I honestly loved their set up with a wine tasting room in the front and tables in the back as well as areas for a food truck or a pop-up to sell in cater to you as well. The lady serving me was very friendly and helpful. I commented on this cute picture of a forklift and she said that was her as a little girl in the back!! So freaking cute!! Great Space and I could see live music being played here if they don't do that already. I'm new to the area so I will definitely be checking out there local events!! I really like their reds and their white wine that they served. I would love to do a food pairing which they didn't have available, but I love the aspect of different food truck vendors in the back. Granted a food, allergies and both the vendors had things I'm allergic to. I know my friend loved the noodles she got!!

The Pinot Noirs, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc,Gerwurztraminer, and the sparkling wine were some of the best we had at the price point resulting in us joining Noria's wine club and also purchasing seven bottles of the wine we sampled. The atmosphere of the tasting room is very laid back and unpretentious. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend.

The venue is both very comfortable and cool with a variety of seating options for guests, the Hammerling wines we selected to be served were delicious, they had a perfect outdoor space for a pop-up pizza oven to set up, and Hammerling's manager and staff were exceptional - both during the planning phase and during the party. The vibe was so lovely, and the bride and groom could not have been happier. And it was a great way for our out-of-towners to get a nice slice of Berkeley. Everyone had a wonderful time, and it was just the best kick off for the wedding the following day. Highly Recommend!

We also ordered the cheese tray where you can pick your cheeses and crackers. It was yummy. The place is industrial with wine vats taking up most of the space.

Bathroom could use some attention.

Kinda hidden on a corner right off University & 5th; make the right onto 6th & scoot around to park on 5th or University. They buzz you in, best to make a res., but seems like walk-ins are ok. Very modern, yet welcoming feel, tables spaced well for intimate encounters and a bar with Hightop seating. da Grub & Libation: I had res. for a buddy & I and belly up to the bar; they offered a table, but we're bar flies by nature. Very diverse wines by the glass & bottle so we had 4 different glasses w/ a modest charcuterie plate. da Service: Excellent, warm, friendly and genuinely so.
