    We are new to Holly Springs and very excited to get to know Niche. We went there last night, sat at the bar and after a while left very disappointed. The bartender was too busy having a conversation with others customers sitting at the bar to acknowledge our presence and offer us drink. We left very disappointed.

    Anthony is amazing - we stopped here after passing it and thinking we should see what it’s about! We sat at the bar, he put up with our banter, had some great stories. They had live music, good bourbon, a massive wine selection, and a superb selection of other liquors. Highly recommend!

    Not sure what happened. We walked in at 11:20pm. The sign on the door said open and the hours say that it closes at 12:00. We approach the bar to get a drink and the bar tender looks at us like we're crazy and he tells us they're closed. There were people clearly drinking there. Maybe they were closing early..? We were very confused as we walked out and we turned the open sign to closed for them.

    What a great place to unwind, meet new folks and visit with old ones. The open mike nights are the best. Be sure to hear Lenny K and the Leftovers who appears often on Tuesday nights. A fabulous atmosphere to relax and sip your choice of a wide array of wines. Wine, friends, music and atmosphere…. perfect.

    Tried to go in today at 5:45pm and the door was locked. Couldn’t see a soul inside, yet the open sign was on. The times on the door, and on the website state that they open at 5pm. We’ve talked about trying this place often, so unfortunate that this was the night we chose. Would’ve been forgiven if there was a sign or something on the door stating a reason to not be open on time. For a small-town, local establishment likely supported by the community, we were surprised

    Excuse me, you are an angry man and you were that way when you could not find a FRENCH ROSE in you cooler. I kept telling you what I wanted, but you could not produce it. Telling me "You only know labels" when you obviously did not have what I was asking for, and insulting me with your stupid comment is unacceptable. It's ignorant, and bullying. Yes, cancel my "membership" now. I do not want to be associated with your establishment. Am I still pretending to be someone who visited your shop? DIDN'T THINK SO. Yeah, you are just MEAN Rude, angry, insulting bar tender. Lousy wine.

    If you are going for warm fuzzies...this might not be your jam. If you want a cool vibe, nice ambiance with great wine, this is a great spot. Don't get bent out of shape, Karen. He's abrasive and he knows it. But did you really come for him?

    I have been coming to this wine lounge for years and it never disappoints! There is such a great selection of wine and the staff always knows what to recommend. There are also great food trucks periodically, but they also allow outside food. You can sit at the bar or on a comfy couch or chair! There is also live music on Fridays and they are usually pretty good! Would recommend to anyone who loves wine!

    My favorite place to be! I'm certain this is the largest selection of wine and beer around. You're in good hands if you're unsure what you want... these bartenders know their stuff!

    Nice, comfortable local wine, beer, and spirits hangout. The bartender Anthony is friendly and makes great wine and alcohol suggestions. Live music most nights. One of our favorite places to unwind after a long day at work.

    This place was pretty good when we went a while back (though they don't have menus and you're just supposed to describe what you want and the bartender will pick something out for you?), but when we tried to go back this weekend, before we could order, they wanted us to fill out a "private club application" with all of our personal info, and pay a $1 membership fee. Apparently they just got their liquor license, and since they don't sell food, they have to be a "private club" under NC law. We declined and went somewhere else.

    Was passing by and stopped in to check the place out as it had been awhile since I had been there. I ended up staying for a glass of Pinot Noir. Such a comfy cozy place. I had a lovely time by myself.

    It's like cheers, but the drinks are better. The staff are very personable. Overall great experience.

  • 4/5 Matisse E Ventura B. 5 years ago on Google
    There's no menu, just the wine manager who asks you a bunch of food questions and picks a wine for you to try. It's awesome. I only drink malbecs and she gave me a malbec just from my food answers without me even telling her that. It's an old house w a cool vibe & comfortable setting.

  • 5/5 Sally P. 1 year ago on Google
    They have every bottle of wine imaginable ready to pour a glass for you and often there's live piano or bands playing here too. Plenty of whiskey also. Nice back deck and front deck too with plenty of seating. It's an old house so it has a cozy feeling like you're just hanging out with friends. And the owner shows up to spend time here too! 😁

    Cozy wine bar with indoor and outdoor seating with a wide selection of wine, beer, and cider. Owner(?)/bartender was knowledgeable and eager to find just the right wine for you. Locals were also a lot of fun to talk to!

    Okay, felt bad for the last review. Clearly there is currently a roach problem! Hopefully that will be fixed! Thought it was a cozy place that had some great free food. There was live music. Was have a good time with friends. Will still not go back.

  • 4/5 Michael S. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice wine bar. There are a lot of small cozy places if you would like to just be with your friends. There is both indoor and outdoor seating areas. Service is very good. Wine knowledge is even better. If you go there with a friend but you would rather have a craft beer they have a good selection of Craft beers as well.
