These smoked wings are absolutely the best I've ever had in my life. The ambiance was great too. Can't wait to go back!

Amazing food, great wine and excellent service. We visited many wineries during our visit and this one checked all the boxes. Can't wait to go back.

I really loved this winery. We decided to get food at this winery compared to the other ones in the area. The food definitely was worth it. I ended up getting the Fresh Seasonal Vegetable Quesadilla which was very good. The vegetables tasted fresh. I highly recommend their slaw (it has chipotle in it). The slaw was probably the best thing about the dish. The wine flight also came out pretty quick and all the wines were delicious.

We visited Ryan Williams for lunch. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu as well as the history of the building. Take note of the posts, beams, and pegs. There were 4 in our party. We each ordered something different. The portions were large and satisfying. The pimento cheese dip was delicious. I think we all agreed that the Bbq pork sandwich was amazing!

Chicken sandwich and pulled pork

We had lunch here around noon on a Friday last week. If you want a spot on the beautiful patio, you definitely need a reservation. We had heard good things about the farm fresh food, and we were not disappointed. The chicken sandwich was our favorite, and the pulled pork meat was super tender, but it was missing a good sauce. The pimento dip was also tasty! Despite the food being yummy, the wine here was the worst we had on our winery hopping tour. We didn't even finish some of the tasting glasses because of the off flavors. If you plan on making a stop here, go for the food but skip the wine!

Carefully curated and thoughtful food. The flavor combinations for the clam chowder were spot on. Highly recommend brunch here. The salad and dressing that accompanied the quiche was the best thing I've eaten all week. The atmosphere is delightful, modern and comfortable. Service is great. Beautiful views. Wine and mimosas are delicious! Highly recommend the quiche.

The tasting "barn" is gorgeous! Beautiful exposed beams and an open space. The wine was okay. Nothing to write home about. It felt a bit too pretentious in relation to other wineries in the area. Our server did a great job but could have been more personable.

The ambiance and the decor and building fabulous. The wines and price were not so great. My husband and I enjoy wine and have been to most places in the Finger Lakes and in Santa Barbara California. Unfortunately, this wine was not among what our palette enjoys. To each their own. Give it a try.

Lovely patio, friendly staff. Wines aren't my style, but a good place to stop for lunch with a beautiful view of the lake.

Quiche of the day and a spring vegetable & herb salad (w smoked salmon)

Make a reservation here, plan a cute outfit, and get ready for a perfect date. My husband and I had such a great experience here for brunch and a tasting that we ended up staying longer and ordering more tapas and wine. ATMOSPHERE: Whether it's a first date or 40th anniversary brunch, it's the perfect intimate space for a brunch or lunch date. It's one of the nicer places in the Finger Lakes. So come here if you're celebrating something special! Inside is clean and spacious but you want to sit outside on the large patio on a warm day. Nice views and wonderful patio. The music choices were perfect. Not many people notice song choices or playlists at restaurants much, but I was Shazamming a ton of them! WINE&FOOD: This is where you come for whites and rosé. Schedule the tasting with your brunch reservation and enjoy! You won't regret any choice. Especially the Pinot Noir Rosé or the Gewürztraminer. We actually hid the tasting notes and tried to guess on a few of them, making the experience a lot of fun. But let's not forget their cocktails! Who doesn't want a cute flower on their drink? Food is *chef's kiss* so fresh and delicious. Lots of menu options for any mood you're in - but the spring veggie & herb salad with salmon and an egg makes the perfect start to your day. SERVICE: Our server was probably the nicest and most helpful person we could have asked for. She helped us decide on which tasting to do, and seated us in a romantic spot on the patio. Definitely top spot in the Finger Lakes, don't miss it.

Menu

Nice vibe, good food, small portions. Fish and chips is low key fire. Wine is good so give it a shot. Service was good too.

As you come in, you find a neo-retro style barn, maintaining the essence and structure whilst adding a touch of color and modern materials. It is easy to locate with the signs by the road & the blue indigo barn is unmissable. The friendly staff who knew about their offerings, helped us decide what to go for, both in terms of food as well as in wines. It also doesn't hurt to have stunning views while you wine & dine. Ryan, the owner, was extremely hospitable & his passion for his wines is contagious. Additionally, his wife designs the entire menu. Even though it's not a restaurant per se, the food is incredibly flavorful, without being too salty. The indoor sitting offered a well-ventilated environment in our warm day. However, we adventured ourselves outdoors & the umbrellas provided a nice shade. I totally recommend this vineyard - it even won the Rosé of 2019 for the NY State! It is still a small secret spot!

It was absolutely pouring when we pulled into Lakewood. The kind of rain that makes you…read moresecond-guess getting out of the car. Our umbrella flipped inside out within seconds - useless. We were soaked and slightly grumpy walking into the tasting room. But once we got inside, that all melted away. The space was warm and welcoming, and the staff got us settled right into a tasting. My girlfriend and I weren't expecting much, but the wines (especially the sweet flight) completely won us over. We sampled 10 wines in total. The Bubbly Catawba 2023 and Abby Rose were standouts - bright, playful, and so easy to enjoy. The Niagara 2023 had a similar profile, leaning a bit more grape-forward, but still refreshing. Even with the weather working against us, Lakewood made the afternoon feel special. No pretension, no pressure - just genuinely good wine and a great vibe. This spot is absolutely worth the detour, rain or shine!!

We did not have a reservation, but easily found ourselves a spot at the bar. It was a pretty rainy and crummy day, but even though a few other couples had the same idea as us to hit a winery to avoid the rain, we did not feel crowded in the space at all. The winery is certainly one of the most well decorated spots we visited. They really lean into the barnstormer and plane vibes, with appropriate decor in every facet of the interior. It was very tastefully done and gave the winery a certain fun and unique vibe. We were seated at the bar for our tasting. The bar was quite large, holding a number of different couples but giving us all adequate space to spread out, have a few glasses in front of us, and not cloud the others' conversations. You could chose from a few different preselected tastings, and I opted for a mixed red and white tasting while my husband opted for the all red tasting. My husband enjoyed all of his, particularly liking the merlot. I enjoyed the whites in my tasting more than the red (I had a weird after taste from one of them which tainted the red experience for me), favoring the chardonnay of all things (I am not a chard gal). We appreciated how our server engaged with us, telling us a bit about each wine but also navigating hte entire bar without lingering too long in one place. She answered our many questions about the wine, being knowledgable but also approachable. We had a great time and enjoyed our wines. Barnstormer was a great rec from our various servers etc while in the Finger Lakes - while the wines themselves may not be at my top, the vibe and service did stand out. That being said, we did take a bottle home with us, so I'm looking forward to enjoying that on a special occasion!
