My best friend and I were on Bainbridge exploring for the day and we decided we wanted a little…read morewine. Bainbridge Vineyards popped up on Yelp and seemed to be one of the better wineries on the island. There was a little parking lot out front we were able to find parking at. When we left there seemed to be a lot of overflow parking along the gravel path. They had live music playing that late afternoon. We decided to do a wine flight tasting which was a lot of fun. There were seating options outside by the tasting room and music. We ended up sitting back in their more green space on some adirondack chairs. This place felt like it was for all ages. We saw everyone from babies to seniors. The space was such a vibe and it was a wonderful place to catch up on summer stories. We ordered our drinks up front and the woman who served us was kind. It was a seat yourself type of place and bus your own table. I loved how local it felt. I really liked the wines we tried on the flight too! I'd recommend this spot.

The host was very friendly and knowledgeable. We weren't a fan of the mainly white option, and the preselected tasting menu. We sat outside near a heater, luckily if not I would have been cold, on this rainy day. Also they only waive tasting fee with 3 bottles of wine.

There's a beautiful garden in the back, but if you stay inside you'll be treated to lovely music--either live on Fridays and Saturdays or via an actual turntable and vinyl on Sundays.

Alphonse and Donna are lovely people, and I could talk wine/travel/art/photography/life with Alphonse for hours. In fact, I have!

We visited Fletcher Bay Winery as a group of 10, including children, and unfortunately the…read moreexperience was extremely disappointing. The issue was not that the winery had expectations for a large group. The issue was the complete lack of communication and the way those expectations were handled. When we arrived, no one informed us that there was a minimum spend requirement or that our group needed to order a certain amount immediately. Several people in our group had already started ordering, including a bottle of wine and a glass of wine, and we were still settling the kids, reviewing the food options, and deciding what else to order. Within just a few minutes of sitting down, staff began pressuring us to order food. Shortly after that, another staff member approached us and told us we needed to clean up after ourselves and meet a minimum spend of around $500. None of this had been clearly stated before we sat down, and we were given no reasonable time to get organized as a group. If a winery has a large-party policy, minimum spend, or specific expectations for families with children, that should be communicated upfront, clearly and respectfully, before guests are seated. Instead, the interaction felt rushed, uncomfortable, and unwelcoming. We had every intention of ordering more wine and food, but the tone and handling of the situation made the experience feel transactional and unpleasant. Fletcher Bay may be a nice spot for smaller groups, but based on our experience, I would not recommend it for families or larger walk-in groups unless their policies are made much clearer and their hospitality improves.

I've done plenty a Washington wine tasting from Woodinville to Leavenworth and Eastern Washington and I have never been so impressed with every single wine I tried. The flavors were bold but balanced, and all wine I tasted was amazing. It's also great to support a local business. Additionally I also really appreciated that they had a mini cheese plate and it was super reasonably priced. As a solo adventurer it was nice to have a single person portion. I didn't have to pay more for a portion that was too large. I wish more eateries thought about portion size and single parties. I don't think I could have had a better wine tasting experience. Thanks Amelia Wynn Winery!

We dropped in recently after the brewery next door wouldn't allow entry to minors (what's up with THAT law, Washington State??), so my wife and I brought our teenagers into Fletcher Bay and kicked back with some drinks and a delicious Salmon dip. Service was exceptionally friendly, and the laid-back vibe was exactly what we needed after a day exploring Bainbridge. We particularly loved their 2022 Pirate Red vintage -- a bold, fruity red blend from Washington's Walla Walla Valley. The kitchen serves a solid selection of tasty small plates, and there's ample seating both inside and along the sidewalk. A great spot to visit before you catch the ferry back to Seattle!

I searched for the best place to have lunch on Bainbridge. I hope they do not close until I am very old! Burrata salad to share between two or three is a non-negotiable. Octopus as an entree, very tender and not charred to death, has to either be shared or have it as a main entree. The puree below was amazing! The burger is made to temperature. An amazing burger. They are already upscale, but their burger buns are too thick and rich for my dad's liking. Maybe go for our basic Franz or something thinner and less dense (options for some). The mussels were amazing! The wine was great as well. One of the best meals I have had in a long time. Keep up the great work! Thank you Amelia Wynn!

You can really feel that passion throughout the experience. It's about a 15 minute walk from the ferry and highly recommended if you're visiting the island. The cider flavors were creative and unique, and you could clearly taste the flavors they were going for in each one. Beyond the cider, they also have an awesome selection of board games and even a Super Nintendo system, which made the experience even more fun and nostalgic. I also love that they allow outside food, making it a great place to hang out and spend some time. Such a fun local business with great people, unique ciders, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE "Sweet Ass Bourbon"
