OMG. How come I didn't know about place ? This place is amazing!!! I can't believe we have this kind of winery in MD. I went there for my friend's birthday and was so surprised how nice it is. Servers were amazing and made us feel so special. Their food is prepared so freshly and wines were delicious. A definitely perfect place to celebrate special occasions. You always have to make a reservation and I recommend booking one of the cabin. It's so cozy. Can't wait to go back !!! read more

Love this venue! Went here during February. We reserved one of the 7-12 greenhouses and our event went so well. The greenhouse has good natural lighting. The pizzas were tasty too. Good heating, even a fan for the summer. Be careful of the heating element because we burned one of our balloons that touched. Muddy on the parking lot in February after a few weeks of snow and rain so dress appropriately and wear the right shoes. Highly recommended! read more

Loved this place. It has a beautiful setting, friendly people, and tasty wine. At one point they came around with a sample bottle just to give people something else to try. This is the type of place you can go with a small ground and just sit and talk and have small plates. I can't wait to go back int he summer. I did join the wine club, so that is another thing I am anxiously awaiting. What they do, they do well. It is a little off the beaten path, but worth the drive. read more

We really enjoyed girls day! We tasted wine, ate pizza and talked in a beautiful environment. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful. We sat in the patio, which is open but we were nice and cozy under the heater and they provided blankets. I would definitely recommend checking them out read more

This place is truly phenomenal. The greenhouse cabana is a must! The greenhouse is $65 for 2-4 guest. It's well worth it. Beautiful intimate experience. And prefect for a date night. The food menu is limited but it's delicious. The hot honey pepperoni pizza was amazing. And the Caesar salad was tasty. I really enjoyed the charcuterie board. Our server was very attentive. She gave us a sample of wine. read more

An adorable winery with fantastic selections for every palette, good food, and friendly service. We celebrated a birthday at Old Westminster in the small house rentals. Inside, they've thought of everything: blankets, heaters, fans, and a little speaker you can connect to. Jen was our waitress and she made it fun, gave out great recommendations for the women new to wine, and just made it a fun experience. The food was good and the wine selection was awesome. I don't love that the dry red tasting is only available to members but understand it makes a good business model. The petit Verdot was excellent! This is a great spot for a girls night or a romantic date night! I highly recommend and will definitely be back. read more

I came here with some friends for brunch, and we rented one of the private cabanas. They have heaters as well, so the cabanas can be rented year round. The food here is farm to table and the ingredients are sourced locally, and the everything tasted fresh. Our server was friendly and she greeted us with welcome drinks, which I thought was a nice touch. They don't have many cocktails, but the one that I ordered was tasty. My friends enjoyed their wine flights as well. Overall, this was an amazing experience and I highly recommend checking this winery out. read more

Come with me to Old Westminister Winery in the DMV REVIEW: DRIVE 7/10 SCENARY: 10/10 WINE: 8/10 FOOD: 6.5/10 (limited options) The service was good; they catered to our large group.

Such a fun place to get wine and good food. We were able to reserve a spot at the private cabanas and it is so lovely. We went when it was pouring rain, but the cabana was still warm and did a good job of keeping the rain out of our cabana. The food here is farm table so the food is super fresh and flavorful. You can even see them making your pizza through a glass window. We got the flights and were able to try the different wines they had to offer. We dot the cheese and meat board, several pizzas, carrots, and the hummus. The pizzas were really good and had a ton of toppings on them. I can't wait to go back! read more

This is by far the best Maryland winery that I have been too. I think these wines can compete with other well known areas, and the professional awards show it. The servers have always been knowledgeable when I have been, and they are able to provide recommendations and suggestions based on your own taste and preferences. They give you a complimentary pour (they call it a splash) of a wine not on the menu that you can buy by the bottle at the beginning of your reservation. The wood fired pizzas are great, and their food menu changes seasonally. I'd definitely recommend this location to wine experts and newbies alike! read more

Old Westminster Winery is definitely worth the drive out! The farm it's on it's beautiful and the actual dining areas are so beautifully decorated. You can sit in the glass patio or in mini green houses during the colder months, so you can enjoy the sunlight while still keeping warm, which is a must in the cold! As soon as we arrived, aside from noticing the beautiful property and space I noticed how friendly and welcoming all the staff were. From the busy hosts being so welcoming to the servers being SO knowledgeable. I came out knowing so much about the winery and wine in general! For food everything we got was AMAZING! The pizzas were so well cooked and the pear prosciutto and Gouda pairing was so unexpected but perfect. The hummus gets points for being pink and for it generally being one of the most flavorful hummuses I have had in a while! Of course the main event is the wines, with the membership you receive four flights free each month, we were able to try all three available which was perfect because they were all delicious! My favorite flight combo was the classics. If you live around the area and would go monthly I definitely think the wine membership is a great opportunity to get free green house or patio bookings, free wine flights, and 10% off all other wine purchases! read more

My friends and I have been talking about this place for awhile, especially since there's been all this rave online and due to the awards that they've received. Reservations are highly recommended, especially for the private cabanas. The cabanas, the winery, the decor, is something out of a magazine. 10/10 on their design and making this a place where I could sit for hours with a glass of wine and great company. I didn't take a picture of the margherita pizza, but it was a 12" Neapolitan style. Chef's kiss all around. I could have eaten about 3 more of these. By no means am I some kind of wine aficionado, but I very much enjoyed the red wines and the sparking rose. They were on the dryer side which is exactly what I was looking for. I did try a few of the whites, but not my thing. I don't like white wine from a lot of places so no knock to them. Would I come back? Absolutely. I want to try more of their food and maybe do a pairing of food and wine next time with some friends. read more

SPECTACULAR! If you can bear the drive, definitely worth the trip. Took my lady and a few of her friends here for her birthday and everyone has an amazing time. Was able to book about 3 months in advance for a greenhouse for 6. The greenhouse was very spacious and decorated well. The only negative I can think of is cloudy weather is needed. If the sun is out in full force, I imagine the greenhouse will get too hot. The glimpses of sun we had, made us open fans and all doors. We ordered the following and EVERYTHING was a 9 or 10 out of 10: Espresso martini: 9/10 Winter Caesar salad: 10/10 - incredible Cheese and prosciutto board: 9/10 extra money might be needed Truffle and mushroom pizza: 12/10 one of the none pork options and the mushrooms were perfect (ordered 2) Pepperoni and hot honey pizza: 9/10 wish it was a little less spicy Margherita pizza: 9/10 nice cheese and thin crust Carrots and feta: 10/10 wish feta was a little thicker Old fashioned: 10/10 perfect Wines- so instead of doing a flight of whites for each person, decided to get the full bottle of each and saved a lot of money. 2023 Riesling: 10/10 not like all of the other rieslings have had before 2023 Albariño: 10/10 first time trying and we loved it 2024 honey: 10/10 sweet but so good read more

Old Westminster Winery - Pepperoni and hot honey pizza - Wineries Near Me - Westminster, Maryland

This place is one of my favorite places in Maryland-- the food, the wine, the outdoor spaces-- everything. You will need a reservation to go but it's definitely worth it. The wine is so tasty and delicious and you can either get bottles or a flight based on your preference. The menu periodically changes but includes coffee, appetizers, and wood-fired pizza-- all of which are very delicious. They have made their outdoor spaces equipped for all seasons and that makes this a great destination to celebrate something special year-round. Check them out if you have not already! read more

I've visited Old Westminster Winery twice now and it's such a great setting to unwind on the weekend. My partner rented us one of the outdoor greenhouses both times, which are so beautifully decorated. The service was fantastic - the staff members were so friendly, attentive, and eager to answer any questions we had about the wines or menu items. The cheese and charcuterie plate is delicious and definitely worth the price. I love that the winery has gluten free options for the charcuterie plate as well as for any of the pizzas on the menu. The wines were also tasty and overall, we had a great time! read more

Always delicious food and amazing wine. So comfortable and friendly! It's wine without the pretense.

My book club and I had an amazing experience at Old Westminster Winery! When we arrived, we were greeted and seated right away. The grounds were beautiful, with tons of hydrangeas and other flowers. We reserved one of the little greenhouses and were allowed to decorate, so we brought a few bouquets and other small items for the tables. I'm not a huge wine drinker, but decided to go with the summer wine flight and loved all 3! The honey wine was so refreshing on the extremely hot day. I also had the Caesar salad and pepperoni hot honey pizza, and both were 10/10! Service was also amazing! The indoor tasting area was cool, clean, and the staff in there was also kind and welcoming. Really good experience! read more

I've been to Westminster Winery many times at different times of year and it's always a blast. The wine is great, service is great, and we love the pizza. I came on a Friday night in February, renting a greenhouse with my girlfriends. We had server Casey and she was awesome. We each got flights and split some pizzas. The greenhouse is so cozy and has little heaters in it. The flights are about $30 so not cheap but tasty and change all the time. I love the pizza - is crispy and has great toppings. We stayed in the greenhouse for about 3 hours and had a blast. In the summer, it's a lovely outdoor space too. Plentiful free parking on site. I wish there were more restrooms (only 2 stalls!) and more food options besides pizza - it makes it hard to come more often. I also wish they had some more sides. Overall, it's a beautiful winery with great wine and could be great for all kinds of events!! read more

Old Westminster Winery is a vibe. I've been fortunate to see it grow to what it has become today and I think I know the secret sauce. The wine is great - the food is delicious but what really makes OWMW stand out is the service. Everybody is so delightful and helpful. We have had no hiccups dining there. When we had to change a reservation last minute, the team worked with us to make it happen. Its the reason we come back monthly (and the Pet Nat Albarino when its available) Did I also mention that you get four free flights as members??? read more

Another great trip to the winery. We tried a bunch of great food off their menu and had a great time! We stayed in the lounge greenhouse which offered a nice amount of space so for 5 people we weren't crowded at all. The table is maybe a little small with all the glasses and decor but you make it work. We tried the bacon and mushroom and pear and prosciutto pizzas along with the charcuterie board and glazed carrots. Everything was fantastic. read more

Old Westminster is my favorite winery in all of MD. I came to celebrate my birthday with friends in one of the summer cabanas. Reserving the cabana was done online, with a small fee. It can hold up to 6 people. Our waitress was helpful and informative of the various wine and food selections. We decided to order a board, couple of bottles, a handful of pizzas and desserts to share. I love their brick oven pizzas! It's made well, light, fresh ingredients and yummy. I love this winery because of its good food, wine selection, flight options, great service, easy parking situation, well constructed structures to sit in and picturesque! Also pet-friendly if you want to bring your furry friends. read more

If you're traveling from the DC area, be ready for a driveeee to get out to the Old Westminster Winery but just know that it will be worth it once you arrive. The winery is breathtaking when you arrive and a very relaxing experience. It looks like they newly renovated the outside and whoever came up with the design... shout out to you. You did your big one. There are small outdoor spaces (maybe 12) where you can dine outside with up to 10 guests without being in the sun. They had pumpkins and fall decorations scattered throughout. There's even a little event space off to the side that looks like it would be beautiful for a wedding. The wine itself I thought was ok here. The only thing that I would've gotten again was one of their rose's. Everything else was either too sweet or I was just not a fan (their orange wine). I ordered the sausage and onion pizza and thought it was kind of mid and lacked seasoning. There are plenty other wine and food option so maybe there are some other gems that I have yet to try here. I thought the service was pretty good, everyone was friendly. I'm not sure that I would seek out another visit to Old Westminster Winery but would definitely visit again if I were in the area. Thank you! read more

This winery is really cute if you want to find somewhere with vibes. They have cabanas that seat small and large groups as well as regular seating. They have a pretty good variety of food (mostly pizza which I forgot to take a pic of) and their selection of wine is pretty diverse as well. My only complaint about this place is the holding deposit fee for the cabanas. I have never been to a place that doesn't apply the deposit towards the final bill. So while the cabanas are nice, warning that this is really just a HOLDING fee. You don't get it back and it doesn't go towards the bill. read more

Everything about this place from the food, the service, the staff, the outdoor eating areas, the wine is extremely phenomenal. I wish I lived here and I could just wake up every day to have their wine and their food. I visited for their 10 year anniversary four course meal, which was some of the best food I've ever tasted. I can't wait to go back here, especially when the weather's warmer. read more

Great Atmosphere, Friendly Staff -- Wine Was Lovely, Food Was Just Okay. I visited Old Westminster Winery with a group of 12 and reserved one of their outdoor cabanas -- beautiful setting and perfect for a group! The staff greeted us with friendly smiles, and our server was kind and knowledgeable. I loved the dry Rosé and got to sample their 2022 Origins red (member-only), which reminded me of Pinot Noir -- very nice! The bathroom even had cloth hand towels -- a nice eco-friendly touch. Food-wise, the wood-fired pizzas are a popular choice. I ordered the Pepperoni and Hot Honey, and my friend had the Margherita. While the crust had a good char, several pizzas in our group came out overcooked. More disappointing, though, was the soggy, doughy bottom on our pizzas -- not the crisp base we were hoping for. Whether it was too much sauce or underbaking, it was a miss. The cheesecake tart was amazing, and my friend loved the Chocolate Chip Skillet -- dessert was the highlight! Beautiful winery with great service, but due to the wine selection and disappointing pizza, I wouldn't return. That said, it's still worth visiting once for the experience, especially if you enjoy farm-to-table settings with a scenic vibe. read more

This place so peaceful and relaxing. Nestled in the hills and valleys of Carroll Co. I booked a cabana for an early Sunday afternoon. When we checked in at the hostess stand, we were immediately escorted to our cabana by a very friendly staff. The cabana can seat up to 6 guest. There are fans in the cabana to help keep guest cool. I think the cabanas may be somewhat sound proof because we could not hear any conversation coming from the surrounding occupied units. They have a very extensive wine selection, of course....its a winery. The food and drink menu is in a cute little vintage leather cover. We opted to try the fruit and cheese board with added prosciutto, prosciutto and pineapple pizza, and the strawberry basil donut. Everything thing was delicious. As for the wine we did the summer seasonal flight to start. We ended up ordering a bottle of the Honey which was the third selection in the seasonal flight. I'm looking forward to booking another cabana in the early fall. The cool breeze and the fall foliage will make for a beautiful afternoon. read more

Wow, This was my first time experiencing a Maryland winery and I must tell you.. it is a MUST DO!!! We made a reservation about a month in advance, because this winery is highly rated and tends to book up pretty quickly. We were seated in the outdoor pavilion area during the late evening and it was perfect. Everything from the service / staff to the food and wine was amazing! I throughly enjoyed every bit of the experience. It is quite a drive from the metro area, but well worth it. There's tons of on site parking. Their food menu isn't extensive, but there are a variety of pizzas and apps to choose from. I truly believe that you can't go wrong with anything that you choose from the menu. I highly recommend!!! read more

I surprised my mom with a visit to Old Westminster Winery as her Christmas gift. We love going to wineries as a family and Old Westminster had been on my list for a long time. Its marketing specifically on social media is so clean, chic, and sophisticated. Once they started prepping for the colder seasons and set up their greenhouses, I knew I needed to book one. We ordered many glasses of wine, including a few flights, and lots of shared plates. You cannot go wrong with any of the food. I personally preferred the red wine but I don't really drink white to begin with. My siblings and dad who did drink white thought it was delicious, even buying a few bottles as we left. The service was fantastic. Three hours in the greenhouse was also the perfect amount of time. The whole winery is gorgeous and secluded. The story about the family is also very beautiful and inspiring. We look forward to visiting again soon! read more

This is a lovely winery located in Western Maryland. The first I visited was about 4 years ago, so I was a bit surprised to learn the winery has become reservation only. We paid $16 for a 3 hour reserved table/seating in the interior of the property, well air conditioned, quiet, calm, and a good space to gather for co-work or catching up with friends. The exterior of the property had tiny greenhouses outfitted for 6 people for $65 reservation. We ordered the Cabernet bottle and split that to have 3 glasses each. The red wine was okay, maybe it was not for me, too dry, not robust enough in flavor, I'll have to try a different one next time. The hummus dish was DELICIOUS and the truffle pizza was AMAZING. I highly recommend anyone to visit, just be prepared in advance for making a reservation. read more

We love a local Marlyand wine with actually good wines! My friend has been a member here for a few years now, and this was my second time to visit. We ended up going on the HOTTEST day of summer so far and while it was 100 degrees outside, we had a lovely time sweating and drinking wine. Someone did pass out and an ambulance had to get called so we got ice soaked towels. You do need to make a reservation to visit, so make sure you book this before you make the drive! Old Westminster gives all the shiplap and cursive vibes of the 2015s era but it works. I find it charming and adorable. My friend has driven us both times as it's quite a trek from the city, a little under an hour. The drive is stunning to the area though, very verdant and it's really fun in the winter as they have those plastic igloo houses with blankets. The wines here a little on the pricier side to I guess make up for the cost. The bottles are around $40+ unless you get the piquette, which is made from the scraps of winemaking, which is actually lovely for $28. The food here is so good - the pizzas are stunning. We love the mushroom and the prosciutto and pineapple. The Mediterranean was a miss for me, it was too much sauce and the bottom was too soggy for me to enjoy it. The salads are also solid, we loved the caesar, super crunchy pieces of romaine with a delicious crouton dressing. They do have such fun coffee drinks here and I have yet to get one! I do love their whites and their pet nats are always solid. We loved the pet nat chardonnay this year, and if you're a member you get free flights of wines, so we benefitted from my friend's membership. Old Westminster does make a wine with Cookhouse now, and I cannot wait to try it! A must visit for those getting out of the city! read more

I did notice that there is plenty of staff, so it's pretty easy to get something when you need it. The wine was very good. My favorite is Trio. And the food is absolutely delicious!
