The Burnt Bridge Tasting Room is one of the better winery tasting rooms in the Vancouver area. The room itself is cozy - there's a bar, there is an open seating area and then there is a kitchen/bar area that my GF describes as "the kitchen of her dreams" - that's where the catering magic happens If you like bold reds, Burnt Bridge is the place to be. Their whites are also exceptional, but vastly outnumbered by the reds. You can buy flights, you can buy glasses, you can fill growlers (!) or you can buy bottles/cases. I've been a member of their wine club for several years. As a club member, you get discounts on bottle and case purchases, you get several free tastings a month. On my last visit, my GF and I came in for a tasting, and got a snack while we were at it. I try to do this at least twice a month - being mindful that I'm likely to wind up walking out with more wine than I can drink in a month. I won't leave specific tasting notes on the wine, other than to note that it's all pretty exceptional. The snacks are variable, but always tasty. The pairings inevitably work well with the wines that are on the tasting flights on offer at any given time The staff is exceptionally friendly, and knowledgeable about both the wine and various events that are hosted at the facility. There are three or four events a month ranging from origami to trivia to karaoke... It all varies, it's all fun. Highly recommended! read more

See all

Well, you know by my previous reviews, I'm always a supporter of local. At the recommendation of friends, we were made aware the (former?) owners of Burnt Bridge Cellars lived in our neighborhood. Of course, that meant we had to give it a try. Cool winter day, we decided to pop in for a flight mid-afternoon. Not full from lunch, not hungry for dinner, we decided to order their charcuterie bard. What they brought to our table did not disappoint! Brie, breads, jams, nuts, dried fruits, grapes... THE WORKS! The wine flight they brought was nicely presented and decently poured. We did enjoy trying the local wines, always good to enjoy your locally grown grapes in a glass of vino! Price was super fair considering how large the charcuterie board was and the nice pours. This is a great spot to check out on a random afternoon when you're looking to burn some time. The ambiance is warm and welcoming witha lovely staff! read more

Met for early afternoon happy hour. Ambiance and service made it for a perfect experience.

I love Burnt Bridge Cellars! Great wine, tasty appetizers, ambiance and events! I also like their growler fill availability, origami classes and wine clubs. It is at a very convenient location with lots of parking or walking areas in downtown Vancouver. Wonderful owners, wine makers and staff! Great place! read more

Lovely tasting room and patio available so we could bring our dog. Mostly big reds, but we liked the GSM blend and Marsanne / Rousanne wines the best. There are food options and the girl who served us was awesome! read more

Burnt Bridge Cellars - Wine flight - Wineries Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Love this place! Great wine, great people, great atmosphere. One of our favorite spots for a night out.

I do miss the days in Sonoma and Napa California where you could go wine tasting for free, sigh! We had the wine flight, 5 wines , $15 a person. Each was about three sips, enough to get the full flavor. They were all very good. If you buy a bottle, they will not charge you for the tasting. The staff was friendly enough and the decor was a but sparse yet peaceful. I would go back again. Good place to bring out of town visitors read more

Burnt Bridge Cellars has some of the best red wine offerings I've tasted. I am a particular fan of the Blend X and the 2016 Syrah. Great to have such a quality winery so close! What's great is that Burnt Bridge Cellars is not only next door to Class Cooking but the same couple co-owns them. They are able to utilize both spaces, at least for private events. read more

Nice for first Fridays in the Couve! Lobster Mac and Cheese this month. Service and staff are great. read more

Burnt Bridge Cellars - Wineries Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

A cute little local winery in Vancouver. The server was very friendly and offered suggestions of other locations in the area. The wine was really, really good too. You can tell that locals come here often. The servers would recognize the people coming in and knew what they like. A really cool community spot for wine. read more

We enjoyed the tasting but I have never been a fan of pouring all the wines at once except for a vertical tasting or for comparing the same varietal. I miss the input and comments from the host. With regards to food, the charcuterie plate was a decent value but not impressive and could be more upscale. Our tasting coordinator was pleasant and professional and provided good service. The location is conveniently located in downtown Vancouver and has an industrial feel versus a venue out in the vineyard or on a river. Recommended. read more

Really fun and affordable wine tasting! Cute place with fun art inside too. Nice people. Bought a bottle that we liked to bring home for later. read more

Great winery and great service. We had trouble deciding because EVERYTHING was good. The servers were really nice and accommodating. Loved it! read more

A friend of mine invited me to meet her here on a Thursday night since they have discounted glasses of wine. Thirsty Thursday, don't mind if I do! I've passed by this place a million times - lord knows why I haven't actually stopped in, but now I'm glad I have! Their Grenache is SO GOOD and the gals working there are sweet to boot. But places seriously win me over when their DOG FRIENDLY - and this place is! *SWOON* Anyone who knows me knows my dog is my baby - she comes with me everywhere she's allowed - and it's always great to add a new place to the mix! read more

I visited this lovely tasting room and was amazed by the friendly staff, owners and wonderful variety of wines especially reds. If they're your favorite this is the place for you!! I highly recommend this place. The atmosphere is fantastic so many amenities like cooking school and outdoor seating with live music. Just a wonderful overall experience !! read more

Wow Mark, thanks so much for opening that reserve Cabernet, it was amazing! You and Greg made us feel so welcome! We had such a great time and you helped us forget about hurricane Irma for a while! Your wines are amazing and your hospitality is even better! Cheers, Joanne and Steve Daytona Beach read more

Burnt Bridge is a very appropriate name They certainly have burnt our bridge!! I almost never write a negative review, but condescending attitude is unacceptable My wife was walking and didn't have her license with her (however lovely she is 63 years.) she was "scolded" for not carrying it in Washington state. Having lived near Napa for many years , where hospitality is prevalent everywhere she was astounded Average wine. Below average attitude Good thing Washington has many other fine wineries Rare for me to write this type of review. Needed to be done. I'm sure they write this off as "sour grapes". But it's true read more

If you like complex bold reds, it's a must try. I stumbled upon and signed up for their wine club by the time I left. It all tasted amazing

I visited on one of those over 100 degree weather day, already I was glad when I was stepping into the place because of the nice cool and strong AC :) $10 for a flight of 5 wine tastings and if you choose to pick up a bottle, the tasting is free. The prices of the wine were also very reasonable. $20~$40ea. I'm no wine expert but it wasn't hard to find a bottle that I like. PS. Also very intrigue with the large kitchen connected to it that offers cooking lessons. May need to return to try that soon! read more

Just a lovely place and great music in the back. Great wine. Hey Mark! I still use the glass I bought here but wish I had more of their wine to put in it. read more

Really good wines. Nice people. Worth a visit, plus a friendly puppy!

I loved this place!! I stopped in while visiting from out of town and found this cozy spot to be perfect for a wine tasting. The wine is really good and the staff are excellent. The atmosphere of the place is unbeatable. I met people who were very friendly. There were lots of locals who stop by for wine. What a great vibe! Very welcoming and fun. read more

I live down the street and have been wanting to check out this winery since I moved in about 2 months ago. I was very pleasantly surprised! The finger foods were a good price for what you got and the wine was big and bold - I was really impressed! I ordered two glasses of the Reserve Cab Sauv and I strongly recommend others to try it! The folks at the bar were pleasant and helpful, and remembered my name, which made me feel like a valued customer. On a Friday evening it was filled with lots of folks just getting off of work and meeting their friends for a drink, but was not over crowded. Everyone there was friendly and cheerful. I definitely recommend going for a drink and enjoying some wine and a snack! read more

My friend, husband and I happened to walk in during one of their wine club pickup parties and couldn't have been more ecstatic with the timing. Great service, fun crowd, normal sized pours but extra wines to try to make comparisons (the 2013 vs. 2014). We were told we would try six wines but I think we were poured 8-10 tastings during our flight. We didn't get quoted a price for the flight but we dove in. Appetizers had been served by the cooking class that is conjoined to the winery. Seriously unreal food - the curry chicken salad?? What kind of wizardry was this?! This is the only winery in downtown Vancouver and they were honestly just so great all around. We lucked out on timing but I would absolutely be back for a normal tasting just to experience it again. And side note, if I were local, I would immediately sign up for one of those cooking classes next door. Side note, it ended up being slightly less than $10 per person for those flights. So much bang for your buck!! read more

I visited Burnt Bridge for the first time yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable, the staff was friendly and attentive without being pushy, and the wine was fantastic. We went in for a tasting and ended up buying a bottle! To top off an already great experience, they are dog friendly too! read more

We were very disappointed with the First Friday event on June 1. Which was sad, because we were really looking forward to it. The first problem was they ran out of food at 6pm, the event was until 9pm, and they seemed completely overwhelmed and were rude. There was no hospitality shown, no friendliness, just rudeness. The only area that had some seats was in the kitchen, and one of the staff members rudely told the people next to us; 'don't get any closer, I have hot pans". That would have been fine, but the way it was said was like we were invading her home, which was not the case. To add fire to the flame, the wine is expensive, but we were excited to meet up with friends and enjoy a nice dinner. That did not happen. We will not be back. read more

What a wonderful treat. Mark and Kim have opened a great tasting room in downtown Vancouver. There wines are fun and so are they. You need to check Burnt Bridge Cellars out. read more

Burnt Bridge Cellars provided a wonderful Christmas event for our company - wine tasting and a dinner to die for! The ambiance in the tasting room is wonderful and on a cold, rainy night, it was welcoming and warm. The wines are excellent and Kim cooked a buffet dinner that was incredible. All the dishes were unique and flavorful. I can't wait to come back and take a cooking class from Kim. Thank you Mark & Kim for a great night and for your hospitality. I love to see new businesses opening and thriving in downtown Vancouver and I would highly recommend Burnt Bridge Cellars for their wine, cooking classes, or a private party! read more

Such nice people and really wonderful wines, it's worth a trip to Vancouver to taste their wines, last year they sold out after Christmas so I recommend going before they do. read more

I hosted an event there recently. It was perfect! The wines are outstanding, the atmosphere is very warm and conducive to a wine tasting/party event. Kim from Class Cooking (connected to the winery) catered the event. Every dish she created was delicious and received raves from all. Mark and Kim are extremely gracious hosts and they have created an amazing spot in downtown Vancouver. read more
