Fun place with live music. Food options are limited, but tasty. I keep missing out the Sicilian square slice, but it sure looks good. The fries are hot, crispy, and yummy. My favorite menu item is the Quesabirria Flautas. They have some excellent cocktails. I can't pronounce my favorites, though. The musicians are usually quite good, the service is friendly, the atmosphere is fun. read more

Just came in the other night solo. Had the Shrimp Cocktail and it was delicious. Just had a cider to drink. The ambiance is like a place you could get lost in time while being very rustic feeling with Moody lighting. The staff was friendly and very conversive. I can say this place is now my new favorite happy hour spot to go to after work. read more

The Fink - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Napa, California

The Fink is a refreshing change of pace from Napa's many tasting rooms and a great stop for those looking for a cocktail experience. Conveniently located near several downtown staple stops, it's an easy addition to an afternoon or evening exploring the area. The cocktail menu is extensive, with plenty of creative options and stories behind many of the drinks. For my fellow gin cocktail girlies, I'd recommend starting with the Bronx Cocktail. For round two, the Bee's Sneeze is another solid choice. I paired my drinks with the lobster roll, which was the standout food item of my visit. The bun was light, fluffy, and perfectly toasted. While the lobster salad wasn't the best I've ever had, it was a very solid bite for a dive-lounge-style bar. I'd skip the chips it comes with, but the fries are absolutely worth ordering. One small service hiccup worth mentioning: the fries are listed as coming with a herb aioli, but mine arrived with ketchup. When I asked about the aioli, my server initially tried to play it off before eventually sharing that they were out. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but it was an odd interaction that could have been handled more directly. The atmosphere is a dark, casual lounge with a cozy hole-in-the-wall feel along the river. The staff was welcoming. If you're looking to trade wine tasting for a cocktail side quest, The Fink is definitely worth a visit. read more

Came here on a Saturday night. Got 3 drinks and all 3 were off menu and all 3 were exceptional! I'll have to ask my friend for the names because I need these drinks to happen again! My favorite was the first cucumber drink I had. It was so refreshing! The second cucumber drink was so tasty, and had some spice to it! Their menu is extensive but it's the fact that the are true artists that I love! read more

Stopped by The Fink on a Saturday night and enjoyed the chill vibe. It feels a bit like a speakeasy at first, you walk into the building, go through a second door, and then you're in this island-style tiki bar. Cool transition. The bartender was super kind and sweet, which always makes the experience better. We ordered Painkillers (our go-to at tiki bars). The flavor was a little different than what we're used to, not super pineapple-forward, but still good and unique. The bartender shared that the syrups are made in house, and the presentation was definitely fun. Overall, I'd recommend this spot if you're looking for a relaxed place to hang out, sip on some drinks, and enjoy island vibes. They didn't have live music entertainment when we were there, but it looks like they do host live music at times, which would be a great bonus. read more

The drinks were good, the service was friendly if a bit awkward at times, and the ambiance leans a little dive bar imo. It's a good location tucked into the corner of the downtown food scene, but not a food destination. read more

Fun little spot in downtown Napa. The vibes were old times, boats, sailor saloon. We came in for the live music, which we enjoyed with a glass of wine and fries. Service was friendly and food came out quickly. There was plenty of seating at the bar, booths, and tall tables. Even some couch and chairs near the stage area. The place quickly filled up after we got there. We saw some folks get up and start dancing. It's a nice time with good crowd. Not too loud but not too quiet either. read more

I stopped by The Fink in Napa and really enjoyed it! I had the Phoenix Down cocktail, which was absolutely delicious, and my friend got the Painkiller, also great. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the bartender was super friendly and attentive. We shared an order of fries, and the dip that came with them was surprisingly good, definitely worth getting. The only downside was that they happened to be hosting a bingo fundraiser while we were there, which made things a little loud, but the event itself looked fun and I imagine that's not the usual vibe. Overall, I'd definitely come back, great drinks, great service, and a really charming spot. read more

Awesome bar on Napa river. Great Cocktails. All different types. The Roemary Cashews are the bomb.Old Tiki vibe but cocktails are their thing. Stays open late for Napa. read more

My husband, sister & I came here last Tue around 5pm to have a cocktail at this Tiki bar. All the booths were already taken, so we sat at the far end of the bar. Ozzy took our order. I got a Pain Killer, my sister got a Iuka's Grog, and my husband got on odd one called Twelve Mile Limit. They were all delicious, but for $18ea. you would think we would have at least gotten a slight buzz, but we didn't. The $8 bar nuts were good, but all in all this place is a bit too $$$ for what you get. You're paying more for the ambiance, and unusual drinks. read more

My experience here was incredibly frustrating. I was approached by a crabby female employee who immediately hit me with a terrible attitude. She snapped at me that I couldn't take my drink outside, and then proceeded to berate me for smoking a cigarette--despite the fact that I was standing completely away from the entrance and not bothering anyone. There was absolutely no reason to be that aggressive or rude. The way she handled the situation was completely unprofessional, and I left feeling totally picked on and singled out. It completely ruined the vibe. I won't be coming back. read more

NYE at The Fink! We were lucky enough to find a table and had the best gentleman server. He was extremely attentive, patient with everyone and was all around wonderful for the holiday. Our drinks were delicious and the menu was quite extensive. You forsure will be able to find something you know, you like and a new favorite! Things got a little rowdy before midnight and it was taken care of fast and our night wasn't ruined. Glad us bystanders weren't hurt! The only downside were the bathrooms, they were the most nasty things I've ever been in. Pee all over the toilets, floors and even the walls. I decided to just not use them, the smell was over powering. read more

The Fink - Aoxotl - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Napa, California

Each time we've been to Napa, we've been to the Fink, and I don't see that changing any time soon. I enjoy wine as much as the next person, but sometimes one needs a break when in the Valley of wine and the Fink has plenty of cocktails to choose from (maybe too many). I have enjoyed each of the cocktails I have tried, as well a few small plates that have been shared (most recently the artichoke dip and lobster rolls). I'm not sure where the nautical theme fits it, but whatever, it's fun and staff/service is always excellent and very friendly. read more

Great craft cocktails And Our server Glenda was amazing !! We will definitely be back read more

The craft cocktails are truly unto themselves. There are just some combinations of drink you cannot find anywhere else. All of the staff members make some truly impressive drinks. It's a rare and welcome treat in this day and age that there is no television mindlessly scrolling in the background. The cocktails and the ambiance make the Fink so truly special. read more

The Fink - Polar Bear: Mezcal, creme de menthe, white vermouth, celery bitters - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Napa, California

This place was recommended to us by our hotel bartender at the Alba for having high quality drinks and they seem to have a very wide selection which is nice! Located in downtown in it's own little plaza. Parking was fairly easy to find late night around 10pm. The waitress was so nice and when i told her i wanted a fruity drink she asked if i liked gin and then said if she could pick my drink. I got the boisenberry gin cocktail and it was refreshing and not too strong and tasty. The vibes are nice inside. U can seat urself there are booths, high tops, and couch seating area. I would def be back for another drink bc u can tell it's quality! And they make all their juices in-house! Yay! And great service! read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon with friends right when they opened (~4pm). We were in the area and were looking for a spot to enjoy some drinks and small bites. This place was perfect. We definitely beat the rush and got a nice spot in the back for our group of 6. A few minutes after we were seated, we looked up and the place definitely filled up. They have an extensive cocktail menu so almost certain there's something for everyone. The servers are pretty well versed on the menu too so they answered all our questions on the cocktails and small bites. Great laid-back vibe here and the perfect place to grab drinks with friends! read more

Fink has been on my radar and in my saved places for quite some time. The namesake owner, "The Fink," spoke at a mid-century modern design event I attended a few years ago, and I've followed him on Instagram ever since. So when he casually posted on NYE encouraging people to stop by--no cover, celebratory vibe, rad DJ--I was genuinely excited. We were already going to be in Napa for dinner and hadn't chosen a place for the countdown, so it felt perfect. When we arrived around 10pm, we were greeted at the door by The Fink himself. After the obligatory thanks-for-coming pleasantries, he immediately tried to dissuade us from coming in, saying the bar was too busy, there was no seating, and we'd be waiting a very long time for a drink. This was odd, considering I've been in far busier bars on regular nights, and we had no issue standing. I mentioned we just wanted to have a drink by midnight. It was raining, and we weren't about to wander around Napa looking for another spot. In reality, we waited maybe 15 minutes for a drink, and by 11:30 we had seats. People were actively leaving before it even hit midnight. Then came the countdown, or rather, the lack of one. The DJ completely fumbled it. How hard is that? There were also zero New Year's decorations--no horns, no hats, nothing. This stuff is inexpensive and feels like the bare minimum when you're promoting a celebratory NYE vibe. Around 12:15, possibly earlier, The Fink got on the mic and announced the DJ would play two more songs and that it was last call. He seemed visibly stressed, and the overall energy felt tense and inhospitable. The vibe was like being at a high school house party where the host spends the entire night worried someone is going to break their parents' vase or that the neighbors are about to call the cops. It was one of the lamest New Year's Eves I've experienced. Maybe this place shines on other nights, but NYE is not it. Also the decor was nothing that I imagined. The image branding doesn't match - not a Mad Man retro vibe - more like a regular bar in anywhere USA. Drinks were ok. One was genuinely awful. We did enjoy a pour of straight, well-aged rum, which my husband ordered specifically because we didn't want our last drink before Dry January to be bad. We even bought the bartender a pour, and that ended up being the best thing we consumed all night. read more

Tiki-adjacent cocktail bar that also serves food. I say tiki adjacent because although it's not marketed as a tiki bar the decor is very tiki-esque and they have a few cocktail drinks. With that said- the tiki cocktails we ordered were a little off from normal tiki drinks. The other cocktails were fantastic, I especially liked their mocha milk punch. Their food was also good, slightlyyyy overpriced for the portion size. The service was great and I did like the ambiance, although next time I think I'd stop somewhere else for dinner and have a drink or two here. read more

Excellent cocktail choices and great shareable foods! Lobster roll and Reuben sandwich is especially memorable! Owner Fink was always present and made sure to come to the table and get-to-know. Andy was also extra gracious and provided a lot of history on the nautical theme bar. Love it and will definitely return with local friends. read more

This is our new favorite bar in Napa! From the outside, it blends in with the surrounding complex, so you'd never guess how cool it is inside. The drink menu is so impressive and I love how they categorized it by location and theme - there is something for everyone and every mood! There was also a food menu available of snacks - we ordered fries which rounded our drinks very nicely. My husband kept saying how much he loved the atmosphere, and I agree! And the staff couldn't have been friendlier. We hope to return the next time we're in Napa! read more

What a great spot! Came in on a Sunday night where two events were happening at same time. Location is great with tons of free parking all around! One event was the owner was hosting a wine appreciation event for his winery, Judd's Hill. Three wines were tasted and amazing yummy bites came out. The pizza which was on a focaccia bread with sauce and light cheese. The real winner was the fries and an delicious sauce for dipping. Fries left me wanting more! The other event was a bar takeover over by six local bars. I was only able to try one from local bitters- wow!! Would love to come back to experience the normal Fink cocktails. read more

Be very cautious with this place. As a luxury travel company that has operated locally for over 15 years, we've experienced many establishments in the area, and this one gave off a very unsettling vibe. If you're a single woman, be very weary and careful. Even tonight we attempted to tip our waitress, but she was gone now and we were were told she didn't get the tho they'd "share" it. In addition, staff members behaved inappropriately toward my wife, trying to involve her in something that felt uncomfortable and entirely unwelcome. Wtf?? When we tried at the end of the night to tip our waitress, the bartender stepped in, disrupted the interaction, and shortly afterward the waitress disappeared for the remainder of the evening. As the night went on, it became clear that something was not right with the way this place operates. I do not recommend this establishment. I strongly suggest choosing a venue with more trustworthy and transparent ownership. read more

Review updated. They have a great mai tai, but they raised their prices from $16-18. Feels greedy. Not going to pay more for a mai tai here than at some of the OGs. Docking two stars. read more

What an extensive cocktail menu! The bartenders were friendly and willing to elaborate on the various ingredients in the drinks. The interior has a sea shanty kind of vibe to go with the cocktail-grog theme. Both cocktails we ordered were very well balanced...not too sweet, not too alcohol forward. Would totally go back! read more

I found this cocktail bar while visiting Napa and I'm glad we made time to visit. We arrived right as they opened and we were the first to patronize the establishment that day. Its nautical decor was sophisticated yet fun. The bartenders were also acting as servers and they were super nice and helpful as we studied the menus. We order food and drinks and it all was very good. The Faye Valentine was super refreshing and the espresso martini had a unique, full bodied taste. We also sampled the Painkiller which had a fresh, handcrafted quality. We had food but the drinks were the star of the show. I definitely plan to visit this bar again during future visits to Napa. read more

Such a cool bar, huge cocktail list, and had a fantastic band the night we went. It was a Thursday night and we got a table easily after dinner. The servers were helpful in recommending cocktails.
