I do like that a winery has their own kitchen and not some overpriced food truck. Really only losing one star due to slow service, especially how long it took all of food to come out. Group of 6 but it still about 40 minutes for some apps, two pizzas and wrap to come out. The staff is very friendly and it's a nice spot to relax among a town and area where just isn't much to do. The bar area is quite small although there are a lot of tables.

From the owner: West Branch Vineyard is located out in the rural countryside of Lac qui Parle county 7 miles from…read moreDawson, Minnesota. Where our motto comes from “All gravel roads lead to West Branch!” Our old Quonset was built into a full-service bar that accommodates the ATM, TouchTunes, pull tabs & E-tabs. The fireplace is the key attribute in the bar area. Within the dining room features a few TVs, a dart machine and a claw machine for the kiddos. Our loft area is the cool hang out for private parties. It has a few couches and TVs for relaxing with your favorite drink of choice.  Our property is surrounded by 4 acres of different types of Minnesota hardy grapes that we hand pick and deliver to a few of our favorite wineries which they make into wine and redistribute by the glass or bottle here at West Branch Vineyard. You can enjoy one of those acres in our backyard patio next to one of the fire pits and take in the most peaceful spot on the property!! West Branch Vineyard offers over 20 different wines that we picked out from our wine tasting adventures. We do offer cocktails, different beers from other breweries and a damn good award winning Bloody Mary!! Our menu is a bit unconventional for a vineyard. We wood fire ribs, chicken, pulled pork, brisket, and the most sold out item the prime rib. There is also frozen Harry’s pizza and Topper’s Warehouse pizza from Montevideo, MN. Appetizers are also served. Don’t forget the yummy dessert of cheesecake!

Where to start... it was Trivia night so it was packed. My beef tips were cold and when the server…read morecame to get my plate she said "you didn't want the beef tips?" I said "they were cold when they came". She politely offered to have the kitchen remake them but I told her that wasn't necessary. I honestly wasn't that upset about the $19 cold steak. We got 2nd in Trivia so 1st and 2nd place teams were told to go up to the bar for our gift certificate. The gentleman (he has a strange braided rat tail) politely asked if we could give him 5 min. We both said yes. We proceeded to watch this gentleman walk around a bit then go upstairs to a table of women. I assume one was his significant other the way he was rubbing her back and wiping vomit from her face. About 20 minutes later the gentleman finishes and walks to the other end of the bar. A bartender goes up to him and motions to us. By this time many of the guests had left because Trivia was over. The gentleman says "oh ya..." then slowly walks over to an older woman and talks to her. She heads to the "office". Braided rat tail comes over and says "She's getting your gift cards" I asked him "Why were we told to wait for you when she could have gotten the gift cards a long time ago?" He says "I don't know I haven't had a good night. I was cleaning up puke" I replied "Ya, join the club, my food was cold and this is the 2nd time getting $hi&$y service out of 2 times being here and now I've had to wait 20 min for a gift certificate when someone else could have gotten it" he looks at me and says "Then don't come back, I don't care". He walks up the steps across the balcony and goes to the microphone that was setup for Trivia. Into the microphone says "Ladies and Gentleman the girl at the end of the bar just chewed my butt because she had to wait too long for her free money" at this point another guest who had been standing with me (also complaining about their service) yelled that he was out of line. The woman came from the office and handed the bartender the gift cards. He handed them out to us. I laid the gift card on the bar and said I didn't want it because I wouldn't be back. So my advice to the family that owns and runs this business, if you have 10+ people on staff to service a 20 table establishment, you're doing something wrong when at least 7 of the tables still complained about the service they received. Thats how many people I talked to tonight, either while waiting for my 'free money' or on my way out the door. I watched lines of your 'staff' go in and out of the Employee Only room with drinks in hand. You over served that poor woman so much that she was vomiting in the bathroom during round 3 of trivia and vomited on the table before finally passing out at her table. Teach your 'staff' to recognize this behavior. Also, it was completely inappropriate for your 'staff' to get on a microphone and lie about a guest who complained. Even if what he said was true, still inappropriate and unprofessional. No one tried to stop me to apologize for braided rat tail's behavior so that tells me everything I need to know. For any one looking for a recommendation, I wouldn't recommend Rivendale nor Grandview Winery. Both owned by the same people and both have horrible customer service. Unless maybe if you're a regular and they know you. Then you probably get invited into the Employee Only room. Wonder what goes on back there?

I had my wedding rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour and reception at Crow River Winery in June 2026…read more Let me just say, they are wonderful! We catered through the winery for the rehearsal dinner and they knocked it out of the park! We had wonderful pizza, salad, and a variety of desserts. Guests raved about the food! Also, their wine and cider was also a hit - as expected! Now moving to my wedding. Overall, WONDERFUL experience. To start, the winery is reasonably priced. The staff is wonderful - shoutout to Jillian, Alexis and our bartender - they took care of all setup and tear down. They were flexible with table arrangements and allow you to truly make the day your own. There is a great, spacious room for the bridal party to get ready upstairs as well! Our guests continue to comment on how lovely the outdoor space and indoor space is at Crow River Winery. There was ample space for our guests to relax inside or outside and space for the kiddos to run around and get some energy out. I have no complaints or suggestions for improvements. Our day was absolutely stress free and perfect. I would choose Crow River Winery over and over as a wedding venue - as well as a great place to stop by for a nice evening on the patio with great wine, cider, or beer AND food. Thank you Crow River Winery for helping create my dream wedding!
