We have an extensive selection of Washington wines that are sure to delight your palate. At Bar Nicholas, we're all about discovering new and delicious drinks in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Whether you're in the mood for a craft cocktail, a refreshing beer, or a delightful glass of wine, we've got you covered.

Philosophy

Welcome to Bar Nicholas. We don’t just serve drinks — we invite you on a journey of discovery. Our menu is curated with the belief that everyone can find something to love, from a wide-ranging selection of beers, wines, whiskies, and liqueurs. But it’s not just about what’s in the glass — it’s about the story behind it. We take pride in researching and understanding every bottle we bring in and every cocktail we craft. At Bar Nicholas, we also encourage open-mindedness and curiosity. Whether it’s a modern twist on a classic cocktail or a newly released spirit, our bartenders are always ready to introduce you to something unexpected. And because we operate at no cost to our patrons, there’s every reason to step outside your usual routine and explore something new. So come on in, take a seat, and let us guide you. At Bar Nicholas, there’s always a new flavor to try and a story worth discovering.
