There was lots of inside seating, but it was extremely loud (and crowded) when we visited. The front room is decorated like a German beer hall. We sat in a large room off to the side that looks like it would be used for wedding receptions or large parties. There is also a patio with seating but it was a cold day so we stayed indoors. The patio looks like it could use a refresh but the view is very nice.

We were invited into this large bar space with ample seating and easy access to another attached large space that had even more seating which led to even another large seating space outside with a view of the valley. Von Jakob offers, wine, beer, and limited bourbon which we were told was really a one time offering, and once the bourbon is gone, that's it. We were only there for a tasting and did pick up a few bottles. I never felt rushed and the host was knowledgeable and offered information on all that was available as the tasting list was extensive. There was no live music while we were there but I would not hesitate to come back for that. A solid experience.

(There was a baby shower in progress.) We were still able to find a table. There are outdoor seating options but it was too cold. The service was quick and efficient. Their wine flights are organized in a cute carrier, and it was only $10 for a flight. You do have to check your empty flight back in to get your deposit back. It was not the best wine on the trail, in my opinion. There was some cute wine merchandise, similar to what is sold at other wineries. The women's bathroom was spacious and clean. I would return, especially on a warm day when the patio is open.

There is plenty of free parking in their lot and lots of seating inside. There was live music that started at 2:00. There were board games. You can order food (although the cafe was closed when we visited) The service was prompt and friendly. I had a glass of dry red that was okay. When the band started playing, they were loud and it became difficult to talk. Also, you don't get cell phone reception inside and there isn't and guest WiFi. Bathroom was clean. When we visited (9/13/25), their merchandise was 50% off.

I had a lavender drink and a peach sangria that were specials not on the main menu. We ate on the back deck (or was it a porch?) and had a good view of a field. I think we ordered a cheese board or a meat and cheese board, but it's been over a month now and I can't be sure. That lack of memory may indicate that we weren't raving about it and we weren't disappointed in it.

They brew their own beer, with a focus on sours and saisons. Those aren't really my style, so I stuck with water, but if you're into those varieties, you'll probably enjoy the selection. The atmosphere was one of the highlights. I sat inside, but they also have a large, spacious outdoor patio that looked like a fantastic place to relax and hang out. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely go back for the food and the vibe.

I got two orders because I know I love jalapeño poppers. Let me just say I wish I would've gotten four! They are so good I couldn't stop eating them!
