This is a calm, quaint little spot down at the Depot-End of town that's perfect if you want a tasty meal and some good wine(s). They have a Pickle Pizza (don't knock it 'til you try it) that is just out of this world! I honestly haven't had anything bad there. They also have a decent selection of beers to choose from, in case wine isn't your thing. There is both indoor and outdoor seating for whatever your preference is. The patio is well-covered, so if anyone is trying to stay out of the sun, they've thought of that. Kelly took care of my friend and I, as we decided to go to Claremont instead of braving the crowds at The Upland Lemon Festival this past Sunday. Kelly was an absolute ray of sunshine and took great care of us. We spent a good amount of the afternoon chilling on their patio sipping on Sangiovese, and snacking on the Corn & Tortilla Dip, as well as the Pork Belly appetizer. All were wonderful! NOTE: For the next month or two, their menu will be slightly limited, as they are renovating their kitchen. There's still PLENTY of great stuff to choose from and enjoy, though. read more

A month later .... Officially a regular at Grafted Cellars. Obsessed with every edible item on their menu so I'm here on a weekly basis. Omar the bartender is still as wonderful as Day One. I was finally able to figure out his last name. (It wasn't given out willingly and he made me guess after dropping a single hint). Will be on my way to collect my free bottle of wine for the month of June. Grafted Cellars is such a lovely place. I've met new friends as well as reunited with old ones. So glad I've found a place to be able to call "my hangout". read more

Came here on a Thursday evening for pizza. We were seated outside, which was such a vibe. Twinkle lights, wooden furniture, and succulents made it really cozy. It wasn't very busy, though there was a paint night happening inside, which was fun to see. We ordered two pizzas, but the wait ended up being about 40 minutes, which was much longer than expected. When the pizzas finally arrived (we got the pickle pizza and the charcuterie), they were definitely flavorful, but a bit too salty for our taste. We ended up taking most of it home and eating it with lots of water on the side. Maybe we should have come here for the wine instead of the pizza since that's what the name of this place suggests. read more

I've been to Grafted Cellars in Claremont a couple times with my girlfriends, and we always have such a great time, especially because of the fun menu items and events! Weekly Events: Grafted Cellars regularly hosts various events throughout the week, such as pictionary, paint nights, and trivia. My friends and I have come by to participate in trivia several times, and always leave looking forward to the next event. The trivia questions and categories are always well thought out and can be incredibly niche (which is a good thing, especially for trivia aficionados -- I can't count the number of times I've heard "What is the tallest mountain range in the world?" at other trivia sessions. It gets old.) Ambiance: The interior is so cute! There's a bit of a cozy cottage vibe going on, with the exposed beams and how intimate the space feels. Service: The servers are friendly and check in just the right amount -- enough to ensure that you get your drink/food orders in regularly, but not too much (to distract from the trivia at hand lol). Food/Drinks: Our go-to order is normally the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza, which is made fresh to order and comes to the table piping hot. Also, it seems that seasonally, Grafted Cellars comes up with some fun wine flights and pairings -- we especially enjoyed the Valentine's candy and Girl Scout cookie pairings. Such a nice way to have a little bit of whimsy while catching up with friends. Parking: Parking can be a little tricky, since there's only so much street parking shared amongst all the boutiques and restaurants that are concentrated in this area. But I find that I'm normally able to find something within a reasonable amount of time if I circle around the block a couple times. All in all, always a fun time! My friends' and my go-to spot for good wine, good conversation, and good trivia! read more

Service is good and they were honest about pizza not being available when I booked a reservation for my mom's birthday. I used the 4 people wine tasting deal from Groupon and asked if my cousin could possibly use his and they said 1 Groupon per table. That's fine and all but I would think they would make an exception when mostly everything from their menu was not available (the pasta was sold out) so very limited items to order and we were all looking forward to the pizza. :/ appetizers that we did try were pretty yummy and I liked how they served the wine tasting (for 4 people) in the center so my group of 9 people could try, just kinda expected more for a large group and my mom's birthday considering most of their items were not available that evening. It's still quaint and a cute spot to try. read more

Very nice selection of Red wine! Interior design simple and cozy. Attentive service. Kitchen oven not available at this time not sure when will be online for pizzas. read more

Trivia: I was totally unaware of the grafting act with wines from Europe in America. According to their website, how long has grafting been happening to "solve a worldwide hardship in grape growing?" I've been to Claremont twice in my life. I've been to Grafted Cellars both times. On the first visit I made the mistake of leaving without a couple bottles of their wine. I didn't make that mistake the second time. I had delicious wines during both visits. The complimentary tasting flight (because my friend is a wine club member) was superb. The vegetarian charcuterie plate full of cheeses and breads and spreads perfectly complimented the wines. Highly recommend! read more

Food 4 Ambiance 5 Service 4.5 Great spot near the colleges. Very reasonable prices. The pizza crusts was delicious. But our pizza was too sweet. The wines are very introductory and basic . There's no explanation of what they are. You're given a list and you pick. The service staff is there for food and not the wine experience. I recommend going there for the food and trying wines that you may like but don't expect a wine tasting experience. I will be back for the food. Try it out. Bon appetit read more

Grafted is a gem. Service is good and the wines are top-notch. Bring back the rum cab! :) Their monthly membership can't be beat if you're in the area weekly! Enjoy the food and drinks (they have beer, cocktails, and mocktails too) inside at a table, at the bar, or outside under the grapevines growing overhead on the patio! read more

The wine was good, but the pizza was not. We got the mushroom and sausage pizza. It was overly salty, and the crust was so thin you had to support it to eat it like a pizza. It just wasn't good. Disappointed that the other Yelpers steered us wrong on this. The charcuterie board was OK. When we were leaving another patron had a huge salad that looked good. I wished we would have tried that instead. We won't be back here. Our server was great, hence the 3 stars read more

Such a super cute wine spot! I have been here a couple of times and it never disappoints. The outdoor area is so nice, the lights make it feel cozy and intimate. Inside is a whole vibe too. It's the perfect place to chill, relax, and sip some wine. Definitely a great spot for a laid-back night out! read more

My wife loves coming here for their goat cheese & pear pizza. The wine is good and they have an intimate ambiance in both the indoor and outdoor dining areas. And for those who prefer beer over wine, I find their IPA is really good! read more

We randomly discovered this place walking around Claremont Village. I have been to Claremont Village many times. And it was my first time spotting this hidden gem. It's such a cute spot. Perfect place to grab brunch and a drink with friends and catch up. There are indoor and outdoor sitting. But I would say outdoor was more lively. I only had couple of drinks here. I will come back for food next time. Also, the service was excellent. Friendly staffs! read more

Cannot say enough about this place! The wine- awesome! The food- delicious! The staff- amazing! Join the wine club it's so worth it!

We visited for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed the wine, food and atmosphere. They were having a trivia night which we did not take part of, but it seemed like everyone was really enjoying the game and a lot of regulars. They have a wide variety of wines and helpful tasting notes you can look up with a QR code. We did a Groupon for two wine flights and a half charcuterie which was a great deal especially with it being our first visit. The half board charcuterie was a very generous portion. We also tried the hot honey pizza which was very fresh and delicious. They offer indoor, outdoor and bar seating. We will definitely be back to try some more food and wines. read more

We came here for our monthly book club meeting. It was a bit chilly out on the patio and I saw a few mosquitoes as well. I really wish restaurants would be sure to spray their outdoor areas if they are promoting dining outside. I look forward to returning and trying out the inside. Because we were outdoors my brie wasn't melting it was cold and chunky and the baguette may have been warm but it wasn't with being served outside. Just something to keep in mind if you are out on the Patio. The interiors looked really nice and the ambiance of the Patio area is very inviting. Probably will be perfect during the summer months. The Lemon Drop was FAN-EFFING-TASTIC! Service was patient... we were a group of over 20 (I believe) sitting in a U-shape. Definitely would like to stop in some other time. Respectfully Reviewed. read more

Grafted Cellars - Rose of Syrah is light and crisp. Pairs great with the hot honey pizza! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Claremont, California

I was craving some wine and charcuterie today and decided to try out Grafted Cellars. Located in the heart of Claremont, it was a quaint place. I sat at the bar for my wine tasting. I decided to embark on a wine flight. It was $25 for 5 wines that you can try out. I tried out the rose and a couple of different red blends. The wines were pretty good, but my favorite was the Pinot Noir casked in a Woodford Bourbon. I ordered extra bread for my charcuterie plate and was charged a hefty fee for that. Also, at the end, I didn't understand why I wasn't shown my receipt before I paid for my bill. read more

Grafted has become one of our go-to places in Claremont. The wines and beer are great, a little something for everyone. The food is delicious (try the pickle pizza, seriously, it works). What keeps us coming back on the regular though is the staff. They are amazing. They always greet everyone with a smile and try to go above and beyond to make your visit enjoyable. Whether you're a first timer or a regular, they treat you ĺike an old friend. My husband and I tend to sit at the bar because that's how we roll. Their patio is comfy, cozy, and dog friendly and the dining room is inviting, especially for private events. Highly recommend! read more

We came to Grafted for Valentine's Day dinner and it was really good! The petit filet and crème brûlée from the Valentine's menu were amazing! I hope they have it again next year. The service was great too as always. Perfect vibe for Valentine's Day. read more

Since I live in the area, I decided to revisit Grafted Cellars since I was in the mood for pizza but not from Pizza N Such. I'm glad I came here because I tried the goat cheese and honey squares, and boy was that a rich appetizer, and in a good way! I love goat cheese. I'm also a fan of honey, so why not the two? Exactly! Try this before you have your pizza. It's awesome. I had the same pizza as I had the first time, and it was made just right. No complaints here. The combination of the two made for a perfect meal. I wasn't hungry still or overly full. The serving sizes were perfect The walk back home was much slower. Food coma was strong this time around. Enjoy if you come here! read more

Went again and took my family. Elizabeth you are soo kind. Thank you for making it a nice experience for my family. It means the world.

What I had: - Warm brie and baguette with honey ($14) - Hot honey pizza ($22) - Sausage and mushroom pizza ($22) - Avocado turkey panini ($16) - Caprese ($14) - Acacia white blend ($11 for the glass) - Riesling amphora ($14) How it tasted: - I have enjoyed pretty much everything I've eaten and drank here. No complaints at all. Why did I give it a five? - It's a quaint indoor and outdoor space that allows dogs, which is a plus for my family. The servers have always been thorough with their suggestions, prompt with service, and overall kind. Verdict? - Give it a shot if you're in the Claremont village area. read more

Cute place in a nice area in Claremont. It's busy but not overly packed and service is quick. I found the hot honey pizza intriguing, but also not sure about it, but I felt adventurous today and gave it a try. It was really good. The honey is not very spicy and not too sweet, it is very subtle. It's a thin pizza, with great flavor, I love a good cheese sauce ratio and they nailed it. I would come back again for this pizza. I'm home still thinking about this pizza. The brownie dessert has a crust on top of the brownie. It was ok, I would try the cookies next time. Wine was also good. Nice staff. read more

Came to this location for a date night. I enjoyed the ambiance. The staff was attentive. We ordered the CHEESE & CHARCUTERIE Board. It was enjoyable and filling for the price. We got a flight of wines. However, out of the five choices I was most excited to try-- they had ran out of two wines. Other than that, it was a pleasant experience for those who enjoy wine tasting. read more

I Iove everything about this place. I have been a member for 11 months and love to see how Grafted has continued to evolve. Their wine? Amazing. The selection is vast and exceptional. The service? Incredible. We have gotten to know many of the employees. They are kind, attentive and friendly. The food? We have tried pretty much everything on their menu at this point. The cheese board is massive, great to share. The hot honey pizza is one of their best items. Plus, they have a constant changing seasonal menu that has had some delicious items (artichoke salad & ahi salad to name my favorites so far). There are a plethora of seating choices with the cutest patio. It's the perfect spot for just a drink, a girls night or date night. I cannot recommend Grafted enough and will continue to tell everyone I know how much I love this place! read more

Wines ok, but they don't make up for the icy service. I agree with all the other commenters, service is cold. I got "Ali" who barely looked at me, never engaged in conversation even though I was sitting at the bar and it was absolutely empty in the place. Very business-only. Management needs to realize that hospitality business also involves smiles and engagement with the customers. IMO "Ali" should be fired. read more
