What a great spot. There’s a winery upstairs, and if you want a more intimate feel, you can head into the speakeasy located through the bookshelf on the one wall and down the stairs. I recommend making a reservation since it is not a huge spot and does get crowded. We tried 3 cocktails, and all were delicious. We had an old old-fashioned with the cherry smoke, a mango creme sorbet cocktail, and a s’more martini. Staff is friendly, seats are comfortable, and you really get the feeling of a speakeasy. We didn’t try the food, but I didn’t see some people with a charcuterie that looked delicious.

Accidentally found this place but so happy I did. Had to wait a few minutes for someone to come let me in the secret back entrance but then service was very quick and friendly. Great moody atmosphere and wine and cocktail selection was good. Had the charcuterie board which was nicely varied.

The most incredible (and only) speakeasy in the Finger Lakes.

After hours of driving, we knew we needed a cool spot to go to at night for some delicious wine. Of course, the Finger Lakes are KNOWN for wine so we’re just thinking we’re making reservations for a wine bar (with “speakeasy” vibes). Which that would’ve been totally cool with us.

After continuous back and forth, changing our reservations 50 million times, adding and taking people out, we finally made it to Vinifera on a Friday night and were super apologetic since we had to make yet another change.

The staff was absolutely incredible and accommodating, they made sure our party of 10 would be in the same room/table. The only “downfall” was that we’d have to share the room with another small party. Which was absolutely not a problem and we ended up being BFF’S with them by the end of the night.

We met the owner Jim – the most incredible human – and he took us down to the speakeasy (which passes right through a super secretive door in the back of the main room upstairs). Side note – the main room upstairs is a vibe on it’s own btw and we would’ve been absolutely fine and happy there. It’s an actual wine store and you can purchase all kind of local wines. Be sure to ask and get all the recommendations you want.

Not only did we get to enjoy an incredible time but we got a super cool VIP experience and learned the story and so much history about this place, the concept, the origin and what sparked the idea of creating it. That itself, was a treat.

On to the actual speakeasy experience. When you go downstairs (through that fun super cool super secretive door) – you’re instantly transported to another era, another time. It’s dark, it’s velvety, chandeliers, spiderwebs (the aesthetic kind, idk if there were actually any but it fit the vibe in my head), Leonardo Da Vinci, Mona Lisa, candles, curtains. There are two super cool rooms, one to the right (which is where our large party sat at) and one to the left – totally recommended for smaller groups, it’s cozy, it’s chill, you can interact and share with other guests too.

Just by this, I’m wowed. As if this wasn’t enough, the drinks were absolutely incredible. I ended up ordering some kind of a smoked drink and they happily substituted the regular old fashioned for mezcal. What a dream. Everyone was happy with their drink orders, some ordered some off the menu things and they happily made them – even though they technically only serve what’s on the menu. Wine flights are also available if you’re in the wine vibe.

Bottom line: we loved this place SO much, we came back 2 night’s later for our last night. We sat in the other room and absolutely loved and enjoyed it. I had a lavender drink and it was delish. This place is a GEM and you should absolutely check it out and support it if you’re in the area. If you’re not, well now you have a place I know you’ll love to go to!

My first speakeasy that I’ve ever been to and I’m obsessed! It’s a very mysterious sophisticated underworld type environment, but also cozy and welcoming. I’m looking forward to going again when the weather gets nice!

Such a cool spot! The Speakeasy is a small space so be sure to make reservations. But the vibe was cool and it’s decorated so cute too. Our drinks were great! I thought it was very reasonably priced at only $12 for speciality cocktails. All wine and spirits are locally sourced from NYS. Also, Kate was great! Excellent service.

If you are looking for above and beyond level service and quality, look no further. Vinifera and their staff were so incredibly accommodating for my friends and I during our board game night. I was honestly very worried I would not find a spot that would fit well for our small gathering, but this place was perfection. Their communication about our event was stellar. Always timely in their emails to me. Helpful advice for catering. Even offered charcuterie and desserts – delicious warm cookies. Not to mention the amazing cocktails. Negroni after Negroni was ordered. Oh and their seasonal cocktails were a great hit. I believe all of our guests were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed every detail they added for us. From the lighting to the curtains. Shoutout to Jim and staff! He provided seating for 10, to the extra tables for our pizza and games. And perfectly timed check-ins to see if we needed more drinks. If you are having a wedding in the area, I could see this being the perfect spot for a bachelor’s night or any sort of small to midsized event. Especially for guests that love a surprise. If I could give higher praise, I would. We will be coming back when we can.

What do you like?

Great ambiance? Come here
Great drinks? Come here
Friendly staff? Come here.

We took a quick look on Google and found this place and glad we did. We initially started out at the upstairs bar and had some great local wine. We met the owner and chatted about the area. He then invited us to the speakeasy which we were happy to do. You can’t beat the vibes and decor here along with the great drinks. Staff was helpful and made us feel very welcomed. Come here if you’re in the area.

We walked in the front door and were immediately met by Jim who was just so warm and wonderful!! The charcuterie board and cocktails were fantastic!! This will be a must stop when we visit the Finger Lakes.. what a GEM!!!

Such an amazing experience. Jim makes the best dirty martinis. Plus the S’mores martini down stairs is to DIE for.

My husband and I stumbled upon Vinifera while visiting Geneva. We enjoyed awesome cocktails and a desert board of homemade pastries and cookies. The owner and staff were very friendly and provided exceptional customer service!
