Our Story

"I started Revival Wine and Dessert Bar to create a warm, welcoming space where elegance meets comfort—where every glass poured and every dessert plated tells a story. After years of teaching culinary arts and nourishing minds and palates alike, I felt called to build something of my own—something rooted in tradition but alive with creativity.”

Revival is housed in a 170-year-old mansion in downtown Fayetteville—a place full of soul and stories, just like the wines and desserts we serve. It felt like the perfect setting for what I envisioned: a haven where people could slow down, share meaningful conversation, and enjoy the simple pleasures of good food, good wine, and genuine hospitality.

More than anything, Revival is about connection. It’s about honoring the craft behind every detail, celebrating the small moments, and offering guests a space to gather, to toast, and to treat themselves. In a fast-moving world, Revival invites people to pause, to savor, and to feel at home. And I’m so proud to share it with my community"
