My husband and I are current members here and we absolutely love this place. All of the wines in their lineup are pretty amazing, especially if you're a red wine lover like we are. My favorite is the exclusive red wine! The views are beautiful, and the atmosphere inside is so toasty, warm, and cozy it's the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Rick was super kind, welcoming, and very informative, which made our visit even better. This winery is very kid and family friendly, the prices are great, and the tastings are always enjoyable. One of the best perks of being a member is getting free tastings anytime you visit, which makes stopping by even more worth it. I also really enjoy their raspberry cider. It wasn't on draft today, but they do feature it on draft during events so definitely come by when you get the chance! Overall, always a great experience. read more

We had the best time at this lovely winery. The first stop on our tour of wineries and our favorite. The winery had great tasting selections, they served food, had a great selection of cheeses and the cutest store at the back where you could purchase local crafts and foods. There was plenty of seating and lots of wine to taste. The staff is absolutely wonderful, will answer all your questions and they have plenty of stories tell. No need to feel like you need to dress up. This winery has a casual and comfortable atmosphere. Be sure to stop in! read more

We have been coming here for years and are proud wine club members. Each season brings a standout release, and they consistently produce several fantastic varietals. Beyond the wine, one of our favorite traditions is their daily BBQ in the vineyard. Start with a tasting in the inviting indoor tasting room, where we have always received phenomenal service. Then grab a bottle of your favorite and head out back to the vineyard. From the BBQ menu, do not miss the pork ribs as they are a must. Pair them with the coleslaw and baked beans, and take full advantage of the complimentary cornbread with honey butter. Seating options include shaded tables or spots right among the vines. Great wine, great BBQ, great service, and a beautiful setting. What more could you want? read more

Context: Family of 4 including 2 kiddos looking for a family friendly dinner and good drink options for the parents. We loved our evening at Lake Chelan Winery! We came on a Thursday evening around 4:30-5pm. We first enjoyed a nice (complementary) wine tasting indoors, and the kiddos demolished the small bites charcuterie board. The wine was good and the staff were very friendly. The Riesling was particularly good considering it was a hot summer day. We then went outside to grab some bbq! Loved the ambiance. Short line around 5:15 pm and food came out quick. I enjoyed the pork ribs, the spicy bbq sauce was great with it. My wife (vegetarian) enjoyed her salad and baked beans, and appreciated the complementary corn bread. Not a lot of GF options unfortunately. The Mac and cheese was ok, my kids didn't finish it which was surprising. The outdoor area is big and the vineyards are beautiful. A lot of space for the kids to run around and play. My wife and I were able to enjoy another glass of wine while they played. You can order wine and beer at the bbq! We will be back! read more

Arrived on a slow Saturday evening (6:00) in November. Friendly service. Not so knowledgeable, but very nice. Good wines. Variety is impressive. Prices are inching up there. Been long time customers and am surprised how ignored we are- not that we expect special treatment, but a hello from the manager whom knows us would be nice. Not sure our membership is appreciated. Fortunately there are 33 other wineries to chose from. read more

Lake Chelan Winery - Shop area, custom sauces and marinades - Wineries Near Me - Chelan, Washington

I'd consider this must do. Great vibe, great service, and very kid friendly. Giving it a 4/5 because although sides and sauces were 10/10, felt like meat was a tad bit over-done. However, very edible. Great rub on the ribs. Drinks wise have beers for all palettes, and plenty of wine choices. Servers looked like high school kids, and flat out killed it. Better than most adults. Shout out to their parents/guardians. Finally, complimentary corn bread. Just what the world needs. Realistically we are looking at a closer to 5/5 than a 4/5. read more

Stopped by for some protein for our meal "to-go" and ordered a chicken breast, barbecue brisket and kielbasa. All three were cooked to perfection and the prices were reasonable for the quality. read more

We drove here and we're confused if they were still open. The parking lot was pretty empty, but then we saw a family park and walk back to a bbq? When we finally walked in, it seemed part Cracker Barrel, part tasting room, part kitchen gadget store. They were also breaking in some new staff, and things were a bit disorganized. But people were friendly. read more

Came here for the BBQ dinner and ordered The Big Time for $115. This is recommended for 4- 6 people but because we have small eaters, we were able to stretch it to 7 with an extra Smoked Quarter Chicken for $10. The Big Time came in a platter with 1 rack of Pork Ribs 6 oz Tri Tip 6 oz Kielbasa 2 Prawn Skewers 1 Teriyaki Chicken Breast 1 medium Baked Beans 1 medium Coleslaw 1 medium Mac n Cheese Meats were BBQ'd too dry and tasteless. Tri tip was tough. Teriyaki Chicken looks sad. Out of everything in the platter, the baked beans was the best. The Smoked Quarter Chicken for $10 is huge, almost looks like a turkey quarter. It's very bland but at least not dry. Staff was friendly though. I wouldn't recommend eating here. read more

THE best winery in the area! Complimentary tastings, regular tasting, cheese boards, board games, vintage decor for purchase, you name it! In summers they even have a BBQ feast. Loved the service and the generous pours. Even got to sample the Mayan coffee cheese. One can easily spend half a day tasting, drinking and just hanging out! Fun, fun, fun! read more

We arrived at 5:30pm on Wednesday evening. my spouse wanted the brisket but they were sold out. Really, less than two hours into service, they are sold out? we ordered the shredded pork, coleslaw, and beans. The pork was dry and instead of shredded it was pulverized. The coleslaw had way, way too much dressing on it. who makes coleslaw such that you have a half cup of dressing left in a single serving dish? it needed less dressing, more carrots and purple cabbage. the free cornbread was good as was the cider. We were both disappointed with our dinner and had to stop in chelan on the way home for ice cream to compensate for the mediocre dinner. read more

What a great place to stop and embrace wine from Chelan. Ron was a great host, fun and engaging. The 2021 Tempranillo is a must have red!

I've visited LCW a few times on my visits to chelan and always enjoy it! There are activities year round. Wine tasting, snacks, super cute gift shop, wine and cider to purchase. I love the BBQ on the vineyard they do in the summer, so fun for the whole family! Great location nestled between the town of Chelan and Manson. read more

Lake Chelan Winery - Blackberry cider and Rose wine - Wineries Near Me - Chelan, Washington

Known for their BBQ, but alas when we stopped by for dinner, they were all out of smoked chicken and baby back ribs (which most of our party wanted). Settled for the BBQ tri tip dinner which came with coleslaw and baked beans $19. The tri tip was underseasoned. Slaw and baked beans were good. Serving was smaller than anticipated -- 3 slices, maybe 2" wide by 3" long, of tri tip, small cup (think those to-go ketchup cups) of slaw and baked beans. It was also inconsistent -- my friend had the trip tip and hers was a tad better tasting. Another in our party had the Rib Meat Sandwich -- Half rack of baby ribs pulled off the bone then slow-roasted with seasoning and raspberry Chipotle $15. This was tastier than the tri-tip. Had a bottle of red (see picture)...it was good. If you're going for the smoked chicken or the baby back ribs, get there early! They open at 4 p.m. We got there around 6 and they were sold out of the chicken and baby back ribs....so disappointed. read more

Lake Chelan Winery - a bottle of wine and two glasses of wine - Wineries Near Me - Chelan, Washington

Lake Chelan Winery is located right between Manson & Chelan. My partner and I visited mid day on Saturday. The tasting room was fairly busy but there was plenty of seating available. We asked to do a tasting, but we were never offered a place to sit so we ended up doing this at the bar (one star deduction). We requested to do 1 complimentary tasting (free) & 1 exclusive tasting. For some reason the woman that was pouring us switched my partners over mid way through to my exclusive tasting. So instead of it being $10 for one exclusive, she charged us $20 even though my partner didn't get all of the wines he was supposed to. I don't know if it's because I don't look elderly or because I have purple hair, but I felt pretty disrespected at this tasting room, so I won't be back. This wouldn't have happened if I was in Woodinville. read more

A great local winery offering a good mix of wines to satisfy any price point or palate for all customers. The service is exceptional and very friendly. They offer a basic tasting at no charge (becoming a rare thing) or an extended tasting for $10 which they'll waive with a bottle purchase. If the incredible wines and superb service wasn't enough, they also offer an extensive selection of premium cheeses and bites to pair with their wines. And be sure to check out all the local gift items (not just stuff for the winery) fir keepsakes of your visit or birthday presents for your friends. Kid friendly, great bbq with outdoor seating (call for seasonal hours), plenty of parking, and be sure to check out their cider selection which is also made on the premises. Overall, a must visit for locals or tourists, read more

I must say that I don't know much about wine or cheese but I enjoyed my experience here and ended up signing up to their Wine Club and got discounts on their wine and other merchandise. Other than wine, they have a good selection of cheese. I really like their Maple Syrup Whiskey cheese. We came too early so didn't stay for their BBQ that begins at 5pm. Their staffs were so friendly and took time to serve. Will definitely come bk when next in town. read more

First time coming here and i wanted the best experience, Highly recommend the baby back ribs. We ordered the full rack, and it comes with beans and coleslaw, the coleslaw was not overwhelming as normaly it would have that tang, but they have a subtle sweet into it. Would also suggest to come early than 6 as people start coming in and had to wait a little for the table. It was a great experience. And don't forget to to have the wine, Stormy white.

Cluttered and busy tasting room but cheese counter had some treats. Wine tasting is pretty hit or miss in Chelan, and so my expectations were LOW... The wine was pretty good and i even bought a few bottles. decent prices. The cheese counter is the real gem in this cluttered barn of eastern washington crafts. Lots of tasting available and some very unique cheeses to buy - nettles? stout? classic cheddar? they have them all. they seem to have hired all the librarians in town to staff the cheese counter because they could not have been nicer! will return for the cheese!! read more

We did Taste of Chelan yesterday and Lake Chelan Winery hands down had the best customer service and food! The ribs were falling off the bone and so good. Our wine expert Robin was AMAZING!

Super fun tasting room, very friendly staff, great wine! My boyfriend and I had a fantastic time wine tasting here on an early spring day. We hung out in the little raised nook part of the shop and munched on a giant charcuterie board. In between sips, I browsed the shop and found some cute earrings. Would definitely come back again!! read more

Since it was rainy the day we were in Chelan, we stopped by the visitor center to ask if there was any recommendations considering the weather. There wasn't. But we received a list of events which included the tour and Grape Stomp at Lake Chelan Winery, so figured why not? The tour ended up being cancelled that day due to the weather. We still did the grape stomp which was set up competition style. You and another person have one minute to see who can output the most grape juice. It was squishy and super cold! Obviously I won, and I got to pick from a couple prize selections. There were 2 plastic cup designs (I went with the cute cow), candy, and I think kiddy knick knacks to choose from. We went inside the tasting room and were surprised to see it crowded given the lack of people we had seen out so far that day. Turns out, tastings are complimentary, unless you want to taste from the exclusive list. Wine is wine so free list it is! You can choose 4 wines per tasting. Between the 2 of us, I believe we tried Falling Cow White, Riesling, Pinot Noir, Stormy Mountain Red, Falling Cow Red, Malbec, Merlot, and Syrah. I think I liked the Malbec and Stormy Mountain Red the most, though we did not get up getting any bottles because we rarely drink wine at home. The tasting room also has a gift shop area with jewelry, socks, toys, home decor, food items, candles, etc. They had wine scented candles and now I'm wishing I had purchased the Merlot scent! But wait, there's more! There's also a cheese counter inside where you can sample and purchase cheese. Of what we tried, the Balsamic Bellavintano was my favorite. I would also go on to regret not buying some there, but at least the cheese shop in Leavenworth had it too. read more

This is definitely a family must-do activity! The BBQ opens at 5 and is very organized and food comes out quickly.

Highly recommend and we will be coming back! read more

Such a fun night! Molly (our server) had amazing energy when she brought us our wine and amazing BBQ. Wine - if you like white/Chardonnay you may love "Falling Cow White" - I sure did. BBQ - Tri tip was my selection. Amazing flavor and juicy. The cole slaw would be classified as my dessert. Not sweet at all but so good that I ate mine and my parents! Love the celery seed addition. Our night concluded with a fun night of live music by The Lake Boys! read more

A group of us visited 3/25/2023. We were so disappointed. The person offering taste poured the smallest out of the other 2 wineries we visited prior. Which is fine, it's a taste. But she had such a "Used Car" sales approach that never stopped. Pitching their membership and all the perks etc, etc.... She only left us for a brief moment to get the next bottle, stayed while continuing the sales pitch. We couldn't even slowly savor and discuss it amongst ourselves. In the end we left feeling that it was all really a big pushy sale gimmick and borderline dishonest when it came to actually purchasing a bottle. The gift shop had a few items with their marketing logo. All other items were Cracker Barrel "style" not winery. She also was so concentrated on selling us a bottle she knowing poured the next taste of white into my little sip of what was left of my red. Looked at me and said, "It won't make much difference". We'll know next year not to return. Cheers read more

Much better when you eat there. Food was great; found ourselves ordering more even after we ate more than we'd thought we could.

My friends and I decided to brave the freezing temperature and icy conditions to head over to Chelan. Chelan is wine country so it's hard to go here and not sample the fruits of the fields. We went on Valentines Day so there was a decent sized crowd of people inside. Anyway, the experience here wasn't very personal. After weeding through the people that were wine-blocking the counter, we finally got a chance to sample some wines. People were wine blocking as there really isn't a large amount of sitting room other than a 5-6 small tables next to the bathrooms (odd placement). I believe I tried a dry Syrah, a Gewurtztraminer, and one other white wine. I thought they were all decent but not the best. I had never had a Syrah before and I actually liked that one the best. The lady overseeing the tasting was very very knowledgeable and friendly. The cheese and meat area was neat too and the cheese was hella good. They also had a chocolate fountain and I just can't even fathom the amount of items that fall into the chocolate, edible and inedible. Plus there were kids playing in it so I was over it. The bathroom was the hot ticket which also was odd as well as it smelled madd funky and you could smell it from the sitting tables. I'd like to try this place again when it's not busy and not Valentines day. It has potential. read more

Great atmosphere! Good place for kids and families! Loved the patio, surrounded by the vineyards! Food was overpriced for what it is. Don't get me wrong it was delicious!! The pulled pork sandwich was to die for! It was loaded with BBQ pork, had to eat a lot of it with a fork before I could eat it as a sandwich because I probably would've been wearing it! It came with 2 sides; coleslaw and BBQ beans. Also upon arrival you get a basket of cornbread. (I would've preferred it after the meal, kind of like dessert to me!) But it was delicious, I prob wouldn't have had room for it after that sandwich though! I just think $18 for a pulled pork sandwich is a bit extreme. I think $12-$14 would be a more reasonable price tag. But after all it is a winery and they always charge more. Obviously I will be back, the food; while expensive was ridiculously delicious!! 2 big thumbs up! read more

Wow, we LOVE THIS PLACE!! Yes I'm shouting! I've had enough good wine to shout. The wine is exceptional and the service friendly.
