Came in here to order some deli sandwiches for lunch. The process was easy, there's a paper where you check off what you want on your sandwiches, write your name and hand it to the employee making the sandwiches. While we were waiting for our sandwiches, we headed over to the wine tasting area to try some wines that I wanted to purchase. I ended up getting the pomegranate wine and the mango wine. They tasted really good! Also the sandwiches were delicious!! Customer service was really nice!! Clean shop and overall we had a great experience coming here! read more

In Hollister, CA, there is Casa de Fruta a tourist trap; it checks the boxes for an all around road side stop. Clean restrooms that of course are strategically placed between the sweet shop and wine & deli shop. There's a gas station. Fuel yourself up at the sit down restaurant serving classic diner food. There is a fruit stand on steroids carrying local fresh produce, jelly jams, snacks, dried fruit, etc. Sweet shop is filled with chocolates, candy, popcorn, and ice cream and the place to buy the tickets to ride the little choo choo train and merry go round. Now let's talk about the wine & deli shop. The shop is filled with Casa de Fruta farm made jellies, jams, snacks, and wines; along with kitchen gift items. In the back of the shop is the sandwich counter. Fresh made to order sandwiches. Pricing average $15. And the wine... Various wines of red, white, fruit and sparkling. The display of fruit wines perked my interest and stopped me in my tracks. Mango, pomegranate, blackberry and raspberry wines?! Say what? I went to the wine counter to inquire about the tastings. The gentleman at the counter was pouring wine for one lone customer and ignored others that walked up. Very odd. Not even an acknowledgment but actual invisible treatment. But I know for certain I left my invisibility cloak at home that day. The cashier at the front register was great though. She had a bright, fun, and engaging personality. No wine purchase but bought a jar of jam. read more

It is now called Casa de Wine and Deli. The deli is in the back, so we tried the deli. The sandwiches had hardly any meat and the service was SLOW! They have 1 option for a roll, and it makes the sandwich dry due to too much bread and not enough meat and condiments. Hands down the worst deli sandwich I've had in the last 10 years. The male that works there had a horrible attitude and horrible reaction when we advised that a change was needed to one of the 3 sandwiches that we ordered. I would never go back here for a sandwich and would only recommend it to my enemies. read more

Where to begin!!! I haven't been here in years! I normally order the pomegranate wine, but stopped when the crops went bad and they weren't able to produce quality wine. Finally, a few years later a good crop was produced and we're back. Plenty of history, carousel, mariachi band, gold, mining, sandwich, shops, restaurants and much more. If you're passing through just stop by! No too busy and plenty of parking. read more

Dan helped us out for our tasting and he was really cool about everything. Gave us great recommendations and we ended up leaving with 3 bottles. The fruit wines for sangrias are honestly a must. We grabbed a bottle of pomegranate champagne and sat outside and just enjoyed the weather. Total vibe. read more

Feels like a nice and peaceful village. Good for a pit stop, bring your kids out, lunch, or whatever you want. We were craving for sandwiches so my bf and I made a pit stop here. We got the chicken breast pesto sandwich. It was messy, but it was delicious. Such a cute area with carousel, kids playground-ish, train tracks, a pond ish, and dog friendly. Mainly service animals can go into the store which mine is. read more

Casa de Wine used to have great sandwiches with generous portions and solid quality, but the last two visits have been really disappointing. It's been the same person both times making them, and the quality has been absolutely terrible. Ingredients were just thrown on unevenly (cucumbers in one corner, turkey in another), making them sloppy and unbalanced. The wrapping was greasy and dirty, like she didn't change gloves between orders. It felt unhygienic and careless. She was also talking and distracted. Both of my orders have been wrong. Today, I didn't ask for jalapeños or bacon, but there were jalapeños on my sandwich and even a tiny piece of bacon. It looks like it may have fallen in accidentally or been transferred by dirty gloves, which was upsetting because I don't eat pork. Both times I ordered five sandwiches, and the price was definitely not worth it. Really hope they get back to the pride and quality they used to have. read more

Stopped by on my way to NorCal. Dan and John were very friendly and give me great recommendations on the wine menu and deli menu. John at the wine bar recommended the Cab and Dan recommended their hot dog which both were so good. The outdoor seating is clean and lovely. They have WiFi as well. read more

The deli is over rated and overpriced for sure. I've eaten there twice many many years apart. The 1time i got a sandwich and it was overpriced then Mind you that was over 10 years ago the 1st time I went The 2nd time I ate at the deli was yesterday and it was still over priced and the bread wasn't fresh at at all! $18 amd some change for a turkey sandwich and a caramel from up at the register. Was so not worth it. The bread went to the birds and about half or everything else went to the trash. Why didnt I return it for a refund? I was in a hurry and hungry so just delt with it. Its a good place to stop and stretch your legs...... read more

My husband and I had a delicious and delightful wine tasting experience! The wines were fabulous! My husband especially loved the pomegranate wine! The bonus was Lanette, our wine guide, who educated and entertained us! I highly recommend a visit here! read more

Going to and from Santa Clarita to San Jose, I always stop at casa de wine. Casa de wine is basically in the center of the casa de frusta well known restaurant and casa de sweets. This little rest stop in Northern California is one of the best rest stops I ever been to. Although 2020 is a rough year due to the coronavirus outbreak, I've visited this place many times prior to the pandemic. Inside, there are various novelty items with dried fruits, antiques, snacks, dressings, syrups and most famously known for the sandwiches. The sandwiches are very delicious and they are about $10.00 give or take depending on if you wanted to add $2 for avocado or 2$ for additional meat. The sandwiches are custom made and I always go here to purchase them. The customer service is more or less, average but the convenience of coming here and scouting not only casa de wine, but the casa de fruta restaurant, dried fruit store and sweets give a family enjoyable vibe. There are also small rides like carousel, train rides and swings for children open during specific times. The pandemic however has shut down this children play area for the time being but it is enjoyable to the babies. The casa de wine has various wine bottles for wine drinkers as well. I haven't tried very many of the wines but the ones that I purchased were not bad. They have a sweeter taste than normal wine you would normally get at restaurants and BevMo. Prices have been increasing rapidly because of lack of sales during the 2020 pandemic. The prices used to be fair about, 10-30$ for a majority of the products but now they have been inflated. Last time I went here, I went to the other venues because casa de wine closes early and decided to purchase pies. The pies are located at the other casa venues and they are about $15. My favorites are the marrionberry, fruit of the forest and the boysenberry. I have never actually tasted the food but from the looks of what others had and the menu, I can rest assured it is the same as Denny's or IHOP. Prices were pretty high as well, so hopefully the quality is there. Parking is abundant and bathrooms are located in stalls outside and inside the restaurants as well as inside casa de wine. Gas stations are also located nearby and small convenience stores too. Chevron is here so, very unfortunate as they hike the price per gallon on there customers. read more

They sell only their house made wines which are consistently underwhelming and laughably overpriced. I've tried a number of variety's , at different years and different seasons. Never a prize bottle to remember in all the years . Frankly embarrassed that I gave some as gifts because they were "regional and local" , as it's just not very good wine . And they sell one type of beer .., a very very unpalatable Pilsner for $12 Bucks a six pack !? I am usually a sucker for "artesian goods" but this place is just a no class money machine that really has no "superior " product, just posh prices . read more

Found their pomegranate wine at the fruit stand by accident and came back later in the day to grab some more! I stopped by the wine shop so I could look at the different selection of wines. The nice gentleman that helped us gave us a sample of the plum wine.....good, but I like pomegranate better. You can also do tastings here for I believe $15/person. read more

Absolutely LOVE stopping here and time I'm going back and forth from The Bay to LA. The wine is super fun for a nice little break while you wait for your sandwich to be made. I always bring home a couple of bottles (and 6 pack). But the sandwich counter!!! Soooo good! Every sandwich I've had has been absolutely delicious! They have great options and it's so nice to sit at the tables and watch the peacocks in such a beautiful environment. Can't wait for my next little road trip just so I can stop here! read more

My husband and I took a mini 4th of July trip to Casa de Fruta. I haven't been in over 10 years, so everything was pretty new to me. We stopped in to the wine shop to look around and ended up doing a tasting of their wines. It was a nice stop since Casa de Wine is not as crowded as the rest of Casa de Fruta. For $10, we could try four wines. We both really enjoyed their chardonnay and plum wine. I loved their classic pomegranate wine. I never even knew that plum or pomegranate wine even existed. The plum wine was really unique and was not overly sweet like I was expecting. The worker who was pouring the wines was really nice and knowledgeable. We ended up buying four bottles of wine since we were so impressed. Definantly a nice stop if you are on a road trip and need a break from the heat. read more

Stopped to get a few sandwiches for the road but was let down! I filled the order form thinking they'll make a nice deli sandwich. What I got was bread that was pretty hard for a French roll, condiments only on the bottom piece of the bread which is weird! The deli meat was just enough to call it a sandwich. I guess they don't hold a high standard for sandwiches here! I'm gonna pass on getting a sandwich from here in the future. I'll just go to the restaurant instead! read more

This place is a very nice place to stop for food and gifts but what really upset me about this place is that the employees at the wine and deli are very nice and professional so naturally I offered a tip but the employee told me she couldn't accept it because the company policy does not allow them to. WHAT? Are you kidding me they're providing a service WTH so i told her I would just leave it on the counter and she nicely informed me that she would have to turn it in to the manager or risk getting in trouble. So Casa de Fruta I want to know why you're not allowing your employees to accept tips for their hard work and what are you doing with the money they turn in that you did not earn? sounds pretty greedy to me. I hope you're at least paying them well. For this reason I will no longer be stopping at your business anymore. read more

Loved this place! The sandwiches are so delicious and fresh! Great variety of snacks and drinks. Lots of cute little trinkets to look at. Always stop while passing through. read more

We made a pit stop to get gas, and we ordered sandwiches at the deli. It was Sunday afternoon, and it was chaotic. There's no line, and no way to gauge how long it would take to get our sandwiches. We filled out the order slips and dropped them off. It took 45+ mins for the sandwiches. The sandwiches were average. I asked the deli employee where we can get water. She looked at my wide eye and told me she didn't know, and I should ask someone else. I regret stopping here and will not be coming back. read more

Stopped in here after eating at casa de restaurant and nearly had to have my boyfriend take my purse from me so I wouldn't buy too many things. This shop has a lot more than wine in it, as I found out. We walked in for a bottle of pomegranate wine, and walked out with that, a jar of pomegranate jelly, and a bar of handmade soap (smells heavenly). The jar was about $4 or $5 for 10 oz and the soap was about $8. Had to quickly leave before I found more things to buy. This is one of those places you have to stop every time you see it, after visiting the first time, and that is certainly what I expect to be happening in the future. read more

Casa de Wine, while it does have wine, offers far more than that. There are a variety of nuts, awesome displays of seasonal gifts and a DELI! I discovered the Deli by accident when the "Casa de Restaurant" had a long line and waiting list. Walk just a bit further and this lovely Deli offer made to order salads, wraps and sandwiches. They are delicious and I love to eat outside where I can have my dog with me. While waiting for my salad, which was not long by the way, I browsed the amazing holiday decorations. It is rare when I cannot find something that I adore. I never pass by without stopping for refreshment. Highly recommend! read more

This is a great place to stop between San Francisco and Los Angeles on the drive, right in Gilroy, near Hollister. It's maybe 90 mins out from SF, on the cusp of the South Bay part of the Bay Area, so closer to SF than LA. Casa de Wine is part of the whole Casa de Fruita area, in the back where there's also a separate building for the bakery and restaurant, I think. This Casa de Wine features wine tasting as well as a really nice deli that does sandwiches, wraps and burritos. Their sandwiches are pretty awesome, easy to order with a checklist to mark what you want on it, with all of the options, making the process simple and easy as well as somewhat flawless as it's self explanatory. The prices are reasonable and service with a smile too! read more

We always stop at this lovely stop if we don't it just doesn't feel right and we end up turning around. Today we stopped at Casa de Wine and Deli and had one of their sandwiches and did some wine tasting mostly the gourmet ones for me. Oh man the raspberry wine is AMAZING!! Must do some wine tasting when you drop by here out of all the times we made pit stops, this was the first time we tried their wines. The raspberry wine is sweet then tart at the end amazing! The best part the raspberry wine was on BOGO!! Perfect for New Years. We also got a sandwich, grab a slip fill it out and make your own hand it to the ladies at the counter. It was perfect on a nice chilly New Years Eve... Gotta go about to board the train wooo hooo! read more

Love the deli! Get a toasted sandwich every trip! Chocolate covered dried fruit is also a must! Fruit wines are amazing, they have some chilled available too! Had Zeanna as a cashier today she went above and beyond wrapping our souvenir cups and wine, while we continued to shop and wait for our sandwiches, made sure we didn't forget napkins and told us where they were, and was just an overall joy to interact with today! read more

My hubby and I had a relaxing day here and we enjoyed tasting their wines as well as their delicious deli sandwiches, we bought a fresh apple pie and took it home for the kids and we ended up buying a bottle of their plum and pomegranate sparkling wine! They have a variety of nuts, fresh baked goods and dried fruits! We really enjoyed this place! Thank you Ken for all your help and all the nice employees there too! read more

Have been to the deli a few times good sandwich's but have gone a few times in the evenings and have been turned away being told they are not making sandwiches or the other Ben is off already so no toasted sandwiches 40 mins before they are closed... I won't waste my time with this place ever again horrible customer service read more

What a random place! My friend and I got a bit turned around on the drive home from Gilroy and ended up in the middle of nowhere. All of the sudden we came across this compound like place, Casa de Fruta, with Casa de Everythings (Casa de Train, Casa de Wine, Casa de Sweets, etc...) and we decided we must check this out. Kicked off our visit at Casa de Bathroom, which was very clean. Yay! Then we headed to the Casa de Wine. Super cute store, but pretty pricey. Wine tasting is free and you get three tastes. Most of their wines are fruit based. Blueberry was surprisingly good, as was Honey wine. There is also a deli housed inside this building that smelled really yummy. From there we moved onto Casa de Sweets which was disgustingly hot inside, I don't know how the candy wasn't melting. And then onto Casa de Grocery (or something) where there was another wine tasting station, so we went ahead and had more wine :) I would never drive out of my way to come here again, but if I am ever lost in the middle of San Benito County again, this would be a good place to stop for a bit. read more

I'm a bit surprised and thrown off by this place because it was completely unexpected. Whenever you think of free wine tasting, especially at a place that also sells sandwiches, has a restaurant, contains candy bars and fruit and sells just about everything else you can think of, it's really an after thought. Having wine here is purely the novelty of someone who can't think of anything better to increase their profits by from the troves of tourists paying high end prices for mediocre goods. Of course, for the most part, Casa is a welcome stop for many in the long drive of nothingness in-between so it's always good to have something to pick up. The wine tasting here is free up until 3 or 4 wines, I forget ... and the pours are literally a few drops since I guess they cater to a lot of freebie seekers and folks who just don't really care much and want to have some fun. However, their wines were actually quite goo especially considering they're mostly under $10 a piece. If I didn't already have a trunk full of wine to bring back i definitely would have picked some up. Totally recommended, it will kick your taste buds! read more

So disappointed. I stopped here with my father for a sandwich right before Memorial Day Weekend. They were understaffed and it took over 20 mins for the single employee to make a roast beef sandwich, once I figured out how to even place my order. I know this isn't the store's issue, but I was also harassed by 2 other customers for wearing a face mask. I guess they couldn't grasp the concept of wearing a mask when half the store employees had called in sick that day... I grudgingly paid the $12(!) for my sandwich but the final blow was that the sandwich was so dry, neither my father nor I could finish our half! Won't be stopping here in the future. Safeway would be better. read more

This review is for their sandwiches..... Which, at one point, was a great deal for what you get. $7.99 for generous portions. We stopped in today to find the sandwiches smaller, ingredient deficient and price increased to $9.99. Fuck that. read more

Deli review: Casa de Wine is more than just a wine & specialty food store at Casa de Fruta! They also have a small deli in the back that makes sandwiches, burritos and mini-pizzas. And in the very back, there's a hallway of photos describing the history of Casa de Fruta, worth checking out while waiting for your deli item to be created. I stopped by on my way up to the Bay Area and looked at the deli menu (which you order by marking a little form) - lots of meat options, but not really a vegetarian option. I pondered what to do when i saw separate forms for pizzas and burritos. I got a mini-pizza with olives and bell peppers. It took about 10 minutes to make, and when it was done, they apologized for the wait since they were having trouble with their toaster oven. Paid up at the front counter (where you also pick up a fountain drink and chips when you get a combo) and ate outside at nice tables in the sun. They loaded up my pizza with lots of olives - there were enough olives on this thing to cover a extra-large pizza. Bell peppers were at a more modest level. Crust was a little softer and chewier than perhaps expected - may be the toaster oven issue. As a wine shop, they seem to have a large selection, and also have a lot of specialty food things like fancy cheeses, gourmet marinades, mustards, etc. And fancy seasonal table settings, sun hats, etc. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. I got a sandwich and 15 MINUTES LATER I received it. I went to sit down and went I took a bite, NO MEAT. I went back and told them that they forgot the meat. 5 minutes later I finally received the sandwich but the wrap was reversed so my hands got dirty (no biggie) and then after I got my sandwich, there avocado spread inside my San which was all over the bread. I picked my sandwich up and THE BREAD RIPPED. I'm so tired of this place that wasted my money and time. read more

Friendly staff, outdoor seats, good reuben sandwich and very bland cole slaw. I sometimes ask for au jus sauce for my Reuben. Their sauce kind of lacked that depth of flavor but the friendly staff made up for it :) I wanted eggs Benedict but they stopped serving it when I got there (around 3pm; sad face) My overall experience was great :) If you're expecting gourmet sandwiches, you won't get it though. My 4star rating mostly came from the service. I'd give 3stars for food. My waitress(I didn't get her name) was so genuinely caring and wonderful. read more

If you are driving Hwy 152 between the bay area and the central valley, Casa de Fruta is a good place to stop. Clean restrooms, a place to play, and food. Also a gas station to refill your tank. The last time we made a stop there we got sandwiches at Casa de Wine. Nice, clean place to order a quick lunch. Good variety of hot & cold sandwiches as well as an assortment of burritos. Service is quick, checkout is easy. There are tables right outside to enjoy your lunch. And, if you wait, a peacock may come walking by. read more

They have complimentary wine tastings (up to three different wines) here, which is great because they have fruit wines that we have never tasted before. Their BLACKBERRY wine was our FAVORITE!! The pomegranate is their best-selling, but it was aiight. They have a 2-for-1 deal that rotates throughout the week..which is freakin' awesome! I got two bottles of Sauvignon Blanc for a total of $15. Whaaaaaat! Their Plum Wine was also a hit for the girls who like REALLY sweet stuff. It was a bit too sweet for me, but it had the 2-for-1 so some of us bought it. If you like wine, stop by and have a taste! Don't turn away from the 2-for-1 deal or you will regret it! :P read more
