The easiest 5 star review I've ever left. The friendliest people you'll ever meet walking into an establishment. The way they take time to think about every single ingredient going into a cocktail or their food offerings. An extremely nice place to take a date, or your family where you can feel relaxed and accepted, yet not lacking in a beautiful atmosphere. I've met some of my closest friends here! My favorite signature cocktail is the mango jalapeño which they thankfully sell in 4 packs and they taste just as good as if they were made fresh. I'm not scared to try drinks made with liquor that I normally wouldn't drink as they are so scientific about the ingredients going into the cocktail that it flows so nicely! They've turned me back onto whiskey just with how delicious it is. Also they kill it with the gin and vodka flavors. 10/10 will always tell my friends and family to visit when they're in town, and if you're a townie and you haven't been here- wtf are ya doin? read more

I recently visited Patio29 Spirits Co., and it turned out to be an excellent example of a thoughtfully executed small-batch craft distillery experience. Located in the historic downtown area of Winters, the tasting room blends naturally into the town's relaxed atmosphere while still presenting a polished and professional environment. The space itself is inviting and well-designed, creating a comfortable setting where visitors can slow down, learn about the distillation process, and enjoy the spirits being produced on-site. The moment I walked in, the team welcomed guests warmly and immediately created an environment that felt both educational and social rather than transactional. One of the strengths of Patio29 is the way the staff approach the tasting experience. Rather than simply serving samples, they take time to explain the philosophy behind their distillation methods, ingredient selection, and the development of their spirits. That level of engagement elevates the experience because you begin to appreciate the craftsmanship and intentionality behind each bottle. The conversation naturally flows from the history of the distillery to the production techniques they use, which helps visitors understand how small-batch distillation differs from large commercial operations. The spirits themselves demonstrate strong balance and technical precision. Their vodka stands out for its clean structure and smooth finish, making it enjoyable both neat and as a cocktail base. The gin offers a well-structured botanical profile with bright aromatics and a controlled level of juniper that allows other botanical elements to come forward without overpowering the palate. The cocktail program also deserves recognition because the bartenders clearly understand how to highlight the character of each spirit. Instead of masking the base spirit, the cocktails are constructed to complement and elevate the flavor profile, which is a strong indicator of thoughtful beverage craftsmanship. Another aspect that enhances the experience is the atmosphere. Patio29 manages to create a relaxed social setting that encourages conversation and exploration. It feels like a place where locals gather as much as visitors discovering the town for the first time. The tasting room maintains a balance between professionalism and approachability, making it easy for both experienced spirit enthusiasts and casual visitors to feel comfortable. Overall, Patio29 Spirits Co. delivers a refined yet welcoming craft distillery experience that reflects both technical skill and community-oriented hospitality. The combination of well-executed spirits, knowledgeable staff, and a comfortable environment makes it a destination worth visiting if you are exploring the craft beverage scene in Northern California. read more

My husband & I came here last Sun 2/22 around 4pm for a cocktail. Anita took our order. I got a Bee's Knees $10, which was a bit small but very tasty. My husband got a delicious unique Mai Tai $10. I tasted his drink, and fell in love. It was like no other Mai Tai we've had before. Anita & Eric took great care of us as usual. read more

This is such a fun little spot in winters! They have great drinks! It's cute inside and they have a small patio area covered with umbrellas. The two people working there were very sweet and friendly. This was a really fun and delicious afternoon! I got a blueberry., lemon, mint drink which was absolutely delicious. The other people I came with really enjoyed their drinks and got another round as well! Service is very fast- they bring the drinks out really quickly! read more

Yummy cocktails, very welcoming to our dog bringing her a water dish. Games to play and food to snack on. We did the tasting of spirits and tasting fee was waived with purchase of bottles. read more

Fantastic food, cocktails and service! My husband and I have been here several times and their food is simply fantastic! The flatbreads are probably the most flavorful I've ever had, and their cocktails are delicious; very creative and "robust" if you know what I mean ;). And then there is the service; everyone is so warm and welcoming! I love this little spot and I am already looking forward to the next time! read more

Great drink options and staff super friendly and offered great recommendations based on what we enjoyed!

Stopped by here after a rainy day of walking the dogs. I called to see if they had a covered patio so we could do a tasting. He said that they do but probably not too pleasant because of the wind. He said well behaved dogs welcome inside. What a gem! Very welcoming boutique style tasting room. We got a flight of whiskey and also vodka and rum. You can mix and match up to seven I believe. The host was very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. We also tried the fried raviolis, delish and the seasoned fries. Those were just okay. Needed morel seasoning. Would definitely recommend . Cheers! read more

Incredible flavored bourbons for a fun tasting. Highlights: - Fantastic flavored bourbons: pure, not fake tasting or overpowering. I loved them all but think I liked the lemon honey the best. - Tasting options: fun option to be able to pick 3 plus get a small cocktail. If you're with someone you can get all 6 flavors to taste and share. - Cocktails: amazingly delicious! - Other alcohols: they have plain vodka and gin as well in case someone doesn't want bourbon - Snacks: little Costco things like bags of popcorn to much on while you taste. - Super friendly staff - Store inside right by cute little gifts - Outdoor seating on picnic tables in front Lowlights: - Limit to how much you can have: totally understand but it's so good I could've had another cocktail. - Bit out of the way so not quite walkable from downtown Loved this stop and will be back when I need a refill of the bourbons I purchased. read more

The quality of the spirits offered is on its way, but not quite to a professional standard yet, IMO. The vodka was incredibly sweet, the gin tasted overwhelmingly flowery and soapy, and the whiskeys lacked any significant mouthfeel or depth. They are in their beginning stages and if the family working this craft continue to refine and develop, I have no doubt they will improve and become better, they just weren't there yet. However, while the spirits alone might still yet be lacking refinement, the cocktails they crafted were quite delicious! I wish this place would get a bar license so you could stay and have more than two cocktails. Those were very tasty, especially the cucumber gimlet! If I could give a separate rating for the service and hospitality alone, I would easily give 5-stars. The place is clean, well-decorated, and thoughtfully laid out to meet both liquor laws while still welcoming families. The patio is very nice and well shaded. Indoors is a beautiful layout of tables and swag. I love how you can see the distillery equipment and process through the giant glass window behind the counter. And the staff/family working the place were so kind and welcoming... it was a very relaxing and peaceful afternoon. read more

Went to Patio29 as a last minute meet up with friends on a hot summer day and it was perfect! Staff was super friendly and helpful! They have a great selection of Spirits and yummy seasonal drinks! They also have small bites to enjoy with your drinks. We ordered the flatbread and it was phenomenal! As a local I wish I would've known of this place sooner and I will definitely be returning with more friends! read more

Pride in their craft is what sets this place apart. Patio29 is family owned and operated; they've spent many years honing their skills and have created a variety of absolutely delicious (and award winning!) spirits. Flights of six 1/4 oz. pours are currently $10 and you can choose from over a dozen different spirits. If you buy a bottle (believe me, you'll want to!), the flight fee is waived. Not only do they produce amazing gin, rum, vodka, and whiskeys, but they have a wonderful selection of handcrafted cocktails made from their own spirits - simple, classic, seasonal, and daily specials, also for around $10 each. The vibe is excellent and family friendly, with an outdoor patio and plenty of indoor seating as well. They're serving food now, too, but as we were only there for drinks I didn't get to try it out. I'm giving this place five stars for outstanding spirits (the barrel rested gin and the straight rye were my favorites), great vibe, and the warmth, hospitality, and knowledge of the proprietors. read more

I don't believe I would have ever tried Bourbon/Whiskey if it were not for Patio29. The mixed drinks made with your choice of spirits are amazing!! Definitely a good location to pre-drink before dinner or have a relaxing time. Always polite service. The inside of this distillery is impressive! There is an outdoor patio, but on very warm days, it's best to be inside. Have in mind this location is 3-4 blocks from downtown. Cheers. read more

Love this place! A must visit in Winters! I had their hot toddy today and yum!! Wonderful family history also...I miss those cinnamon toothpicks! read more

Patio29 is unique in so many ways as well as a change of pace with all of the breweries and wineries in the area. As a family-owned business, you're likely to meet at least one member of the Boone family when you visit. They're delightful and along with knowing how to make quality spirits, really understand quality service and making patrons feel comfortable. A big plus for many of us - they are dog friendly! As for those spirits, everything Patio29 creates is small-batch and locally resourced. It's worth trying everything, but chances are you already know whether you enjoy whiskey, gin, vodka or rum before you walk through the door. So you won't go wrong by skipping the tasting flight and going directly to the amazing cocktails (be aware, you are limited in how much you can be served). The Capital Blend and Cinnamon Whiskey were both great, as was the Maple Leaf cocktail. read more

1st time here. We ordered a Bloody Mary. Best I have ever had. Next time we plan to buy vodka to bring home. Def will be back

Drinks, food, and service was amazing! 5 stars ALWAYS for this incredible hidden gem.

If I could give 10 stars I would. Outstanding service, family owned, amazingly well crafted cocktails, and fantastic pricing. We brought our own charcuterie board and a deck of cards and just hung out. I hope this place is around for years to come. read more

Great spot and amazing decor. Having the distillery concept so close to home is finally great. I've been there several times and see that things are progressing very well. However, during my recent visit, when Masks were required I found that some local patrons didn't feel it was real. The mask was being worn on the bill of his hat. It's all about choices and I am not going to knock anyone who feels exempt. Covid sucks! Better more, IT WILL SUCK THE LIFE OUT OF YOU! read more

Good whisky's and knowledgeable staff. Nice place to visit and enjoy. Took some bottles home to enjoy. Will come back with friends

We stopped in to use a gift certificate and we were immediately greeted by Anita, one of the owners. We were fortunate enough to have the place to ourselves on a Friday at 5:00 since this hidden gem is still largely undiscovered. She was awesome! She talked us thru their history, the story behind how patio 29 came to be and told us about each of the spirits we tasted. My wife and I are both whiskey drinkers so we opted for the 3 tastings of the whiskeys they currently have on menu: the capitol blended whiskey, the orange Harmon's Hot Pix and the cinnamon Harmon's Hot Pix. (For more on why it's called Harmon's Hot Pix you'll have to visit the distillery) They were all delicious. The capital blend was perfect straight up. We took a bottle to go so we can try it in our favorite cocktails. The orange and the cinnamon were big surprises. They both smelled great and had a very balanced flavor. When you hear cinnamon whiskey what do you think of? Fireball, dive bar, hangover from hell? Yea me too but not Patio 29's. None of that at all. It's a smooth subtle cinnamon flavor that's very drinkable but still tastes like whiskey. Personally I think it would be a great nightcap. The orange tastes like it would be great in an old fashioned, on the rocks or mixed with a little water or soda water. Overall I highly recommend paying them a visit. They have a great space for hanging out and tasting and the walls have historical photos and informational stuff about different spirits and how they're made. Bonus view from the bar is thru large windows into their warehouse space where you can see the stainless tanks and stills that do all the magic(plus the rest of the family hard at work). I can't wait to go back and especially to try out their bourbon and rye whiskey that should be out later this year. This is a local family business that everyone can feel good about supporting. read more

We drove up to Winters one Sunday to get out for a bit. I had previously told my boyfriend about this place and that they started making made hand sanitizer. So he wanted to stop and check it out. I thought they had walk in and order to go. But it is call in orders with curbside pick up. The staff was so nice they walked out to our car and took an order from us. The man that came to our car gave me a run down of what they had and recommend a few spirits to us. I took his recommendation of the black cherry whiskey. It is so delicious! I cannot wait to get something else from them. read more

My first spirits distillery experience was top shelf (Haha)! Seriously good spirits in ETOH and vibe! Every one I tasted I really liked even the rum. Vodka, Gin (I rarely drink), Bourbon, and Rye Whiskey all smooth & complex for being young. The family/owners make the experience even better with their story, history, and clear love for one another. Adam was so knowledgeable & into his craft. Anita was such a kind and on top of it coordinator. Spot is beautifully decorated & clean operation that has great potential for growth and longevity. The cocktail menu was great & changes seasonally. More reason to go back!!! Eric is a great mixologist! The only thing missing was food on site which is going to change soon. They have been creative, resourceful and hardworking during Covid shutdown and didn't let that stop them from pursuing their dreams. It's worth the visit,,,Looking forward to going back & hoping they host some great events. Highly recommend! read more

Read about this place opening up in Sac Business Journal and as a whisky fan decided to check it out. The space is well-lit, clean, and is big enough to host several gatherings. Because this was my first visit I opted for the flight. Starting off with the vodka I was amazed at how smooth and tasteful it was, detecting the locally sourced grains and seeing how it all blended together while balancing out the boozy-alcohol taste you get with some vodkas. And I wasn't even here for the vodka. Same goes with the gin -- not a fan, but was impressed that the gin didn't go overboard on the juniper. Eric, the server, told me that a lot of dry gin does this and it was great trying out a type of liquor that I wouldn't normally go for. The whiskys were the reason I was here and their blend is just as smooth and balanced as the other offerings. Since they're new they're having to blend with other proprietary blends, but they mix in a few tricks of their own to come up with a good whisky. Give them time and I'm sure they'll be putting out a bunch of cool stuff. The orange and cinnamon whiskys were not my favorites, but that wasn't because they didn't taste good. They're distilled to be cocktails-in-a-can, so you'll get a lot of mixer-like juiciness already in the bottle. They're good to go over ice without adding anything. I imagine I'll have to be in the mood to have one of these, but if you want something that does it all straight from the bottle with no mixer, then try these out. If I HAD to pick a favorite it would be the orange. Their orange whisky is their sleeper hit. The rum was also smooth, balanced, and had the right amount of fiery spice. I'm not much of a rum drinker and my experience with them is very limited, but this was a rum to drink by itself. Walked out with two bottles: whisky and vodka. Took a sip from each this afternoon and they're just as good now as they were then. They have a short cocktail list (which they can do mocktails for if you want to go that route), but I didn't try any this time. Overall, good place and I will return. Their atmosphere is very inviting, their staff is great, and the spirits they serve are excellent. I hope this place does some great things in the future. The only thing I don't have much patience for is the commute from Sacramento. Getting to Winters is a pain with all the switching between roads and freeways. Fortunately, this trip was paired with a visit to Berryessa Brewing down the street. They're right off the 505, but the Sacramento crowd is going to have to go through some twists and turns to get here. But if you want to support a great local business that is coming up with decent spirits then give this place a try. read more

Family owned ..... great setting liked their choices in flights and their cocktail was by far one of my favorites. They were all friendly and really enjoyed their whiskey. The orange pop was my fav but I definitely have to come back and try the rum and get me one of the blend. Nice small setting and not too noisy. Love it. read more

Nice family business and happy to see a new fun business in town. Enjoyed the tastings and the cocktails. I wish this business well.

Great Family owned small batch distillery putting out quality whiskey. (The gin is probably good too but didn't have a chance to taste). One thing that you have to try while your there is the Orange Whiskey. It's like an Old Fashioned in a bottle with all of the flavor and none of the sugar. I'm not usually a fan of flavored whiskeys and didn't intend to purchase this but after tasting I had to grab a bottle along with a bottle of their regular blended whiskey. This place is definitely worth checking out and I always love supporting local busine read more
