Adorable spot that is slightly hard to find, keep an eye on the signs on the sidewalk! Great staff, very knowledgeable and helpful. The free samples are plentiful and generous. The bottle prices are also very fair! Delicious mead in an area where mead is hard to come by- give it a try! read more

If you're strolling through downtown Jim Thorpe and looking for something a little different, make sure you stop by Stonekeep Meadery & Wine Cellars. Tucked away on Broadway, this cozy little tasting room is a hidden gem that's well worth seeking out. The atmosphere has a fun medieval feel that perfectly matches the history behind mead, one of the world's oldest alcoholic beverages. Whether you're already a mead fan or trying it for the first time, the staff makes the experience enjoyable and educational. They happily explain the different styles, from traditional honey meads to fruit-infused varieties, and offer complimentary tastings so you can discover what suits your palate best. Their meads are crafted with Pennsylvania honey and local ingredients, making each pour feel like a true taste of the region. I also appreciated that they offer wines in addition to their meads, so there's something for everyone. There was a great selection ranging from dry to sweet, making it easy to find a favorite. I ended up leaving with a bottle to enjoy at home because the tasting made it impossible not to! The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable without ever making you feel rushed. They took the time to answer questions and made the tasting feel personal rather than just another stop along Broadway. Stonekeep is one of those unique places that adds to the charm of Jim Thorpe. Whether you're spending the day shopping, exploring the historic town, or just looking for a relaxing tasting experience, this is definitely a stop I'd recommend. I'll absolutely be back on my next visit! read more

See all

First time in the meadery and Tiffany was a delight, she not only was full of information on all of the offering, she also gave good suggestions on how to pair the meads and wine. She gave us an extra sample of something we didn't pick and we ended up loving it and bought a bottle. She truly was a pleasure! A sharp contrast to the shop across the street. Welcoming and free samples!! read more

Amazing service, gave us samples of some amazing wine, really cool setting and historical photos inside. Great stop while in the area

Interesting place in a house with each door leading to a different kind of shop. The ladies there are well versed in their meads & are very nice. I only tries rhe lemon verbena mead but was tasty & semi sweet, they also have wine and the tastings are free. read more

Discovered this place while strolling along Broadway (a main drag in the heart of Jim Thorpe). Has a neat feel because the building is divided into several smaller shops, each having a sort of artisanal, Renn Faire kind of vibe. The staff was friendly and allowed us to sample a few offerings, and we enjoyed the mead and wine enough to pick up a few bottles to take with us. I would say the choices lean more toward to something you would enjoy sitting in front of a fireplace during the colder months, and in the backyard during the warmer months. In other words, drinks that aren't necessarily mind blowing but that you'd enjoy socially with friends. read more

Stonekeep offered 4 free tastings during the Fall Harvest Festival in Jim Thorpe. Although the place is really small and there isn't any seating, we still decided to do the tasting! We were accidentally poured the wrong mead so we got to try 5. Lucky us! There was 3 we really liked and ended up purchasing 2 bottles of each. They packaged it up nicely and even held the items (without purchasing ahead of time) until we were ready to leave the festival so we didn't have to walk to our car or walk around with the box. Good customer service and good mead! read more

Yes!!!! Visit this place. Love the small feel. Great mead. Great little free tastings. Love that's it's locally made and I can confirm it is because I know the guy that makes it. He knows his stuff so definitely check this place out. Friendly people too. Recommended. read more

As far as tasting rooms go, this is definitely not what I was expecting-- very small, but was told that this is not their main location. Other than that, the mead was pretty good! I was also surprised by their selection of wines. Bought a few bottles to take back home:) read more

The woman who rang me up was really nice, but the woman who conducted the tasting seemed like she was mad at me the whole time. I bought a bottle of mead because I liked it, but I wouldn't say my visit was a warm, friendly experience. More like strangely off-putting, unfortunately. read more

We visit family that lives outside of JT and always make sure to stop by Stonekeep to do a taste of new wines and pick up a few bottles for family and friends. Very friendly & cozy atmosphere. read more

My best friend and I were walking around Jim Thorpe and discovered Stonekeep winery. When we walked into the shop, it felt like you were transported back in time. The ambience was medieval themed and even the one woman selling the wine/mead was dressed in Renaissance clothing! When you arrive, you can choose five free wine/mead samples. I love mead, so of course I tried all of their mead flavors. They had traditional mead, strawberry mead and a few other types. The woman who helped us pick our samplings was very helpful and you could tell she really wanted for people to enjoy their tasting experience. Our host even told us that they use their own recipe that dates back to the 1300's. We ended up going home with the traditional honey mead and it is delicious! I am a local and I will definitely be going back again to stock up on mead and wine. read more

Stonekeep was amazing to work with for our wine tour to raise money for the METAvivor Group (breast cancer). They have an excellent selection of wines and meads. They were so knowledgeable in explaining the difference between the two. They were able to accommodate our large group. It's such a cool/rustic looking cellar and the patio outside was so cozy and relaxing to have a glass and just enjoy each others company. read more

Very nice. Free tasting up to 5 choices. Store is decorated nice and staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Their Meade is popular and limited so they may not have what you are looking for so if you are stopping by to stock up you should call or check the website to see whats in stock. They offer a case discount if they do have what you are looking for. read more

Amazing!!! The staff is more then awesome, the wine is the best in the area. My boyfriend and I went in just to try a few different wines thinking we would find attest one we would like, well we came home with 6 bottles. We will be going back! read more

This place was great, the owner was knowledgable and spunky. Ended up buying 3 bottles to take home. A great place to find a new favorite wine/mead. Highly recommended. read more

Wine is subjective, Mead is an acquired taste. Fun is fun regardless. These folks make the tasting fun. We stopped in here after a 25 mile bike ride on the trail and could not have been happier with the reception and atmosphere. The mead was great just not our thing. Whites and reds were good. Fun blends. read more

Randomly dropped in here while visiting Jim Thorpe. Very friendly staff member spoke with us about the meads and wines. The grapes are grown out in Reading, PA; and considering that PA is not known for its outstanding wines lol, these were surprisingly pretty decent. The staff member told us they just opened a tasting room in Reading, which is closer to my hometown, so I will definitely encourage a family visit there at some point. read more

On our first visit to JT, and in a wonderful mood, my party and I checked out the Meadery. I love Mead and I was excited to introduce it to my family. The bartender was SOOO rude from the get-go. Short in explaining the paper tasting system, condescending when we asked for more forms (only 2 were left out), and finally jaw-dropping when someone in my party asked for her recommendations and she said "why don't you read the menu I painstakingly wrote for you, with descriptions". We all looked at each other and said, "no...let's go". The instant consensus was WHY would we ever spend our time and money being treated that way. The experience stands out in my 37 years on this planet as one of the most confusing; why on earth would someone treat respectful and pleasant customers this way from the start?! It wasn't busy inside! What kinda day did she have that the she needed to take it out on us? Crazy. Such a blemish on our first visit to a charming town. read more

My sister and I went here while we were staying at Jim Thorpe. The place was pretty cozy and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable in their wines. I have never had mead wine before but Stonekeep definitely had me hooked on it! My favorite was the blueberry and honey flavor. I bought 2 bottle of it and I will definitely buy more! Wish I could buy them in NJ! read more

My husband and I visited the Stonekeep tasting room in Jim Thorpe. Heather was incredibly knowledgeable and took her time to thoroughly explain to us the various styles of the meads. She was very friendly & attentive which of course made us feel welcomed. Not to mention, every mead variation we tried was delicious. We ended up purchasing the Red Currant and can't wait to break it open. I would absolutely recommend this location & meadery. read more

Visited this location for the first time and, I must say, I'm very impressed! Atmosphere and staff were excellent. Staff really knew their stuff and we're happy to talk about their favorites. Bought my first bottle and am looking forward to visiting again for more next time I'm in the area! read more
