    Julie told us that we needed to leave if guests wanted to sit here! So I guess it doesn't count if you buy 2 glasses of wine.

    Service is terrible. No one was manning the bar area so I went inside to the hotel lobby. I asked if there was anyone in the bar area and was abruptly told to wait and go outside and someone would show up. After a few minutes a young women came out. I placed my order for a Chardonnay and a cuvée. She asked if we were hotel guests and I said no. We're staying at the Blue Dolphin. She said that we can't sit on the chairs looking over the road/beach bc they are reserved for hotel guests. 13 empty chairs.....we sat down any way. The Madeline's Chardonnay could take paint off of a wall. It's horrible. We were here a few years ago and had a lovely time. We will never be back. Your front desk, bar and wine is awful. Ambience is a 10 bc of Mother Nature!

    Best experience of this trip. If you enjoy wine tasting, this is a definite MUST DO. Brooke was delightful and stayed on top of things. The choices of wines (choose which five you wish to taste) were good. Breath-taking view which can't be beat. Complaint: We didn't see any signage for parking so we of course pulled into the parking lot for the hotel. Well, that parking lot is for hotel guests, not for Madeline's customers. You need better signage! The Charcuterie Board was, in my opinion, excellent. Hubby thought it was very good. There is a limited menu of food choices to help absorb the wine. Decent prices on the food; wines are a bit pricey. Overall, an absolute MUST DO stop for wine lovers.

    We had the corner table at the window with a perfect view.

    There are a few places on Moonstone to view and enjoy the ocean. Madeline's is a great addition to the area. The server we had was top notch and a perfect salesman. When people would order a glass of wine, he would suggest ordering the bottle which would be cheaper in the long run. He sold a bottle after a bottle after bottle, including one to us. We were not familiar with the wine we ordered, but it tasted very excellent. We were pleasantly surprised. We ordered no food.

    Two happy patrons.

    We walk the boardwalk on Moonstone Beach in Cambria every time we visit for several weeks. I have noticed the small gatherings at Madeline's on Moonstone but never stopped in to check on the business. Yesterday after a drive up the coast and a visit to the elephant seals, we drove down Moonstone Drive and I parked across from Madeline's on Moonstone. My wife was surprised and asked why I stopped. I said, "Let's go have a glass of wine." It was a welcome surprise. The place is small with a few tables inside and a nice glass enclosed outside area with seats facing the ocean. That's where the bar is located and where you order. It's a nice place to sit, have a drink (wine, beer or soft drinks) and a snack or meal. I ordered the savory tart to go with our Pinot Grigio's. The service was good on a busy Saturday afternoon. The place is very dog friendly. The tart was really a quiche and was delicious. Add in a great view and it's a perfect place to sit, talk, dine and relax.

    Not only did the location did not disappoint, but the service was outstanding. Ivan was a one man show this evening. From his knowledge of tastings to the great thoughtful service and food recommendations, his service went above and beyond. The location is right across from the boardwalk. It's a quaint patio that offered wonderful views. If you're in the area, I highly recommend!!

    Found this cute gem of a place for wine tasting and it did not disappoint. What I ate/drank: - Tasting menu: When I went they were offering bold reds, which are my favorite, so I loved all the wine I tried - Cheese plate: Nothing too fancy, but a nice plate to nibble on while drinking and tasting the wine Pros: - The location was stunning! This tiny patio looked straight out to the ocean and it was pretty perfect - Plenty of parking down on the street. The parking lot was reserved for the hotel guests - "Late" night wine tasting. I think most vineyards/wine tasting places closed around 5, but this place was specifically open later, which is perfect. I was able to enjoy the glorious ocean sunset while drinking wine - There was only 1 server. He was very friendly and professional. Knowledgeable about the wine. He knew when to engage the patrons into conversation and when to step back. - Patio was dog friendly - If I was a local, I think this would be a great date spot Cons: - Patio seating, so you're subject to the weather. While I felt like the weather was pretty perfect, it did get chillier once the sun set - Patio is rather small. Not the place to bring ten of your friends Would I come again? If I was in the area, yes!

    The wine and the view were amazing. Parking is on the street and some even in the hotels lot.

    This was my favorite winery in Moonstone! The view is incredible and Oscar the wine steward was magical! He was very knowledgeable, made us feel right at home and taught us so much about the wine that we sipped very carefully and enjoyed every drop. I bought the Petite Sirah to go and had a glass there. To continue to indulge in the wine, the beautiful sight of the ocean and the cool breeze.

    Stopped off here to meet some girlfriends as they were in town the same time we were here. And never knew they had a tasting room in the area even though we've stayed numerous of time along the boardwalk. Mainly if we were doing any tasting, it would just be in Paso Robles wine country. It's a small tasting area, on the patio area overlooking the beach. Nice view is always a plus. They offer a few wine in the tasting which mainly are form the area which is nice. Food is available to accompany the tasting. Dog friendly which is great as well. Compared to the winery tasting room, felt like we got more knowledge there versus her. Overall, it was nice if your in the area.

    Ocean view.

    Madeline's on Moonstone is a wine tasting bar overlooking the ocean. They are not part of the hotel but only rent space. They are part of Madeline's restaurant in downtown Cambria. Great way to have a glass of wine while looking at the ocean. They have lite fare snacks but not full meals. The chips are addicting. Yum! Service is friendly, view is great. Only downside are the chairs that are hard and have no backing. I have plenty of padding but my butt hurt. My husband has a bad back so seating was not comfortable for either him or me. You can park across the street and hotel.

He was really great & friendly. He also was very knowledgeable about Paso Robles and answered every question that we had. There were 10 of us and we can be a little too much, but Chris was super patient with us. He went out of his way to go back to the last winery when one of the girls left her phone at there. Really appreciate him going the extra mile. The bride to be was also very happy with how everything turned out! For anyone looking to do a wine tour in Paso Robles, we highly recommend this place. If you could, also recommend Chris! He was amazing & more! Chris - thank you so much for putting up with us! We really appreciate your service today!

He worked with all my questions and gave a ton of recommendations based off what I was looking for. He gave great options for food and made all the reservations needed for the day. We were lucky enough to have Jed as our guide for the day. Pick up was on time and we went rolling on. He got us checked into the wineries and made sure we were settled and checked back to make sure we were on schedule. He was easy going even when we decided to cut the tour one winery short and grab coffee instead. He even called to cancel the reservation- super planned and thoughtful Would definitely book with Jed again if in the area.
