Hubby and I often go solo or with friends to enjoy and check out new dining or wineries. Honsberger has become a fave for us. Their patio is wonderful and a good size. They have a quite large fully covered area to the side of the main building, plus then another patio area with tables that have umbrellas. Their pizza is excellent and done in an outdoor pizza oven. They do have other items (mains, salads, appetizers), that are prepared in their main kitchen. One thing we have noticed is that things are taking a bit longer in the Covid world. This is we assume due to precautions taken with cleaning etc. So -- do be patient and just enjoy. We find that they always have some interesting cocktails with their wine as a basis, and some are available in pitcher size as well as by the glass! Reservations for the patio are available via the TouchBistroDine app. You won't find them on OpenTable. The staff are pleasant and knowledgeable. Parking is available at the back and on the side. You do need to have face masks until you get to your table.

I love this sweet Vidal ice wine here! And it's only $15 on sale as of 1/25/2025 for 375 mL until…read moreit's sold out. Amazing price and amazing full sweet ice wine. Their other ice wines are good also but my favorite was Vidal w full flavor and smooth taste. Only 12% alcohol content but I can't taste the alcohol which to me make it a really good wine and is great for me bc I prefer almost zero to 5% alcohol. They also sell jelly and soup and tea and cookies among other snacks. Open and free parking as well as free WiFi. Their fried ice cream for Discovery Pass was amazing. No one make fried ice cream in most places so this was a treat!

Weird place, but worth a stay!…read more We were stopping by St Catharine for a couple of days to peek at the 2024 World Rowing Championships and this looked more interesting than the other available hotels. It's basically a converted mansion. Our room was very comfortable with a modern bathroom (shower stall only, no tub), but had antique-looking furnishings. Modern keypad entry lock though, which was good because we didn't see any staff during our stay. It's weird because there was no front desk and our first night there was only one other car in the parking lot. It was busier the second night but we still never saw any guests other than in the parking lot. It was fun wandering around the beautiful building and grounds. It's also right next to a trail if you want to bike or hike. Only negative was there was no coffee machine in our room, but they had coffee and Tim Horton donuts downstairs. You could also hear water in the pipes in our room when another guest was showering, but overall it was pretty quiet.

The ambiance includes fine china teacups and saucers, along with three-tiered dishes, classical music, and cloth napkins. The tables and chairs were comfortable, along with a display of various tea ornaments, which included some for sale as well. The food was absolutely wonderful; everything was homemade, which included an abundance of cookies, two different types of scones, and large tea sandwiches on different types of bread (e.g. salmon on a croissant, cucumber and cream cheese on raisin bread, etc.). The food was fresh and well-prepared! Service was top-notch; we were given the utmost attention during our stay, even conversing with our waiter about the various events that the tea room had hosted over the years. Was impressed with how knowledgeable about tea our server was, and passionate as well. Will definitely recommend this tea room to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious tasting experience!

The short review: We 100% recommend Sound of Harmony!!! They did a phenomenal job!…read more The long review: From the very beginning, they made the whole process very easy for us - not only the DJ and music selection elements, but the entire wedding. We had an initial walk-through with Shane (owner/manager), Steve (MC) and Ross (DJ), who asked us a few questions so they could better understand us and make recommendations for our wedding - e.g. what kind of music we like, how did I my wife and I meet, how would we describe each other, etc... This walkthrough was very helpful as we had no idea what we were doing and gave us a good idea of what to expect and what we needed to prepare in the coming months. To add another layer of difficulty, we were trying to coordinate a wedding in Niagara on the Lake, ON, while living in Boston, Massachusetts. They checked-in with us from time to time with more elements to consider and to discuss the details of the timeline for our wedding. As we got closer to the event date, we had a few Skype sessions with Steve, our MC. We provided him with some very ambiguous and open-ended information about our bridesmaids, groomsmen and parents that he was able to, somehow, turn into beautiful introductions for each person before they gave their speeches. Steve not only went above and beyond prior to the event to make us feel comfortable with how things were going to go, but during the event as well - introducing his great sense of humor throughout without overpowering the event. Steve was so beloved, in fact, that at the end of the event much of the wedding party asked to have them join them for drinks while they continued the celebrations that night. Ross was the DJ during the event. As a half "American", half Ukrainian wedding, we threw a very complicated set at him. We gave him songs that were in another language with varying styles that he needed to balance with a mix of traditional jazz and 90s pop music. He was able to pull this off without a hitch and read the crowd very well. Ross was great about taking requests from the guests. We had a diverse group of people - with equally diverse tastes - whose requests he was able to satisfy and blend into the overall style/feel we wanted for the evening. We also had Sound of Harmony provide blue uplights - which we highly recommend as well. It added a nice feel around the room where we felt something would have been missing otherwise. It's a small addition, but makes a big impact. We couldn't have asked for a better team to DJ our event. Working with them was by far the easiest part of wedding planning. The day of the wedding we still had a lot of things to keep in mind and take care of but the DJ and the MC were not one of them. We are truly thankful for all their hard work! They absolutely nailed it!

If it weren't for Groupon, I would've never of heard of this smaller winery, Sue-Ann…read more Tasting room is located in the kitchen - modern and high-end, but approachable - of the house. While the production takes place in the neighbouring buildings. I had a Groupon for 2 wine tastings, but Brad poured for all 4 of us! He was very personable, just pouring based on our palate, and did tell us a bit about the winery and wines. Whenever I do tastings, I look for a bit of this storytelling aspect! Because we were standing around a kitchen island during the tasting, it felt more like a bunch of friends enjoying a chat. Nice and relaxed, but also informative. Tastings were $5/3 samples, but Brad did pour another wine that he thought we'd be interested in! Brix, the winery dog, was soo friendly! If you haven't stopped by this particular wine region - or even Sue-Ann - this is a definite must-stop!

I've…read morebeen to two other wineries around the area, I did have a good time, but this place gave a bit more for the price! The only difference about this winery was that they did not offer the full out walk around tour. This groupon included a reserved spot for two, 3 different wines to choose from (red, white or rose), and a charcuterie board with various types of meats and cheeses. Everything tasted really good and fresh, and the lady helping us was so sweet! She made our experience a memorable one. I ended up buying the red wine to take home (I'm more of a white wine type of person, but the red wine was AMAZING here). I will definitely recommend this winery to others. If you come across the groupon, you should totally get it, it's worth the price!

This is the fourth time I've been to their winery and they never disappoint. As a group of consultants from the LCBO we were greeted with an array of wines and an in depth tour.

In hindsight, nothing really wrong with a vineyard being more wine focused with no outdoor festivities going on. They do apparently have events but not when we were there. We came for the wine, had heard they won awards and honestly it was disappointing. We did not go on a winery tour, this is a review of the wine tasting room and flight of wines. The staff was as knowledgeable and kind as can be. Group of 4 each got a customized wine flight of three wines along with a small bag of popcorn. Staff again was super helpful in suggestions for the flight and even offered a sample to help choose the flight. My $15 flight was the Speck Family Reserve Riesling, Speck Baco Noir and Vidal ice wine. Their tasting room is in an old farm house with art upstairs along with ample seating. The Vidal ice wine, a deep amber color, was complex with strong apricot, honey and peach. This was a treat. Perhaps I need to spend more time training my palate to appreciate Baco Noir but this was tough to get through. Drinking a wine probably shouldn't be a task. The Riesling was tart like crabapples. I did find the Three of Hearts rose to be pleasant. Surprising as I'm not a big fan of rose. The rest of our group which included two from Italy were not impressed with the wines. Had high hopes for Henry of Pelham as it's such a well renowned brand. Maybe we tested the wrong wines, should have focused on what they won awards for but they were the ones suggested to us. Before we departed we visited the well aged vines and paid respects at a small loyalist cemetery on their grounds where one of the original Speck brothers is also buried.
