    left: spicy pineapple marg right: sangria
    Kate W.

    cute little spot. Apparently they have really good espresso martinis. I don't like espresso martinis, so I did not get that. I went with My usual, a spicy Marg. I switched it up, though, and Got their pineapple spicy Marg. I thought it was yummy. Perfect balance of citrus and spice. I don't know if the pineapple shined through very well, but it was a yummy drink. Lovely presentation too. Love their patio space. They sell hotdog too, which is kind of silly perfect vibes for getting a drink post to work or celebrating finishing the work week. their workers were super friendly, and made our drinks quickly.

    I was meeting up some friends and they happen to be at Karma brew. Inside it's super cute and it's decorated very different. I don't know how to explain it but I like it. It has a patio in the front . The restroom is outside you need a key but it's not far and it was clean as well . The young man that helped us was very nice and attentive you order at the front and get your drinks there also . I got the Karma French 75 a twist of the original French 75 good classic drink . Our other friends got the beers and they really enjoyed the beers there as well. Overall, we had a great time there we stayed way overdue, but we were having a great time having a great conversation and good drinks. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    I came here for the very first time with my friend to celebrate her birthday. Ever since I stopped drinking in 2019 I don't get out to bar as much but I'm glad we stopped in to check this one out because it's so cute inside. Very whimsical. I was honestly surprised at the variety of drinks and very happy that they were able to make me a mocktail. Service was good and quick too! It's small inside, but I enjoyed sitting across from the bar downstairs and getting to take everything in! There is also an upstairs area that has more seating and a bathroom. There is a bar upstairs, but it's not staffed. I don't live far so I walked to this bar, but it's midtown parking so you may have to drive around a bit, but a spot isn't usually too far.

    Cutes bar with great decor! Just like many of the reviews - the espresso Martini is a MUST. It was strong but not overpowering. Located in midtown, Sacramento. This bar is in the corner and has an indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff. We came on a Saturday evening and found seats indoor.

    Crème brûlée

    This was one of the two bars stop that we did with Sac Brew Bike Company (which was a lot of fun btw). This bar was adorable and small and so many fun and interesting things to look at and browse inside. Wow! The collection of art and eclectic items - even a cuckoo clock! It felt a bar one would find abroad. We got a couple of drinks and decided to try their creme brûlée which didn't disappoint - that was yummy!!

    Amazing service at Karma. My friends and I love Karma Brew. We have never had a negative experience here. Tonight we were given these amazing desserts by Baby! Baby is such a wonderful bartender and always makes us feel welcome. We all got the Pineapple Mules and they were delicious. I would highly recommend coming in for food or drinks. This place is the best! The ambiance is wonderful as well. It's overall a great place to come at any time.

    Just want to add to my previous review to note how wonderful the staff here are! My friends and I came back to close out our night and the staff recognized us. We had some snacks with us from our plans earlier in the night and offered them to our bartender. After we received our drinks, we went upstairs to hang out and enjoy. About half an hour later, Baby brought us two different desserts on the house! They were a melted chocolate lava cake and a slice of tuxedo cake, and both were delicious. He mentioned they would be adding them to the menu soon. Huge thank you to the folks here for making our night special!!

    Love the vibe of this bar. I came with some friends for drinks & we left happy. Seating was limited inside (might need to add more cushions or passing to the seats), but there's more seating outside. Bathroom is also located outside. Bartender was friendly too.

    Really cool atmosphere! Good beer and cocktail menu! A happy and immersive place. Service was great- friendly and helpful!

    The coziest spot for hanging out with your friends. The vibes are always great. I especially come here during winter because I love their hot toddies, mulled wine & espresso martinis. Despite my rare appearance the workers always recognize me. The owner truly cares about his customers, and is very attentive. The community here is friendly customer wise. There's a good mix of people from different age groups, and I have always felt welcome which is a special feeling considering how many bars I've gone to in Sacramento. 10/10 recommend! Support this business always!

    Had a great time at Karma brew, a cozy little cocktail bar. They make the best espresso martinis in sac! Also love their outdoor patio area. Great spot for catching up with friends :)

    Espresso martini
    Parysa A.

    I've never been a fan of espresso martinis but I was told by multiple people this place had the best ones in Sac so I had to give it a try. They were indeed correct! It was delicious and tasted like I have always hoped an espresso martini would. The unique ambience is also a plus. Will definitely be back to try more drinks.

I also joined the two bottle membership, which gives me and three guests complimentary tastings. The wine is outstanding, balanced, high quality, and clearly crafted by people who know what they are doing. I live off the olive oil , oh yea the also do olive oil tasting and the quality is superb! Visiting the main tasting room next to Cache Creek is always an excellent experience. The staff is welcoming, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the overall vibe makes it easy to spend an afternoon enjoying great food and wine. The shop is filled with gifts and charm! Highly recommended!

The Vine is in Old Folsom across from restaurants and bars, making it an ideal spot to possibly start a girls night or date night at if you wanted to walk around after.

The worker was really nice, we were able to sample different wines, and he was helpful in answering questions we had. The inside is clean, there's bar seating, tables, a small couch area, and seats in the window if you wanna people watch. The wine we tried was really good, I really liked their more tart white wines and the sparkling blue champagne. The inside was also nice and air conditioned which helped with the hot weather outside.

There were a decent amount of vegetarian options to choose from. Wines were delicious and very smooth. The presentation of the food was great and it tasted flavorful and fresh. Since it is tapas style, the portion size is small. The bill with tip came out to be $120 which we felt was a bit steep for the three of us considering the small portion sizes and the fact that we left the restaurant still feeling a little hungry. This would be a great date spot and I would consider coming back for happy hour.
