The food here is absolutely amazing. Prices are good. The bartender that was helping out me and my party of four was a great guy. He cared and joked about how he wanted one of the buffalo chicken tacos as well. The ambiance is chill and welcoming. They have vines hanging from the ceiling and it just pulls you in. Sorry no pictures, we devoured it before we took the pictures. We had the whipped feta cheese, Lumpia, Buffalo Chicken Tacos and XL Quesadillas. read more

I went Friday night at about 11. It wasn't busy at all. I went right up to the bar to order a drink and for some reason had to wait for 45 minutes. The bartender looked like he was sleep walking he was slow. In the middle of all of this waiting a party of four came in and sat down at a table behind me. The guy stopped everything and quickly moved behind the bar to hug one of his friends. He then went back and poured two beers for them and brought them to the table. Then he poured two more and brought those over. All the while I had been there for about a half an hour waiting. I joked with the guy waiting behind me that I don't even want the drink any more but don't want to feel like a quitter. Finally the owner, who had also seen me there, came and took my order and made the bartender get it for me. I left after that. Other than that night my experiences have been great there. They just need to get rid of that bartender. He's AWFUL! read more

I attended a volunteer dinner at Vines and Pints. The restaurant was closed for the private event. This place is located in downtown Gilroy and I went on a Wednesday night and there was parking available, about a block away, on the street. I can see this street being busy and parking hard to get on a weekend. The restaurant has plenty of tables but no outside seating. There is a large bar with a great selection of wine, spirits and beer. The team serving us was welcoming and attentive. They knew their wines and were happy to make great recommendations. Our party did not get to order from the food menu because it was a preset menu for dinner. There was a buffet with a protein, vegetables, salad and dessert. I took one star off because of how greasy the food was. Other than that hiccup, I would come back here on my own. The service was outstanding - attentive but no pressure. An upscale place in downtown Gilroy. I highly recommend. read more

What a fun place to unwind after a long week. We met up with family and ran into family here. Meant to be!! It was our first visit to Vines and Pints and we were impressed. The vibe felt like we were in a major city. The DJ's choice of music really made the whole experience even better. Shout out to the interior decorator. I loved the choice of canvases that lined the walls. Very grateful to have ran into this business through Yelp. Big thank you to Jorge and Jen for their patience and help with the drink menu. We showed up too late to dine from the kitchen so I will update when we finally do get to eat here. read more

Our waiter was excellent, the food was really good, and the ambience was great. The live music made it even better. Definitely a really nice spot for a casual date night! read more

He was wearing a maroon shirt and he has both arms tattooed did not get his name. He was not helpful at all Instead, he kept going and sitting with his two female friends while customers were there So unprofessional read more

This place really missed the mark. We came on a Friday night with a party of 5. The place was not full at all, there were maybe 3-4 other tables. When we first ordered the server mentioned that the cook was going on break and there would be a wait. We didn't mind. We then ordered around 30 minutes later 4-5 dishes. The wait was excruciating. Every dish came out at different times. We were there 2+ hours and still did not get the sliders we ordered well before. My whole group was very frustrated with the experience. Not even all of us were eating some just drinking. The service was also very terrible - again, that's ok if the place was jumping busy, it was not. We had to ask for the basic necessities and the wait for those things was long. The most frustrating part is all of the food dishes were very tasty. I love supporting local Gilroy businesses but it would be hard to justify returning based on our experience. We still paid full price for the food and were offered a couple of drinks. Very frustrating experience!! read more

Tried this place for the first time last night. I enjoyed the ambiance, it's cute and right down town. Large selection of wine and beer. One thing to note is that their menu online does not match what they offer in person and that soured our visit. Much of what we went into order was not available. The menu was small and mostly heavy bar bites. That said once I was over the initial disappointment what we tried was good. Jenn the owner came and helped us and she was very sweet and personable. I just hope they update their website to reflect their true menu. read more

We came during what I would describe as a busy halloween weekend festive event! The streets were full of people dressed up and so were the bars. Vine and pint was the same, packed but bar top was open so we grabbed a seat and ordered my wife and I some sliders as an afternoon snack! Chatted with the bar tender and learned more about the festivities going on since it was a Friday before halloween so I was curious if Gilroy was always so lively or it was just that weekend. Bartender was great and even offered me a few samples of the local brews just to try. Honestly didn't recall which things but I do recall one was a sour and ipa for the first time. But I think I enjoyed the one that tasted like a sangria. I joked about hearing that Gilroy was garlic capital so asked if there was a garlic beer since I saw somewhere there was garlic ice cream, but unfortunately there wasn't a garlic beer on tap so no luck there. Soon afterwards our sliders came and we got to enjoy our afternoon snack before heading out to locate me a sample of garlic ice cream in the garlic capital! Sliders were good and medium well! If only Gilroy was the final stop on the road trip I think I would've enjoyed a bar hoping experience since it seemed like there were plenty of bars to choose from! read more

I cannot say enough great things about Vines and Pints. Not only are they such a gift to Gilroy but they completely elevate the town. They serve local wines that are only available in their establishment (which keeps us coming back for more!) I have been here more than a handful of times and the service no matter what day I come, no matter how busy, everyone working is so attentive and when given the chance really get to know you! Which honestly makes the experience even more special. The ambience is everything! They cater to everyone including families! The food here really deserves its own review. The food is fresh, upscale, and unduplicated. Not to mention delicious!!! I am never disappointed when coming here and look forward to seeing the growth and being along for the ride. read more

This place is a whole vibe! I didn't even know Gilroy was so cool. I loved everything about this vibe is great. We brought our kids and were able to enjoy an adult vibe with a kid friendly undertone. Highly recommend the quality of food and drink. Jessica was our waitress and she was so easy going and accommodating! And she says it's her first day?! No way... we will be back when in Gilroy. read more

Chill atmosphere, excellent service, fantastic food and a solid assortment of brews...this place is great. Came here with a group based on the reviews and was not disappointed. Highly recommend. read more

Their food came out piping hot. You can tell the dishes were made to order and had fresh ingredients. Reasonably priced. The server (who was also the bartender) was super friendly and customer service geared, offering us tasters of multiple items on their beer menu. I just wish we had a dipping sauce for the excellent mozzarella balls, however the creamy pesto sauce from the risotto balls came in clutch for that! read more

What a fantastic surprise / discovery! I needed a short stop to log in and work - and it was lunchtime... I ended up here on a freeway detour. I just had the BEST sandwich, beer, and great service. LOVE this place and wish we had one at home (San Diego). Both tables and the bar are great (even with charging for work emergencies), it's attractive, friendly, comfortable - sounds like a family enterprise. Vines & Pints, and Brisket Grilled Cheese - my new favorites! read more

Sweet ambiance, friendly service, good food, fantastic local wine list. So happy Gilroy finally has a great wine bar. No pretense, but classy and fun. Date night, girl's night, you name it, this place has the vibes! I'm a bit of a wine snob and their wine list didn't disappoint. A sprinkle of the big cult wines, plus a lovely selection of local wines. Chef even came out with a complimentary delicious vanilla bean ice cream with blueberry compote. Can't wait to come back! read more

Great ambiance and very knowledgeable about their wine. We had wonderful service by their head chef. We tried their lumpia and their little cluckers. The lumpia's were great. The little cluckers are a hard pass. I hate to say they weren't even edible (too much breading - 90% breading and almost so no chicken). We'll come back to try more on the menu and hopefully change our rated experience on the food. read more

My wife and I spent our Friday date night out in one of the best restaurants here in downtown Gilroy called vines and pints. It had a great atmosphere. The staff was very pleasant and friendly and engaging. The food was excellent. Very creative work by the chef it's small portions, and that really makes it fun for sharing. We have a recommend this place. read more

What an amazing time George the owner guided us through multiple wine varietals of Pinot and Granache plus the marinated olives and flatbread pizza with jalapeño and sausage was so good. We also had the lumpia which were phenomenal and the vibe was off the chain live music Dj after and it just kept cracking on wish we could've stayed longer. read more

Delightful beer. Fantastic wings. And the smoked brisket grilled cheese...There's not a better sandwich in existence. Chef's kiss. Music was too loud for me. A few notches down please. read more

Just wow! Had the best top 3 chicken wings I've ever tasted. Crispy, juicy, perfect amount of sauce. Delicious. Then....THEN?!?!? The smoked brisket grilled cheese. Whomever is back there I. The kitchen is a top tier CHEF! The brisket was tender. The cheese perfectly melted. Atmosphere was wonky as hell, but definitely a vibe. 12/10 will be back again and again and again. Not only for the food, but the amazing bartender and staff as well. read more

Wonderful experience and vines and pints. Great service and delicious food. We had the lumpia, flatbread, chicken and beef skewers and truffle fries. All were 10/10. We enjoyed our drinks and food in the wine room, which was so fun. Our server was friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for somewhere downtown that offers both food and drinks. read more

A great place to drink & socialize! Not such a great place to eat. But, this place is so charming and such a fabulous addition to downtown. People are nice, ambiance is comfortable and well appointed, wine selection is great. However, they have a lot of work to do on their kitchen side of things. Food quality/sourcing is eh, execution is more eh; their kitchen needs an overhaul and some direction. If I were reviewing as a restaurant alone, I would probably leave 2 or 3 stars. Having said that, if I were reviewing this place as a wine bar, it would get 5 stars all the way! Highly recommend for a night out with maybe an appetizer...but eat your main meal before or after. read more

The kitchen recently opened! We popped in before a stop Ashford's and Home Goods. We ended up staying for a drink and a full meal. Staff recommended the burger and they were spot on. The truffle burger was delicious! Comes with steak fries and smothered with mushrooms. That's a must try. Ordered a Greek salad, which was equally delicious. All the food was shareable. Tried their new Espresso martini, be careful it's strong and very yummy. It would make a great brunch spot for a bachelorette party or a Sunday funday! We didn't try the mimosas but it looked really fun. Come and support a Gilroy business. It was lovely! read more

This speed just popped up out of nowhere and of course it's my favorite thing meat. It looks absolutely delicious.

The owner George is an angel. My girlfriends and I came to town for my dad's celebration of life. I don't even know how he caught wind of this, bout suddenly he came to our party of ten and said he was obligated to give us a round on the house because of my dad. He is a saint. He is the best of humanity. I fully endorse coming here forever on. The spirit is of the highest vibration. Bless this place. We love you George. Xoxoxo read more

George is providing a great product. Tap menu is rotating, meaning the best keeps rotating in. Lots of local breweries. Wines (my favorite) also rotate. George is happy to give advice. He has never failed me. The kitchen is amazing!!! We have gone in just to get the pizza to go, for our dinner. Reasonable and delicious. Happy to give them 5 stars. They are the best!! read more

My husband and I have been to Vines and Pints a few times and it's been a nice place to chill. After a day of wine tasting we decided to stop by with our friends. At first the vibe was great. The place became crowded towards the end of the night. My husband went to the bathroom and an older man was upset that my husband pushed him while walking by. The walkway towards the bathroom was crowded and my husband did not push him. This guy is out way past his bedtime and clearly doesn't know how to handle a crowd. This immature older man and his friends seemed like regulars at this place. We were asked to leave by management instead of the people who started the argument. I was so embarrassed to recommend this place to my friends. Our nice day out was definitely ruined. I will never recommend this place again. read more

I'm so impressed with the quality and care that goes into the food here. Every bite was full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the owners were friendly and attentive. It's wonderful to see a small business that takes such pride in what they do. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal or a simple appetizer! My first time there and we loved it. read more

I've been to Vines and Pints many times. Everyone is friendly and the beer/wine is great. The owners really love what they do, knowledgeable and happy to tell you more about the selection. The Alice in Wonderland/ Mad Hatter themed Halloween party was super fun, lots of decorations and all the staff dressed up. This is a new gem in town. It's a classy place to enjoy a drink/snack and good conversation. -Adrianna read more

Arrived at about 4:15 PM and they were preparing for a Halloween party. Kids running around and behind the bar. Not really making us feel comfortable. Kids don't belong behind the bar. No food. Just wine and beer. I thought all liquor licenses required food sales. Not sure if we will return. Typical downtown Gilroy. And people ask why we drive to Morgan Hill. read more
