This place has a super cute mountainy look to it and an expansive outdoor patio with nice views of the surrounding mountains. Location is a 5/5. Pricing is high for what you get here. Service is average. I came in the fall and wish they had a seasonal fall menu of drinks but didn't see anything. Overall an ok place to grab a coffee but not my top choice in town for price and seasonal menu offerings. read more

The service was friendly and the deck has a nice view of downtown, but that's about all of the positives. The cortado I ordered was middle-of-the-road (rating--3) and more like a latte and the semi-stale chocolate chunk cookie (1) tasted like it came from a bad grocery store bakery. The inside (1) was dingy, cluttered and smelled bad and parts looked like they hadn't been cleaned in months. Looks like owner/management is absentee or just doesn't care. My advice is grab-and-go some coffee if you really need a cup or sit on the deck if it's nice. read more

The Village Grind - Outside is rustic and kind of charming, but the inside is not. Definitely a grab-and-go joint. - Wine Bars Near Me - Wrightwood, California

I don't usually leave reviews, but here it is. I noticed all the anti-American political signage as I entered your business. No problem with expressing your views, but I just find it interesting that you have gone with a marketing plan which promotes divisive rhetoric. Seems risky to alienate so many good people so I must assume things are going really well. Best of luck to you. Other than the extremely offensive, in my face posters, good lunch! read more

Food is pretty good but they never answer their phones. I tried numerous times to call to place a pickup order but they won't answer their phones. I had to go and stand in line to place the order. Because of this decided not to get anything if I didn't want to wait in line for a simple order. Also they often can't handle making a simple egg bagel sandwich and tell customers they can only do the "lighter" menu. They should train their staff better instead of turning away business or hire more help. read more

When you come to a small mountain town you can imerse yourself in the lifestyle if you choose so. We tried this local wine cellar to experience what the town could offer and truly enjoyed it. Greg here gave us a spectacular wine tasting experience and the whole way through we felt as if we were family. At the end we couldn't help but to purchase some of his awesome recommendations and we left feeling content with our wine adventure. The next morning we came back to enjoy a custom made spritzer by Greg and again were left with a great experience. I would recommend this place for any travelerss looking to enjoy the mountain scene and a cozy mountain town vibe! read more

This is a place We usually stop in coming from a ride in on Ach highway. It's a mandatory stop. A quick relax and unwind with beer and sometimes finger foods. However this special occasion they were serving ribs. Ribs, potatoe salad, corn, and Texas toast all for 15 bucks. How can you go wrong? Not to mention it was pretty darn good. They also have a pretty great selection of wine and beer. I always just stick to the lager. If you're in wrightwood, you need to check this place out and give it some business. I also forgot to mention they have live music as well. read more

It felt like a hidden gem with people having a good time drinking, dancing (a few people), and enjoying each other's company. The wine menu was extensive. There's something for everyone.

They also have a monthly membership that has some pretty good perks. The service was great and we even got to meet the owner. Very nice woman who was welcoming.

I came alone to enjoy a quiet evening and try their wines, drawn in by the strong Yelp reviews. Unfortunately, my experience was uneven. I arrived without a reservation on a busy Saturday night and was initially told there were no tables available. Thankfully, another patron kindly offered me their extra small side table allowing me to stay - but I watched several groups get turned away at the door. Moral of the story: make a reservation. This place seems much better suited for larger groups, events, or celebrations than for solo visitors. Service felt stretched thin. The staff were pleasant but clearly affected service - they could definitely use more help on busy evenings. When I asked about a wine flight, I was told they were too busy to prepare one. Five to ten minutes later, I watched another table receive flights without issue, which was disappointing and made me feel overlooked as a single patron. I ended up chatting with a nearby group of six women who were also there for the first time based on reviews. We agreed the space is gorgeous and has potential, but our experiences were just "okay" overall. It's a beautiful spot with great music and atmosphere, but the operational hiccups and reservation policy make it tricky for walk-ins or solo guests. I probably wouldn't return personally, but if you're planning a group outing or special event, book ahead and you might have a much better time

Great wine selection. We went on a Saturday around 5:30 p.m. before the evening rush and ordered a…read morecheese and fruit charcuterie board along with several glasses of wine. We ended up staying until about 9:30 p.m. and never felt rushed or pressured to order more. The staff was very friendly and made excellent recommendations, especially considering we were a bit picky -- one vegetarian, one pescatarian, and the other only likes dessert wines!! Definitely coming back with less picky people

Waiter Manuel. This…read moreis a review reflected on you, solely. Being kind is the moral of the story, from the beginning you were passive agressive with your comments and tone. Being in a party of 4 girls coming from high tea, we were dressed in elegant dresses, first comment was asking if we were coming from church, followed by eye flutters, short "okay" with an upward inflation to a joke about the day, an impatient comment about hurrying up and trying the wine while we were talking, asked for water when we were out, were left to pour the rest of our wine, didn't ask how the food was all the while was attentive to the table behind us, the cherry on top comment was when we were discussing the bill at the end, he was hovering at the table behind ours, then when we were ready, we asked to split the bill into 2, my portion on mine and the rest on another card, he then said "this isn't like a drive through, we can't do it that way" so I asked him to explain his comment, cause it was passive agressive and rude. After he wasnt able to becuase he wasnt expecting me to call out his rude comment, I had to then break it down and specify what I had ordered, he then sold "okayyyy....so how much, cause we don't itemize?" I had to again express for him to specify how they do it cause he has still yet to explain where his attitude is coming from and explain how they do their check splits, from my understanding it just felt like he wanted to play dumb and make me to the math, one I did he was like "ohh, okay" should have asked for the manager but we paid and left, I hasnt had this experience before being a returning customer, but he needs an attitude adjustment as his attitude was completely out of pocket. Do better Manuel, you alone got your place of work a 1 star. The rest of the staff was kind, facility beautiful and food and wine was good. This restaurant is not reflected in the 1 star.

The coolest atmosphere.

I drive down the street quite frequently and see all the people there trying to get in and I wanted to be one of the people there (without lines) so I finally made it there on Valentine's Day during the day because I'm unwilling to wait in line for wine . I'm not a super wine lover but I take a sip every now and again so it was nice to get a few words of advisement before I selected a glass to try. My husband and I each tried a glass which we enjoyed. It was nice to just sit outside and take a sip of wine. Anyway, my husband said he'd definitely go back. I would too if they are hosting an event that I'd like to go to. I notice that they host quite a few events - love the idea of small businesses working together in this way.

Such a beautiful, curated addition to Upland. They have an incredible selection of natural wines…read moreand non-alcoholic spirits.

Tbh, I have not a single negative thing to say. I'm gonna be backwards and start with dessert but…read morethat white chocolate earl grey crème brûlée was the most unique and BEST crème brûlée I've ever had. It was absolutely delicious and I had to make a conscious effort not to lick the bowl. Now to the food, we got the frites (10/10) and the 2 item charcuterie board (10/10), both on the happy hour. Super reasonably priced and both amazingggg. We thought about ordering another charcuterie board. We also got a bottle of the pinot Gris (skin contact) and it was delicious. I love a skin contact wine so I'm biased but everyone should try them. We also did glasses of the chenin blanc and the carmenere. The chenin blanc was probably my favorite I've had of the many I've tried and the carmenere was super unique. The service was fantastic (shoutout to Isabella) who was helpful and nice. Also super attentive even when it was busy! The outside patio is super nice looking and vibey. String lights and candles on the tables with a chef grilling right as you walk out of the door. I'm dedicated to becoming a regular now and can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

We ordered a sparkling wine that was excellent, and our server was genuinely attentive without hovering. Big shoutout to our waitress, who was kind enough to make sure we got our order in before the happy hour cutoff so we could get the pricing. That kind of thoughtfulness goes a long way. Great vibes, great service, great pour. We'll definitely be back.

Pros Ambiance was great, service was wonderful and the food was delicious. It was a nice spread! Also, live music! Cons Price, I guess I didn't expect it and of course, didn't check, I only saw category $$. It was close to $200, full price for wife and I, son $24 (little one was free). I would have given it 4.5 stars, but then dumb cons got in the way.
