Love this place! I called ahead to make a reservation for a large group, and the staff was incredibly accommodating and easy to work with. On the day of our event, everyone was just as pleasant and helpful! The grounds are beautiful, with plenty of shady seating and space for kids to run around. Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I highly recommend this spot for group gatherings--it was especially nice that they allowed us to bring our own food for a small "forkage" fee! read more

Larson Family Winery is always welcoming and kind. We became members We somehow always end up in this cozy place around 4pm and are welcomed. read more

It's a great place to taste wine. In the fall, when the leaves turn gold, it's really beautiful and the weather is great along Sonoma Creek.

What a beautiful place to spend a day with family. We picked this place while driving by and were happy to bring kids along. They had a pumpkin patch in the back for kids to enjoy, a green space with games, a sand box and space for adults to enjoy wine while over looking the vineyard. The service was good and our server made good recommendation of wine and food. The best part was their family dog who was so friendly with the kids and was making rounds all around the property. You can bring your dog as well and let them enjoy the space. read more

We recently had the most wonderful visit here at the very family and dog friendly Larson Family Winery. We really enjoyed the outdoor partially covered fireplace heated outdoor dining space with beautiful seating and plenty of air flow despite 3/4 walls covering the area. We also enjoyed the generous and delicious wine flights. A bonus was being greeted at the car by the friendly family winery dog Rocky and the goats and how the menu items were brought to the table with helpful napkins, utensils and plates as unwrapped products (Mt Tam cheese wheel from Cowgirl Creamery and Truffle Brie from French Marin with a full charcuterie sampler, all in their original packaging as though we had just popped into a market) and we even got to enjoy a beautiful history of the winery and family. We are so looking forward to visiting this Covid Era Safety Considerate property again and only regret forgetting to buy bottles after having such a good time but plan to come back again to enjoy an afternoon and also buy some of your delicious wine again soon. read more

Such a cute family owned place and the workers were even cuter. They have pups walking around and it seemed children friendly. We sat outdoors and just enjoyed the smells and happy people chatter. We had cheese, crackers, and wine which were both delightful. Oh we tried some chocolate that is a must. read more

We walked in around 3pm on a Saturday. It was a little bit busy. Only outdoor seating. Our male staff who helped pour our wine flights was nice. The flights were on the pricey side, but the wines weren't very good. Flights were $35 or $45 depending which one you choose. They were either bland, earthy, or tannic. If you like those kind of wines, then this place is for you. The 2 chardonnays and gewürztraminer were passable. Dog friendly. They also charge $40 extra to sit in those cabana, couch, and the moving table thing. No thanks lol. read more

We had fun, it is a quiet place with a lot of seating spaces and a nice place to hang out with the family, kids had fun playing with the games outside, service was nice & the lady was very welcoming with a smile :) , no pressure to order right away like other places, we had 2 bottles of their super sweet white cold wine & we all loved it. We went on Monday & it was quiet, not sure how it looks on a weekend. But worth the visit & prices are so affordable. read more

This is such a great little winery. We've been here a couple of time the past couple of years and always have a good time. The first time we visited we joined their wine club. Yesterday was our second visit and our host was a funny and informative guy. The wines here are well made, whether it's their Sauv Blanc, Chard, or Cab. There's something for everyone here. read more

This place is amazing and family, friendly! Which is exactly what I was looking for after taking our toddlers to train down. We were able to bring our own food and have enough space for the kids to run and hang out. The wine was tasty and very reasonably priced with plenty of shade and good ambience. Off the beaten path and would definitely go back. read more

This is my second time here and it did not disappoint. Everything from the service to the tour. Trevor was awesome and his knowledge of the wine process was very enlightening. We were here with friends and their kids. Very family friendly place. Highly recommend! read more

Great winery! We came here after being disappointed by Anaba, right down the street, and the 4 of us were so much happier with our experience at Larson. We had so much cheese and crackers that we couldn't even eat it all, and the wines were all very good. The service was excellent, and it's pet friendly too. Everything was priced pretty darn cheap too! Would definitely recommend it here. read more

I plan on returning to Larson Family Winery often! Such a relaxed beautiful place to sit and enjoy wine, the view, cheese and bread, and a great playlist in comfortable seating with your favorite humans and fur kids!! They have a wide variety of wine so you can easily find a varietal that you like and the tastings are very reasoanbly priced (most $35). The wine expert was nice and down to earth and felt like we were visiting a friends place. Introducing Larson to friends next week! read more

We choose to visit Larson Family Winery because of their organic farming practices and family friendly tasting room. It ended up being our favorite wine and experience! All of the employees were inviting and knowledgeable. Their wine is complex, yet approachable and very drinkable. They had great pour sizes and recommended some great restaurants! I'll be bragging about them to all my Washington wine friends! read more

This is a fun family atmosphere where you can take kids. There are goats on site, which is super fun for kids. The wine was quite disappointing. read more

We made the mistake of not making reservations at other locations to wine taste, found this place on a random search and we were so thankful! The wine was delicious, the service was outstanding and the ambience was so good! There are games to play and it's so cozy and welcoming! read more

Who charge's site fees? THIS WINERY DOES. This is ludicrous. At $32.55 per person, you typically get 4-6 pours of wine. But here, you get charged cover fees for stepping foot. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. There are over 400 wineries in Napa & Sonoma. Take your business elsewhere. Learn from OUR mistake. At a nice seated winery like Duckhorn - you pay $65 for a seated pour of 5-7 high quality wine along with crackers and cheese. In comparison to Larson, you literally have to holler and FIND or locate your wine server. They don't even educate you about each bottle. I am very upset to be charged $67 per person with POOR SERVICE. We had to ask for multiple bottles of water (2 was served) for 16 people. Be proactive! read more

I was in the area so came here for a walk-in tasting. I enjoyed their wines and the Chardonnay blew me away. I bought a few bottles for Thanksgiving. Service was quite slow, I couldn't even finish my tasting, and the guy was new so it was a bit difficulty to pick wines, etc. Never the less, I saw lots of dogs and kids there, so it seamed an amazing place to bring the family, and I definitely would go again. Plus, I was happy they allowed walk-ins obviously, so appreciated that. Come by if you're in the area. read more

This was a nice place to wine down. Lol. I enjoyed a glass of their wine while my little one played with other kids that were there. This place is great for a low-key getaway. Definitely would come back! read more

Recently came here on a Saturday for a little birthday celebration and this wonders was seriously so relaxing. I came here with my husband and my toddler and infant and it seemed like every table there had a kid in the party. It's always so great whenever I find a kid friendly winery. That feels like a rarity in Napa Valley. I am happy to have found this winery. It is a laid back atmosphere and has great drinks and a variety of snacks. The winery had a small farm of animals which was great for kids to check out as well as space for yard games. I would recommend this winery to anyone in the Sonoma area! read more

A pretty laid back winery that is great for kids as well as dogs. Can't go wrong with a winery that is dog friendly. The wine was pretty tasty, but the service was a bit on the slower side, but this place was actually pretty busy. I was surprised as to how busy it was to be honest. COVID seems to be a thing of the past it seems. Overall, a family friendly spot if you like wine and would suggest it for the more laid back experience. read more

This winery is the hidden gem of Sonoma! I have brought all my family, friends, and coworkers to Larson when they want to do a last minute trip to Sonoma. Brian is the BEST host, he's generous, friendly, and knowledgeable! If you're looking for good casual vibes Larson is the place! The wines are approachable and affordable, if you're a fan of white wines they have SO many options! read more

Rapidly becoming a favorite winery in the region. Aside from the excellent wines, the fabulous outdoor tasting area, knowledgeable and attentive service, and dog/child-friendly environment makes this a treasure. Can't wait to come back! read more

Perfect spot to take kids! This very laidback winery was the perfect place to bring our kids to enjoy wine tasting. They have a few goats and sheep out front, as well as a big tractor that was a big hit with the kids. They have nice picnic table outdoor seating that is shaded. We reserved a table in advance but it wasn't too crowded right at opening on a Saturday. There was also cornhole and plenty of room for kids to run around. They also have a few friendly dogs. The wine was delicious and we went home with a few bottles. They had snacks to buy for us to munch on as well. Could have spent all day here! read more

More than a decade ago, we started to go to Larson Family Winery for Friday afternoon wine tastings. It was always a fun and down to earth experience. Over time we started to see some business changes that were not very friendly and inviting. However, today we decided to give our old fav another try and we're so glad that we did! Once we walked up to the tasting counter we felt at home. We bought some wine and started a pleasant conversation with Hayden. What a great guy. He's so friendly and welcoming. Our local family had a wonderful experience and we plan to start bringing our extended family and friends. It's always so sweet to give our business to a family owned winery! We'll be back soon! read more

We had the BEST experience with Brian. He went above and beyond. He was super knowledgeable during our tasting. Highly recommend!!

Was first introduced to this place for a corporate outing and fell in love with the place because of their 3 cute adorable labs! Having our own lab - we of course had to come back. The following time we visited with some friends visiting from out of town, the experience was just as great. Our lab loved Ollie, Louie and Roscoe! And had a great time frolicking with them in the yard area. The namesake - 3 lab cab is a definite winner and since signing up for their wine club, have found that we really like the regular cab as well! read more

I love this winery. We stopped by the Friday before Christmas; so it was a little quiet, but I loved it. The staff was knowledgeable + had great recommendation based on our preference. Dog friendly is a huge plus, and the winery labs are roaming around. There's a little section on of other animals (before enter the tasting area), which is always great for a dopamine hit. read more

Homey winery with farm animals out in the front! Their wine tastings are pre-set but they have several you can choose from when you book which is nice. Since I only like white wines, I chose to do that wine tasting. Their whites were nice & refreshing! read more

We recently had a tour and tasting with Brian, who was a phenomenal host! Not only was he knowledgeable about the wines, but he was so friendly and down to earth which made us feel very welcomed. The winery is in a beautiful spot off the main highway and is a very relaxing and enjoyable place to taste good wine. We look forward to our next visit. read more

Once again, I give Larson and Bob 5 stars! He is always so funny and very knowledgeable about wine. Bob indeed earns the nickname "wine god." Check out larson if you love a beautiful view, amazing wine, and want to have a great time. read more

I definitely appreciated how unpretentious this winery is compared to others we've tried so far in the area. We came because it was on a list of recommended wineries to visit and I'm glad we came! It was a Sunday and we didn't need reservations for a tasting but it could also be due to the fires/recent air quality. While it was just my husband and I there was a steady stream of families of all sizes. Although we didn't play any, kids definitely seemed to enjoy the games and the two dogs in site. We found out from our host that one of the Labs passed away and that the family is still grieving before they get another. As for the wines themselves, the samples I had were all good. They were running a special so I ended up buying two bottles to have shipped back home and we look forward to enjoying them for the holidays. read more

We have been members at Larson for several years. What a wonderful winery for families! With kids unwelcome at so many other wineries, it's great to walk onto the patio at Larson and see an open turf area for kids -- often with toys -- and a giant open field where kids can run around, explore, or play with toys/balls if you brought your gear (yes I keep a "bag 'o balls" in my car for moments like this!). The wine is delicious and the prices are reasonable, especially with the club member discount. Another big plus is proximity to SF. It's one of the closest wineries to the city, making for a super easy day trip. They allow outside food, so book a table and a tasting and have yourself a wonderful picnic while the kids (if any) run amuck. Pro tip: if you're looking for a place to take your kids for photos with Santa, skip the long wait at the mall. Go to Larson instead! read more

Nice spot! Dog friendly. There's 3 pups that are part of the winery.. sometimes you'll see one of them laying in the bathroom - so sweet!! I walked in and nearly had a heart attack thinking it was a little bear lol The wine is nice. The overall vibe is very casual which is our style. I wish they played music but other than that, it's a decent spot. read more

We have been coming to Larson Winery off and on for several years and have always enjoyed it...until today! Stopped in today during our return from Bodega Bay, I was beyond disappointed by the experience...to the point that this will be my last time coming here. I feel like I just got robbed...like they put their hands in my wallet and just stole cash from me. $35 tasting fee for 3 small pours of decent, but definitely not amazing wine. For my wife and I, with one bottle to go...$113!!! Ambiance: Felt so depressing. The place suffered a fire of the main tasting room a couple of years ago and seems to still be reeling from the effects. This whole vibe was just off from what we remembered in the past. As others have said, it seems like this place is going downhill. Service: Used to be a smaller tasting fee, and you got 3 tokens, but they were always generous with additional pours so you could try all their wines, and then some. Now it's 3 small pours for $35 or $45 depending on the tasting. Supposed to be 5 pours, but because I only like reds...I just got the 3 with no offer to double up on something to make up for the sparkling and white that I didn't want to partake in. All this served by some fella who just seems depressed and tired of life as well. Everything just felt so humdrum. TL;DR - place in decline after fire, depressing, overpriced, crappy ambiance, feels like they are grasping for straws to survive and they are doing it all WRONG!!! Hopefully management sees this and realizes that they are engineering their own demise if they don't get their heads out of the depression clouds. read more

Wonderful spot to bring your family, friends and dog to wine taste. Wine is affordable and the food is yummy! Great beautiful spot

Wonderful experience. Love the stories from your one of your host Bob Frye. Definitely coming back. read more

My family and I use to go to this winery on weekends for a quick getaway from SF Bay. They offer two options of tasting flights with 5 wine options, each; in the past, for each wine they would bring a new wine glass or a tasting flight tray with 5 distinct wine glasses. Last time we visited them, December/2022, they offered us one wine glass to drink all wines of the tasting flight. They did not suggest to "prime" the wine glass, just poured the new wine over the prior one... My assessment now is that they are going downhill in quality and customer service for tasting wine. However, the place is beautiful, the pasture is well maintained, and they are kids & pet friendly, so may worth a visit for those looking for a place to distract kids in an afternoon. read more
