Whether you’re strolling through Saratoga Springs or visiting from afar, Familiar Creature is here to be your go-to spot for great food, soulful wines, and good company. We keep it casual, welcoming, and full of energy—just how a neighborhood wine bar should be.

We’re starting you off with something fun to drink, whether it’s a crisp glass of wine, a creative cocktail, or something non-alcoholic but just as delicious. Our kitchen, led by Chef Michele Hunter (a ‘Chopped’ winner and former executive chef at Hamlet & Ghost), is turning out ingredient-driven small plates inspired by French and Quebecois flavors.

We’ve put together an exciting collection of wines, spirits, and fermented beverages, and we can’t wait to share them with you.
