One of my favorite vineyards. Consistently good experience with attentive and friendly staff. Nice food options, live music and plenty Chill vibes. I love the idea of seasonal drinks and how the property transforms during the summer. My book club met up here for our monthly book chat. Took away a star for Not being able to purchase bottles for on site.
I visited Fox Hollow for the first time when some gals and I met up here for our book club meeting. This place is such a vibe, I can't believe I never came here earlier. We came at 11:30am on a Sunday afternoon, and there was a lot of available parking spots and seating options. The person who took our orders was very friendly, and she was able to give us several recommendations. I got the Derby White, which was on the slightly sweeter side, which I enjoyed. We also ordered a gourmet NJ cheese platter and the creamy burrata w/ toasted baguette. Tbh I thought the food items were quite expensive considering how much you get. There were two levels-- we went to the lower one where there was live music and some games. We had so much fun listening to the music, enjoying the view, snacking and drinking, and playing one of the board games from the register. I would definitely come again!
Beautiful winery with lovely staff! I had a wonderful time here except for one thing. It's a really large piece of property on a hill. I feel they can have their ordering system a bit more organized. If you're seated in the picnic tables down the hill and order food, you have to go uphill to pick it up. Also, wine flights can only be ordered uphill, downhill are the spritzers. What would be best is if they have QR code on the tables and you can order that way. If we were sitting uphill, we would've never known spritzers are downhill for example. That said, I really did enjoy their wines. I had a sweet wine flight which came with a complementary glass. I also had their Italian spritzer. As for food, they have a decently large menu for a winery. I had the grilled chicken wrap which was good and served warm. It's dog friendly, they have games like Jenga by the picnic tables, and they have fire pits too!
Went to fox hollow vineyards on saturday. It was very packed. There was a lot of people who came out. There was a $5 entrance fee cash only. There's not really any structure, you kind of just make your way around independently. The vineyard Itself looked beautiful. It had an area where people lay down and can do a picnic. There were also some outdoor games. It appeared to be dog friendly since a lot of people brought their dogs. I paid $16 for the sweet wine tasting flight. The wines were in these plastic shot glasses essentially and it came with oyster crackers on the side. I only like 2 out of the 4 wines on the flight. But even so, there wasn't any wines that stuck out to me. I would probably need to try a different selection of wines. I wasn't able to try the food because the lines were really long and I didn't feel like going through the hassle. Scenery wise it looks amazing. I think it's a great place to come and have a relaxing day with friends or by yourself. I just wouldn't come on a saturday because of the amount of people.
Fox hollow winery in Holmdel NJ is a local winery. Parking and handicap spots are available. There are many Yelp detailed accurate reviews of information about them as live music at this afternoon performance Amanda sang and Nick played the guitar. There was also outdoor seating of tables with umbrellas,dog friendly, flower gardens, wine tasting,moderate choice of very expensive foods , with no selection of fruits except one plastic container of grapes and cheese, non alcoholic can or bottle drinks, and a few souvenir spots the enterance one also selling - expensive bottles of wines. No Behind the scene tours available. If you make a phone call after working hours what you hear is "Hello please leave a message after the tone" with no notation of their business name. My friends gave it a 5 and I'd give it a 3 so to be fair I'm giving it4 stars as a local place from hours 3-5 to visit.
As soon as it gets warm out, I get that itch to visit Fox Hollow. Whether you're a big fan of wine or just want to grab a bite outside, Fox Hollow always satisfies any crowd I come with. From the second you come in, the staff is always so kind and helpful, especially if you choose to try a wine tasting experience. I personally can't wait for their White Derby wine to be for sale each year and adore the labels they come packaged with. They make great gifts as well! When I'm not wine tasting, I love to sit out on the lawn or at the fire pits to enjoy the live music they offer on weekends with a personal pie/pretzels that are on the more expensive side, but most definitely very satisfying. I also love how dog-friendly this spot is, as there are so limited spots you can enjoy frozen wine and bring your dog to.
What a wonderful night we had here at the vineyard. Weather was perfect, the band, "Castles in the sky " played cover tunes for all genres, people were having a good time, there was some dancing and a lot of happy people. And that was before too much wine was consumed, we were early. lol. Our first encounter was at the outside wine booth. Where we met Kelly, a beautiful young lady who was fairly new, but she was attentive and informational even tho new. As we laid into our evening, we were served at the inside flight wine bar by Patti. Another friendly face. And speaking of friendly, a gentleman customer started up a conversation and we talked about local restaurants, bars and other fun stuff. Toward the end of our stay we realized the winery had a great sale on some wines. Something like $8 a bottle, cases only. We did a couple of mixed flights to get a taste and met Johnathan, the manager, we had a few questions. He was sincerely a nice gentleman, answered all of questions professionally and that resulted in us buying two cases of their wines that we liked. Overall a great experience. Clean, friendly, not over the top expensive. We enjoyed the outside tables on the band deck. The music was good, weather perfect and an all a good time. Definitely a place to have repeat visits, especially when out of towners come. No need to drive a hundred miles to experience what we have right here in our own backyard. Thank you Kelly, Patti and Johnathan for helping out. We'll see you soon.
Great winery in south Jersey. Ample parking and easy to get to. Vineyard is gorgeous, lots of seating to sit and mingle. Few fire pits available. Wines were pretty good, wish there were more options however. Food was okay, just basics like margarita pizza, Jalepeno grilled cheese, nothing special. Great service overall. Definitely recommend if you're in the central/south Jersey area. Great place to chat.
So as usual this is one of the most beautiful winery's around. From the layout to the seating to the views it's spectacular. But I wouldn't be helping you guys out if I didn't tell you about some of the changes. The first time I came here I did a tasting with some friends and we got to pick wines from all over the menu . That has changed. They give you specific flights you can choose from now. I'm not a fan of this because I like to have a selection of dry and sweet and now I feel like you have to choose 4 of the same tasting things. I don't know what sparked this change but I hope it's changed slightly soon. Still love this place but don't like this new change.
Very good atmosphere during good weather. They have a decent selection of wines. They provide live music on weekends and have remodeled the downstairs (outdoor) area with additional tables, games like corn hole, and thee is an inside room down there now where you can buy and taste wines. I'll add to this when I don't have my dog and can go inside there. The servers there are all very personable and recommend according to your likes of wine (as they all should, but some places do not have the knowledge they should). All in all, I enjoy this place and others a few times a year.
This winery was beautiful. They have a large outdoor patio and table seating area if you want to order food or wine. If you want to do the wine tasting, you go "inside" in the covered area. To be honest, it was much colder up there than I anticipated. It's on a hill and was about 5 degrees cooler than Old Bridge. We opted to do a flight and they offered crackers and water for in between. The wine was of a sweeter wine. I was happy to see they used some grapes from Cayuga county, although they grow the grapes on site. We ordered food, and they text when it is ready to come pick up. The food was ok but the scenery and wine made up for it. We bought a bottle of wine for the
Food is decent -- regular stuff like sandwiches, salads, and cheese platters. Out of all, I would recommend the cheese platters because it comes with a good variety of cheeses and some grapes. It's kind of a server your own place, so you have to go, get your stuff, and find a place to sit. The only negative is the fact you can't buy a bottle and have it while you're here, you have to have it off the premises, you can only have wine by the glass, which can get a bit pricey considering it's like $10+ a glass. Other than that, they allow leashed dogs, which is always an extra star in my book, and the view is awesome.
It's nice to know that I have a winery local to me! Fox Hollow Vineyards is located in Holmdel, NJ. I visited on a warm Sunday in August with a group of ladies from a social club I'm apart of. There's several different seating areas indoors and outdoors. They have a few different areas where you can purchase drinks as well. Inside, you can order food. I decided to go with a white wine flight and a Margherita pizza. The pizza was okay, nothing spectacular, but it was satisfying. I enjoyed the wine and the ambiance of the place. My favorite thing, however, was the wine slushies! I probably should've started with those. If you're looking for a place to have a relaxing day out, Fox Hollow is the place! read more

Beautiful winery in Jersey with flower garden, outdoor patio, and terrace games. Food was available from the chef in the kitchen and came out in a timely manner. The wine was alright, I wasn't too impressed with the Cabernet Sauvignon but everyone else enjoyed their whites. There is a lower terrace area with a hut that serves their spritzes and they serve an Italian Spritz which is a twist on the Aperol spritz that is worth any drive read more
This place was a bit of a let down. The vineyard is GORGEOUS. The wines are just not there for us. We tried white and red, dry and sweet. None of them hit the spot. Also a huge pet peeve for anyone who regularly visits a vineyard, their wine tasting is served in a flight. The server drops the four tastings and you never see them. No interaction, no explanation of vintage, grape, region, process... anything. You come, you pay, you drink your flight. This would not be a place we return to. Please, please, please bring back a traditional tasting to improve the guest experience. read more
Fox Hollow is a lovely place. I have been here a few times now when visiting my aunt who lives nearby. It's especially nice on the weekends when it's warm out as they have a large outdoor area and often have live music. All ordering takes place at the counter - there is no table service. Tips are cash only but they do take cards for purchases. I'm impressed with how much their food menu has expanded since I first started coming here. Their pretzels are super delicious - be sure to get those. I typically order various roses. I've also tried some of their red wines, frozen rose, and mulled wine on different occasions. It would be nice if you could open bottles on premises but I'm assuming there may be a specific reason that they don't offer that. Perhaps it's not allowed by law? I'm not sure. Their glasses of wine (and bottles) can be a bit pricey though. All of the workers I have come across here have been super friendly and knowledgable about their products. I also love that FHV is dog friendly - my aunt has several Golden Retrievers which we bring here on occasion and are always a hit with the workers as well as other customers. Although they're only allowed outside - no longer inside as they used to be - this may be due to the increased food menu. If I lived nearby, I would be here a lot - including regularly on a nice day for lunch and a glass of wine. read more
This winery was a fun place to stop. They close early at 6:30pm on Saturdays with live music from 2-5. We got there just after 5 so we missed the music, but the drummer in the band was closing up and was super friendly and chatted with us for a bit. To drink on site, you can only order wines by the glass. They have bottles for purchase, but they are only for taking home. Tastings end at 5:30 so we were able to squeeze in an order. We got one regular tasting and one chocolate tasting to share. For the tastings, you have to sit inside. The price includes a souvenir wine glass. The wines in the chocolate tasting were all very sweet. I was surprised because I felt the chocolate would have paired better with drier offerings. The chocolate was really good though and I enjoyed quite a few of the ganache fillings. For the regular tasting, they have about 20 different wines to choose from. They provide a sheet with helpful descriptions. One of the employees was kind enough to note the wines that were in the chocolate tasting so we could make sure not to repeat any, which was really appreciated. The staff here were very friendly. They have a ton of outdoor seating and lots of umbrellas for shade on sunny days. The view of the grounds was very pretty and they have some lovely flowers near the tasting section, which made for some nice pictures. I would love to come back earlier in the day to more leisurely enjoy the experience. read more
Looking over the rolling hills with outdoor seating and listening to a live musical performance, make this a great venue to sip wine and savor this 5 year old vineyard. Wine by the glass to enjoy the surroundings. Check it out! read more
Very nice grounds for an afternoon, dogs welcome. Live music front and center. They offer tastings, small bites, and by the glass. Rather disappointing that bottles can't be opened on premises to drink--left spending $10/glass all day long. Prices in general were high; a tasting of 4 was $20 or so... which is usually half the price anywhere else. At the time, there was also a chocolate & rose pairing available which my friends really enjoyed. Overall, a nice selection of red & white wines... all on the dry side! Service was not overly warm, but adequate. read more
4.5 Stars! On Friday March 19th, We spent a delightful sunny afternoon at Fox Hollow Vineyards. The winery had dessert wine and chocolate flights available for $22.00 pp. A Fox Hollow Vineyard glass was included. The riesling was my favorite. You could also purchase the chocolate online at www.chocolatelegends.com. Wines were available by the glass too. Beth assisted us with wines. We had the 2018 Barrel Aged Chardonnay and the 2019 Cabernet Franc by the glass.. These wines we had were on the dry side. The Barrel Aged Chardonnay was very interesting. It had a very lemony taste. We did enjoy a cheese box for two ($12.00) too! Lots of outdoor seating was available. Additional seating was available around fire pits. A large parking lot is available. Definitely would return to Fox Hollow Vineyards! read more

Our original plans were canceled. So we decided to check this place out. We came here on a Sunday close to closing time. That wasn't a good idea on our part. However, they accommodated us to the best of their ability since wine tasting was over and the kitchen was closing. However, we managed to order some food and frozen drinks. Next time, we need to come back during regular hours. read more

I think the reviews for this place are lowered due to complaints that they don't allow children, and due to service. I can only say that I have been here twice during COVID restrictions, and both times we have felt very comfortable and had a wonderful time. First- if you are taking kids to a Vineyard, do your research in advance. Many places do allow children, but this one prefers to keep a more quiet adult experience. Just respect it and find a place more suitable for children. Second- we came only during off peak hours. It was peaceful and the views were beautiful. We ordered our food from the desk, and the food/drinks were served promptly. They have good COVID protocols in place (markings for distancing between seats, QR code menu, signage on distancing and masks). Food-we didn't eat the first time. During our second visit we had the jalapeño grilled cheese and caprese sandwich. Both were very good. The grilled cheese with the touch of spiciness was delicious. Wine- Well, I am not a wine connoisseur. I just enjoy a nice glass (or in the case of my last visit, cup of hot mulled wine) enjoying the outdoors views. Dogs are allowed outside. I wanted to do the chocolate/wine pairing tasting, but they will not serve it outside. So I skipped it, no problem. read more

This place has a really nice vibe, especially on a nice day. The patio is so pretty and the whole area is so tranquil. In all honesty, the wine isn't the best but I think the location makes up for it. I've never been here during peak hours so I'm not sure how busy it gets but it's definitely a good spot to come with a group of friends. They have a pretty decent-sized menu with sandwiches, cheese platters, pizza, salad, etc. read more

Hi! We have a small dog, would he be allowed inside if we come for a wine tasting?
They let dogs in but not 15 month old humans. The owners are Idiots!
