I took my boyfriend here for his birthday recently and I can't even begin to express how lovely of an experience this was. I had got us the I think it was called trio, where we got to sample wine, spirits, and ciders and everything was so Devine. The guy (I'm sorry I can't remember your name) was so sweet he walked us through everything and answered all our questions. We waited for lunch which wasn't long after our drinks and got the fries and wings. Id also love to mention that we got free glasses with the purchase of the tastings. We were so enthralled by the beautiful, relaxing, and wonderful experience. It's in a beautiful area next to a gorgeous lake and they had really sweet workers. Even though it was a little over an hour drive we will definitely be coming down here again. read more

If you're in need of a fall activity, Warwick Valley is the perfect spot! Screaming autumn vibes all around with beautiful scenery, apple picking, & apple cider donuts! This is my fav spot to visit during the season every year! Their wines & ciders are SO delicious - I can't get enough of their pumpkin cider! If you don't know where to begin, they have tastings of their wines, spirits, and ciders so you can find your drink of choice. The staff is also super welcoming and knowledgeable during this so you learn so much about each beverage. It does get very crowded in the fall so plan your visit accordingly. read more

Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery - Lobster Roll + pumpkin cider - Wineries Near Me - Warwick, New York

What a nice time I had here with my family. We went a few weeks ago. And it was packed. But everyone was having such a good time. And the weather was nice and chilly. It was actually perfect. There was so many activities there like apple picking, shopping, music, dancing etc.... we personally did not do the apple picking because it was a bit too pricey for our pockets but we enjoyed the food, the music anf the company. There was laughter everywhere! What big smiles everyone had on their faces, including the children. We really enjoyed visiting. Back in Orlando and I'm still daydreaming of going back. It was the comforting feeling I've missed. read more

Why did I waste my time at this place again? $10 today for parking despite the voicemail clearly saying only sat and sun sept and Oct. we call to ask time the band starts... girl says 1-5pm. Rush to get here on time to get a spot on the patio. Pay an outrageous 'parking fee' (for what??? Do they not make enough money that they have to price gouge like this. Patio is dead. No sign of band. Winds up band starts at 2pm. Place is a mess and the employees are clueless. Oh and $20 to rent a wine chiller. Oh and service fee added to take out food. And they still want a tip. Criminal. Oh god. Worst duo 'band' ever! What a waste! Couldn't keep a tune! Do better Warwick! Try the Arborline or more bunker boys! We left after one song! Ps no prices on the cheese or crackers bc apparently according to the staff, theyre 'market price' and they change weekly' what is this... lobster tail in Manhattan? And an attitude they gave when we asked for the prices. Maybe price your food if you don't want to be bothered. This place is going wayyyyyyy downhill. read more

Finally made it to Warwick valley winery! I was very impressed with the layout and overall experience and definitely will return with a larger group in the future. We came as a party of four and moved around from inside to outside and then inside due to the off and on rain. There is a very larger outdoor patio with umbrellas and tables and a covered section that people pay to rent out. There are two covered patios as well as indoor seating. On weekend there is live music so it gets extremely loud when you're inside. They have a great amount of wine and ciders to try as well as their own hard liquors. I started with a wine flight and ended up drinking a bottle of the black dirt blush as it was $12 for a bottle and $8 for a glass. The smoked maple old fashioned was extremely refreshing with its citrus taste and overall flavor profile. The ciders here are always delicious once you decide which is your favorite. We also ordered food and I can say I was definitely not impressed by the food here. The buffalo wings were pretty rubbery and the fries tasted as if they were old and fried for a second time. The poutine with pulled pork was alright but nothing special. The inside has a nice rustic charm as well as the gift shop and bar areas. There is ample parking on the paved lot and grass field as well. Everything is either order at the bar or food counter and there is no table service. The staff behind the bar are super helpful and friendly when it comes to selecting drinks and choosing your order. Not to mention how fast and efficient they work too! I would give 5 stars however I was shocked at the amount of young children (easily 8 and under) just running around the tables inside and outside. I understand children are allowed at this winery but as parents I would say to perhaps not let them run through the inside and outside patio areas as it is a hazard waiting to happen and definitely ruins the experience for other parties trying to relax and enjoy their time there. read more

My friend wanted to introduced us to a beautiful winery and took us here! It's lovely!! Tons of outdoor seating as well as indoor seating! I tried the cider tasting which was quite good! I really enjoyed all the flavors! They had the original, pear (yummm), black current (I believe this is a seasonal one), raspberry (tad sour, but very subtle!) and one that tasted more hoppy (so if you want a cider that tastes similar to a ipa, they got you covered!) All of them were nice! I ended up buying a candle that smelled like the pear one! We all got food which was very tasty! I had the chicken tacos. They don't disappoint. My other friend got the flaky Brie pastry and my other friend got the very generous portioned chicken sandwich! I had a good time here. They have a stage and apple picking-- they offer tons of activities...! It'll be cool to come back! read more

Haven't been there in a while and I really love the place, but a mandatory 15% service fee to " help our employees" is garbage. An order is placed, boxes put on the counter- the same as Mc Donald's, DD etc. There is no wait staff, no one bussing tables, bringing me water etc. Forcing a customer to pay a mandatory tip is just a cash grab. Will never go back and advised everyone that I used to go there with about it read more

Such a beautiful winery! We visited on Sunday as my friend was celebrating her birthday there. We had such a great day! It's $10 cash to get in and $40 a bag if you choose to go apple picking. You can fill the whole bag and it's about 25lbs. The prices for their food and cocktails are about average. We got their lobster roll which was $27. They have this delicious cocktail called the Gin Pig which is $10 a glass or $30 for the whole bottle. BUY the WHOLE BOTTLE!!! It's delicious. You can pay with a credit card for food & drinks, I think it's a $10 minimum. They have some tables but you can bring blankets & chairs to set up picnic style , which is what we did. They had a live band on Sunday and you can set up your area over there or take a tractor ride to "The White Tent" which also sells wine & cocktails. They have 2 tractors that run from the apple orchard to the main winery area that are free of charge. And you can jump on them at any time to experience all of Warwick Winery. All in all we had a great day and would definitely come back again! read more

This place is a beautiful escape from the chaos. Came here on a quiet night but I hear they get lively. The location is tucked away in the woods not too far outside the city though. Gorgeous property and amazing wine, spirits, and THEY MAKE DOCS CIDER!!!! I've always bought it but never knew it was made so locally. Worth a drop by, they have a cool taste testing flight that gives you a nice little run down of everything and the bartender is amazing at explaining it all. read more

beautiful place and a fun fall activity but sooo crowded! parking gets full too so you may have to go up the "hill" and walk back down to where most of the activities are. Good food is served though but wait line can get long. if you dont have the patience and so not like large crowds then stay clear from this place lol but if youre up for it, this will be a fun spot for you. short review as we really didnt stay a while but i liked the ambiance there though. read more

Our friend wanted to show us around Warwick a bit and had told us about this place and was very excited to take us here. My friend did a wine/cider tasting while I enjoyed a beer as I am not a wine/cider person and my other friend got a mixed drink. I got a specialty cocktail at first but it was wayyyy to sweet for me. So that is why I opted for a beer. We had lunch here which to my surprise was very tasty. I had a nice chicken sandwich with cheese, my friend had tacos which looked incredible and I forgot what my other friend had as he had eaten it before I got a chance to take a picture/ ask what he was eating. They had a well stocked little cute store in the area and plenty of seating options. We were the only ones eating in the indoor area. They had beautiful land where they had alot of sitting options. It was a fun spot to come to. read more

My wife and I consider Warwick our happy place. The Bake Brie needed to be cooked a bit longer. Hot Soppressata Pizza is our favorite. The Gorgonzola Fries hit too. Grabbed a few bottles, we'll a dozen bottles of Cider for the road, along with Gin Pig. We'll be back in late July before football season starts. read more

Upon driving in, you're charged $10 per car to enter. The parking lot is on a grassy area which could get really muddy if it rains. You're able to do a cider tasting or a wine tasting, which we did outdoors. It was very affordable, only $8 to taste 6 ciders. They have some table seating right in front of where the live band plays. There is a lot of empty grass area where you could bring your own chairs and blankets to sit on. I wish they supplied more tables and chairs because we went on a Sunday and it was pretty busy so we did have to wait for a place to sit. I would skip the food completely. We ordered the pulled pork sandwich and the Margherita pizza. Both did not taste the best. The atmosphere is nice and there is ample opportunity to take beautiful pictures. You can also do sole picking. There is also a store where you can purchase the beverages. They sell apple cider donuts in a bag, 6 for $6. They're okay. They were a bit cold since they have them sitting on the counter. Overall, it was a decent place to visit on a weekend in the fall, however, I don't see the concept of charging $10 per car to enter considering you're spending money while you're there. read more

Beautiful grounds. We came through on a Monday afternoon when there weren't any of the special events going on, but still really enjoyed our visit. We sampled the trio- wines, ciders and spirits. The ciders stood out as really special. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, beautiful drive- definitely worth a visit! read more

Can't say any great or outstanding. The wines were good but not great. What I didn't care for is that when ordering food they included the mandatory 15% service charge as a sales taxable item. They are being "cute" by calling it a "service fee" and not a tip. I don't have an issue with any mandatory tip, but call it what it is. I'm not familiar enough with NYS sales tax rules, but I know in most states, it's not sales taxable. While $.56 isn't a noticeable amount of money. The principle is! read more

I spent a fantastic Saturday afternoon here with my family, trying ciders and having a picnic. Upon entering, parking was easy and well organized, with an attendant guiding the cars. Tastings of ciders, wine, or spirits are offered and include a souvenir glass. We did the cider flight (Doc's Hard Ciders) and they were all delicious. We purchased some bottles to take home (found a lone peach cider, yesss! Probably from last season's batch as I'm told it's only in season for a short time in the summer and it's not time yet). A fridge is stocked with some chilled bottles and cheeses & charcuterie as well. They also sell cordials and liqueurs. The prices are very reasonable for everything. The food was pretty decent, and there is plenty of seating both inside and outside, with another bar outdoors. Live music is presented on the weekends. The grounds are clean and well kept, with many picnic tables all around, but you can also bring own chairs and picnic blankets to chill on the grass, which we did. They're open year-round, and in autumn there is apple picking. We had a wonderful and relaxing time exploring the grounds and trying locally crafted beverages, and can't wait to return! read more

always a wonderful experience, if you don't enjoy yourself it's likely because you didn't prepare well. arm yourself with patience, there will be lines because everyone comes for the ambiance. wear comfortable flat shoes. it is a large property, plenty of space if you want to sit indoors , on the patio, wooden tables, and the occasional outdoor concert so helpful hint to bring your own chairs and blankets. two food lines, one outdoors and inside - both are fast and efficient. you order and purchase at the register and they supply receipt and text your phone (wifi password on the bottom) when food is prepared for pick up. wine and drinks are separated in another room so prepare to divide and conquer if you come with a group. stay a while, enjoy the refreshing open air and sample the offerings. read more

Absolutely beautiful space and outdoor areas. A few small touches need attention. A hot day and everyone was struggling with the umbrellas. Many were old, broken, busted. New ones to kick off the season would be a good investment!!! Charcuterie board $30 and NO crackers. Never heard of such a thing. Small touches and attention go a long way. read more

A friend and I visited Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery on a hot summer day. We arrived early and were able to grab some drink and a table on the outdoor patio. The band was setting up which gave us ample time to relax and grab some food before the live music a started and the crowd came in. We each got a salad and a side of truffle fries to split. Everything was delicious. The only downfall was the lack of reprieve from the heat . It was a bit of a sticky day and we thought that there would be some coolness near the restroom or in the food ordering area, but that's summer I guess! Overall, it was a great experience and would be happy to visit again. read more

Warwick winery is very nice. We went to sample a few ciders and bourbon. The host was fantastic and explained the original history. I had a flight of cider. The rest of the ladies had a mix of items. I got a nice light cider that would pair with almost everything. Ambiance - it has an authentic feel. Great place to chill. read more

I wouldve given this place 4 stars but for now its like a 3.8 What I liked: So much to see, very large, great for groups, live music What I loved: the many different options of drinks, there was everything from cocktails to wines and ciders, and the price was very reasonable What went wrong: Wooo chile the lines the lines the lines are so long. We spent more time waiting on lines then the chance to actually enjoy the place. Mind you its more like 2 hrs from NY with weekend traffic so very disappointing to have spent so much time in lines My recommendation: avoid Saturdays, get there as soon as it opens. Maybe even avoid October all together... the crowds are just a bit wild. Also bring a blanket or chairs to sit on! You're welcome read more

Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery - The menu - Wineries Near Me - Warwick, New York

Parking is ridiculous. They have people parking so far away up a hill. We were told there was transportation every 15 min and when it passed it did not stop. Parking attendants are clueless teenagers that have no idea what's going on. All your food has a 15% gratuity added onto it in lieu of a tip the menu says. I refuse to give them a tip on the bottles of wine that we bought and served ourselves, and the staff person gave me an annoyed look. The flyer says you're not allowed to bring any food or drinks on the property while we were there. We saw many people walking in with all kinds of coolers and food. No one was checking anything. I would definitely go elsewhere next time the wine wasn't even good. Be prepared to use porta potties not being able to access a table because it's so crowded. You need to bring your own chairs blankets, etc. so basically we paid $10 to park our car and another hundred dollars for food just for the pleasure of sitting on their grass. We will be going elsewhere next time. read more

Still a favorite. I've been here a few times and everything is always well organized. My boyfriend and I met some friends here the past weekend and we arrived super early to get a table and some chairs. We probably got there right when they opened. Parking is 10 bucks and they guide you right to your spot. We picked a nice table right by some trees and close to their food and drink shed. The place fills up very quick so coming early is key to getting a table! Otherwise, bring a blanket and some chairs because the lawn is huge. The food is actually fantastic here. My favorite is always the margarita pie. So crispy, not floppy at all and topped with a delicious basil oil drizzle. Yummm, if they sold that basil oil I'd be the first to buy it. Their fries are also so crispy and perfectly seasoned. My boyfriend liked his grilled chicken sandwich too. The ciders are the star for me. I especially love the pumpkin and the original apple ciders. Some of the people in our group favored the Black Dirt Red for wines. We also did some tastings. They're absolutely worth the price and everyone who works there is so well educated on their drinks it's very impressive. The ground itself is really nice, the market is fantastic. If you walk past the tents they also have more food trucks. Tons of options here - perfect for a day out with friends or family. read more

It had been over 10 years since my last visit to the Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery, so I was not sure what to expect when I returned recently with some friends. I was surprised to discover that there was a $10 fee per car during apple-picking season, which was a bummer. The winery was open from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm, and we tried to beat the crowd by arriving around 11:45 am. Well, the place was still rather packed, even at that earlier hour. We had to drive up a long hill to park our car, and then walk back down it to the main winery. The building housed a restaurant, shop, and bar. It was surrounded by a tasting tent, a stage with live music, a patio with small tables, a BBQ food truck, and a grassy area with picnic tables. My friends had already secured a picnic table before our arrival, so we had a home base for our stuff. I put in a food order for a Grilled Chicken Sandwich and grabbed a glass of their Sangria at the bar, while I waited. The fruity wine had been made with their Black Dirt Red Wine and their Winston's Harlequin Port, making it very potent, but also extremely easy to drink...perhaps too easy! My sandwich was tasty, but took about 30 minutes to be ready. I knew the place was more crowded at that point, but it was a very lengthy wait. After we had all eaten, we took a short walk to the hayride, which took us up to the orchard to pick some apples. It cost $35 for a one-half bushel apple bag, so I just watched my friends' children do the picking. I thought this cost was crazy, but, they did manage to get it from customers, so I understand why they continued to price it as such. They had a wide variety of large, blemish-less apples ripe for the picking. After that excursion, we took the hayride back down to pack up our stuff, grab some boozy supplies to-go from their shop, and drive home. Our afternoon at the Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery was not cheap, but it certainly was fun! The place offered something for everyone and made for an excellent daytrip. read more

Very reasonably priced wine, cider and whisky flights, especially compared to that of LI's North Fork! The wines (again as compared), are okay. I found one that I liked but was not blown away. Very nice indoor and outdoor grounds and food options so this is a nice day out or with a group! read more

This winery and farm is definitely a must do especially during the spring, summer and fall months. I went towards the end of the changing of the leaves in the fall and was lucky to visit with great weather. This is a vast place for spreading out on your own beach chairs or just relaxing on a blanket. The weekend I visited was very busy with music, great food (specifically the pizza) and lovely pumpkin cider. Look forward to visit in the spring when flowers are in bloom. read more

We came up here on a Friday. Big difference than coming on a weekend! Not crowded and just a really enjoyable day. We started off by having lunch first. Their pizza is so delicious!! It's thin and just so good! You must try it! We shared a nice bottle of sangria with it. They have taste tasting if you like to do that as well. Then we headed out and picked apples. They charge $35 a bag. It's easy access and flat. Nice grounds too. We come every year. On weekends they have live music but very crowded!! read more

Went here yesterday for a day trip. Very crowded and packed, but I'd say that's the only down fall. Every staff member we encountered were kind, friendly and not remotely stressed by the crowds. Everything had a long line. Wine tasting, food, the store. But the grounds are well kept, very spacious, and lots to do. Tractor rides were nice and didn't feel we waited too long to get on. It was $10 a car to get in. We waited in traffic quite a while to get there. Inside we felt it was quicker to buy a bottle of wine and they give you cups and ice then it was to wine taste. Bottles ranged from $13-20. They uncork for you. Wine tasting was $10 for 5 wines and a wine glass the tent was just too crowded. People were waiting over an hour to try and get to the wine. Apple picking was $35 for a bag you can fill. Cider donuts were $6 for half a dozen. Overall a fun day. Pricing was good I thought. Just very crowded but you expect that on a gorgeous fall day. read more

We picked a good day to go today. It had drizzled just a bit but the rain stopped once we arrived at the winery. Really beautiful grounds and very welcoming staff. Enjoyed some nice samplings of cider. You can keep the glasses. The staff members were really helpful and knowledgeable. Parking was a breeze. You can also buy Vermont cheese here too. Yum! They had a lot of flowers planted all around. All kinds of colors. To be surrounded by all this beautiful nature really was so nice. Even a beautiful verse in the distance! (Sigh) I saw some signs for some upcoming live musical performances here on the grounds. A beautiful place. read more

It's my second time here. You just grab tables or go on the grass. I came on a Saturday when it wasn't too busy. There was a band playing rock. It was hot, definitely try to get under an umbrella if you're at the table. There is a $10 credit card minimum. They have great liquors, ciders and wines. The food comes in large portions even though it's a bit pricey. The grill has a 15% service charge on top of tip. The store has a nice variety of local products. The bathroom was gross. It's a beautiful area though. We drove here. It could be difficult for Ubers to get to you. They have WiFi but signal is low. read more
