When Bar la Fête opened its doors this past September, we were impressed. A classy parisian-inspired wine bar in downtown Birmingham? Ooh lala! Well, word of this chic spot has officially spread—Bar La Fête just made Robb Report’s list of the 25 most beautiful restaurants in the US in 2022. 

About Bar La Fête

As we all experienced during the pandemic, the restaurant industry struggled, leading to many closures near and far. When things finally calmed down in 2022, openings of restaurants and bars became abundant.

On the list of 2022 openings was Bar La Fête. Located at Mercantile on Morris, the wine bar is owned by Executive Pastry Chef Kristen Hall and Executive Chef Victor King of The Essential and Bandit Pâtisserie.

Here’s what you’ll discover when you visit:

• French wines with local guest sommeliers offering tastings + personalized pairing recommendations
• High-end spirits + local craft beers
• French-inspired plates with a variety of cheese + pâté
