My friend and I grabbed dinner at Cove, and then went over to Budd Bay cafe for dessert. We stumbled upon this place on our way and decided to stop by after dessert. There is such a quaint homey feel about this place that's so so enjoyable. Stop by on a nice sunny day and hang out on the patio! (: read more

Perfect ambiance, highly knowledgeable owners, amazing prices! I must say Seth and Sara are making this little wine store into a Oly gem! Sit in the cutest vintage building right on the pier, there is a lovely patio for a sunny day, ample pours on their wine tasting ($10!!? Wow!) and the owners are knowledgeable on everything from the wine regions to the cultivars and soil! I love to geek out on wine hort, but these folks are in it for the beauty and chemistry of the flavor--none of the pretentiousness!

Sara and Seth are two of the most delightful people you could ever meet. The care they give to help you pick the wine is exceptional. The wine tastings are educational as well as great fun. They have guest wine experts (from all over the world) at the tastings that enhance the wine experience. One of my favorite places in Olympia. read more

Great selection, excellent customer service. Waking distance to down town and farmers market.

Terrific people and a fantastic selection of wines! It's a great place for wine drinkers!

Stopped in this wine shop during a day trip to Olympia thanks to other yelp endorsements. The owners and the other patrons there for the weekend tasting were friendly and helpful. Everything on the tasting list was enjoyable and also a great value. Wish I had this little shop closer to home. Definitely worth a stop or becoming a regular read more

The Wine Loft - Tasting menu - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Olympia, Washington

I've been selling wine for over 30 years, and am ever on the hunt for wine shops with the kind of variety that this one has. My wine pro husband and I have been in the shop several times, always buy some thing, they've got great prices, international selections, and the folks working there are awesome. We were just in again over the weekend and Matthew was working and he was wonderful and we actually know some of the same wine retailers up in Tacoma. Highly recommend this place. read more

What a cute wonderful spot! They have a great bottle selection with both new and old world options. Whether you're looking for bottle for a special occasion or a reasonably priced bottle for a weekday, they have you covered. They also do tastings every Saturday and a wine club! They offer limited wines by the glass too! Super nice owners who will talk you through your purchase. Every time I go there I feel like I belong, seriously one of the hidden gems of Olympia. read more

Sarah and Seth make wine tasting a delightful experience. Not only that, Sarah went above and beyond for us in making a leaving party a success. I've always been a dedicated red wine drinker, but they have introduced me to some truly delicious whites. Sancerre and white bordeaux - new favorites. read more

We came on a Sunday and got two flights during happy hour. The ambiance is lovely and our waitress was super friendly

Seth and Sarah are Amazing! I was looking for wine tasting in Olympia for my wifes 40th bady party and they were more than accommodating. The Ladies had an Great time. The outside setting is perfect for 10 people. Private party and wine prices are fair and we will return for another! Thanks guys read more

Looks like a wine store. Smells like a wine store (that musty smell of wine, cork and cheese, yum). Aisles are narrow, full of wines. IS wine store! I'm a big fan of NW wines, especially our great Washington state ones. The Wine Loft has a very good and diverse selection as well as others from around the world. Prices are fair. The staff helpful to "experts" and noobies alike with out being pretentious (one of my favorite wine tasting words) Now if they only sold Cote de Rotie for $10 a bottle........... read more

Wonderful place to visit for their Saturday wine tastings. Sarah and Seth are about the most enthusiastic and joyful people I know. And they have some wines and varietals you won't find elsewhere, as well as some standards. They've certainly added to my lifelist. read more

Excellent selection of wines from around the world and Washington. Plenty of knowledgable assistance. The Wine Loft always happy to look for and order unusual wines for me. Prices are fair and the stock includes modestly priced wine as well as an excellent selection of wines between $11 and $19. The Wine Loft has tastings on most Saturdays so those who do not want to buy without tasting can have a good time and find the wine they want at the price that appeals. read more

Been going there for years but when I brought a bottle back that was really off they weren't interested. Too bad, and not the customer service one would expect from a small indie seller. I'm done read more

I love coming here and selecting a different bottle each time. Not unlike perusing through books at an old book store, the wine loft enlivens a giddiness in me that I am so rarely afforded in this world of 'on-the-go'. Though my selections are at times a miss, the enjoyment of trial and error are by far well worth it. Imagine getting lost in a book store, dusting off an old book, taking it home and preparing for an adventure. Even if it leads you astray, the adventure is always worth it, and if it locks you in, as you turn one page to another remember the wine loft and all the adventures offered to your imagination.... In a bottle. read more

Yes, tasting Saturdays are very crowded. That's the fun of it. Extremely knowledgeable owners and staff. A super friendly crowd. Best $12 cheap date in Oly! read more

Super worth it to try the tasting. I came by on a Saturday afternoon and was looking for a spot to chill at with a drink in hand. I saw some people drinking wine on the outdoor patio and was sold immediately. It was only $8 for 6 wines, $9 if you use credit. It wasn't that crowded when I stopped by and I loved the small outdoor area. read more

Very helpful and friendly staff. We found an excellent inexpensive Pinot Noir as well as an amazing hard cranberry cider thats made in Oregon. Will definitely go back next visit to Olympia! read more

This is a great little wine shop. Jim and Mary used to own a restaurant in town, and then decided to go into the wine biz. They know a lot about wines, and are very good about recommending a good wine to accompany your meal. If you like a special type of wine, they will let you know when they can get you a discounted price. They are very good about recommending wines that are a good value. They are very friendly and helpful. In contrast, I went into the Olympic Wine Merchant several times, and was never greeted and got the feeling that they didn't care if they got my business. Now I go to The Wine Loft. read more

Walked in yesterday for the first time. Asked the manager for assistance finding a nice WA white wine (I'm usually a reds girl but wanted to branch out). We discussed my likes/dislikes and what I wanted to pair it with. He suggested a nice Riesling which I was skeptical of as all the ones I've ever tried have been like syrup. Decided to give it a go and, truthfully, I wasn't disappointed. It paired nicely with my roasted chicken. I could also see it working really well with a nice salad of stone fruit and goat cheese. I'll def be back in again soon. read more

So many wines to choose from. It was organized chaos in there. Personally, I think they have too many. It makes the place look like it's trying to get rid of overstocked items and less inviting. We still managed to purchase a tasty italian wine. read more

I show up in the parking lot of the seafood store and the wine loft way too often. But it is money and time well spent. Wonderful seafood and wine, my favorite shopping spot in Olympia. Justin is great at suggesting wines that are within your price range and they are always terrific. The Saturday tastings are very crowded but lots of fun. They totally know the wine business, we have tried so many different wines because of them. Much better than going to the large box wine store. read more

The owner-operators Mary and Jim are friendly, always helpful, and there is no snobbery at this fine wine shop. Other reviews have covered all of the specifics, so I won't repeat it all, I just want to be counted among the fans of The Wine Loft! read more
