I love this place and keep coming back. It's has some of my favorite things all in one place: flowers, charcuterie and wine. The vibe is always great and love that it's dog friendly. The membership is also a huge perk!

Cork and Stem is the best experience. They have a large selection of wines from small grower - producers on the west coast and beyond. They also have the cutest flower bar to build your own bouquet! We came for a wine tasting and stayed for lunch. Had the charcuterie and Italian panini sandwich and both were incredible. The owner Jenna is extremely passionate about customer service and making sure everyone is having a great time, while also educating her customers on wine. Her and her staff are very welcoming. I would recommend Cork & Stem for a date night, Girls day, or any event you want a cute place to celebrate!

There aren't words enough to review our WONDERFUL experience here at Cork & Stem for our company Holiday Party last weekend. Jenna and her team (Chloe & Eric) were the utmost is hosts with the most! They made our event stress free, fun, and the perfect setting for Holiday Magic Memories. Planning - Jenna is so easy to work with, responsive, and detail oriented. She was flexible in breaking down our options within our budget. As a smaller group we didn't think we could afford a private event space, but C&S has a much lower food and beverage minimum than more than 4 dozen other venues I checked out. Food & Beverage - Cost. The cost for an event (be it private or semi) is almost wholly applied through your purchases, with the space fee being less than a few hundred dollars (rated per hour). This for us was a huge win. - Beverages. They offer a wide range of bar options (wine, beer, non alcoholic) in house. we opted for an open bar style so that guests could pick what they wanted. But you can work with the team o select a specific level (ex: house) or buy a certain number of bottles. If you are concerned about hitting a minimum the venue is flexible in allowing you to purchase - Food. They had a fabulous menu of grazing boards, mini desserts, flatbreads, and more they offer in house (priced per person). I liked that you did not have to order each item for the whole estimated guest count, but could distribute across your options). We opted to do a partial catering order from a local restaurant for a small buffet (we wanted to make sure a few dietary restrictive guests were included had a heavier meal feeling). There was a small per person fee for this, but Jenna and team were amazing in setting up the food for us (they allowed us to bring in warming chafing dishes). Environment/Experience - Layout. The layout was wonderful to encourage mingling with the front having decor and a small lounge area, the wrap around bar and the back half which consisted of: buffet setup, dining area, and the small stage area. We didn't really use the outdoor patio for our small group but it is available and I imagine in warmer weather would be an amazing flex space for an event. - Technology. They allowed us to use a projector and screen for our interactive live photo wall we did for the event. - Ambience. We sent in a playlist ahead of time that they played for us so that the mood was perfect. - Fun Stuff. One of their most UNIQUE offerings is that they have a customizable flower wall where guests can create bouquets of varying sizes & contents based on your per person budget (which can also count towards a spend minimum). Jenna even gave us the option with the Holidays to do both a flower bouquet option and a wreath making option for our guest so they could choose. EVERYONE was so excited for this and it created a unique interactive element of the evening. I cannot say this enough, book this venue! You will not regret it.
