Come curious.
Wine from around the world. Thoughtfully made cocktails. Food worth sharing.
Welcome to Bar Vin Wine & Spirits: A short walk from anywhere downtown, with a wine list that reaches well beyond Missouri and California, craft cocktails, plenty of non-alcohol options, tapas-style food and a downstairs Cuckoo Room that changes with the seasons.
It’s the kind of place you can come for one drink and end up staying awhile.
Come hungry. Share a few things.
Bar Vin isn’t a traditional dinner restaurant, and that’s intentional.
Our tapas-style menu gives you the chance to order a few things for the table, mix & match, try something new and keep the evening going.
Think small plates, charcuterie, snacks, desserts and the occasional dish that makes you say, “We have to try that.”
Then go downstairs.
If you’ve never been to the Cuckoo Room, you haven’t quite seen all of Bar Vin yet.
Downstairs you’ll find a separate bar, its own cocktail menu and a space that changes with the seasons.
The Cuckoo Room might be whimsical. It might be mysterious. It might be completely different the next time you visit.
That’s the point.
Make Bar Vin part of your Hermann weekend
We’re a block off the main drag, which makes us an easy walk from the center of town and just far enough away to feel like you’ve found something.
Stop in for a glass of wine.
Meet friends for cocktails.
Share a few plates.
Stay for dessert.
Or make an evening of it.
Look for the purple sign & mosaic lights.

Below Bar Vin is a shape shifting atmosphere called the Cuckoo Room. When I visited, we were greeted by the Mad Hatter (aka Nate) from behind the bar who offered uniquely crafted cocktails straight out of Wonderland. The theme changes with the seasons but the creativity and craft behind the design and the drink menu is above and beyond. Smoke infused coconut creme, buzz buttons that change your taste buds, be ready to experiment! Bar Vin is great too.

We asked at a local restaurant about an evening place to go relax for drinks. Bar Vin was recommended, so we went. The atmosphere was amazing. The staff was amazing and the brownies were phenomenal! There is a speakeasy lounge in the basement that was fun, too. I highly recommend.

We visited Hermann over Memorial Day weekend and found our way over to Bar Vin to try their delicious Bloody Mary’s. We ended up staying to try some more of the delicious drink options due to how incredible and intricately crafted each one was. Ricky was extremely knowledgeable and such a great bartender, who truly loves his craft, and it shows!
HIGHLY recommend coming here for the best craft drinks in town at very reasonable prices!

Stopped in for a night cap. This place has wonderful ambience and a large selection of wine and spirits. The bartenders know how to make some great cocktails. As this place is a few blocks from the main drag of Hermann, you owe it to yourself to venture down and pop in some evening.
