Such an amazing find! After visiting their beautiful winery we stopped in for an island spritz (a must!) not knowing how cute this place is. Such a nice and welcoming ambiance right away. Spoiler alert: there's an adorable private patio tucked in the back! We returned the next morning for their soft launch into brunch and it was delicious! This is such a sweet business owned by a married couple who were both such pleasant people. We were very impressed with what they've established within the winery/restaurant. Can't wait to go back on my next visit to the island! read more

This place has such a cute atmosphere. When we first walked in, we assumed it would be sort of a pretentious winery, but in fact it was the complete opposite - classy yet so inviting and cozy! The red wine we tried was delicious. I think my favourite part though was the wonderful service from Anya. We're used to Seattle's cold mannarims but this young lady was so sweet! When it got busy, she was ON IT and so courteous and friendly to every person there. We had a great time and will definitely have to come back. read more

Four of us stopped in for something light during a rain storm. The winds were quite nice stable well balanced, pleasant. The whipped goat cheese was the high of the meal, along with the stuffed dates. The sandwiches were so so. But overall a lovely setting, and I would recommend it. Rather pricey, spent $100 for 2. read more

The brie and fresh baked bread are so delicious. Expensive but worth it. The servers were polite and reasonably knowledgeable. Wonderful eclectic atmosphere. I shared a tasting flight of whites + rose + the pear cider. To me the cider tasted like pickle brine and was undrinkable, but the 2023 Madrone viognier was lovely, and I got a bottle. Lovely! read more

Chicken & Waffles are da bomb! I've never experienced Whipped Chèvre with smoked salmon on a Belgian waffle. It was amazing. The Island Spritz was delightful and paired perfectly with my brunch. What a great addition to Friday Harbor read more

The place is cozy! I do wish there was a view outside but inside is nice too. The owner who served us was friendly and personable. The breads and olives that we ordered were tasty. The wines were all local and it helped they offer a discount on bottles if you order a flight. read more

Madrone is a very unassuming cute little spot that we almost passed right by! Thank goodness we didn't! We were greeted by two very lovely ladies and decided to do tastings instead of glasses of wine. She offered to bring them out to the lovely deck and of course we agreed on such a gorgeous day! We sampled 5 wines, each one unique in flavor and body. All were delicious! The deck is stunning having just been rebuilt after a devastating fire 6 weeks prior. Service was great, wines were great and the area was great! We'll definitely be back! read more

Came here for a tasting in the afternoon. The back patio was great. Tons of space and a nice little oasis. We ordered two flights and sat outside and waited for them to be brought to us. The women working were great. Friendly and welcoming. The wine was great. Good portions and refreshing. read more

We missed our opportunity in 2020 to do a private tasting with the owners. Due to the pandemic and other issues we weren't able to do this. We came back to the island two years later and this place is a business now. Thankful they weren't affected by the fire as much. We were greeted by the nice woman with dark hair behind the bar and the local man at the end of the bar. I get a nice look around and enjoy the structure and how nice and quaint the place looks. They have the main room which has a small bar area, little room next for sitting, and an additional room with some seating. Then you have the back deck which has plenty of room. It's quite amazing outside. I love the bathroom. It has a unique map of all the wineries, breweries, distillery and ciders on the islands. I looked at the menu and they have cider, wine and sparkling wine flights. I asked if we can mix and match and she was so nice and said yes. We had the Riesling which on the nose had a delightful and smooth smell to this dry wine. It was fruit forward and stainless, then we had the Cabernet Sauvignon which had a nice aged barrel smell to it, it wasn't Smokey but it had a medium body formation to it and tastes amazing. One of the best Cabs that I've tried in a while. Moved on to the local blend of dry apple cider that was aged in French oak for 6 months. It was impressive, it had enough hint of the oak on the nose for a colorful splash towards the end. Lastly we had the kiwi which wasn't one of my favorites. It was dry and you can really taste the kiwi. Just wasn't digging the flavor. Overall from customer service, to sampling and having a glass of the Cabernet Sauvignon I was impressed. I look forward to visiting in the future when we return to the island. read more

This was an awesome place to stop. The wine was very good, but the staff working last Saturday, made the experience even better. She really enjoys being there and it shows. We really enjoyed our time at Madrone. read more

So nice I came back twice! This place is an absolute gem. I stopped two days in a row to enjoy some delicious small bites and ciders! I sat on the back patio, which was beautiful and shaded. It was so refreshing after a day of mopeds and bike riding. I got the cider flight the first day, which was perfect to help me decide what to get a glass of when I stopped by the second day! And they have happy hour which is a bonus!! Highly recommend stopping here if you're in Friday Harbor! Thanks for taking care of me Barb. read more

Want to try so amazing cider and wine in Friday Harbor? Look no further - Madrone Cellars has all you need. Reds, whites, rosè, ciders both classic and local mixes. This place has you covered. The flights are so well served, you will definitely find something for your pallet. Sean and his wife are so knowledgeable about all their products so any questions you have they will have the answer for you. On your way out make sure to get a bottle Of what you liked the most, I recommend the Malbec and cider-wise ask for the local favorite, it's a classic dry cider that goes with anything. Specially summer. While their tasting in room is new, their wine has been around since 2017. Don't forget to ask about their sparkling wine - it usually sells out as it's amazing but if they have it - try it, you won't regret it. Cheers! read more

The wine and especially the ciders were a terrific afternoon treat. Cyrus is so friendly and knowledgeable about all of the wine and ciders. Just a great guy! When we return to Friday Harbor, Madrone Cellars is our first stop! read more

Thoroughly enjoyed my experience here! On a rainy afternoon, how lovely it was to settle down in the lounge here with a good book and a delicious flight of cider. The atmosphere was just so cozy and I loved the jazzy musical selection playing in the background. The hostess (I wish I'd asked for her name) was so kind and welcoming too. I had decided to skip one of the ciders on the sampling menu because it contains hops (which I don't really like). She was so kind as to offer a second pour of one of the other 3 preceding samples instead. Highly recommend this place, especially the Marionberry cider! read more

Great service and we loved the patio. They really helped us pick out the ciders we would like best and kept checking on us and offering water which was appreciated. read more

A few weeks ago I stumbled across Madrone Cellars (before the most recent stay at home order) and convinced my mom we should stop in for a quick wine tasting to support the new tasting room. I knew they had good cider as I had purchased that before from farmers markets over the last few years, but I didn't know much about their wine, and to be honest I didn't have high hopes (I'm kind of a 'wine snob'). I was COMPLETELY blown away. My mom and I did a full tasting and enjoyed each one! I have already been back to buy more bottles and it will continue to be a part of my personal wine rotation. Their tasting space is super cute and I can't wait until we are able to safely drink inside there again! read more

Best wine on the island. The flight tasting was a great value. Highly recommend if you're in Friday Harbor.

This wine/cider tasting spot is freshly opened! I've been waiting for this, as I've tried the wine and cider at the local farmer's market, and loved it so much that we served it at our wedding. The owners know their stuff, and turned passion into profession. The tasting flights are killer, and the little seating/standing areas are inviting. Excited to have joined the wine club! This is a must-visit if you're in the area. It's a bit conspicuous, so you've got to be on the lookout, but once you figure out its there you'll not want to look further for a relaxing and fun hangout. read more
