I honestly never would have discovered this place if it wasn't for booking the Airbnb upstairs. I…read morealmost skipped it because I was under the impression it was strictly a wine bar, but I would have missed out big time--they actually serve top-shelf cocktails in both the wine bar and the restaurant downstairs! The Highlights: * The Drinks: I spent some time at the bar and Paolo mixed up some of the best top-shelf Old Fashioneds I've ever had. Perfectly balanced and high-quality. * The Food: After some live music, I headed downstairs for dinner. Todd in the kitchen is a master at his craft--he made me the most incredible Smash Burger. As a burger connoisseur, I'm putting this firmly in my Top 5. * The Stay: The Airbnb upstairs was very nice and comfortable, making the whole experience seamless. Final Verdict: Don't let the "Wine Bar" label fool you--this is a full-scale culinary destination. Between Paolo's cocktails and Todd's burgers, it's a powerhouse. I'll definitely be back!

We didn't hear any noise coming from any of the other rooms, which was nice. We liked the ease of checking in and out. Note, the rooms are on the second floor and no one is there to help you with your bags. Be mindful of what you take because you'll have to haul it up the stairs. No big deal, but we werent expecting it. I would like to note that our visit to the wine lounge was a little "off." We definitely got a "oh no, people are here" vibe from the staff. We were the only people in there for awhile and felt very unwelcome and uncomfortable. It seemed like we had intruded on their social time. We met someone in the hallway while we were getting into our room and she was VERY friendly and welcoming, which made the vibe in the lounge stand out that much more. As such, we had no particular desire to have drinks there again during out stay. That being sad, we would stay there again. We particularly enjoyed the morning visit from a local cat who walked by our window. :)

We we're all shocked at how rude she was. It's not like we were going to buy the baby a beer? But, all of the girls started to walk out and I asked the bartender if I could just have a drink while they all waited outside. She said she wasn't going to serve me and that I needed to leave right then. There were a few other customers that stood up for us and told the bartender she was being rude. One couple even offered to buy us a round at another bar so our night wasn't ruined from her. Long story short, we won't be back just based on how rude the staff was.

Kind of heartbroken…read moresince we drove down from Portland and I told my kids it's the best show ever where everyone is happy dancing and singing. Here's the issue; DON't buy a seat unless you are either comfortable standing and blocking everyone behind you, or only sitting the entire time... or the risk of your view being blocked the entire time by someone standing or dancing during the show in the seated area. At the California Honeydrops concerts just now, who I've seen a minimum of 10 times at other venues, absolutely everyone was in a seat until a few stood half way through and then others in the seated area felt upset they couldn't see and left...these are the most expensive tickets-the seated. There is no space for those with seats to stand and dance without blocking others except for the very back - up the hill of the venue all the way on the top of the lawn, where you cannot see and cannot hear the music. As for the area in front of the stage and sides off the stage are only for those who bought SRO tickets. Huge bummer, because this means the only way to dance and enjoy the shows is to get those SRO(standing room only) tickets, unless you want to be so high up you cannot see... and if you get the SRO tickets you can never sit. Again; you can choose to be one of the only people standing in the seated area and block everyone behind you from seeing and enjoying the show. We're in the front of the seating area and so many people who do not have tickets here have been caught by actual seat holders in their seats. The SRO is being patrolled but not the seated area. By patrolled I mean literally 5 people and a security guard on each side of the SRO. This particular show only it looks like it has about 70% of the seats/tickets present - but is "sold out". This is due to the AQI(fire smoke) and the early start (because of the fires). I was hoping with so many no shows and offering to pay for SRO on top of my seat I already paid for, I could get dancing space, but that was a no go too. The California Honeydrops in every other venue I've seen has been near every single person standing. The venue in Portland they play at removes all the seats so the floor is standing only, while the upper tier and balcony are for sitting. The Honeydrops crowd is a kind and loving one, where those who are less able bodied are always shown to the front of the stage standing spaces so they can see and everyone can dance... this is done by fellow concert goers. So much of the crowd being unhappy and leaving early could be prevented by allowing a usable dancing space where people can see and hear. I see from others reviews that in the past there was standing room in front of the stage and then the lawn. According to the Britt's website the capacity is 2,200 people for the venue, with 949 bench seats. The order is a fairly small standing room only zone in front of the stage, then row after row of bench seats then grass seating. There is some grass seating on the far right off the bench rows that is intended for those seated on the grass. After the SRO, then the bench seating, and grass seating at the very peak top is where non-standing room only viewers are to dance or stand. Update after the end of the show: We ended up staying to the end of the show, which ended far earlier than the Honeydrops had announced/suggested at the beginning "we're going to stay until our original ending time, or even longer if we can". The show ended up being done at 9:10pm, instead of the 10pm everyone was expecting from the show opening. I think it's likely because so many viewers left early throughout the show due to frustration about the seating situation. The extra star is because of the staff members who are friendly and kind. They'll tell you should sit or will block people(I had found a spot next to the rail on the grass blocking no one, but I was told a person had complained about an inconsiderate person in the same spot I was in, earlier in the evening blocking those with space on the grass, so I was reluctantly told I should move from the spot too, or move to the back top of the lawn, but in a friendly way :) 2026 #13
