If you are looking for a great, kid-free escape, why not go somewhere you simply can’t go with the kids… like a bar! VoVina’, right off the marina parking lot in downtown Kirkland, is a martini and wine tasting martini bar that will make you feel like you’ve escaped – whether you stop in for a quick drink or stay for the night.

VoVina’ claims to be the Eastsides’ premier relaxation destination, and they could be right. When you walk in to this small, intimate bar, the warm wood, subdued lighting, glowing fire and unique gathering spaces make you feel instantly welcome. The place is at once old school, with a prominent , inviting bar, and unique with its modern, artistic flair and lounge-like seating.

As you’d expect, the drink menu is extensive and the bartender is both friendly and fabulous. Perhaps less expected, there is a large food menu featuring appetizers, tapas, sandwiches, salads, pizzas and more. It’s a much more sophisticated take on good, old bar food. Happy Hour specials are offered daily from 4-6 and additional specials are offered each week, including 20% off bottles of wine for women on Wednesdays.

So next time you need to get out, keep it simple and stop in for a relaxing visit to Vo Vina’. Sit by the fire, pull up to the bar or wine and dine al fresco. Either way, chances are it will be a great escape.
