The Fink

Stopped by here for a pre-dinner drink. Super cool vibe (almost like a speakeasy). Located in the heart of downtown Napa. It was steps away from Morimoto (highly recommend this spot for dinner). Do make reservations in advance. Their menu has pages of house cocktails. Service is absolutely fabulous. I got the Mocha Milk Punch and subbed the Burbon out for Tito’s vodka. It was 🔥

My favorite Napa Valley bar, and not just because it shares my last name! Second time there, just as awesome as the first. Judd and his crew are the BEST! Drinks are superb, food very tasty, decor is entertaining, and the service is excellent. Please go, you won't regret it!

This is my second time coming to the Fink. The first time was a quick visit as we passed through Napa but this time this was the main destination. Things didn't start off great, as my wife found a fruit fly floating on the top of her cocktail. We were sitting in a booth so I went to the bar and the gentleman behind the bar apologized and quickly made me a new cocktail. Our server was very nice but she seemed a little, off, like she was on something. She was overly chatty about random things and was very forgetful. The food was delicious. We ended up ordering more food because we were enjoying it a lot. The cocktails were also great. They probably made the best Mai Tai I've ordered at a bar. It was delicious. Since the server was the only one on the floor, it took her forever to make her rounds. I sat there without a drink for at least 10-15 minutes. I finally went to the bar and asked the same gentleman if I could order a cocktail at the bar and have it charged to my table. He said no problem and told me he would send the drinks over. Some time passed and I wanted to have one more cocktail before I left, but our server was no where to be found. I went back to the bar and a blonde lady was bartending. I stood there for a minute and without looking up to me or greeting me, she said, "You have a table. You have a server," and walked away. Incredibly rude and inconsiderate. There was another way she could have said that if she truly didn't want me to order directly from the bar, or she could have explained why she couldn't do that. I said, "Okay...." We decided to leave at that point and go elsewhere for my last cocktail. It was the "womp-womp" of the night and we left in a bad mood. Overall, I do plan to go back and complete my passport. The food was great and so were the cocktails. The server was nice but.... And the gentleman behind the bar and I think the bar manager, the man responsible for the food and cocktails, were courteous and friendly. The blonde bartender, two thumbs down.

One of the best bars in Napa. The atmosphere is amazing. Always greeted at the door by wonderful host. We’ve been there many times and the food and drinks are always top-notch. Excellent cocktails, and mocktails. They even have bingo nights and live music frequently. Highly recommend.

Really fun cocktail bar with a very cool vibe on the inside. A little dark but really interesting decorations. The menu was very comprehensive, almost a little overwhelming, but everything you ordered with our table was delicious. Snackies look great but we were just there for cocktails. Service was attentive and really nice people. One thing I really appreciated was that there was a nice volume of music playing so we could hear it and it was lively, but I could still hear everyone at my table.

Andrew was a great bartender. He was funny and made the place feel comfortable. The long haired blonde bartender was not rude but not friendly. It didnt feel like she wanted to make out drinks. Andrew however was happy so we just made sure to ask him for seevice when he came by. The atmosphere was really nice. Almost feels like a speakeasy.

On December 20 we enjoyed a Passport Celebration" at the Fink, hosted by Judd, with our lovely server Glenda and Andrew (Mr. Salazar) and Oz, the magicians behind the bar . Oh, my heavens! It could not have been a more special occasion. If you are not yet a card carrying Fink Passport member, waste no time in securing your own. Step into The Fink, have a drink, chat with the regulars (and first-timers, too) for an entertaining evening. My favorite - Mike Greensill, third Sunday of each month, 6-8 pm. Thank you, thank you!

Best place for cocktails in Napa. Make sure you order the mocha milk punch

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.

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.

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.

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.

Great friendly service. Very attentive. Live music was excellent!! Great location. Appetizers were delicious

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.

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!

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.

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.

Coolest bar!! Just an amazing space that is very retro. Service is great and attentive and there is a BOOK of cocktails of every genre! Loved mine. Perfectly balanced and different! Tequila and celery juice, bitters, and elderflower.

The Fink is a great place with a welcoming and friendly owner! It has a warm & wonderful ambience with an amicable vibe. It is decently priced considering it is in iconic Napa, Ca. It's a classic bar with only bar style goodies, so if u are hungry, dine beforehand! When we were there, the music was upbeat & fun! We would return!

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!

Wow! All the drinks were absolutely delicious! Our groups got into a booth no problem. The theme at this bar is super cute and quirky. AND OUR BARTENDERS AND SERVER. Andrew made the amazing drinks. We loved our server Glenda. She was so high spirited and had genuinely an amazing attitude. She clearly loves her job. We loved it.

Amazing Pisco Sour. Another mocha drink with homemade cookies. Great menu of specialty cocktails, unique liquors great bartenders!

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.

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.

I stopped by last Thursday to have a drink with my wife. There happened to be a reggae band playing. The delicious drinks and mellow vibes made for a very delightful evening. Will definitely return!

They have a fun drink menu with lots is crafted cocktails. Andrew was very nice and you can tell he enjoys his craft. I had him make me a cocktail with tequila that wasn't sweet and he delivered! It even had chili tincture in it. Very refreshing! Place gives speakeasy vibes dark and cozy but fun! Must check out if in the area

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!

Came here with a bunch of twenty something's, probably not the bar they were expecting. Cute nautical theme cocktail bar with great food and quick service.

Came in on a Friday night and they had a great dj. The food was amazing. We had the lobster roll and the Quesabirria Flautas. To drink the Faye Valentine and the Bee's Sneeze were both amazing. Food did take a little long to come out but service was great.

Huge drink menu and very unique and tasty cocktails & mocktails. Service was great and staff was super friendly. The ambiance was cool. The place is small and has an intimate vibe. The bar nuts were pretty tasty as well. Definitely wanna come back and try more drinks and food!

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.

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!

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.

Fun time with friends! Low key, nice "finky" vibe, great food and drinks! Late night live performer!

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. People were mostly sitting and vibing but every once in a while a small dance floor formed. We had an awesome time.

Food was subpar. Music was ok. Kept over billing above the menu price list. Worse at the end of the night they wanted only cash which obviously to evade taxes.

Love this bar, super casual, excellent food. We had the lobster roll, k-pop chicken and artichoke dip. Lobster roll could not be more perfect. Friendly service and good drinks.

I stopped by for a drink finally! That is, a mocktail ;) I was pleasantly surprised that they had a few options for mocktails, and the chosen one was actually similar to a cocktail (sometimes when I order a mocktail at other places, I just get some club soda and some flavored syrup). I forgot what the name of the drink I had, but it was a light green with a bit of a foamy top. I had my friend try it and she liked it as well and thought it was super refreshing! Our server was sweet as well and the ambience was very 'chill' and dark lit.

AMAZING!! i came here with my family and the place has the most amazing vibes ever. The lighting, music, decor, all of it was awesome. My drink was amazing and I ordered the quesoberria flautas and they were so amazing! the staff was super welcoming and our food came relatively fast. yay

Well, our 10 day trip throughout Oregon all the way down to California was mostly based around family and kids. We shook them loose and took an hour to go grab some fancy drinks in what looked like a super cool little speakeasy. I really wanted something that was different and unique compared to all of the places we used to and looking through the photos this place just looks so fun with the ambience and the overall aesthetics Now I'm not a big drinker and I am a big light weight as it comes so I just looked at what could be the earliest drink in realized why I probably don't go out drinking because man people spend a lot of money on cocktails . Granted a place like this everything is so unique and not just slowly thrown together alcohols and mixer so it's much more understandable than the five dollar water I bought the following day at Universal Studios Hollywood. We got a total of three drinks, and to be perfectly honest I just pointed out the pictures on yelp and told him that's what I wanted. Just about everything here has made from scratch and it's a great opportunity to dress up a little and go out and just vibe. Not a big user of that word but when you come in here and grab a little table, that's exactly what you're doing your Vibin. Come on down and grab some drinks and bring the crew

Been here before so we knew that we wanted to come back. Great service with the friendliest staff. Fantastic drink! The Bramble is SO good! Fries with dip is good. Crab dip is yummm!!! Really cool vibes. Will visit every time we're in town.

Delicious, interesting cocktails, quickly arrived after ordering. Cool space inside, cozy and nautical, with bonus live music occasionally. Owner was super kind, always checking in on people, and happy to chat. We had the hummus, the beets, and the chicken, all were fresh and wonderful. High recommend!

My go-to Napa cocktail establishment. Why? The boathouse decor, fabulous selection of cocktails and mocktails made with fresh ingredients, array of delicious bites that are fun to share and substantial enough to provide suitable sustenance , and a friendly professional team. In summary, there are only things to love about The Fink. Bonus: many nights feature great entertainment.

I'm basing this on two cocktails we had on our maiden voyage to the Fink. Great mai tais with house made orgeat, they seem to know what they're doing and take a lot of pride and care with their cocktails. The ambience is very atmospheric, combining elements of an old rum bar with a modern flare and a splash of mid-century charm. Not an easy combination to pull off. Well done. The service was warm and friendly, down to who I must presume was Mr. Fink himself checking in on tables. Definitely on my list of bar hops when I get that way. Edited to add: Went back and Mai Tai was even better, had some delectable french fries and my friend had some lobster rolls which he raved about.

FINKO! Best Tuesday night out for locals! Thank you Fink for a fun game of bingo and supporting all the local non-profits in town. Sooo appreciated

Unexpected speakeasy and bar. They have a great menu of cocktails which are expertly made. I would like to go back and try some of the food options. We went into hear music from a former local who now lives in Jackson MS. Fun place and we will be back!

The Fink has a unique and extensive drink list, we love trying all the cocktails and snacks. very nice service and owner is usually there to say hello and check in with everyone. We love the fun ambiance and always highly recommend the Fink to friends and family!

We just love this place! It's a fun vibe with outstanding drinks and a huge selection of creative drinks. Friendly staff that will explain what kind of drinks they offer and the flavor profile.

Johanna makes an amazing cocktail! Great place to grab a late night drink. Thank you!

Some of the best drinks I've had! Wish I would've had a chance to try the food, but I'll def be back for it.

Great bar, great drink list, fun band! Best lobster rolls ever. Will definitely go again when visiting Napa, CA

Cocktails and food were on point. My wife and I enjoyed the atmosphere and drink menu- it has so many options, so they have drinks for any person. Crab dip was spot on, amazing!!!

Food was good but I came in at opening, waiter did not know there was no flatbread. The lobster rolls were good. But the soda was $6.

A locally owned nightclub in the Hatt building. Great wine and cocktails. We had tasty small bites. The owner and staff are super friendly!

Fun cozy bar. I highly recommend sitting at the bar and getting to know your mixologist as your experience will be even better. The craft cocktails are unique here where there are some that I have never scene before and some unique takes on classic cocktails. The service was excellent.

Osvaldo and Andrew are the best they personally you drink and also the quesaflautas are amazing I just came here because them I really recommend here please came and support this amazing place

Had such a great experience at The Fink! The atmosphere was great and the drink selection was vast. So hard to pick just one. We also got some of the yummy food - the mushroom flatbread was my favorite! The service was great - they seem to really care about their customers. Will definitely be back again!
