Great service and a fun selection.
Fantastic experience! From Dave to the wine and delicious nibbles, perfect! Looking forward to the next time?
A wonderful little wine shop offering unique hand picked wines. We stopped in on a Thursday for a tasting, which on this day the owner offers a blind tasting. We were served four wine, two whites and two reds and were given a sheet of different things to note about the wine and then give our best guess on what the wine was. It was so fun and a great way to really enjoy each wine and also learn more about wines. Highly recommend!

Phenomenal service. Very knowledgeable staff and wine selection.
Dave is an amazing wine guide. He has great taste, and stocks the shop with unique and small batch wines. He knows so much and loves to share his expertise. His tastings are super fun especially blind tasting Thursday. I spent one month in Bend and was at F&F every single day they were open getting my wine and Dave fix. Can't wait to return. Wish that Dave and F&F could be in every city I visit. Enjoy!!!!
Great selection of wines from around the world in a clean little shop! Bottles to go or to enjoy there with a classic paired menu. Can't wait to go back!
Dave has curated an incredible selection. Every bottle is selected for it's region, the winemaking methods, and the winemakers themselves. He is super knowledge about every bottle in stock and a pretty cool guy all around. Also monthly wine club is a gem!
If you love wine, and want to learn more about it, and also enjoy tasty food, you need to check out FERM and fare. Dave, the owner, is extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about all of the wines we sampled. He is also an accomplished chef. This was evident in the food choices. The menu is small, but sophisticated and delicious, and pairs well with the wine offerings! My friend and I split the escargots, and the charcuterie board. I appreciate that Dave uses local ingredients whenever possible. I recently moved here from NYC, and this adorable little wine bar reminded me of the West Village, which is high praise indeed! The decor is clean and modern, while also being warm, friendly, and inviting. Come check out this little slice of wine heaven before it gets discovered by everyone else!
Dave did a great job explaining the wines. I told him we were after a Spanish or Portuguese wine, and what we like in a wine. We bought 2 Spanish wines he recommended, and opened the 2019 Matsu "El Picaro" temperanillo to have with our take out food from Barrio. He was spot on! It's a terrific wine for the $15 price point, and it doesn't taste nearly as young as it is.
