Sparkling rose
Annie J.

This is definitely my favorite wine bar in Raleigh! I usually go to the Midtown location and it never disappoints. The space is open and modern, making it a really comfortable spot to relax. They have a nice wine selection. I'm not usually a sparkling wine fan, but their sparkling rose and sparkling red wine are incredible. The meats and cheeses are delicious, and the staff is super friendly and quick with service.

If you are a wine lover like my friends you will love this place and if you're newer to the wine fandom, like myself, you'll appreciate the knowledgeable staff and opportunity to try new wines. While I wish there was a larger selection of wines to choose from I can certainly appreciate expertly picked and fairly priced wines that are available. The charcuterie board was standard, but again, priced fairly. My friends and I got the "pick three" option for the board and it was definitely enough for 4 people. Pro tip: sit on the balcony during the Thursday beach music concert and get an awesome view!

I arrived here around 5:55pm on a Saturday evening to meet some friends. I was in a group of 4. This was my first time visiting this place and was suggested by one of the friends I visited with. The concept is pairing art and wine. They have a bar downstairs and upstairs. During this visit, the upstairs bar was closed. We ordered at the downstairs bar. They let you taste the wines/ciders, which turned out to be a blessing. They had a blueberry cheesecake cider that sounded delicious... but it is was not I ended up getting the blood orange cider and it was great! My friend got the hummus and crackers, which we enjoyed. No complaints. I noticed it being busy. My friend stated that have been here before and it's not normally as busy as it was. Regarding the wine and art pairing, I found it difficult to view/enjoy the art because the art was positioned behind tables. It would very extremely awkward for me to go up to a table and stand there to observe the art behind them. I think the concept would be better if the artwork didn't have sitting tables next to them. I'll note that not all of the artwork was blocked. We sat upstairs which was hosted string lights from the ceiling, providing a low light ambience. Additionally, we sat at a corner by the window, which gave a nice view of the courtyard. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would return again!

Cheese, charcuterie, crackers & vino

I met up with a friend for an afternoon glass of wine and late lunch, and I was really impressed by this place. They, of course, had a nice selection of wine but also beer and non-alcoholic offerings as well as food items (including gluten free options). I will be back!

What is not to love? Nooks and crannies everywhere upstairs, downstairs and outside to relax and enjoy whatever kind of wine you would like. I loved both the chardonnay and merlot I tried. Husband was fond of his Pinot. Reasonable prices. Order at the bar. Friendly. Clean. Would love one in our neighborhood!

Such a cute, trendy wine bar! This spot is fantastic for charcuterie and drinks. I highly recommend for a date night or catching up with friends.

Charcuterie board

I was here for a group event and we had an absolute great time. Service was friendly and it was pretty crowded which was a good sign. The food was great and we had a charcuterie board which was a good variety and perfect for snacking. Would go again!

Perfect spot post dinner on either a date night or with some friends to enjoy a glass of wine! Or in my case, I came solo while on a business trip and sat outside enjoying a glass of Pinot Grigio while reading a book. Friendly staff, not too loud, and plenty of seating. Definitely coming back next time I'm in the area

Vita Vite Downtown Raleigh is a must visit! The ala cart cheese board was definitely a hit! I'm not much of a beer drinker so I opted for the cider which has now became my favorite! There's an extensive option of wine and beer! They also have ample parking in the back which is a good bonus!

3-cheese charcuterie Hummus
Tanvi G.

Attended a mom's meet-up here, on a Tues evening, at Vita Vite. Wow it is such a beautiful space, with lots of lounging areas and larger tables for groups. I ordered a sparkling rosé and a 3-cheese charcuterie board with a side of hummus. Everything was delicious and vibes are immaculate here. 10/10

You had me at wine

Vita vite is one of my fav wine shops in Raleigh. I often go alone to catch up on work with a nice glass of wine and charcuterie. The service is always great and the outdoor seating is really nice. The wine assortment is nice and the even have games for you to play with friends. It's very spacious with an upstairs and downstairs seating option and located right in the heart of midtown. It's a great date night or friends night out location. They do a good job in making recommendations based on your preferences too.

Charcuterie, cheese, and hummus.

Great wine bar in North Hills. Large, spacious, two-story location. Staff is very friendly and helpful. My wife and I usually go to the downtown location, but I think I like this one even better. Nice selection of wine by the glass, a small, but well curated, beer list, and awesome appetizers. Will definitely be back. I highly recommend.

Malbec & sparkling rosé
Megan H.

Stopped in after a maker's market and had a glass of wine. The space is an industrial boho space filled with local art. You can sit anywhere but must order from the bar. Please note that they keep your card if you open a tab. It had an interesting music selection for the space but other than that it was comfortable and a space we would certainly be back.

Beautiful main first floor area

Stepping into the cigar bar feels like slipping into a well-dressed time machine that decided to…read moreloosen its tie. The air hums with the scent of tobacco, oak, and good decisions made slowly. Plush couches and deep leather chairs form little islands of comfort, perfect for sinking into a conversation that doesn't need to end soon. Along the walls, humidors stand like treasure chests, keeping their cigars in stately silence. Vintage wood glows everywhere--from the bar's polished surface to the beams above--each grain steeped in quiet history. Overhead, TVs flicker with old games and new ones alike, while dart boards wait nearby for a little friendly competition between sips of bourbon and curls of smoke. The bartender slides the Old Fashioned across the bar with the precision of a man who's been doing it long enough to know that showmanship is for amateurs. No fancy garnish, no chatter--just the soft clink of glass meeting wood and a nod that says this'll do. Happiness here isn't loud or glittery--it's slow-burning and pleasantly lopsided, like a jazz tune played just slightly off the beat. It seeps in between sips and smoke rings, wrapping itself around you like the worn leather of the chair you've claimed for the night. It's the kind that finds you sitting still, glass half full, smoke curling upward like a satisfied sigh. Cheers!

I have been stalking this hotel since its renovation, I guess you could call it a green renovation,…read moreboy is it impressive! I am a fan of vintage, especially vintage brought back to life in a tasteful manner with somewhat of a modern twist, this is exactly how I would describe the vibe here. They have a lovely bar area off of the lobby, it feels alive and quaint all at the same time. The bartender are a class act and one in particular even dressed the part, I was impressed. They also have a wonderful outdoor patio, where the old pool was, its a very comfortable place to sit and relax. They make an excellent "old fashioned", they also have a good selection of wine. I plan on returning for a staycation sometime in the future, I only wish they would have considered keeping the pool. Cheers!

Housed inside a hotel that absolutely oozes character, The Lounge at the Longleaf holds its own and…read morethen some. The space is effortlessly charming, with a retro-cool vibe that feels authentic rather than manufactured. The biggest surprise was the bar program. The bartender was a far better mixologist than you might expect from a hotel lounge, turning out cocktails that would be right at home in many of Raleigh's dedicated cocktail bars. It's easy to see why both hotel guests and locals seem to gravitate here. In an era where so many hotel bars feel like an afterthought, The Lounge feels like a destination in its own right. Between the welcoming atmosphere, quality drinks, and undeniable character, it's hard not to fall for this place. I can't say enough good things about The Lounge or the Longleaf Hotel itself. Both are a breath of fresh air.....preferably enjoyed with a cocktail in one hand and a beer chaser in the other.
