Rudest staff in Maple Valley. I get coffee here once of twice a year because it's next door to…read morewhere I get my hair cut and the lines at the other places around are too long. It's amazing that for over 7 years, no matter who's minding their store, they never say even "hello" when I walk in or "thank you" when I place an order. Most times, their silence is only broken by "I'm ready" (to take your order). That's it. Most times, they don't even say anything when they put my coffee on the service counter. It's no coincidence I'm almost always the only one in the shop. The staff that work in the businesses next to them (hair cut place and nail salon) laugh about how Vintage Vine staff are so consistently rude and unwelcoming. Their coffee (mocha, latte) is average, not good.

lf I ask one thing of you in 2012, it's to visit this shop if you are near the area. You will be…read morerewarded handsomely with delicious, affordable wine and beer. We buy wine from Kristi annually on our trip to this area and were delighted that she took over the space where a terrible excuse for a restaurant used to be housed. She has transformed an old space into one of the best hangouts in town with a bar that serves wine and beer and couches and tables to relax among the bottles of wine. The walls are the original brick and are adorned with tasteful local art. Pick a bottle off the shelves and enjoy it there for a $5 corkage fee. She has an excellent taplist but an even more impressive beer cooler. I was more than a little astonished to find my favorite beer from Portland (a seasonal) on the shelves. She also has some rare finds from California. With Kristi it's nothing but honest opinions on wine. If you ask her what she thinks of a bottle, she'll tell you the truth rather than trying to make the sell if she thinks you won't like it. Just yesterday when we asked her opinion on a bottle, she said, it's good, but this is better and steered us toward another, cheaper option. And this woman has a memory like a steel trap! It had actually been two years since our last visit and she remembered us. Even more impressive, she usually remembers what wines her patrons enjoyed on their last visit, so if you enjoyed a few too many and forgot that amazing wine she poured you, she will likely remember. Everything we have gotten from her has been interesting and delicious. Stumbling across a Kristi selection in our collection is always a treat because we know we're in for something fantastic. Stop in and prepare to be wowed!
