The food was absolutely amazing & easily the star of the show. Even though I'm personally not a wine drinker, you can tell this is a must visit spot if you are. It's a great little wine store that also carries a wonderful selection of local treats and unique finds. Whether you're there for a special meal or just to browse the local goods, it's definitely a place you need to check out. We had a great time!"

Had lunch here with my mom and we enjoyed it a lot. The coffee was pretty smooth and not too hot…read more The caramel macchiato had a lovely creamy top with caramel drizzle. The paninis were quite good, but the filling was a little on the lighter side. My mom said her focaccia bread was slightly undercooked. The maple scone was pretty good and had lots of pecans. The servers were nice, which was a bonus, considering what others had experienced here previously. The coffee lounge is very cute with local artwork on the wall, and their bathroom was nice and clean. They also had two little seating areas for people to work with their laptops and you can close it off with a door inside to cut down on the noise from the cafe- nice little touch!

Great wines and phenomenal charcuterie boards…read more The owner is a retired chef who's passion is wine (and pairing it with delicious things). I stopped by for a glass of wine and ended up leaving with 2 bottles plus a new appreciation for Washington GSMs and pinots! Purchased a 2017 GSM (grenache-syrah-mouvedre) from Latta, Columbia Valley AVA ($25) and a 2019 Syrah from Rockgarden Vineyards, Walla Walla AVA. Looking forward to trying both soon! Definitely splurge in the charcuterie boards; they are works of art!

Can't say for sure, but all the people there were Caucasian and we are not, sooo... Gonna take a stab in the dark, but I bet the owner is white too, which could mean our money isn't good there.

This place was okay! We went for a snack on the water and this was the perfect place for it. There…read moreare patio seats looking over the water and we heard there are frequent otter sightings here (though we didn't see one). They have a great, inexpensive and unpretentious wine list with plenty by the glass. We split a glass of rose and it was lovely! The food was just okay. They bragged about having large portions but our $18 cheese plate was a small snack for sure. It also said it came with fruit and chocolate and they only brought out the cheese, crackers, and nuts. Not sure if they were out, we didn't have enough time to talk to our server to figure this out. The servers were all in a huge hurry and missed a lot. I know they were busy and don't completely blame them, but it was definitely amiss. They asked if we wanted more wine and we said no, so they cleared our food quickly even though we were still eating. They also put a reserved sign on our table while we were still there (we only stayed maybe 25-30 min) and told us that someone else wanted our table. It was kind of rude and we felt super rushed by the servers. We really felt like we were being hurried out and didn't get the full experience. They also took our water glasses and dumped them on the ground next to us while we were still sitting and before we were done. They could not have been more blatant about wanting us to go even though we weren't there long. I would probably revisit on a slower day to see if things improved, but the service wasn't great.

Finding a table for three on Valentine's Day without a reservation usually ends in heartbreak, but…read morewe lucked out here! Despite it being a busy holiday evening, we were seated immediately. The vibe was lively but comfortable, with most tables and the bar filled. Since we visited in February, we leaned heavily into their specials menu. We skipped the small plates and went straight for the mains: the Greek Salad with Steak, the Steak and Gorgonzola Flatbread, and the Vine Burger. Every dish was a hit, though my wife found the red wine vinaigrette on the salad to be just "okay" rather than great. For drinks, we stuck to the mocktails. We tried all three on the menu, and the Blueberry Mule (ginger beer based) was the undisputed winner. We'll have to come back for the cocktails another time since they looked promising! We capped the night with the Apple Blossom pastry with vanilla ice cream--it is a total "must-try." Overall, the service was courteous, the ambiance was spot-on, and parking was a breeze. We'll definitely be back!

The seating is outside, right by the water. Cozy atmosphere with a beautiful and peaceful view right on the water. Paella is cooked in a traditional Spanish way. You pay per plate. At that time it was $25 per plate. Lots of meat and prawns. They had in house made Sangria, $14, not my favorite to be honest. There is also a Kids' menu. Slough food itself is a small store with some deli sold up front and other items like wine and specialty foods and gifts. Lovely people work there. Very welcoming! You do have to come and get on the waitlist to participate in the paella party. It was a long wait but worth it. I would come back again :)

The shop itself is huge and full of amazing wines. The tasting list is diverse and large and they are super flexible in allowing guests to build their own tastings from the list. They also have some snacks! The outdoor area is right on the water and is absolutely lovely. I could spend the whole afternoon out there! For the past two years, my mom and I have joined them for their wine and crab cruises and nothing compares to them- absolute magic. This place is a total gem!
