Barley & Bine is a restaurant located on the south end of Windsor (near Russian River Brewing). We have a small kitchen operating with convection ovens, induction burners, food warmers and a 3 sink system. We do not have a flat top, fryer, hood fan or commercial dishwasher. We do however crank out tasty food in a fun and efficient work environment. The menu consists of street tacos, soft pretzels, tater tots in multiple forms, flatbread pizzas, salads & wraps. We make as much as we can from scratch and welcome all new ideas and creativity with the menu.
