In the tasting room Michelle and Lori were truly kind and helpful. They provided excellent information, care and service! The wine selection is nice. Limited for those who like sweet wines, unless that was on another menu. They serve lunch and dinner I didn't get to partake this time. Not the most aesthetic or exciting wine places to drink outside but good ambiance. read more

A lovely afternoon sipping on their sparkling, this one is on the drier side. The other sparkling they serve is sweeter. Their winery is a part of the wine trolley with a stop here and two other wineries. Their staff is friendly and hospitable. Their tasting room was decked out for Halloween. And tomorrow, 9/28/2025 their last "Happy Hour Sunday" with live music and all wine and beer glasses are $8. read more

Garre Winery - Ends tomorrow 9/28/2025 - Wineries Near Me - Livermore, California

We came for a wine tasting and food, and thoroughly enjoyed our experience! The server sat us on the patio by ourselves and walked us through a great list of wines. The tasting was only $25/pp & you get it back if you buy their wine. We also ate at their cafe - we called ahead and picked it up, then ate it with our wine on the patio. It was a perfect experience, definitely got me into wine tasting! read more

This is a cute winery in Livermore along Tesla road, where there are dozens of other wineries. This one is rather rustic, and they have a large outdoor patio covered by umbrellas. On this Sunday, there's live music with a country singer. Tasting is $25, and their wines are pretty decent. The view from their patio is really nice with the vineyards in the background. It's a nice way to spend a chill afternoon, sipping wine and listening to music. read more

Mother's Day brunch was very good. Chicken piccata, prime rib and plenty of fruit entrees. Wait staff had our drinks always filed and very courteous. It was worth the trip from Alameda to Livermore. -stars! read more

We dropped by Sunday around 1:30pm. It wasn't busy at all. There were only 2 other tables taken inside. It was windy so we sat inside the tasting room. They have a spacious outdoor patio. $25 tasting fee of 5 wines. The wines get better as you go down the list. You start with lighter wines and go to a bit bolder. Still not as bold as we liked but it was fine. No outside food allowed here. read more

Went for a tasting in the afternoon and they have a pretty outdoor seating area and the overall tasting experience was really good! I'd say the only downside is they don't have any finger food at the actual tasting site, but you are allowed to purchase from their restaurant down the road which is approx a 5 min walk away and the food their is tasty and pairs well with the wine! read more

Visited Garre tasting room today with a friend. Had a great experience, excellent service and delicious wine. Loved their cute patio surrounded by vineyards. Tables with fire-pits kept us cozy. $25 tasting fee was waived since I purchased two bottles of wine. Definitely, coming back soon. read more

If you are a future bride looking for a winery wedding venue (that can hold up to 300 guests), I can't recommend Garre Winery enough! My husband and I booked the venue with Irene Williams (she is absolutely lovely and very informative) in March of 2024 and we were married in June 2025. Our guest count was 250 and our guests are still raving about the food and ambiance. We had an outdoor ceremony with an indoor reception and the service was spectacular. I'd like to personally call out Lindsay Besser from Garre who was our day of coordinator. From start to finish Lindsay was responsive, professional and a joy to work with. Her years of experience showed through and she wasn't afraid to make recommendations for our vendors and our day-of timeline. She was proactive in helping me get things done (I decided to not hire a wedding planner) and between the two of us, we were able to plan and execute the day perfectly. Garre's wedding package includes silverware, tables, table cloths, some decor items, food, beverages (people loved the wine and champagne), an open bar (a must for our group) and even late-night eats. There is also an outdoor section of the venue that is beautiful during golden hour. We booked the florals, dessert and music (dj/emcee) separately. So glad we went with Garre for our wedding day! read more

We just had our 50th HS reunion there this past weekend. Our Chairman contacted Abe, the owner and Chef, and they worked out the details. Abe worked with our start point of expected classmates and was flexible in working with our growing numbers. The location, nearby hotels, ease of working with him, presentation and food was wonderful. A huge thank you to Abe and Garre for helping us create a wonderful memory for all that attended. read more

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Garre Winery, and I can honestly say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and passionate about the wines they craft. The tasting room was warm and inviting, with stunning views of the vineyard that set the perfect backdrop for a relaxing afternoon. Kim and Laurie were such a pleasure and very welcoming! They both made our group feel welcomed and interacted very well with all of us girls ! Each wine we sampled was distinct and beautifully balanced, it's clear that a lot of care and expertise goes into every bottle. Whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or just beginning your journey, there's something here for everyone. I really loved this experience! read more

Excellent for private events. Easy parking. Friendly staff. Spacious property for tasting, and cafe.

Went for lunch with 6 of my friends about 10 months ago. The ambiance was ok lots of heavy dark wood. The service was terrible. Very slow and virtually disappeared after serving our food. I ordered a Caprese Panini. The bread was not pressed but was dry and grilled separately. I actually scraped the roof of my mouth taking a bite. If the waitress was around I would have sent it back. read more

Lovely winery restaurant, located on Livermore winery county. It's a beautiful summer, we seated outdoors, it's relaxing. We had sandwiches, salad and soups (tomato bisque and clam chowder). So far so good. Will comeback to try other stuff in the menu. They didn't serve the bread till we were halfway done with our meals, the bread was bad, not freshly made I think. I had to get lot of olive oil and balsamic dip to get it down my throat. read more

Such a lovely place for brunch! Everything we ordered was delicious, but my favorite was their Pear Bruschetta! Their calamari was a hit as well, nice and crispy with the aioli sauce! Must try is their mimosa flight and sangria! read more

Kim was an amazing host. I brought my brother in law & his friends to their first wine tasting and she made it soooo enjoyable. She explained how to properly wine taste and what to look out for. She definitely empowered them to see what they liked and didn't. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you Kim sooo much! It looks like you won over a couple of gentlemen to come back and enjoy a few bottles for their D & D sessions! read more

My 50th High School reunion was celebrated here. I was on the planning committee. The event went off without a hitch. Abe, the executive chef, made it possible for our class to thoroughly enjoy our evening. The buffet food was delicious. The staff were unobtrusive, gracious and helpful. The venue was perfect for our group of around 100 people. we could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Garre Winery and Abe read more

I attended a wedding at this place. It was hella hot out but there was some shade on our side so that was nice. The outdoor setting is really pretty. After the weeding we went to their hall area. It was really nice and big. They do have an outside area with Astro turf. All of our event was inside. To hot. They had an open bar but 'WELL' only . Wow I have some friends that own bars and the Well here was totally no name. Which is about 2 dollars a bottle. I couldn't drink it. They did let me buy my own drink from the rest of the bar. Thank the stars hahah. I got Remy XO at 27 a glass. They bartender poured me heavy which I loved. Tipped him well. The food was surprisingly good. They had short ribs and salmon as the mains. Cooked nicely and the salmon wasn't dry. I enjoyed the food. We had a great time and wouldn't mind going here again. read more

We went for the Mother's Day brunch and it was amazing. Prime rib, omelette stations and on and on so much great food. Wife had mimosas which were really good and I had an excellent Bloody Mary. We eat at the Garre cafe often which is always great food and excellent service!! The event sold out so I recommend signing up early for next year. read more

7 of us trekked out into the rain for lunch and a wine flight. Our server was Riley's mom aka Kim! She was an absolute joy because we had some requests and she was fabulous throughout. I haven't the head for wine. No problem! This is still a fun face for non-drinkers and wine-sippers alike! One among us was adamant that she was not drinking. You may have guessed she finished my flight and bought 3 bottles. Many bottles were purchased and there was so much fun. Was this without issue? Nope but they fixed things so fast and fabulously who cares!!! Riley's mom will take great care of you so tip her well. read more

My husband and I don't live in the area, but are members and have been to Garre Winery many times over the years. We finally had a chance to stop in and grab several of our orders, and received exceptional service. Kady was super friendly, very knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful in getting our order together. Truly the best experience we've ever had at Garre. Thank you, Kady, for patiently going through our order and providing us with additional recommendations! read more

I recently stopped by to pick up a year's worth of wine, only to learn that my membership had never actually been charged due to an expired credit card. Fair enough--I wasn't aware, but I appreciated the clarification and asked to cancel the membership since I hadn't visited in over a year. At that point, things took an unexpectedly hostile turn. Despite the fact that there had been no charge, and I had received no wine or benefits, I was told I would need to pay for the full year in order to cancel. When I expressed confusion--given that there had been no transaction--they suggested I had a "character flaw," accused me of being "unethical," and even likened the situation to "stealing." That was... surprising. Especially since I had come in specifically to resolve the issue transparently and in good faith. I ended up paying the $75 cancellation fee just to put the experience behind me. Ironically, I had just thad my birthday lunch which was lovely (and expensive) on the property--without using the membership discount--because I didn't want to be accused of "unethical" behavior while canceling. The setting is undeniably beautiful, and the restaurant is wonderful, which makes the interaction all the more disappointing. It's a shame to leave with such a bitter taste, but I suppose some lessons are worth the cost. I sincerely hope others have a more gracious experience. read more

This is a great venue for any large party/ gathering. The food was excellent and the bar is professional. We were gathered there for a high school reunion of approximately 160 attendees.

Corporate events could also expect a great experience there. read more

My 1st & last visit was 4 years ago for lunch. I went back this week for lunch. The walk up was cute with all the flowers. I don't remember this on my last visit but it was also in the brunt of summer last time. I was lost on where to go to check-in. I stopped a server to ask and he was so annoyed by my question. We didn't have reservations but the hostess said it was okay. After some time, we asked for bread, and it took such a long time to come out, and it was cold too. Dk what the long wait was about. It could've at least been warmed up. Same for the soup. That also took forever. The soup of the day was Italian wedding soup. It was incredibly delicious and well seasoned. The main dishes also took too long to come out. My burger patty could've been more seasoned. The bacon helped a little bit. We didn't bother with dessert because we would've been waiting even longer. read more

This has been our go to spot for years to have our Mother's Day brunch. This year was lackluster. The food just wasn't good. The salads were boring literally just leaves and dressing. The eggs Benedict had NO taste. The hollandaise sauce was so thin. It just overall sucked and that's usually one dish goes well. There was no carving station, no bread. The coffee was gross. It was disappointing. I will say the shrimp cocktail, the omelette station and the fruit were good lol. Would we come here again? I don't know. The place is nice. The service is pretty good but I don't know what happened with the food. We were waiting for the menu to be posted online like usual but they didn't do it this time around. We felt it was a waste of money this year. It was also less busy than prior years. read more

This place is beautiful, I'll give it that. The dining room is gorgeous, perfect for a small wedding or event, and the views were wonderful looking over the vineyard. The campus around the restaurant was awesome for walking around with beautiful details all over. We had late lunch in one of the dining rooms. It was pretty empty, which was nice for COVID, and the waiter always had his mask on, so we felt very safe. The bread was awesome, as well as the appetizers (the spinach dip was amazing!) but the main meal left a lot to be desired. Most of us weren't impressed (dry sandwiches, my carbonara was fishy, the ravioli was more spinach than cheese), which was disappointing compared to the lovely atmosphere and the prices we were paying. I think a stop in here for the views, a tasting, and some appetizers would be well worth it, but I'm not sure it's worth it for the whole dining experience. read more

We came to a wedding here and it was just lovely. I am not sure if the food was provided by the winery or outside catering but it was very good. The wedding was held in a lovely outdoor space. After the wedding we went inside for a cocktail hour and appetizers we're also severed. Then we went into a dining room and it was lovely decorated. A dinner buffet was set up and we were severed pretty quickly. The food was really good. There was dancing and cake was served later. As a wedding guest I was impressed and it was a very nice experience. read more

We were a party of six and met for lunch. None of us had been here before so we came with a blank slate. Google reviews were very good. I'm a bit surprised by negative Yelp reviews. Bottom line, we had a lovely time. We sat outside at the cafe. We ordered a ton of appetizers plus dessert and all was quite tasty, no complaints. Also, ordered Garre champagne and wine which we enjoyed. All in all, Garre Winery is excellent. It's nice to feel like you're in the wine country without driving to Napa/Sonoma. We all live in the East Bay. Thanks!! read more

My sister and I celebrated our birthdays at Garre's winery this weekend. Because of the rain we couldn't be seated outside. Raquel was able to book us at one of their tasting rooms. She was super sweet. She also suggested for us to book at the cafe after for cake and dinner. Carlos, who works at the cafe was able to book us for a party of 12. Their service is great, the ambiance is nice. I'm so glad and thankful that I didn't have to cancel my birthday plans because of this weather and they were able to accommodate us... will definitely be going back. Thank you Raquel for being so sweet and helpful. read more

It was like a the warmest HUG. We ordered Easter dinner from Garre. It had been our first drive in the car since this whole quarantine started. Just the drive from Concord to Livermore, I realized how much we take for granted. Being able to just pull our car up, the staff greeted us, all organized and dropped our lovely wine and gorgeously prepared and wrapped food into the trunk of our car. We took a little stroll on the grounds of freshly cut grass. I was suddenly reminded, that simple things are so important. With a tear in my eye writing this, I cannot thank Garre and staff enough. You made our Easter, the best we have ever had. I hope you went home shortly after taking care of all of us, and had the best yet.

Had a Family Dinner, Outdoors, cuz we have a brand new Baby. It started with real Cigarettes y Good Service, we sat down at 5pm. But it got really busy, & had to wait for our server to come check with us. I came her for the Ribeye, cuz they only serve it on Fridays & Saturdays. For the Price $72, It was Not worth it at all. It was a Cheap, Low quality Cut of Meat. But, the Jambalaya was Good, & so was the Artichoke Dip. The Mussels Apetizers was lacking in flavor. And my Favorite Dessert, Tiramisu, was a Total Disappointment. It did Not taste like Tiramisu at all. It did Not taste like any kind of dessert. It seems like there were quite a few missing ingredients when they made it. But, I will still.come back here for the Jambalaya & Wine read more

Ambiance is beautiful at this winery, but the arancini appetizer (Italian fried rice balls) came out with the cheese inside freezing cold. When we told the server, she proceeded to squeeze the cold cheese portion on our plate with her bare fingers. I understand she wanted to confirm they were frozen or cold, but that was not a pleasant experience to watch someone use their bare fingers physically pick up and grab the food on your plate. Don't recommend the restaurant. read more
