I'm new to the area and love this shop. As a recovering California wine snob, Claire was amazing, as is her clientele!

I ordered their non-alcoholic wine , tasted a bit like apple. It was refreshing. Would be lovely to see NA bubbly in the future! Nick educated me on the process of removing alcohol from wine, and Nancy was such a friendly face in welcoming me in. Was neat to see love music set up outside too. Small inside with only 1 table but more seating outside. read more

Great wine selection and helpful friendly staff. Came for a glass of wine, left with three amazing bottles of wine.

Sarah and Claire are very knowledgeable and provide a great wine tasting experience. Will definitely be coming back. Atmosphere is fantastic. read more

Perhaps an off day, but in spite of a vast selection of wine, our visit wasn't impressive. Of the two Pinot selections available to order by the glass, a WA/CA and a French selection, the FR was very oxidized - it was surprising that the server didn't know this. It's a cute shop with little space which could potentially foster lively conversation, but their resident bar fly dominated the conversation and used the opportunity to self promote and aggrandize. read more

Friendly shop, my favorite, great selections by the glass or by the bottle. Clair suggested a bottle of bubbly that was really good and didn't break the bank. Many wine tastings by the glass during the month (usually 4 or 5 tastes a tasting) from all over the State and all over the Globe. read more

The Good Drop is more than a sweet wine shop in Bend, it's a congregation for the friendliest people you'll ever meet. Owner, Sarah Worley, daughter or husband will greet you with a heart hello and lead you to the best bottle of Oregon wine. It's a small shop so you won't get an expansive collection of Oregon wines, but you will get a well curated collection. Best in Bend! read more

A specialty store dealing with fine wines in downtown Bend is a brave undertaking in a down economy given the store's specialty (per the website) "...dedicated to helping wine lovers like you find vintage wine, hard to find wines, and "trophy" wines to add to your impressive collection or enjoy now with friends or family." We don't do as much business with The Good Drop as we'd like as wine collecting and trophy wines are above our pay grade...literally...and not where our passion lies as wine drinkers. But for those who are looking that direction, Chris Oatman, one of the owners of this shop can't be beat.. And one of the Good Drop's best assets is Chris himself; who we've come to know well, again per his website. " My connections and knowledge of red wine, white wine and even sparkling wine makes it easy for you to get your favorites, discover new favorites, or get mainstream wines that you can drink everyday..." So one of the great advantages for we everday wine drinkers, is that Chris has great wine buys of really good wines available too! With the holiday season upon us, it seemed the perfect time to do this Yelp review, as Chris is among the best experts we have ever met on the breadth and depth of champagne and other sparkling wines. If there was ever a perfect time to introduce yourself to the Good Drop Wine Shoppe it is now when sparkling wines are the perfect holiday toast and holiday gift too. read more

After a few days of drinking great local beer, I was done! We found this small wine shop on the way home, about an hour before they were set to close. Sarah and her husband were extremely helpful and friendly with helping us score some amazing Pinot Noir. Sarah chatted about each bottle, how they were farmed, the farmers techniques and etc; and each bottle turned out to be amazing, so much so that after this review I am sending her an email since I cannot remember the name of the wine and the wife recycled the bottle before I wrote it down. So if you love your wine, you MUST check these guys out. According to them, they strive to have wines you cannot find in your local stores, in order to be unique. Too bad they are not closer by us, love this place! read more

We've been here a couple of times and really enjoyed ourselves. We came last year when Willamette Vineyards hosted a tasting and then again recently with girlfriends. Tiny inside just a few chairs, but they have some seating outside, and they have a really good sized selection. Prices are very reasonable and a great way to try some lesser known wines with big flavors. read more

Amazing selection of wine. And such good people working there! Always really knowledgeable and ready with perfect wine suggestions. Last time, David helped us and he was great! We always love sitting out front for a tasting when in town. read more

Fantastic customer service, and a wonderful vibe! Sarah is a legend and her knowledge of wine is second to none. Her wine club is the best thing I've joined since moving to Bend...and the hand written note she adds is one of the best touches ever. read more

Wonderful PNW selection! We picked up a few bottles and also had a glass on their spacious patio. David took great care of us. Thank you Good Drop! read more

What an awesome spot. Initially, walking by, we thought it was just a wine store...but then noticed a couple of tables and a man sitting with a glass of wine. We were in! Let's just say that a few hours later, a few great glasses of wine had been had, great conversations and new friends made, and Beckie had recommended a few awesome wines that we'd never heard of. She also took the time to source a champagne that I like but they didn't have in, and let us know about the upcoming champagne tastings...which we went to and were fantastic. Will definitely become a regular stop on our downtown forays! read more

The Good Drop is a must see, must stop, warm and friendly wine shop. Sarah and her team know wine front to back and have provided a phenomenal range of varietals from around the globe. Eight years of coming here and love it. Every time! Sante! Love. read more

Quaint little shop so I was excited to try some of the local wines. Turns out that none of the wines were local, which would be fine, except for the service we received was awful. Granted, I was dressed down in athletic shorts and a tee since I had been driving all day, but I've never been served more poorly. The pours looked like a cheap bartender pouring cheap vodka shots for college student, about 0.75 oz each and the descriptions sounded like they were being read off a bottle: "this is called x because it's from x valley".... great... read more

Um. Didn't know you could have this much fun in a little hole in the wall. Best wine boss ever, classy AF.

Great location and fantastic wine selection! Cozy little spot to have a glass, with an incredible wine selection for your bottle to take home! The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and can help you find a bottle, no matter your taste. Stop in and check it out. read more

Hands down the best wine shop in Bend. Incredible selection of New and Old World wines. Definitely the place to go for harder to find or small production wines. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The shop has great tasting events, as well! read more

This is our favorite little spot tucked away in downtown Bend! The wine selection is amazing for such a small space. When we are thirsty for a great glass of wine we head to Good Drop! The people that work there are super friendly and know their wine. Besides the wine, we have met so many locals. If you are downtown or visiting Bend stop by and check Good Drop out! read more

We came with a large group and Sarah was very accommodating to each of us. We had a lovely discussion about wines and she offered some wonderful suggestions for me. I'm flying home or else I would have bought some for the trip back. I'll be looking up some of her suggestions when I get back home. Thank you!! read more

This has to be the most fabulous wine shoppe I've ever had the opportunity of being a patron at. The owner is beyond generous and so helpful! They even have quaint outdoor and indoor seating for when you want to sip on some stellar wine. You have to stop by, it's a must see if your in the downtown area of bend! read more

The Good Drop is a special place in Bend and you should absolutely visit it if you are into great wine and good people. Each time, we somehow have an exceptional experience. The owner, Sarah, is knowledgeable and passionate about wine, as you would expect, but also manages to foster an environment where everyone feels like family. We've had some of the best conversation with complete strangers and made great memories here, and we are already looking forward to the next time we get to ...drop... in. Truly though - thank you Sarah for such wonderful experiences. read more

The Good Drop Wine Shoppe is a MUST!!! We were drawn to this shop by its name, my boyfriend giggled and as he said it out loud it made me peak inside. I asked him to come in so I could show him a few of their display cases I had seen earlier this morning via Pinterest(we are first time home owners so Pinterest finds have been my go to lately). As we walked in we were greeted by a stunning women named Amy Moore. Amy chatted with us for a quick minute on the shop displays and through the conversation it lead to us excitedly wanting to taste Oregon sourced wine! Amy has a passion for wine and people, that was easy to see and most importantly feel. We spent some time wine tasting and having the most genuine conversations over a taste of red & rosé. As amazing as the wine was(seriously we were really blown away be the selection in a small town shop) the genuine conversation and warmth of Amy was what kept us there & truly made our experience passing through Bend, OR. To top off the ending of our road trip Amy went out of her way to reach out to the shop owner to find out if any of their wine boxes(yes the decorative boxes displayed in the store) were for sale. They were & wow were we blown away at effort Amy went through to find them down stairs & pull them out one-by-one for us to select from! She truly went above and beyond for my boyfriend & I. We will be back to Bend & we will 100% be back to buy more wine & visit with Amy!!! read more

Little gem in Downtown Bend, small but mighty, and well worth a visit. Sarah was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic as she helped me find Oregon Pinot Noirs that are not available in the SF Bay Area. I learned a lot. She has an excellent selection of Oregon wines at a wide range of prices as well as a great stock of fine wines from around the World. I noticed that they also host tastings and have a wine club. I definitely will return whenever I am in Bend. read more

Stopped in here to pick up a few bottles of wine for an event. The shop is prime real estate on Minnesota Ave, tiny but cute, and a great wine selection. Sarah the shop owner was very helpful at suggesting appropriate wines to pair with my event fare, and they were spot on! I was stoked to find out they have a basement cellar room that they host private parties and tastings too. Will definitely be back! read more

Friendly, fun, and excellent wines by the bottle or glass. This is the perfect spot to enjoy a glass while waiting for your table to open at the nearby restaurants. They will even order take out for you!! Service doesn't get any better. Love this place!! read more

Thanks to Sarah's wonderful recommendations, we had a great wine tasting journey on the way to the Oregon Coast. In particular her suggestion of Winderlea was perfection - a stunning view combined with delicious wines. Thank you, Sarah! You helped make our trip even more delightful. Next time we're back in the Bend area, you're shop will be top of mind for a visit. read more

Fabulous place with a great selection! The owner was in the store and was extremely knowledgeable of the area and the wine! Don't pass it by! read more

This is my second review. I took the original down due to change of ownership. I had posted a one star review due to being very disappointed with recommendation. From the original owners, I asked for sweet desert wine, and out of the three bottles of wine I had purchased (~ $60 spent), none were to my satisfaction. After reading my review, the new owner Sarah reached out to me, and provided me with a bottle she was convinced I would enjoy. She was right!! I got a bottle of "pass the cookies" which was most excellent!! Now I know that GDWS is a place I can rely on for getting some excellent desert wine! read more

The Good Drop Wine Shoppe is the perfect place to pick up an excellent bottle of wine or to stay and sip one of their daily featured wines. Sarah and Becky can help you select the perfect wine. It is a "must stop by" if you are in the Bend area. read more

Being an out of state visitor to Bend I was impressed with Oregon's wines. When visiting Bend I approached the Good Drop Wine Shoppe and suggested periodic shipments of pinot noir from wineries with limited distribution. I talked with Sarah Worley and indicated my interest in pinot noir. My initial shipments were satisfactory but soon I was getting wine way over my price point (some more than $160/btl). I called her and indicated my price point and varietal choice (i.e. pinot) Soon I was getting older vintages of champagne, syrah, cab savignon, chardonnay. I got the impression that whatever didn't sell was shipped to me. Fortunately, my credit card number was changed so that automatic charges stopped. I paid the last bill by check in January, 2020. Despite having paid the bill in full Sarah mailed a bill for the last shipment to my office in March, 2020. On the outside of the letter she prints "One hundred days overdue". I sent her a copy of the cancelled check and haven't received a response. My experience should caution people from participating in a wine club even with explicit instructions and having any confidence in their accounting system. read more

Love this shop! Very helpful in choosing and ordering wine. I look forward to participating in upcoming tastings and events. Sarah is very welcoming and knowledgable (as is her staff). Cannot wait to dip into the recently purchased Angela, an Oregon pinot. Visiting friends bought a Sarah-recommended NZ sauvignon blanc and really enjoyed it. Good Drop is a real jewell read more

Becky at The Good Drop is very knowledgeable and friendly. She pointed us to a Soter sparkling brut rose and invited us to a wine tasting. This wine boutique shop is just what we were looking for in Bend. We wanted to buy our wine from a local shop with a great selection. The Good Drop fits this perfectly with an abundance of positive energy! read more

Love this place -- great selection of wine from France, Washington and my other favorite places. Sara(h) is the best and if the $60 bottle of Pinot you really, really want to get is too much right now, she's got glasses for just $10 a piece. read more

Good Drop is an excellent wine shop. You can find a great bottle here at almost any price point. Not only are you supporting a great local business, but Robert has actually tasted most if not all the bottles he has in the shop. The best part in my opinion though is that you can actually open and drink a glass or two of that bottle you just purchased, while discussing it in detail with a very knowledgeable wine lover. My wife and I wandered in on a Saturday afternoon with a few hours to kill before going to a movie. Lynn had mentioned before that she would like to taste a moderately priced wine next to a more expensive bottle of the same variety just to see if the extra cost was worth it. So Robert suggested a couple bottles at each end of our price spectrum and we settled in for what would come to be known as "The Tempranillo Challange". Despite enjoying wine for many years, Lynn and I are pretty much at the "yum or yuck" stage of wine tasting. Having someone to basically coach us made a world of difference. I think for the first time we both felt like we finally understood what all those lofty adjectives commonly used in wine tasting notes are all about. If I lived in Bend I could easily see myself buying exclusively from Good Drop, its that good. read more

Wow what a find in Bend! My husband and I were visiting from Northern CA and stumbled upon this place. Robert, the owner helped us pick out a bottle of champagne, a white and a red for a celebratory dinner last night and his recommendations were spot on. He really knows his stuff and has a very unique ensemble of wines. Everything we had I would have again and look forward to ordering some interesting Willamette Valley Pinot Noirs from Robert in the future. A gem of a place in Bend not to missed. read more

We stopped in for a bottle of wine and had an amazing evening of wine and conversation with the shop owner Sarah and her husband. Very knowledgeable, helpful and a great time. read more

So pretentious! We wanted a bottle under $25 and the gal behind the counter didn't give us the time a day. Seemed like a small but good selection of wine. But with that attitude, no thank you! Walk up the street to The Wine Shop and Beer Tasting Bar! read more
