Jones Winery is one of my new favorites in CT! I went for the first time the other day, and…read moreinitially went to the wrong place! Keep in mind that there is a "Jones Family Farm Pumpkinseed Hill" at 120 Beardsley Rd., and then the "Jones Valley Farm/Jones Winery" at 606 Walnut Tree Rd. My GPS accidentally took me to the Pumpkinseed Farm at first, but it wasn't a big deal because the winery is just a few minutes away. Once I was in the right place, a staff member greeted me and gave me the wine/food menu. They have a lot of different areas to sit, including a patio with tables/umbrellas (where they had live music playing), a pavilion with tables underneath, an upper patio that was covered by a pergola with leaves/vines on top, and an inside bar area with seating. The inside bar area has garage doors that were open, leading out to the upper patio. Even though it was a hot day, I sat under the pergola and it was surprisingly cool underneath! After sitting down, a staff member quickly came over and took my drink/food order. I tried a glass of the Sunshine White, which was delicious! It was on the sweeter side though. Keep in mind that they only sell wine by the glass on the menu, but they do have a store where you can buy bottles to go. I also ordered the Simply Cheese Plate, which came with sharp cheddar cheese, Jones Berry Chutney, and sea salt crackers. This was excellent! They also do have a "Light Fare" menu with things like a hummus plate, cheesecake, popcorn, etc. The service was fast and the staff were friendly. They had a "Bouquet Bar" set up where you could buy fresh cut flowers, as well as a small gift shop. Overall a very cool winery in Shelton, I would definitely recommend!

You can check their website for the field locations for picking, call their number for the daily crop report, and make your reservation online. We usually get the large berry box. It is quite large and takes my family of 4 adults a long time to pick, so take that into consideration when deciding what sized basket/box you get. In addition, since the large box can fit so much, be prepared to bake with your fruit or feed many hungry guests!

This bulk store has coffee roasting, fresh nut butters, local honey, vinegars, bulk baking (including GF) and so much more! We love their focus and mission on sustainability- You can shop using the mason jars and return them the next time to have them cleaned. Every Saturday if you go into the store, you'll catch their coffee roasting in action, which is always cool to see. They offer a wide variety of gift options and packaging, which I couldn't recommend more upcoming celebrations. They will help you create it or you can put it together yourself too. There is plenty of parking and they have later hours so you can swing by after work (located right off of the Main Street).

It's a fun place and bring your appetite. The people who run it are quite cool as well. I really dig places like this, that have a distinct character. Don't get me wrong, chain restaurants are great too and have their place but sometimes one wants a place that is different. They have oodles of specialty hot sauces..my favorite is the Rip Roarin Hot Sauce. I really cannot come here all that much because I do have some (minor) food allergies but I treat myself once in awhile. You can also view what foods they have to offer through their online website.

They seem to be constantly out of things, poor selection of produce, minimal organic meats, and overall not well stocked in comparison to other Aldi's in the local area. It is such a bummer considering this is the closest to my house and the most convenient to come to. It also has a very big parking lot, which is also a nice feature of this location. On my most recent visit on a Wednesday in the early afternoon, I left not buying anything when I could see they were out of multiple items I had hoped to purchase. Bread minimally stocked, produce area a mess, no organic meats, and no pickles?!!! Hopefully this Aldi location will get better, but I am not sure if I'm willing to waste my time trying it again. I think I will drive to the further location....

I'm going to be fair here and preface this with the fact that I haven't been back to this place in…read morequite some time. Nothing much has changed... it is still cash or check, which back in 2017 didn't really phase me... but I'm pretty surprised this hasn't changed. I knew the menu prices could never have been what they were nearly 7 years ago but I was surprised even when taking this into account. A chicken parm sandwich plus a peace tea (which really should be somewhere between $0.99 and $1.99) ended up at $18.35. I was totally floored. The $6 sandwich (+ toppings) has nearly tripled in price. $2 per extra topping? I really can't fathom $2 for a little bit of some topping (onions, peppers, whatever). I know things are different but it isn't like I've been under a rock for 7 years. A chicken parm grinder depending on where you go is about $8-$12. I can name 5 delis off the top of my head that can back this up. Let's get to the sandwich itself. It was bad. Way too much breading and soggy. So so soggy. This sandwich had been wrapped up for less than 10 minutes and I nearly pulled out a fork and knife to eat it. I'm so sad. I gave this place 5 stars before. I won't be returning I'm sorry to say. PS: He wasn't the nicest either. I know you don't work for free. But I do have a right to ask about the price.
