If you keep following the windy, twisty roads off the interstate, you will be rewarded upon your arrival. The winery has multiple areas to enjoy, including a barrel room with live music, a tasting room, a patio adorned with pizza, ovens, and lots of vineyards to wander through. There is a verse and well stocked menu with plenty of drink options. Their wine is some of the best I've had in the area and is an example of how good a Pinot Noir from Oregon can be. The people who work there are very welcoming and friendly, and made me feel right at home. They have good knowledge of their wines and offerings and have plenty of smiles to hand out. Their flight is affordably priced, and the poor is enough that you can really get a sense for what the wine taste like. Come with Friends, go by yourself, bring a dog, either way you arrive you are welcome read more

It was a lovely day at the vineyard. Staff were friendly, helpful & efficient. Seated outside, I could hear (and feel & smell) the wood-fired stove behind me, and look out into the vines. I enjoyed the flight (5-one ounce pours they pre-selected)...I guess that's the loss of a star--while I thoroughly enjoyed the flight, I had no choice in the pours. The pizza was delish!!! Service impeccable. A stroll through the vines was peaceful. They have a wine club--two tiers available, see the website for options & details. Shipping available. read more

It appears Ankeny is experiencing growing pains. I know "pickup weekend" will be busy, but we waited for two hours for a pizza that never arrived. Server said, "Sorry, I put the order in twice. Do you still want it?" We were tired of waiting and definitely didn't want to wait another hour, so we declined. This was our third time in a row of subpar service (the others weren't quite poor enough to warrant reviews, and everyone can have a bad day) but three strikes and ... we're taking a break from our membership. Maybe they'll grow into the next tier of winery and fix the service problems. Time will tell. The wine and food is still very good, thus the three stars. It's just gotten inconvenient to go there quarterly and be disappointed with the service. read more

Ankeny Vineyard - The pizza was seriously so good. Perfectly thin and lots of flavor. This was our first time and we will definitely be back! - Wineries Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I love this place! What a great vibe. Ankeny is tucked back behind a great twisty country road drive, so be sure to have your DD planned out when you go. We live in Albany and this is just a quick drive north from our place. The staff here are beyond great! So helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. And the wine of course . We love our dark red wind so always lean towards those when we visit, but Ankeny can actually win me over with some of their whites too. There is a style for everyone to try, it's not all Pinots! From sweet whites to dark reds and even dessert wines, there is a perfect wine for everyone here. The pizzas are amazing. Try their seasonal options for a super unique pizza treat, the flavor pairings ( sweet and salty, just the right texture) are always on point. Grape and balsamic vinegar!? This is our new go-to when we have visitors for a unique and tasty Oregon, Willamette Valley treat. read more

Nice wine tasting at this picturesque winery. Tasting was $12 per person. Purchase of 2 bottles waives one tasting fee. We enjoyed the wood-fired pizzas and tasty Caesar salad along with our wine. Easy parking and friendly staff. read more

Ankeny Vineyard is in a wonderful location, slightly out of town and so peaceful. The staff at this location are extremely attentive, knowledgeable and passionate which makes the experience that much better! I have been here a handful of times, and they are accommodating to large groups, as well as small parties or families! read more

We had another awesome night at Ankeny last night. We were able to see the Leanne McClellan Band and loved their music! We also had delicious pizza and wine. What more could you ask for a on a Saturday night? Thank you for making such a great date night experience for me and my husband. read more

Passing through the area and decided to stop in. Dog friendly was a plus! We enjoyed a lovely afternoon on the patio with our pup and wine tasting. All appropriate COVID precautions in place and service was great! read more

Such an amazing winery. Great wine, delicious pizza, friendly staff, and dog friendly!

04/15/23 - Nikki Jones Band hosts a CD release party at Ankeny Vineyard. This is a well-appointed location in the South Salem hills, with plenty of parking. I personally drank no wine but they did have a nice lager beer. I will however mention Bunker Hill Road, a memorably steep, unpaved and unlit stretch of road you will need to traverse to get in and out of this place. read more

We love this little gem nestled in the hills just southeast of Independence. Their wine never disappoints! The Pinot Noir has become one of my favorites. The wood fired pizzas are to die for! They have a special every week using ingredients from local farmers so you know everything is fresh! They are following the COVID-19 rules & regulations. Tables are at least 6 feet apart and all staff members were wearing masks. We felt very safe and will definitely be going back soon! read more

Come for the wine, stay for the pizza. Seriously, this is the most outstanding artisan pizza I've found. Order a whole one for yourself! The wines are also solid, though if this was just a tasting room, it wouldn't particularly stand out from the crowd. The beautiful views, obvious love of local history, and "welcome to our family" attitude make this the perfect spot for a romantic evening or a chill get-together with some friends. Seriously though, unless you want the evening to turn ugly, get a full pizza each, because you won't be able to stop eating it. read more

I'm not one to leave bad reviews but this place left me speechless. As someone who partially own a winery and works in the industry it's disgusting to be chased out by an employee regarding tip. I'm disappointed in the behavior staff had displayed regarding the wine pickup. Will not be coming back here and will be canceling membership. There are better winery's in the region to visit and be a member of. read more

Great space, service and pizza options ! Literally every person there has a smile and I can tell they enjoy working for Ankeny. read more

We were treated incredibly rudely last night by a female staff member who stood by our table for about 5 minutes harassing us, insisting that a cat who used to come visit our home wasn't the same cat that showed up at their winery a couple months back. Desi moved away from our neighborhood also a couple months back. Another lady actually told me the name of the cat, Desi...SAME CAT. I'm not sure why this rude lady cared so much but I have video of her arguing with me about the identity of the cat. She just kept going on and on. It was absolutely absurd. At one point she told me that if I got bit in the face, I'd deserve it. She insisted that their cat didn't like to be held (I held her for 5 minutes straight while this lady was harassing us). I offered to show this rude lady photos on my phone but she didn't want to see them. Here they are. It's terribly unprofessional to harass your guests. Ankeny would be better off without this abrasive, rude person on staff. read more

Great service and wine! They have a menu with lots of amazing food and a fantastic outdoor space!

I think it depends on the day, whenever I visit it's pretty busy. Their foods sound amazing, I would say it's my second favorite pizza place. A small selection of wines, but great flavor. The customer service is timely, but never feels personable. Almost feels like a burden when I've visited. read more

Heard from a friend that live music would be out here and so I thought I would give it a go! Beautiful little place. Very lively. The food came out quickly, it was fresh and delicious! (I had a chicken Caesar salad). The waitress suggested the Melange Blanc to pair. It was a lovely white wine on the sweeter side and paired well with not only the food but the lovely summer evening. People were extremely friendly. The biggest recommendation I can make is call ahead for reservations if you want to catch the music. And make them earlier so you can enjoy the music for longer. Can't wait to come back with my friends! read more

Ankeny Vineyard - Chicken Caesar Salad with their Melange Blanc. Both were phenomenal! - Wineries Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Sad to say this place is not worth the trip out. We had went to visit a winery about 5 minutes away and came here for a visit. We came in to a freezing cold place (they did not turn on the heat). The young gentleman told us we "scared the sh*t out of him" when he came out from the back, even though the entrance door is pretty loud. He was pretty unfriendly and seemed unwilling to "serve" us and we left shortly thereafter. This place is small, a bit out-dated, and old-looking. They do have food options, but nothing special, and they aren't big "red" growers, so don't expect (good) red wines if you are a red drinker. read more

I wish I could give them a 10 Star review. Great wine. My wife and I took 4 friends to this wonderful winery. We really enjoyed the flight. We also took a tour behind the scenes. I labeled and capped a wonderful Merlot. They have food too. We started out with a cheese and meat platter. They also have wood fired pizza there. The cook did an amazing job making a very tasty and evenly cooked thin crust pizza. read more

Loved loved this little winery! The setting is beautiful and the atmosphere was exactly what I was hoping to find in the Pacific Northwest. Vines are planted on the hills and we were encouraged to walk around the grounds, which very peaceful. I picked a few grapes off the vine to try as that's always fun. There is a cemetery at the top of the hill (not sure if it's part of the grounds), and a goat (which is a part of the grounds). There was also an emu that we only got a glance of. We also took the oyster crackers from the wine tasting and fed the chickens. They were so into it! The service was very friendly, personal, and knowledgeable. I would have loved to sit around outside all day here. The wine was okay. I will be recommending this place over some of the larger ones to everyone I know who is going to be in the area! read more

Rustic and charming setting, the outdoor patio is very welcoming as well! We visited there with two lovely ladies "of a certain age". I called ahead to let them know we were celebrating 'Appreciation Day' for our friends. The staff was friendly and very attentive. The wine, small bites & pizza were all perfection. Our friends were delighted about being treated like celebrities! No pressure to get in/get out. A perfect '10'! read more

The servers were not wearing proper face masks. They cared more about looking cute and fashionable with a see through decorative scarf instead of keeping their customers safe. I felt very uncomfortable, there was only one server I saw out of 6 that were wearing an appropriate face mask BUT she kept touching it and moving it around while she was talking to us. They need to do a better job, there is no excuse why they cannot wear better face coverings. read more

Wood fired pizza oven, friendly service and really good wine ( I love full bodied reds) - what's not to like

My husband and I heard that our friends were playing music there so decided to surprise them and check out the place. We were not disappointed! Such a beautiful surrounding, the staff were fantastic, the Muscat wine and pizza were amazing! Everything was superb and we will definitely be returning. Even if it is cold and rainy outside there is a great big socially distanced room with heaters to keep you dry and warm!! I would highly recommend checking out Ankeny Vineyard! read more

I had a fabulous time! It was very picturesque and quaint. They raise their own chickens and grow many vegetables in their garden. But of course, we are all there for the wine! I loved the creamy Pinot Noir and bought 2 bottles of the Foch which was rich in figs and mocha. Its nice that you can take your wine and wander the grounds. We went up to the Pioneer Cemetery and marveled over the age of some of the stones. We called to the goats but they had no interest in getting pets. :) Definitely check this place out and I hear they have a groupon you can get. read more

My husband and I loved the laid back family-style atmosphere of this vineyard. The outdoor deck had gorgeous rustic views of the countryside. Chicken pomodora pizza and creme brûlée were .
