The Blind Squirrel Winery is the perfect casual spot. There is inside & outside charm. The wine is very special as well as the charming owners. There is music on certain nights to enjoy. On a cool night you can sit outside with a bonfire. If you have a special event you can reserve tables or a room for a small fee & bring your own food. But the food offered there is really good. read more

Music and outdoor entertainment was great. Blind Squirrels were a great group. I am a red wine drinker and there was at least one I'd consider good read more

They have Bike Bites on Thursdays and the food is great and a good price. They also have appetizers. A nice variety of wines, glass or bottle. Also, there is always good music with a variety of talent. Service is great and they always make sure you are served well. read more

Charming establishment. Wry friendly owners and staff. Cute little gift shop. They have really out some thought into this place. And the best part is that their wine is over top. read more

My husband and I stopped here on way to dinner. What a great spot, oh how I wanted to stay longer. I had a glass of a wonderful cab and we went and sat by the fire. unfortunately, they only had wine, so my husband just enjoyed the place as he is a beer drinker. They look like they had a wonderful outdoor space in a very wooded area. I can't wait to go back, hopefully with my two favorite wine people. My mom and oldest daughter and stay a bit. read more

The wine is fair at best. If you ate looking for exceptional wine, go elsewhere The place itself is so cute. There is a pond and a patio. There are games and the indoor space is nice too read more

The Blind Squirrel Winery - a view of a picnic area - Wineries Near Me - Chagrin Falls, Ohio

Nice, small family winery. The building has a counter to order wine and small bites. If it's raining or cool there are tables there. Tonight we sat outside under patio umbrellas. Sitting in the back yard was like being at an old fashioned family picnic. There are large trees and a pond. Under a shelter was a guitar player. A man with a one-man food service called Bicycle Food Cart set up making hot items and kebabs. Food was good. Adequate parking and restrooms. A relaxing place. read more

Really cute winery. I've been here twice once was for a wedding shower and another just for wine. The inside is a woody cozy feel. Outside there is a deck and seating. I had a merlot brownie and it was 10/10. Service both times was great. I'd like to come back and spend more time here and some time outside enjoying a nice glass of wine. Worth checking out forsure! read more

Nice cozy winery, plenty of tables inside and a lot of space outdoors. The wine is very good and so are their appetizers. The owner and his daughter who waited on us were both very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be going back. read more

So let me preface this with the fact that I am not wine connoisseur. This review is from a simple person that enjoys the outdoors and nice people. Hubby and I went for a hike and had some time to kill before parent related shtuff. Blind Squirrel was a perfect fit! We got our wine, sat in the Adirondack chairs, watched our fellow wine folk and just generally enjoyed the laidback atmosphere. The people I assume were the owners were very friendly and working hard to make sure everyone's needs were accommodated. read more

They don't serve food so we packed sandwiches and chips and nuts for our visit. Was like a indoor picnic. The wine was good for Ohio made wine. The interior was warm and cozy. While the outside is a little rustic, I was pleasantly surprised how nice and welcoming the inside was. They have live music certain nights but not the night we visited. Check it out! read more

This is absolutely my kind of place. This is a small little winery nestled in the trees in Chagrin Falls - it's tucked away, down a little gravel driveway with a private dirt/gravel parking lot. I LOVE IT here!!! The winery itself looks like they took a house and refurbished it into a great little winery. There's a covered patio and two large rooms with a fireplace. There is exposed natural wood throughout and it's decorated wonderfully with carved wood pieces and of course, a taxidermied blind squirrel. The tables are mismatched and have a fun thrifted/antique feel and there are some comfy chairs around the fireplace. Perfect woody atmosphere getaway. They also have a little lake on the property, as well as an outdoor patio. Kids are also allowed, too. There are no waiters/waitresses here, which is prefect for facilitating an environment in which you can stay as long as you like without feeling guilty for taking up a table. We stayed for 2-3 hours just talking and wining. When you want wine/drinks, you just go up to the bar and order. The people at the bar are very knowledgeable about their wines and are extremely kind in answering any questions you have. We wanted to order sangria, but didn't know the best wine to pick, and they had their sangria expert come out from the back to answer our questions and pick out some delicious flavor combos! All their wines are made on-site in Chagrin Falls and their menu is constantly changing. Their prices are also very reasonable. After we were just sitting and relaxing, someone came around to clear our glasses and ask how everything was. When we went, in the fall, they had an AMAZING boozy apple cider that was warm and delightful. It hit the spot in the chilly fall air. They don't have much in the way of food, which is okay. When we were there, they had an appetizer table that you could grab a plate stuff of for $7 I think. But, since they don't have food, they let you bring in outside food. I would highly recommend stopping by and checking it out for a bottle of wine! They are open Thursday-Saturday 4-9pm, but check their website to see if it changes. The owners facilitate a wonderful, welcoming atmosphere, nestled in the trees and nature of Chagrin Falls. I will absolutely be coming back! read more

Fantastic location. Fantastic wines. Fantastic family business. Nothing more to add other than we will be back many times. read more

Best winery in Chagrin Falls! Hands down. From the moment we walked in the door, everyone was so informative and so kind. Prices are very reasonable, wine is phenomenal. Very relaxed environment and you can bring your own food if you want. We would definitely recommend. Visiting from Florida but we will be back each time we visit! read more

Great local winery, owners were very personable and friendly. Their personal story of what they wanted to do in retirement was inspirational. Wine selection was good with 2 flight options. Bands and food truck on the most weekend nights! Prices very fair. First time here but will be coming back again for sure! read more

Very nice chill atmosphere. Sophisticated, but not stuffy, with very good wine. The food, a Greek taco, a mega grilled cheese, and a pepperoni roll were all delicious, especially the Greek taco! Nice to have live music. All served by a friendly and pleasant staff. We look forward to returning. read more

So I'm in the fence between 3-4 stars. I decided on 4 for the following... The ambience is so much fun also a great chill spot to bring friends. They let you bring food In Which helped with entertaining some guests and my parents (we went for my moms birthday) plenary of room for larger parties. Great cabin I. The woods feel with a beautiful fireplace! I wish their bar/counter was organized better a little confusing when a ton of people are waiting to purchase or tab out, but somehow they managed to keep track. I really loved the venue and the service! The wine! This is where I was a little on the fence. We tried everything they had and it was 50/50. I loved half the reds and bought a few bottles but the lighter reds didn't appeal to me at all. (Mind you they were sweeter and I'm a Malbec merlot type guy) but there woodland red and namesake red were great! The whites same thing 50/50. I liked the rose and the name sake the best! Overall good, great venue, amazing personalities put this in the 4-star category for me. We will definitely be back! read more

They should have better customer service to their customers I was standing in line and a customer told the food truck lady to F off which was way out of line she was nice and told them it would about 15 mins for fresh food well the guy told her her to F off and wanted a refund after 10 mins she told him the time he agreed then did a total 360 and when the owner came over he says to the food truck you can pack up and leave if you want how rude to invite a business their and your customers treat her badly and then you blame the food truck I will NEVER come back to blind squirrel unless I go blind and got lost lol this place is a total joke I felt so bad for the food truck she did nothing wrong and the guy was so out of line and so was the owner do better with customer service and the way you treat others bad business read more

Went here for first time 10/11/19, great property and winery enjoyed all the wines tasted. Suggest using chalk to marks the flights, and maybe easier access from the parking lot to the patio, we will be back and recommend to all our friends read more

The ambiance of this darling winery is second to none. We sat outside (6 feet apart) and enjoyed the most delicious wine and listened to awesome music by Sommertime. Fired UP Pizza Truck was there to tantalize your taste buds with their amazing pizza. Great night out! read more

The service here is second to none. The management have taken measures to ensure that customers feel the same warmth and excitement that's always felt at the Blind Squirrel. The management shows such gratitude and appreciation to each customer. The Blind Squirrel will always be our winery of choice read more

Amazing owners the nicest of people! Make their own wines and they are delicious. Property and layout is beyond relaxing, coming back every time I'm in their neck of the woods read more

Such a great intimate spot. Stopped last night as we live up the street and were looking for a new date night place. Nicely lit entry. Limited wine selection but it was good. All made right there. Owner was most hospitable and welcoming. $7 appetizer table. They allow outside food so good to remember for warmer outside picnic. Last night grabbed chairs fireside and had a great time. They often have music, check their website. Definitely a fun local spot read more

The wind is amazing! I just started getting into red wine, and the Sassy Squirrel and Flying Squirrel are all I've ever dreamed of! Tastes like juice and can easily drink an entire bottle in a night it's that good! read more

Please head to this charming winery as soon as possible. The atmosphere is wonderful and we tried both the dry white and red wine and enjoyed them immensely. The staff was very friendly and attentive. read more

We discovered this new, little gem on our way to the local Target. My husband and I went, and loved it! I then organized a small group of my neighbor ladies to go there to support a friend who recently lost a her sister. They loved it, too. We brought our picnic, and enjoyed sitting out by the fire afterward. At the wine bar you can sample their labels, which all of us really liked! Bill, the owner and his family could not have been more gracious to us on both occasions. We're going again to tonight to check out the entertainment, have some yummy wine and appetizers, and sit out by the fire. Give this place a try. read more

Love this place! Great wine and the staff is lovely. Reservations are a good idea as this is a small winery. Everyone behind the counter was very knowledgable regarding the wine list and how their wine is made. They had a small buffet of cheese, crackers, cookies and pizza but bringing your own food is encouraged. read more
