Archer Modena

Came here 4 times while in Modena. Consistently perfect. Great service, wonderful atmosphere, amazing wines and delicious small bites.

I know its sounds strange but I have been there 1 year ago,Archer in Modena is undeniably a stunning venue with a fantastic concept. The design is modern and sophisticated, creating an atmosphere that immediately draws you in and sets high expectations. Unfortunately, the service completely ruins what could have been a remarkable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were dismissive and, frankly, rude. There was no warm welcome, no acknowledgment of our presence for several minutes, despite the venue not being overwhelmingly busy at the time. When we finally flagged someone down, we were met with curt responses and an obvious lack of interest in helping us. Simple requests, such as water for the table or clarification about the menu, were met with eye rolls and sighs, as if we were inconveniencing them by asking. The disorganization was evident, but what made it worse was the sheer lack of courtesy and care. It felt as though we were being rushed through the experience. Any attempts to provide feedback were brushed off with a dismissive attitude, leaving us feeling unwelcome and frustrated. While Archer in Modena is visually impressive and has an innovative concept, the appallingly rude and unprofessional service casts a dark shadow over the entire experience. Until there is a significant improvement in how staff interact with guests, I cannot recommend this place. A stunning venue deserves better, and so do its patrons.

Nice space in a charming street with a lot of potential but unfortunately service by the male bartender was very dismissive and cold. I think the place would do much better if it had more attentive staff that had some Interest in talking about wine options, after all this is a wine bar. Options per glass are expensive and limited. There are much better options in town for wine bars. A few responses to reviews that I read from the owner are very immature which demonstrates the culture of the place.

We passed by today, and surprisingly behind a dark door we found a beautifully decorated wine bar. Food was really tasty, and there is large variety of wines. Great atmosphere , we enjoyed a glass of Chianti and a glass of Nabbiolo, alongside a dish of starchino chees with potatoes, and a Bacala with purée and olives. For dessert we shared 'zuppa Englese' which is a local sweet pudding, it was not too sweet which was great. Totally recommend

This is a great place to buy a bottle of natural wine to go. You can also have a glass or a cocktail as well. We had a cocktail with some local meats, that were sliced freshly. It was delicious.

Simple outsourcing! Exquisite well selected dishes, my favorites starters: the Parmesan and Modena touch, cod fish, charcurtery a delicious blend of Parma, mortadella and salami Pinot noir and their house drink Archer sprit Loved the atmosphere and excellent service!

Popped by for a brief visit and had the most wonderful rose brut with Lambrusco grapes… great little outdoor seating area on a beautiful street and the indoor area was very cute as well! Wish we had more time!!!

Looooved the concept! Seat outside on the afternoon or inside later at night. Amazing selection and cocktails, and a cozy vibe with the owner checking things out. Best bar in the area, beautiful setting and curated options. Great for aperitivo time.
