4 Best Wine Bars near Alachua

“We love Beaker and Flask. The wine selection is excellent and interesting. It’s a welcoming place with a lovely atmosphere - elegant but also very comfortable.“

“Nice wine selection and atmosphere. The waitress was very polite, professional and knowledgeable. They have way too many Israeli wines which was a bit alarming given the fact that we don’t support genocide, but if you don’t like it just don’t consume that product. Other than that, cool spot.“

“Delicious every time, healthy and yum!“

“This place is fantastic and I absolutely recommend it to everyone who has a chance to stop by the Newberry Square plaza. The decor inside is so charming and lovely, with tons of pirate-themed trinkets decorating every wall. If you have kids, they will love the little shelf in the corner with picture books and toys!

The food is INCREDIBLE! The menu features lots of dishes that you can’t get anywhere else in Gainesville, like Kazakh borsch, Ukrainian pirogies, Siberian pelmeni, Polish and German sausages, Turkish pakhlava, Baltic sardines sandwiches, as well as shawarma and an AMAZING honey cake! The hummus is phenomenal and both tastes great and is also plated beautifully.

The service is also great; small family-owned business and everyone is so friendly, warm and welcoming. We were a group of 4 and one of the owners told us that she was impressed with our appetites!

We went around lunchtime (1PM) on a Sunday and did not have to wait to get seated and the wait time for the food was also not bad at all.

Can confirm that the Kazakh borsch, beef/chicken shawarma, hummus and honey cake are all delicious. We also tried their blackberry lemonade and mango aloe vera drinks!“
