    Rose Vineyards & Winery is a craft winery that opened in North Branford, Connecticut in October 2019. It was founded by husband and wife Jon and Ellen Rose with the help and assistance of their extended family. The Rose family is one of the oldest families in North Branford. Beginning in 1646, Robert and Marjorie Rose began working their land as a traditional New England farm with orchards and livestock. Today the farm is one of the oldest in the country that is continuously run by the same family. The farm now features a farm market building, a creamery that makes old-fashioned custard, Buck's Grill (offering breakfast and lunch), a bakery, and a maple syrup operation. For several years, members of the Rose family had an idea about opening a winery on the property. 12th generation family member Jon decided to make this idea a realty. Beginning in 2017, several members of the Rose family assisted in planting the vineyard while a winery building was built on the property by Al Rose Construction. Jon and Ellen run the new venture as co-owners and co-vintners. At Rose Vineyards, the staff focus on viticulture, enology and wine education using the best environments and sustainable practices while ensuring the highest quality. My family and I recently visited Rose Vineyards for the first time. This came just a couple of days after we visited Rose Orchards Farm to pick strawberries. We had heard several good things about the winery since it opened. The vineyards were beautiful and the new winery building was very impressive. In addition to the delicious wine, the building also has an on-site kitchen that prepares farm-to-table dishes. We saw several delicious charcuterie and mezze platters coming out of the kitchen during our visit. However, we were there for another culinary treat: PIZZA! In the warmer months, every Thursday night is "Pizza Night". We picked a table right outside on the patio next to the wood-burning oven. To drink, I ordered a glass of "Pinotage" while my wife ordered "Symphony". Both were excellent wines! For pizza, we all ordered and shared the "Pepperoni" (pepperoni, San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, EVOO), "Truffle Burrata" (burrata, spinach, parmigiana reggiano, truffle pesto, EVOO), "Lobster" (lobster, ricotta, fresh mozzarella, tarragon, roasted tomatoes, garlic, pernod reduction, sarvecchio cheese), and the "Nutella" (nutella, strawberries, powdered sugar, toasted hazelnuts) for dessert. Every single pie was excellent!! Before leaving, I had a glass of their "Cabernet Sauvignon" which was very flavorful! Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, delicious wine and mouth-watering wood-fired pizza! We'll definitely be returning to Rose Vineyards!

    It's not a summer night without getting some yummy ice cream/dessert from Rose's! I've been craving their blueberry pie alamode since last summer! The pie is so warm and yummy, and the ice cream is the creamiest soft serve I have ever had! The staff that run the shop are friendly and helpful with suggestions. You can sit indoors at the Cafe to eat or outside and bonus, go walk around and say hi to all the farm animals!

    Blue berry pie

    It was ok... we weren't blown away... unlike last year, our Airbnb was next to a orchard near Mohegan Sun... with amazing fresh baked goods... delicious blue berry pies, apple turnovers, apple pumpkin crumbs... ugh... was really hoping for the same quality. Rose orchards offers baked goods but... truly, a bit lack luster in the quality of the pies. I had the blue berry pie.. and not sure why the pie crust was overly salted. The apple crumbs pie... ugh, just call it a crumbled pie... holds no shape. Apple fritters we're ok. Again, wasn't blown away. Wouldn't go out of my way to get these pies.

    Really enjoyed our lunch here today! I got a meatball sub and my husband got the grilled chicken ranch and bacon sandwich. The meatballs in the sub was moist and well-seasoned. And the Chicken Bacon ranch sandwich is a new fave. Oh and the zucchini fries is so good! We finished our meal with split frozen yogurt we got from the Creamery right next to the grill.

    We had such a nice time at Rose Vineyards. We went for the first time and we will definitely be going again. When the weather permits, there's plenty of seating outside. If it's a rainy day, there's some seating inside but not as much as outside. The service was great, the atmosphere was fun, and the food was delicious! Definitely a good place to stop!

    Vanilla pumpkin yogurt

    This is a small farm. I was there only for the ice cream. I liked the hot fudge with custard the most. Fudge was rich and heated up to the right temperature. Vanilla chocolate was creamy. Vanilla pumpkin yogurt was ok. They have a small grocery store attached. I didn't get veggies from there though.

    So Much fun ... love the patio with the pizza oven!! Went to the new winery last night with my girlfriends. Such a great space. We ordered wine a the bar and sat in the great room.

    Wine tasting: symphony, rosé, marquette

    So many incredible things to eat whether you're at the orchard or vineyard and restaurant. The orchard and market have so many fresh foods to choose from. Of course I love the locally grown produce, but the cannoli pie is my favorite. The new vineyard and restaurant is incredible. The wine is excellent- great varietals to choose from (try the symphony and the marquette!) and the menu is overwhelmingly delicious. I've never been disappointed by the options and the flavors.

    Bucks Grill breakfast & lunch

    Great local market, fresh fruit & veggies (not all local), baked goods, fresh ice cream. Not much organic options unfortunately. Breakfast & grill restaurant were open early. The bagel was lacking cream cheese, the wrap & sandwich were decent enough. Great prices. Nice service Very clean

    My husband, baby and I came here for a evening treat about a month ago. Super fresh soft serve with a great variety of toppings to choose from. If we weren't on our diets, I would have opted for an ala mode, with my soft serve over some sort of pie. So good though.

    Swirl frozen custard!

    Wish they had more flavors, but the chocolate custard was very good! We had it in a brownie sundae. The goats also make it a fun experience!

    The City Seed Farmers Market near Wooster Square in New Haven is one of my favorite CT Farmer's…read moreMarkets. They have have great farms that have the best in season produce. They have other cool vendors like Ideal Fish, Jitter Bus Coffee, Olmo Bagel, Seacoast Mushrooms, Mystic Cheese, G Cafe and more. You can cover a lot of culinary ground with just one visit. The Wooster Square market is open on Saturday mornings. It's easy to access from 91 South. Check for other locations of the market too. Five Stars

    CitySeed's Wooster Sq farmers market runs on Saturdays from 9am-1pm in the summer and is located in…read morethe Conte West Hills middle school parking lot. Parking is easy to find. It's an amazing place to stock up on weekly produce, grab brunch/pastries/coffee with friends, and dog-watch! On some days, there's even live music/performers. Vendors vary week by week but there's usually a good variety of seasonal produce, baked goods, prepared foods, coffee, local honey, dairy, eggs, and meats. Personal favorites: The fruit from woodland farm is amazing - they had samples of their plums and after trying one, I had to buy a pint! Other stands I find myself going back to are Seacoast Mushrooms (great variety and mushrooms are so flavorful!), Sono baking (delicious pastries and English muffins), and the jitter bus (excellent coffee to sip on as you're browsing the market).
