Catering Review I recently ordered back-to-back days for off-site catering events. First, the ordering experience was a breeze thanks to the clear and timely communication from Kali. The charcuterie boards were bountiful and presented beautifully, they even thoughtfully included labels so everyone knew what they were enjoying! The tres leches was a crowd favorite! Hats off to the curator. The variety of gourmet sandwiches and house baked chocolate chip rye cookies were devoured! You can see and taste both the love and quality in each bite. My guests were delighted so I wanted to pass along my extreme gratitude for making me feel like the hostess with the mostest. Can't wait to visit Vinbero in person since I have heard nothing but great things about the food, wine, and atmosphere. read more

Vinbero was fantastic, and I'm excited to go back. I went with a few friends so we could split and enjoy a few sandwiches and wines. A couple in our party were vegetarians, one hates the taste of cilantro, and I'm allergic to avocado, so we threw them a bit of a curveball, but everything was great and accommodated for. First, the wine: so good. Really enjoy their wide selection and varieties from all over. They had something for everyone, and our server clearly knew their way around the wine menu. Very helpful and enjoyable. There wasn't a single option we weren't raving about. I think we tried a couple of the orange wines and whites, all perfectly chilled. The sandwiches were absolutely amazing, but before we even got to those, we enjoyed the heck out of the salads. They're huge and so full of nice zesty flavors and seasoning. Definitely one of the most exciting salads I've had out before. And since we were splitting up our orders among us, they went through the trouble of dividing the salads. So kind. The French Onion was great. Can't go wrong with that combo of gooey cheese and onions. Paired nicely with the wine, too. The caprese was substantial. Some restaurants skimp on that one, but not here. The real crowd pleaser (which I had sans avocado) though was the Mojo Mushroom Melt. I could eat that every day. That orangey sauce with the earthy shrooms... so good. We'll be back! read more

Best Cobb salad I've ever had. Sandwiches were awesome as well, and the servers were really nice.

We made a reservation for lunch (having a larger party) recently as the restaurant was highly recommended. The indoor area has a fair amount of space but larger parties may want to call ahead. We started with a bowl of their trademark popcorn while deciding on our options. The Bahn mi was a table favorite paired with the kale salad. The soup of the day was a tomato bisque which was very flavorful. One of th vegetarian options (a mushroom grilled Sandwich) received high marks from our party. While the food was good, the staff and ambiance are first class. I look forward to sampling a few of their recommended wines in the near future. read more

Great service, food, ambiance and wine! Had a simple GF grilled cheese and tomato soup... perfect for cold winter lunch. Our server ( apologies on not catching her name) was lovely! read more

An incredible wine bar from the people that brought you Kelnero. Intimate setting, great service and amazing wines and food.

Vinbero is the real deal. Great food, ambiance wine and now cocktails. The service was fast and friendly. We always have a great time at Vinbero. read more

Kris and Kali have set up such a great space here! The food and wine selection is always changing so there's tons of variety. I've been in the wine club and love getting the curated selections. The staff they employ are friendly and always eager to offer help or suggestions when picking up food/wine. Glad they are part of our community. And their indoor chairs are super comfy! read more

This was my 2nd visit. I want to love this place but they make it hard. The staff doesn't seem happy working there ... kinda sad vibe. If you're gonna charge 18.00 for sandwich and soup it's gotta be amazing. The tomato soup needs cream ... it's flavorful - but too acidic. The grilled cheese should be crispy/grilled not just melted butter on bread. Came in wanting a great soup and sandwich and left feeling disappointed - similar to my first visit. I have a hard time recommending. read more

We love this spot for any meal, although for most folks the food menu is probably more satisfying for lunch than for dinner. Our favorite, however, is brunch! We definitely think it's a slept-on brunch spot, probably because people don't really think of a wine bar as a place to go for breakfast food. They have some delicious offerings, though, with a more thoughtful "foodie" lean to the menu -- we prefer theirs to any other brunch places in the neighborhood. The shakshouka, eggs benedict, hash, and avocado toast have all been great. Friendly service, cozy vibes, and of course a great place to pick up a bottle of wine to take home after your meal. read more

Vinbero continues to iterate on an already great lineup. Their menu is fabulous and it's one of my fave lunch spots to drop in on. Great wine selections. A super cute outdoor area facing the walkable Edmonds. All around fantastic stop in Edmonds. read more

The sandwiches here are amazing and I love how they source local food staples whenever they can. This is the ruben sandwich, sorry I took the picture after eating half of it. The bread was nice and crispy but the star of the show was the pastrami. Oh, my goodness. It was loaded and it had such a great flavor that I could not stop eating it. You need to get this sandwich. The only change I might make is change out the ruben sauce for mustard, but I will be back for another. I also love their bahn mi sandwich. I did not get it this time but I honestly don't know which one i like better. read more

Vinbero - Ruben sandwich with popcorn - Cheese Shops Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Great gluten-free options! I have celiac disease and Vinbero staff was very accommodating. I had the Chicken Club and it was fantastic!! (and didn't get sick!). They even gave me two full sandwiches because gluten-free bread always comes in such small slices! They serve sandwiches with a side of popcorn which is fun and unique. My friend got a grilled cheese and tomato soup and said it was fantastic as well. We will definitely be back and will recommend to others! read more

Six words, "served with a side of popcorn". You really don't need to know anything else but if you think you do here goes... The Cobb salad is solid and packed, no skimping on anything. I asked to sub in parmigiano due to an allergy and it was high quality, legit Italian cheese. The club was well made with thin sliced chicken, bacon, balsamic and came with the all important popcorn. Delicious food, generous portions, high quality ingredients and friendly, knowledgeable service. Definitely coming back. read more

We love Vinbero and come here frequently! The food and beverages are amazing. Unfortunately, we had a server who was not friendly and had attitude the minute we walked in. She was rude throughout our entire service. We have been fortunate to have other servers who have been consistently friendly and made our experience wonderful in the past. I don't like leaving these kinds of reviews but it's important for the owners to know when someone on their waitstaff make it a poor experience for a regular and loyal customer. read more

Vinbero is a wonderful local establishment. It's cozy, with welcoming and knowledgeable people who aren't pushy. There are unique and fun sauces and other food items to purchase as gifts or for at-home treats. The food they serve on-site or to-go is truly fantastic--some of the best sandwiches and salads you can find anywhere, plus great wine pours and tastings to enjoy. In a town with a lot of really special and enjoyable options, Vinbero is a favorite. read more

The food was good and the beer selection was probably the best I've seen outside of Europe. We get there at 6pm on a Friday, prime time. We were warned when we got there that they were out of the Banh mi sandwich, but that's okay, we had our sights set on other stuff. We order the mac and cheese, turns out they're out of that too. Dang. At least they still have the Soprano. Our table mates order their food and the Chardonnay, but they were out of that too (or they had it but weren't sure how to tap the new keg?), which I thought was weird since it's arguably the best of their whites to pair with their grilled sandwiches. Waitress comes back to tell us they were also out of the Soprano... maybe there's a covid related food shortage? Disappointing :(. At least the server was apologetic, which is appreciated. If you want to try this place, definitely do! Especially if you like belgian beers. This is more of a review for management I suppose. read more

Been here twice already! My mother and I think that this place has the best grilled cheese sandwich & tomato soup we have ever had in our lives haha. No joke. I went back just for that alone! Super cute place. Most excellent customer service--very friendly, attentive, and knowledge staff! Will definitely be back and try other things too! read more

Amazing salads. Great vibe as a "neighborhood spot" with nice local spirits and wonderfully interesting wines. Super friendly!

Sandwiches were delicious - I had the club and my kids had the grilled cheese and tomato soup. Our server was very friendly and recommended a perfect wine pairing. Would definitely return. read more

2nd time was worse then the first. First of all $16.00 for a sandwich that wasn't that good is ridiculous. We had a Bahn mi and BLT. Both lacked flavor. Worse part was they said they would call our names when the order was ready but they didn't so we had cold sandwiches. Only good part was the popcorn. We're done with this place. read more

Horrible customer service. Wont go back ever or recommend anymore. Outside chairs are metal and cold and uncomfortable. They wouldnt let us change them out for the inside chairs even though it was sunny out, a covered patio AND they were super rude about it. We had a dog and so we ended up at Salt and Iron, where they served us outside, lit the the heaters, AND brought the dog milkbones and a water bowl. Salt and Iron was awesome and delicious. Wont ever go back to Vinbero. read more

When this place goes out of business it will NOT be because of the location, the wine, the ambience, or the service. It will be purely because of the horrible food. read more

Always a good (and often unique) selection of wines by the glass and good wine-bar food to go along with it. Recommended!

Honestly servers were very nice and attentive. However, there were a few things that were weird. I saw the picture of Shakshouka on the website and I thought, great, I'm going to get that. The bowl was 1/2 of the size of the picture. I was still hungry after the meal. My boyfriend's mushroom melt came with popcorn, seriously? What's the nutritional value of popcorn?? Would it be better if it's like salad? I felt like this place is more for wine than food. Next time I'll get more hearty meals on Main Street. read more

Love the Cobb salad so full and fresh. The popcorn is the best snack. The chicken sandwich is amazing too and the vibe good service from all the staff. read more

Came to Vinbero for the first time for happy hour and wow, what a treat! Excellent service and wine selections. We had the red pepper tartare, one of the seasonal flatbreads, and a new special they had on the menu. The portions were plenty to share. Incredible service and ambiance. I highly recommend this gem in Edmonds! read more

Just had the one-two punch tomato soup & grilled cheese sandwich combo! Soup was extra peppery bursting with flavor! Grilled cheese was superbly executed with just the right ratio of cheese to bread. Seriously the perfect light lunch. read more

I want to like the newness of Vinbero but it's way overpriced, snobby and SLOW. The owners are great - I just wish they had kinder staff, especially for the price you pay. I remember when this place was the Cheesemonger - so delicious, laid back, friendly and more affordable. read more

We need more places like this in Edmonds. The staff will brighten your day, and the wine selection is so intentional and tasteful. The sandwiches are UNREAL good if you happen to come for lunch. Highly recommend! read more

Very cute spot! The atmosphere was very relaxed and quiet which is what I wanted. Our main server was fantastic, she recommended wines that sounded like would fit our tastes. My boyfriend was very impressed with how attentive the server was. The food was amazing as well. I got the beef and bleu, and was surprised that it was so tender and flavorful! Boyfriend got the chicken club, and he said he loved it and he would definitely get it again. It seemed like he scarfed it down in 5 minutes! We would love to come back and support this small business and hope to see new wines in their rotation! read more

We came in on a Monday (sept. 19) with my boyfriend and his friend, I forget our servers name, but he was wonderful. He had brown hair. I recently turned 21 and I have not liked wine so far. He was so understanding and brought a few different drinks for me to try and I found out I like rosé !! I appreciate his patience and that it felt like he genuinely wanted me to find something I liked. read more

Used to love coming here regardless of the slow service but I came in today and we were the ONLY ones in there so I was surprised when the two behind the counter were chatting away and our meals had been sitting on the counter for close to 10 mins before we said something. The response was there was a glitch? But all we noticed was you guys chatting away and didn't notice the food sitting there. The "hot sandwiches" and soup were all maybe like warm. When we talked to the guy with our feedback he had zeroooo acknowledgement towards us and had nothing to say and just an annoyed look on his face. I feel really sad that as patrons who visit here often and Edmonds residents, we have no intention of coming back. Unfriendly service and felt like we were unwelcome in the restaurant. Giving two stars only bc food was good even if it was cold from sitting on the counter. read more

First time here. Such a treat. We tried the preset four course meal with wine pairing. Each meal and wine pairing was carefully crafted and curated for the ultimate culinary experience. I look forward to what they do next. Will definitely be back. Such a gem in downtown Edmonds. Each bite is worth every penny spent tonight. Highly recommend. read more

Vinbero is my all time favorite sandwich (and wine!) place. Edmonds is lucky to have it! We were huge fans of the previous wine bar and are so so happy that Vinbero has stepped in and continues to offer great beverages and eats. Love love love it. read more

First time having dinner at Vinbero last night. The service was exceptional. Our server Aimee was knowledgeable about the wines, and when we expressed preference for red, she recommended several, and we ended up with a delicious bottle of Tempranillo with dinner. Our server also recommended several menu items that were simply the best. The club sandwich, served hot, was the best club I've ever eaten. The in house roasted chicken and some sort of balsamic glaze made it so juicy and delicious, and the salad with green goddess dressing was simply perfect. The ambience was cozy and lovely on a winter night , with the candle light and wood wall art. We will be back! read more

When this location was a cheese shop only, I used to dream that they would be open in the evenings so I could have a glass of wine and eat cheese and sit on the outdoor patio with my dog or husband and people-watch. Vinbero has made all of those dreams come true. The charcuterie board here may be the best I have ever had (so lovingly curated and put together) and the staff is enthusiastic about sharing wine with you that you will love. Also, the chocolate chip cookie is definitively the best I have ever had in my life. Perfectly salty and dark and sweet. I am rarely in the mood for a chocolate chip cookie, but I order one every single time I am here. If you want to splurge a little and join the wine club, get ready to feel like royalty. Along with your regular pick-ups, there are commonly events to showcase new or favorite offerings, and the pours are... generous. No surprise that something so impeccable is coming from Kris and Kali Kelnero. I love this town. read more

We love Vinbero! Not only are their employees and owners very knowledgeable about the products that they sell and serve, the employees and owners are welcoming to all people and treat everyone with respect and kindness! Keep being awesome Vinbero! ‍‍ read more

Looking forward to a date night we chose this neighborhood location. Unfortunately the server was less than enthusiastic and very curt in conversation. After selecting a nice bottle of wine with our meal off their shelf-we found out after the fact that they charged a corking fee. She showed us a small sign by the wines we missed and was very cold and matter a fact. As a professional and former business owner I would want to be advised of this poor customer service. I hope this review gets attention and that others will be warned of this hidden fee. The wine was $30 + meal and the fee to cork their wine was $20. read more

Great service experience tonight. Excellent food and the charcuterie boards are wonderful. But, although the wine list is amazing and the wines offered are generally top-notch, the pours are much less than the industry standard 5 ounce. For premium wines, they offer a 1/2 poor option. However, a less than 2.5 ounce pour at an exorbitant markup is really not worth it. Not sure I'll go back. read more
