Hummingbird Wine Bar — Restaurant in Tallahassee

A Hidden Gem for Wine Lovers and Food Enthusiasts

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Hummingbird Wine Bar, and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between cozy and sophisticated—dim lighting, warm accents, and a welcoming sense of nature..

The wine list is clearly curated with care, featuring a well-rounded selection of both familiar favorites and intriguing finds. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to ask about our preferences before offering a few thoughtful suggestions. We ended up trying a bottle of Valliant which was absolutely perfect—smooth, nuanced, and paired beautifully with our charcuterie board.

Speaking of the food: the charcuterie selection was exceptional. Each component—from the creamy, tangy cheeses to the expertly sliced cured meats—was fresh and high quality. I especially appreciated the attention to detail: house-made spreads, edible flowers with just the right amount of bite, and fresh, crusty bread that held up well to all the toppings.

What made the evening stand out even more was the service. Attentive without being overbearing, the staff made us feel like regulars, even though it was our first visit. They genuinely seemed to enjoy what they do, and that energy added to the overall charm of the place.

Whether you’re looking for a low-key date night spot or a cozy place to catch up with friends over a glass (or two) of wine, Hummingbird Wine Bar hits the mark. We are already looking forward to...

This is my favorite local wine shop and bar. All of the staff is well versed and eager to recommend wines that I might like. I almost never order from the menu - favoring their recommendations. Their patio is the best in town to have a glass with a girlfriend or bringing your dog! It truly is a "family" as they get to know you and your tastes.

The food is great! Their homemade pickles and pimento cheese are my most FAVORITE thing ever!! You absolutely have to try their Taco Tuesday with their rotating tacos made on homemade flour or corn tortillas.

They have a phenomenal wine club so you can get wines at a great value and also have an online bottle shop to get that special bottle for a celebration or a friend.

Their tastings and events are always fun and never stuffy. They truly welcome all levels of people that just like to drink wine.

Finally, if you are interested in a private party, they have been great to work with!! You can buy out the bar or just do a special private tasting. A great teambuilder or...

After reading the many positive reviews of this place, my friends and I were excited to try it. However, the service and pricing was disappointing. The $16 and $24 cheeseboards have the same amount of food, and while tasty were sparse. The wine was okay but not remarkable, and we chose without any help or assistance from the server. While pleasant, our server bluntly asked if we were going to order another drink or if we wanted the checks (after less than an hour in a nearly empty bar). A half glass of wine and small cheeseboard was $33 before tip. I won't be returning.

Edit: The reason we believed the more expensive boards had more food was because the lower cost options were labelled "snack" or "basic" boards. The pictures on the website show several slices of each cheese on the preview to the food menu, while my board had one triangle slice for one type of cheese and two triangle slices for another. I have bought some of these cheese before, and still don't feel the price point...
