Rudest owner on the island…read more If you enjoy being barked at by an agitated dog while the owner mocks your concerns, this is the place for you. We went out of our way to visit this winery, only to be met with total hostility. The owner's refusal to leash his incredibly obnoxious dog is irresponsible, but his attitude toward us was the real dealbreaker. My mother in law has been bit in the past, and was so uncomfortable. Plenty of other spots on Orcas Island actually value their customers, skip this one. The dog chased our car on the way out.

Spoiler alert: there's an adorable private patio tucked in the back! We returned the next morning for their soft launch into brunch and it was delicious! This is such a sweet business owned by a married couple who were both such pleasant people. We were very impressed with what they've established within the winery/restaurant. Can't wait to go back on my next visit to the island!

The oysters were absolutely delicious, and easily some of the best we've had. We also tried dessert, and it tasted homemade, so yummy and the perfect way to finish the meal. The service was just as great as the food. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and they helped us decide what to order, which made the experience even better. It never felt rushed, and the staff really made us feel taken care of. The views here are outstanding. We were lucky enough to sit by the window, which made the whole meal feel extra special. The inside of the restaurant is very cozy, with a fireplace that gives it such a warm and relaxing atmosphere. They also have limited outdoor seating during the warmer months, which I can imagine would be amazing with the view. Great food, beautiful scenery, and such a comfortable vibe. We will definitely be coming back again.

Skagit Cellars, La Conner, WA - August 12, 2025…read more This is a cute little tasting room. We were allowed to bring our dog inside. Our host Alissa was very sweet. She served up a flight of white and red wines and told us about each of them. The wines were tasty and reasonably priced.

They offer free wine tastings and even have wine slushies to sample. Very informative on the wines you want to try.

Never trust a company that you can't contact! Now all they have is a recording for the tasting room when you call, and no voice mail. You must use email. They have never answered me about my last order. I ordered a case of wine (two choices for labels).They sent the wrong label wine, Not a label that was listed! I believe the labels on the bottles I received were from a previous year. The wine is full of sludge, and the corks are dry. I asked them about it and they have not replied, so I can only assume I am right. With this kind of service, I predict they won't be around much longer-they have lost me as a customer! There are lots of wineries out there that have good wine, and better customer service!

One of the main reasons we decided to stop at Tulip Valley Winery was because they're dog friendly…read more And not just "tie your pup outside to a post" dog friendly they let our furry babies roam with us inside the tasting room and out on the patio like true VIPs (Very Important Pups) and even bring out water bowls for them. Highly recommend stopping by if you're looking to relax with a glass of wine or cider, enjoy a chill lunch, and hang with your four legged crew. Pro tip Stella Sopra, one of the best Italian food trucks or Italian food in general we've ever encountered is parked right on the property. Delicious handmade pasta plus good wine equals the kind of afternoon we all deserve. The staff here is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They took their time walking us through all the wines and sharing the stories behind them. We ended up walking away with a bottle of rosé Tempranillo and a beautifully aged 2014 Tempranillo hands down one of the best reds I've had all year. We were honestly shocked in the best way that a flight of four wines plus a full glass for my husband came out to under $20 talk about incredible value for quality pours or maybe were so used to crazy Seattle pricing! There's indoor seating, but if the weather's nice, grab a spot on the patio or in the front area with your dogs and soak in the peaceful vineyard vibes. I could see the patio filling up fast during peak times, but we visited during a slower hour and loved that no one rushed us people were coming and going, and we were free to sip, snack, and stay awhile. I wasn't the biggest fan of the ciders, but their wines were definitely worth the visit. It's a smaller operation, but that's part of the charm. Local, family-run vibes with great energy, great service, and great pours. Support the little guys and bring your dogs!

Whether you know a ton about wine or just want something good, he'll create a fun experience. I am so impressed by the selection and its diversity- there are awesome local wines but also cool representation from all over the world. I've tasted a lot of things, but every time I stop in, he has something for me to try that I have never tasted before! Always trust his recommendations. The shop itself is huge and full of amazing wines. The tasting list is diverse and large and they are super flexible in allowing guests to build their own tastings from the list. They also have some snacks! The outdoor area is right on the water and is absolutely lovely. I could spend the whole afternoon out there! For the past two years, my mom and I have joined them for their wine and crab cruises and nothing compares to them- absolute magic. This place is a total gem!

Equipped with a Bluetooth speaker to complete the mood! Service was friendly as they were still working out details of this new feature. There were a couple times when we needed more wine or wanted to order more food and there were longer checkin gaps. With the reservation time being limited, we hoped for more frequent checkins. Overall fun time, wish we could've stayed a bit longer but moved our party into the tasting room after. Fun way to pass a winter afternoon!
