Barrel & Vine — Restaurant in Hackensack

Barrel & Vine is a real gem tucked away in Hackensack. Whether you’re a local or just passing through lake country, it’s worth the stop. The atmosphere is cozy but stylish—think cabin-chic meets wine bar—with friendly staff and a laid-back, welcoming vibe.

The wine list is surprisingly impressive for a small town, and they often have some unexpected bottles you wouldn’t find elsewhere in the area. Craft cocktails are also strong contenders if wine isn’t your thing.

Live music nights add to the charm, especially on weekends. It gets busy in the summer, so either go early if you can.

All in all, Barrel & Vine is a great spot for date night, a chill hang with friends, or just a glass of something good after a day...

I like this place. A lot. We have Been there multiple times. This is considered a premium whiskey and scotch place. I was impressed to see lagavulin scotch on the shelf. It was 11 year though. You gotta have 16 year in a premium establishment.,There is a big difference. Charge more if you need to. I would not care. I enjoy Scotch like many other people. It is usually on the rocks. Don’t measure by pouring into a shot glass first. Should be poured right over the rock or rocks. One thousand one, one thousand 2. Just a recommendation for a very nice place....

First class all the way around. We tried several different drinks, and everyone was spot on. The drink prices are very reasonable. Very cozy atmosphere. It would be a wonderful place to have a private party. We will most definitely make it a go-to place for a quiet...
