Kindred is a fun, funky wine bar in Saratoga Springs, NY, that celebrates small-batch wine producers, craft cocktails, and beer. Guests can enjoy shareable plates prepared in traditional wood ovens right in the dining room.
Live Fire, Spirited Nights at Kindred
Sitting around a fire—eating, drinking, and enjoying good company—has long been a foundation of a happy life. Kindred carries that idea into its kitchen, where cooking with live fire is a driving philosophy, not just a technique. Preparing food over an open flame rewards simplicity and authenticity, drawing out the vibrant flavor of each ingredient.
Two wood-fired hearths sit in the center of Kindred's dining room, so chefs and guests can gather around the same fire and take part in the experience together.
Boutique Wine, Cocktails, and Deserving Fare
Kindred highlights small-batch producers who use traditional methods with minimal additives. Wine lovers can choose from a wide selection of small-batch sparkling, rosé, white, and red wines sourced from the Finger Lakes to France.
Craft cocktails and beer round out a menu built around small, shareable plates. The cocktail menu features original creations such as the Smoked Sazerac with rye whiskey and the "I Don't Carrot All" with vodka and carrot juice.
Kindred also welcomes private and semi-private parties. Guests can contact Kindred at sonja@kindredsaratoga.com to plan an event.
A Chef Prepared Menu
Kindred offers a diverse menu of snacks, shareables, flatbreads, salads, and entrees.
Starters include marinated olives and chicken liver pâté. Shareables range from a chef's cheese and charcuterie board to crispy Brussels sprouts and wood-fired calamari.
Flatbreads and fresh salads round out the lighter fare, while entree options include market pasta with cavatelli and brown butter, or the teres major steak with crispy fingerlings. The menu is built to offer something for every palate.
