their own pace.

Hours and menus change, so check Curious Cork's website before you go.

How does Curious Cork compare with Lake Nona's other bars?

Curious Cork is the wine-first bar on the south end; Chroma and the Living Room at the Wave Hotel are cocktail-led bars in Town Center.

Chroma is a busy modern restaurant with a showcase bar, and the Living Room in the Lake Nona Wave Hotel is a hotel lounge built around cocktails and art. Both are good nights out, but neither is designed for tasting your way through a wine list.

Curious Cork is the one to choose when the wine is the point, or when you want to try several without ordering a bottle.

Pros, Cons and Our Take

Pros

  • Self-pour by the ounce lets you taste widely without buying bottles
  • A large, rotating wine list plus craft beer and a full bar
  • Locally owned, with a single location
  • Private room, enclosed patio and catering for events

Cons

  • Pouring by the ounce adds up faster than you expect
  • On the south end of Lake Nona, a drive from Town Center
  • In a shopping-center building rather than a walkable district
  • Busy on weekend evenings

Our Take

Curious Cork brings something Lake Nona did not have: a wine bar where trying new wines is the whole point. Go with a group, decide on a budget before you start, and work through the taps with a board or two. For south Lake Nona residents it is the closest good bar; for everyone else, it is worth the drive at least once.

What the Neighbors Know

Residents of Eagle Creek live closest, and for them Curious Cork is effectively the neighborhood bar. Nearby communities along Narcoossee Road, including Isles of Lake Nona, are also a short drive away.

Town Center gets most of the attention, but the south end of Lake Nona has built up its own set of restaurants and coffee shops along Narcoossee Road. If you are weighing neighborhoods, it is worth knowing what is nearby without a drive north. The full list is in our Lake Nona restaurant guide.
