We stopped in to check out the speakeasy and have a cocktail. Cute set up and the espresso martini was delicious. Short staffed but very friendly and communicated with us to keep us informed on our wait.

Service was very slow, it's also NY state only everything so the selection of drinks is very limited. The red wines were terrible, and it was very warm with no music.

Cool, quiet spot, drinks were great, charcuterie was good, it is a bit expensive. My only complaint would be the service was quite slow.

Total hidden gem (at least if you’re not a local). Front looks like an upscale wine bar with an eclectic design. Step inside and greeted by Owner Jim, who gives you an interesting story or the origins of the place then to the secret door (looks like a bookshelf) down a flight of stairs and to a super chill spot with tables and pictures from our American past, actors, historical figures etc. the drink menu is vast and unique and Jim and staff are more than happy to give some recommendations. My favorite part was the fact that all liquor and food is obtained from local businesses. I personally love small business partnering with other local small businesses. This is a must try if you are in the area. Thanks Jim and. Team for making it a memorable experience

Jim and his team have created something truly unique and magical with the speakeasy in the downstairs of the Vinifera lounge. From the personal connection with the host and invitation through the secret bookshelf and staircase to the curated display of stone and artwork and the delicious cocktails, liquor selection, and handcrafted delicacies, this is a one-of-a-kind experience we will most definitely return to!
We visited Vinifera on Saturday the 2nd of March. The place was hopping. Was a wonderful atmosphere. The host Kate was very fast, personable, and informational of the questions we asked. We will be going back and suggest to anyone who happens to be in the area to book your spot and experience the place, you will love it.

It’s a neat place. You really don’t feel like you’re in Geneva when you’re there. The ambiance is cool. The cocktails are a little pricey and I feel like they may not have been made correctly. I had a NY sour and it was a bit too sour and the red wine wasn’t floated on top. My wife’s cocktail was supposed to have rosemary and sage but didn’t have any of those flavors (and was actually garnished with thyme). The rose (Hermann Wiemer) was very good though. Jim was extremely nice and helpful.

Went in on a Monday night and was greeted by an amazing manager, Kate! There is such an awesome atmosphere with so many incredible wines to pick from. The Sommelier obviously put a lot of effort into their job!! Kudos to the owners and the staff, I can’t wait to go back!!!

Such a cool spot! The Speakeasy is a small space so be sure to make reservations. But the vibe was cool and it's decorated so cute too. Our drinks were great! I thought it was very reasonably priced at only $12 for speciality cocktails. All wine and spirits are locally sourced from NYS. Also, Kate was great! Excellent service.
