Arbaretum at Napa Valley Distillery

Thoughtful and bespoke cocktailsI'll be adding this place to my list of most favorite places.The bartenders are seeking to make your experience here at the Arbaretum memorable. My first drink was a strawberry drink. I'm sorry I don't remember the name! It was wonderful!I ordered the San Remo. This is a juicy drink presented beautifully. This may become my signature drink here. My honey ordered the Not a Dad Bod but a Father Figure. This is scotch forward drink, finished with a wonderful pecan smoke!!!!What a great place! Not to be missed!

Cocktails and snacks were great. I had the 3.1415, boyfriend had the grandmas pie-jinks. The boozy hot chocolate is VERY boozy. Mulled wine is delicious.We ordered the bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers, corn elote, wagyu sliders, and truffle fries. Highly recommend the jalapeños and wagyu sliders.

I know this is a cocktail bar but... the truffle fries need their own moment to shine if there's ever truffle fries on the menu, I HAVE to get them and these did NOT disappoint. Almost ordered a second round, but had to save some room for dinner! LolIt came with ketchup and some sort of aoli with what tasted like olives on top (someone correct me if I'm wrong here). Whatever it was, *chef's kiss*.Next up: espresso martinis of course!They mentioned this was pre-batched with vodka (my friend wanted tequila), but don't let that scare you away! It was so smooth and delicious. We didn't want to order something pre-batched at a fancy cocktail bar, but they indeed make this in house, just ahead of time! Probably to save some time - since they're so yummy I can imagine they get ordered a lot! If you don't like your espresso martinis milky, this is the one for you!The service here was also very prompt. We were greeted immediately and they took our order within 5 minutes. The place was stunning and although everything came out in a timely manner, I wouldn't have minded waiting because there's just so much to take pictures of in the meantime! Lol needless to say, I'll be coming back for you Arbaretum!

This is my 2nd review of this place because I feel like they deserve it. The staff is so friendly and personable. This is our go to spot for pre-dinner cocktails because they are so crafty with their drinks and they always deliver on cocktail goodness. They change their menu seasonally, including a few staples that never leave the menu. This PB&J drink was fantastically cute with its mini toast and Pb&J spread. I forgot to take a pic of my hubby's Root Beer Infused Old Fashioned. To honest that was the best old fashioned I've ever had! They currently have a warm holiday hot cocoa cocktail that they keep in a sous vide. It's a must try for these cold nights. If you're ever in the downtown Napa area, this place is a MUST TRY!!!!

Such a great experience at this bar! JT and Jorge hooked it up as soon as we walked in with a warm welcome and great seats! Ambiance was amazing and the music was even better. I got the bespoke which is the same price as the normal cocktails. I wanted something sweet and tasting like s'mores and Brenda the bar tender cooked up a great s'mores drink and then I asked for a hot tamale like drink which she nailed and had the perfect sweetness and spice. BRENDA, JT AND JORGE ARE THE BEST!

We stopped by here on a weekend for a quick drink and it did not dissappoint. All the drinks they made were so good. This is not your average bar, you are coming here to get the best drink and experience. They defintely put a lot of heart and thought on what goes on to your drinks. The bar it self was cute and inviting and they also have outdoor seating. The bartenders were all so nice!My husband enjoyed ourselves and will be returning!!

Pretty cool cocktail bar with indoor and outdoor seating.We sat on their couches inside which just has a coffee table next to it.The bartenders eventually made their way over and took our order. The service was fine but they didn't seem overly happy to help anyone.The bourbon flight included a bourbon that we both felt was disgusting, which obviously isn't their fault but it seems weird that it's included in the flight.Overall, not a bad spot downtown Napa.

It's always a vibe here ! The ambiance is LEGIT! Sunlights , greenery and hella knowledgeable staff. It's a must stop when I'm in Napa !!!

Stopped by for a quick drink before dinner. Very cozy spot filled with lush greens to follow the arboretum theme. I came on a Wednesday night and it was relatively busy for a weekday. Regardless, the service was solid. They were eager to stop by and check on me throughout my time there. I got the Gentleman Caller. It was a perfect blend of whiskey with fruity essences. Definitely recommend stopping by

This place is super cool!! Yes, pricey cocktails. But yes, you're in Napa and this town isn't cheap. I would recommend sitting inside at or near the bar so that you can watch them craft these amazing drinks - the bartenders are like scientists!Great place to people watch with a beautiful and tasty cocktail in your hand.
