On a mission to try the various wineries around the area…read more Hubs brought me here for Mother's Day. He made a reservation in advance and we originally thought it was for a tasting and set menu but when we arrived we were sat at a dining table and given menus. The place was packed so you can tell it was a popular place. Staff was welcoming and attentive. The owner even came over to greet us. You can order wine by the glass or you can pay for a tasting of all that they offer. I opted for this because I really didn't know which I liked yet and wanted to sample them all. My fav was the blackberry blueberry wine. Actually ended up taking 4 bottles home!

What a wonderful place!-a hidden gem! They offer both wines and have a very nice beer selection. We…read morehad the pizza which was very good.

Had a blast on great calming land and the wine tasted like Florida Sunburnt deliciousness. The Rose was my favorite but the hospitality and openess was the best part! Will certainly be back to check on the longhorns and current cheese selections!

This is a great winery. In addition to having great wines, the owner is extremely friendly and…read morepersonable. There was a pizza food truck the night that we were there. The perfect brick oven thin crust pizza. Back to the wines, they're all great. They also sell wine accessories in the store. Also, they have a spice packet that can be added to their wines that takes the flavor to another level. Would definitely recommend to check this out and I will definitely be returning.

I was in the area last weekend on a gorgeous day and decided to visit solo…read more There is plenty of seating on the back patio with a large chess game and fire pit circles. The tasting area is very small so I chose to do a flight instead of my original plan of tasting. I did 4 pours for just under $10 which was a good deal. I took my flight and sat out back enjoying the beautiful day while a guy playing violin (the entertainment for the afternoon) played. I ended up buying a bottle of Honeymoon to bring home at $18.99. I also tried Duet, Blueberry Pie and a Raspberry. The Raspberry was my runner up. I thought it was neat that they had a whole back store with single selection of beers and ciders for the non wine drinkers at a reasonable price. I'll go back when my besties come to visit and try again as I feel this place has potential for another star .

Lucked out winning a round of bingo too.

First time visiting Keel Farms and overall, we had a good experience!…read more I really liked the atmosphere. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, and we chose to sit outside where the live music was playing. It was comfortable and well ventilated, and as the evening went on, it actually cooled down nicely. They have live music on the weekends, but I thought the volume was just right -- we could still easily carry on a conversation without having to talk over the music. I ordered the NA Rose, which I thought was delicious! It was a little on the sweeter side for me, but I still really enjoyed it. For an appetizer, I got the Southern Board and it was SO good! There were several delicious options, and I especially enjoyed all the pickled items. It was very plentiful and definitely shareable, but honestly, there was enough that it could easily be a meal on its own. For my main, I ordered the Keel Salad. I really enjoyed it, and the pork belly was such a good addition and made it a little different from your typical grilled chicken Cobb salad. The vegetables were fresh, and I would definitely order this again. The only downside for us was the wait for our food. We waited well over an hour for our entrees. Our waiter was good about keeping us updated and explained that the kitchen/tickets were backed up. He continued to reassure us that our food was coming, which I appreciated. We did get our appetizer first, but there was still a pretty long wait before our mains came out. That being said, I really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, outdoor seating, and live music. Hopefully the long wait was just an unusually busy night because I would definitely come back and give Keel Farms another try!

We ended up doing wine tasting with Marshall and also a tour with Ryan and both of those experiences were great. They definitely get very busy so if you plan to eat there make a reservation.

Date Night at Dragon Flower Winery…read more A beautiful evening filled with good wine, delicious food, and even better company! We enjoyed sipping wine, sharing a colorful charcuterie spread, and soaking in the peaceful winery atmosphere surrounded by beautiful greenery and horses. From the cozy outdoor seating and twinkling lights to the laughs, great conversation, and unforgettable moments together, Dragon Flower Winery was the perfect place for a romantic date night. Wine & frozen drinks Charcuterie & pretzels Beautiful countryside views Horses & peaceful scenery Quality time with my favorite person Sometimes the best dates are simply good food, good wine, and the person you love.

They had a customer recently have his book signing event there as well. Prices are reasonable. They have specials daily and dress is casual to dressy. Priced reasonably.

And there are plenty of tables to sit. I think there were some ladies playing the Chinese domino game, it starts with an "m". Got to meet the owner Ray and he picked out a fantastic Cab for me, it was the Story Storypoint Cab out of California. Later I also had the Martin Ray and in my opinion it was not as good, but it was a heavier mouth feel and it had layers to it. They have a piano player Wednesday and Saturday. He shows up around 6pm. So they have free slasa and chips in the back corner most nights. On Tuesday the have tacos. And Tuesday there are meatballs. On Friday they have Karaoke around 7. If you like wine, or you are an enthusiast, this would be a great place to visit if you find yourself in Winter Haven Florida. They have buy one glass 2nd half price. If you buy a bottle and stay, it is a $15 corkage fee. We kind of did the math and depending on the pour, and their pours are generous, it is cheaper to buy by the glass. When you visit they your own math gymnastics. Bottom line, Grape Expectations, the wine is great. The service is exceptionally better. And if you like a mellow vibe with great wine. You won't be disappointed in this stop. Finally, shout out to Terra, between her and Ray we had such a great time. CAN'T WAIT TO COME BACK!
