About Cellar 55

Cellar 55 is a wine tasting room and bar in Fuquay Varina, North Carolina, a fast-growing town just south of Raleigh in Wake County.

Services & Process

Cellar 55 operates as both a wine tasting room and a wine and beer bar, which means you can come in for a structured tasting or simply sit down with a glass and unwind. The wine bar format lets you explore a broad range of wines by the glass without committing to a full bottle, which is great for trying something new. The beer bar component adds flexibility for groups where not everyone is a wine drinker. The combination makes it genuinely welcoming to a wider crowd than a traditional winery tasting room.

Service Area

Cellar 55 is located in Fuquay Varina, NC, and draws guests from across southern Wake County. Holly Springs, Apex, and Angier residents are all within a short drive, and it's an easy stop for anyone commuting south of Raleigh. The location makes it one of the most accessible wine bars in the area for Triangle residents who live outside the city.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cellar 55 a winery that makes its own wine?
Cellar 55 operates primarily as a wine tasting room and bar rather than an estate winery, meaning it focuses on serving and curating wines rather than producing them on-site. That format lets the team offer a wider variety of wines than a single estate winery typically would.
Does Cellar 55 serve craft beer as well as wine?
Yes, and that's one of the things that sets it apart from a standard wine bar. The beer selection gives the spot a broader appeal for groups with mixed drink preferences.
Is Cellar 55 a good date night spot in Fuquay Varina?
It's one of the better options in the area for a low-key, enjoyable evening out. The wine bar atmosphere keeps things relaxed without being stuffy, and the staff can help guide your choices if you're not sure where to start.
Can I host a private event or small gathering at Cellar 55?
Wine and beer bars like Cellar 55 often accommodate small private parties or buyouts, especially on quieter nights. Reach out to the team at (919) 446-1156 to ask about options for your event.
Do I need a reservation to visit the tasting room?
Walk-ins are generally welcome at wine bars, but calling ahead is smart if you're coming with a group or visiting on a busy Friday or Saturday night. A quick call to (919) 446-1156 can confirm current capacity and any reservation requirements.
What's the difference between ordering a tasting flight and a glass by the glass?
A tasting flight gives you small pours of several wines so you can compare them side by side and find what you like best. Ordering by the glass is better if you already know what you want or just want to relax with a single wine rather than work through a structured tasting.
