A lovely selection of wines and a garden-style patio with a simple but delicious menu of items to choose from. My wife and I shared both a roasted chicken sandwich and a bench burger and both really hit the spot along with our many wine samplings. Each plate also came with a small side salad. A lovely spot to fretter away an afternoon! read more

The cutest little farm to table patio restaurant on the way to Naramata!! I came here for lunch on a Friday afternoon and this was the most serene patio with a beautiful atmosphere and delicious food. I had the prosciutto with a side of bread and it was to die for. We also tried the pasta and ciabatta sandwich. All was great and you could really taste the freshness of the ingredients. They even grow their food right on site. For dessert we had the lemon tart and espresso ice cream. The lemon tart was the star of the show, not too tart not too sweet. We were seated quickly and our server was attentive and helpful. There was even a little dog going around to greet the customers!! One thing to note is that they do not take reservations, so I would recommend getting there early to ensure a table. Overall great experience and I can't wait to come back. read more

This is a stunning winery and vineyard on the Naramata bench in the Okanagan. It is well worth the drive and reservations are a must if you plan on dining. Lunch is served from 11:30 am-3:30pm. A beautiful afternoon on this gorgeous patio! With stunning views of Lake Okanagan, superb service and absolutely wonderful food this is definitely a destination location. We tried the gnocchi with spicy lamb merguez sausage, vegetables and a celery & saffron cream broth topped with delicious horseradish chips. The gnocchi and all the trimmings were outstanding. The Lake Breeze Pino Gris was a perfect pairing for lunch. If you are so inclined, you can enjoy a courtyard tasting. Although I highly recommend making a reservation for both lunch and a wine tasting. We will definitely be back! #Mike Dadson #Drmichaeldadson #Langley #counsello read more

Beautiful food. Beautiful wine... despite a complete lack of customer service. Absolutely incredible food. You will not be disappointed. It may have been the best pasta I ever tasted. Flank steak amazing! And the bruschetta when we first arrived was generous sized and incredible. Their veggies are from the garden! Locally sourced pasta. Honestly, food was soooo good! The servers just dumped this beautiful food on the table. We kept asking questions only to have our server reluctantly give the details. It could have been enhanced so much by the presentation! Unfortunately we had to ask about every single one of our meals. Otherwise we would have no clue. There is zero information given. Young servers that seat to you and walk away with no attention or care given whatsoever. The service is pretty shitty. They are lovely friendly girls who clearly have no experience. We did not meet one professional server despite a 90 minute lunch . We went to go buy wine and stood around for 20 minutes only to be snapped at that we weren't standing in a Covid free area. The wine and food is lovely. The scenery is beautiful. Don't be deterred by the crappy service. Still worth it. read more

Lake Breeze Vineyards - Ordering wine! - Wineries Near Me - Naramata, British Columbia

We have always enjoyed Lake Breeze wines. During our trip to the Okanagan we tried making a reservation for wine tasting but they were fully booked. We decided to see if we could just walk up and ask for a wine tasting. The hostess checked and we were told that if we could wait 15 minutes they could accommodate us. The service was superb. I can't remember the name of our server - sorry. It might have been Catherine. She was effervescent, had a great personality but at the same time was very knowledgeable. Of all the wineries that we toured Lake Breeze is one of the best at dealing with the pandemic. When we were shown our wine barrel outside for our wine tasting the wine had already been poured, there was a sheet on the table with a description of the wines available for tasting and on the other side of the sheet was a price list and order form for ordering the wines. Our server stood back from our table but she spoke loudly and clearly and provided great information. I hope I got her name correct. She is terrific. At the end of the tasting I mentioned 1 of their wines that I really liked but it wasn't of the tasting menu. She promptly said she thought there might be a bottle available at the bar and she offered to give me a sample if it was available. Shortly after she returned with the bottle and poured me a sample. We've always enjoyed Lake Breeze wines and find their prices to be very reasonable for the quality of their wines. Our wine tasting experience was one of the best of the trip. Thank you Lake Breeze read more

This place is wonderful! Excellent service, even when they were completely full. Great food. Beautiful setting overlooking the lake. Highly recommend this winery and restaurant! read more

The patio is the best! We try to lunch here every visit to the Okanagan. It is just beautiful, nice view, nice breeze (hence the name), good food. There is just nothing to not like about it. My only complaint would be I would like to see something on the menu between the full mains and salads. We got around that by sharing the salad greens (bacon and blue cheese - what can go wrong?) and the rabbit pasta. Perfect amount of food so we really didn't need the raspberry chocolate bread pudding that we had to go with it - divine. The tasting room was crowded, always is, but had not problem getting room at the bar. Our 'person' was really knowledgeable and did get us some to try which weren't on they day's tasting menu - which worked out well as those were the ones we ended up buying. You can't do ALL the wineries so this one should fall under the must dos and allow time for lunch. read more

If Google maps had its way perhaps we would been driving to the table side - thankfully logic prevailed and we noted the actual parking area before "arriving to our destination". Having not reserved we approached the hostess area and were advised of "someone will be right with you" four to five times before a woman presented with an iPad as a "waiting list keeper". Once we were entered her database with a cell number they would text us. We reviewed the menu and strategically planned what wines to enjoy with the meals chosen. Ironically be warned if you find yourself needing the restroom to plan to lineup for the only two available with the added bonus and taunt of a flowing fountain between both the two doors where the bathroom is. Because yes, they really want you to have to go sooner while waiting your turn in line. What!? The text arrived so we meandered back to the hostess area and proceeded to wait a bit more. Finally we were seated in the absolutely furthest table from the hostess area right beside a table of 10 drunk and very frank speaking women. Its a skill to be sitting so near and to try not to laugh at something their table innocently states in their drunkenness about their personal lives... Anyway the chill of October was making itself known so my wonderful boyfriend scored me one of the thin blankets i had initially turned down not realizing how cool it was becoming. We ordered the Bench Burger and the croque monsieur. The meals and suggested wine ordered our food arrived quickly. Each morsel and wine sip unlike anything ever tried. Utterly fantastic. We indulged in the chocolate dessert having then noted they just ran out of sticky pudding. It was incredible. Once we settled the bill we went over to the pay-to-taste building and simply purchased the wine we enjoyed at our meal. Wonderful. read more

This place was such a treat! Happened to drive by and see they had a bistro for lunch. There was a wait for a table but they took our number while we did the tasting. Staff was friendly, food was delicious. We absolutely loved the pasta and grilled cheese. Unfortunately, they ran out of Muscles before we sat down. Would highly recommend this place for lunch. read more

Most of the Wine is offered by the bottle or glass. Once you are finished, or while you are waiting, you can visit the tasting room and buy wine to take home at normal retail prices. read more

Lake Breeze Vineyards - A view of the Lake Breeze Vineyards and Lake Okanagan - Wineries Near Me - Naramata, British Columbia

It's a boring name--let's get that out of the way. Most wineries follow the pattern of sushi restaurants, completely lacking originality in their names. There are exceptions--Burrowing Owl, Silver Sage, Kraze Legz, but for each of those, there's a Road 13 (literally located on Road 13), Hillside, and Lake Breeze. My girlfriend and I were on vacation through Okanagan wine country. Over six days, we visited sixty wineries. That's sixty wineries, not an exaggeration. We ended the trip with 120 bottles acquired. Lake Breeze is one of the larger wineries in Naramata, matching the size of Poplar Grove or Hillside, but of those three, I enjoyed Lake Breeze the most. Yes, there's a bit of a corporate feel for it. Employees sell you more than the owners or winemakers directly. But the winery itself is stunning...when you disregard the actual tasting room. It's shockingly small for a building this size, with only a few feet of clearance between the bar and the wall. A $3 tasting fee is lower than most others that ask for $5. It's well made with ample selection of merchandise and related products; it's just a surprise the actual room is so small. The premises are vast, with several unconnected buildings inviting a fleeting if not enjoyable stroll, a rarity for the region where real estate is apparently rationed and rival winery tasting rooms are literal stone throws apart. Lake Breeze features signs to guide between locations; the most recommended being the Patio restaurant. Annoyingly enough, for some reason, the majority of review sites have split the entries for Lake Breeze and its onsite restaurant, only known as the Patio restaurant--way to follow that theme of original and thought-out names. Dealing exclusively with the winery, it's still more than worth the visit--I'd only recommend going early to avoid a crown, because if there's one, good luck squeezing in that tasting room. Lake Breeze is another great location in a region already profuse with praise. Just ignore its drab bottles and uninspired name. Seriously, we took our friends on a wine trip a few weeks ago, and they elected to avoid Lake Breeze judged exclusively on how boring the name was. It's still a great winery...that's just what happened. The Patio restaurant, is unbelievably, a patio. I know...you braced for some Mennonite Shyamalan-like twist there, like the patio was upside-down and people hung from swings or something. Wow...that's actually kind of awesome thinking about it. Regardless, it's a patio, but an attractive one, offering shade vital given the encroaching heat associated with Climate Change. We enjoyed a slight breeze on our lunch between other wineries, one flowing from the nearby lake, a...Lake...Breeze...if you will. The menu was obviously changed since last there as we have photos of an impressive charcuterie no longer offered on their menu. I know, right. What modern, trendy restaurant does not offer a charcuterie or antipasto plate? I thought for winery bistros, it was mandatory. It might have been a special that day, but its exclusion now is bizarre. What was also bizarre was the dog chained up nearby that only occasionally acknowledged the crowd that constantly tried to get his attention. I mean that was weird--a dog near a patio restaurant not interested in the food. Maybe he was one of those prole dogs that only enjoys barbecue. I did enjoy the food, but the view was the real draw, more than worth the pause in a wine journey. Sit back, enjoy, and then move on. Of all the restaurants in Naramata wine country, the Patio is one of the best for lunch. read more

Lake Breeze is not as big as some of the other wineries in this area, but it's still worth visiting. Beautiful buildings and patio, I was impressed by the surroundings. Standout for me was the limited Seven Poplars sauvignon blanc. read more

While on a winery tour of the Naramata area we stopped here for long lunch to enjoy the view and get some delicious lunch. The view is absolutely amazing, although we weren't sitting right by the edge, no had some obstruction. The decor is very French bistro and gives the place a relaxed look and feel; the surrounding buildings make you feel like you are living in a fairy tale...think Rapunzel waiting for her prince charming! We ordered a bottle of Bubbly which was quite reasonably priced and shared a charcuterie appetizer which had some great cheeses and cold cuts...only complaint was the small size. We also shared the mushroom carpaccio salad which was also tasty but not too exciting... Overall, I'll come back again to try more items of the menu and soak in the sun while looking at the amazing views of the lake! read more

What a lovely compound on the shores of Ok lake. Really enjoyed their Seven Poplars Chardonnay - despite normally being a blend fan. Rich and buttery! And yes, their buildings were gorgeous. Like a villa in Europe, with cobblestone buildings. Word was that the building under construction was for a 'silent partner'. Wonder just how silent that partner will be :D. read more

Aside from the beauty of its location and the food experience that most of the reviews that you read, the winery has annually gone down hill with respect to the service in the tasting room. The help consists of in experienced people that pour you wine with no personality. Most of them don't know answers to your questions and seem like they prefer that you don't ask. Have been here 3 years running. Don't think we'll be back for a while. They were great when they were an up and coming winery. By the way the labels need work read more

Best appetizer EVER - the charcuterie If you'r a fan, good portions, good variety - super tasty, nice, and fun to share! Great view Great wine Simply a flagstone patio with trellises, but it works amazingly well with the view, heat, wine, etc Great food! read more

Our first winery stop during our recent trip to Naramata. Our group was made of nine people and we had a reservation for lunch on their patio and also had the opportunity to get some wine tastings in. The view from this patio was amazing. It was a beautiful backdrop to go with an amazing lunch and of course, good company. I had the Croque Monsieur with the root vegetable slaw. The sandwich was made with smoked ham, Gruyère, on house baked sourdough rye, topped with spice jar mustard, and béchamel. It was sooo delicious!! I'd go back and eat it again. The flavours came together really well. My boyfriend had the linguini with clams. It was also very well prepared. I shared a bottle of vinoigner with a few others in my party and had a really great lunch experience. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

The food was very good to excellent but the portion sizes for the price they charge was a major disappointment. If your going to spend 200+ for a meal there is a higher expectation. Not sure what other alternatives there are. Location was phenomenal, well done. I think this wd be a good place to go for an appetizer and a glass of wine. read more

We had lunch here in the midst of a wine tour day... We ordered the roast chicken sandwich and croque Monsieur. The Croque was REALLY yummy and the chicken sandwich was good but not as amazing. The wines were decent but nothing special. Atmosphere of the lunch patio was gorgeous. read more

The wine tasting was good. Knowledgeable staff. The patio has a wasp problem. There were wasps swarming all the tables, couldn't enjoy our food due to fear of being stung. Had to eat as quickly as possible to get the food away from the wasps. Wouldn't return unless they solve thE problem. read more

A real 10/10 for an amazing winery experience. The grounds around the vineyard is beautifully maintained with a nice courtyard, tasting room and patio restaurant overlooking the lake. Love the wine here. Doesn't get any better than this! read more

The food and service were very good. While the bbq pork pork sandwich was really good, the burger was outstanding. Okay so it was a cool and wet day. Came to the winery specifically for lunch. While the seating is all outside, they do a decent job of covering the tables to keep you dry in the rain. We would come back for the food and maybe even try the wine next time. Yes, would even do it again in the rain. read more

I send all my customers here and they have always come back with rave reviews. The excellent food, wine, service, and view makes this a winning combination. read more

This is a review for the Patio as much as the vineyard. Being a long time Lake Breeze fan we finally made it down to the Patio for lunch. Every one at our table of five had a wonderful meal paired with an excellent glass of wine. FYI I had the pasta with the braised rabbit and fresh peas, truly wonderful and right at the top of best pasta dishes I have ever had. read more

Terrible experience here, unfortunate because we were so excited! Had a booking for 4 people at 4:15 and arrived 10 minutes late under the impression that there was a 10 minute grace period. Upon arrival it became clear that they had mistake a group before for our group and gave away our reservation, there last time slot for the day. after staff had even admitted there was a 10 minute grace period, meaning we would have fallen within it, they refused to do a tasting with us. we attempted to reason that we fell within the time or even that we would take 4 tastings instead of 6 (this tasting was paid in advance) but staff were super rude and condescending. This also meaning that they gave our PREPAID reservation to another group, because they did not double check the name (which they also admitted to us), meaning we paid for another groups wine tasting. Not only are staff poorly equipped with basic customer service skills (i.e., empathy, conflict resolution, problem solving, flexibility, understanding ect..) they were condescending, which leaves an unfortunately bitter taste in your mouth. Regardless of the wine, I recommend avoiding institutions like this. read more

We had to wait 45 minutes for a table for lunch but while waiting, the wine tasting was great (I particularly enjoyed the gewürztraminer, merlot and Pinot noir). The lunch was really good too - sitting outdoors on a nice spacious patio with a great view. I ordered the dungeness crab salad with shiitake mushrooms and bacon vinaigrette, which was an entree sized appetizer, and shared the tagliatelle with zucchini and prawns, which was perfect. Everyone enjoyed their meals (including the omelette and panino). read more

My husband and I were spending a day visiting the local wineries and came upon this place. The surroundings are wonderful and the patio is set up beautifully. Looks lovey on a sunny summer day. There was a bit of a wait to be seated for lunch but it was worth the wait. Really enjoyed our lunch would come back again. Not sure if you can, but would highly recommend you book in advance. read more

Go for the outdoor view. Food and service was good. Avoid the potato salad. A lot of children. Try the various small glasses of wine.

The Patio @ Lake Breeze Beautiful Spot Stopped for lunch with friends after some wine tasting. A beautiful spot with great service and nice food. It was a bit chilly so the staff gave is wonderful blankets and when it stared to sprinkle moved us inside to a lovely spot. Dined on a delightful charcuterie platter with several nice salamis, cheese and antipasto. Our friends enjoyed the bench burger and chicken sandwich. The food was delightful and setting lovely. read more

My brother was visiting and we popped in for a late lunch and tasting. We shared the bruschetta and spring salad with gelato to finish.

A favourite on the Naramata Bench wine tour! The gardens are divine and the food exquisite! We took my elderly parents here for lunch and they let us make a reservation (normally only for large parties) so we would have comfortable seating in the shade and room for the walker and canes. My parents couldn't stop raving about the whole experience! The hostess greeted us by name when we arrived and the superior service was kept up for our entire visit! read more
