Winston-Salem
A neighborhood gathering place on East 4th Street where the coffee is poured with care and the cocktails are made slow.
About Us
Fair Witness Fancy Drinks opened its doors on East 4th Street as a simple idea: a space that feels like yours. Not a stopover, not a scene — just a room where you can settle in, have a proper drink, and be treated like a neighbor.
By day, it's a café — pour-over coffee, fresh pastries, the quiet hum of morning conversation. By night, the same space becomes something softer and darker, with cocktails built around season and spirit. The same bar. A different rhythm.
We source our beans locally when we can, our spirits with intention, and our ice with more care than most places give anything at all.
Atmosphere
Two moods, one room.
Soft light, good music, and the kind of quiet that makes a morning feel longer. Work, read, or simply sit with a coffee and watch the street wake up.
Lower lights, deeper conversation. The same space finds a different pulse after dark — cocktails poured slowly, music turned down, the evening unfolding.
