Barrels Wine Bar

Fantastic wine selection paired with lovely charcuterie options. Love going there to see Friday evening music, especially when Chris Stevens is playing!

This is a wonderful little spot with great hospitality. A wide selection of wines and I have enjoyed several of the plates here. Thank you Barrels for being a great neighborhood spot.

I had the pheasant sandwich which tasted as though it had come straight out of the fridge, and the honey, brie and crackers which also were a bit chilly. In case anyone is wondering, the crackers were paper thin. I wasn’t expecting the food to be sizzling hot, but a little warm would’ve been nice. Otherwise, perfectly edible.

Visited October 2024. Delightful little wine bar in a nice neighborhood on Mercer island. Attentive service, excellent wines and simple affordable food options. Friendly and relaxed atmosphere inside. Not the least bit pretentious which can be a problem at wine bars.

I came in a party of 6. 3 of my friends were charged twice. We called to correct the error with proof, the refused a refund until we threatened charge back.

Meh. Place was overcrowded and drinks spilled. There's some drama with the owner having a friend who takes advantage of women that really spoiled the mood. Plenty other bars in the area that are cheaper and offer a more relaxed experience.
