There's a food truck and we were able to order food, although there was a little confusion about the QR codes. But that could be just on our part. I purchased a flight and was able to taste six different wines and ended up buying a lovely Pinot Noir to take home. I definitely will be going back again and would love to sit outside this time. They had table tables and chairs set up in different groupings around outside and I saw young families and other couples that were there. This was on a Saturday. They also had board games on the table so if you wanna go over and spend time with your friends playing games that would be a fun thing to do. So glad I got to experience this place!

They recently accommodated an unusual request from me. I was able to pick up a couple bottles on a day they're normally closed.

We've attended a variety of events here: holiday markets, author meet and greets, halloween candy pairings, club parties, and tastings. The owners are constantly experimenting with different foods to go with each year's vintage. This is a true working winery - the main space is sometimes full of grapes being processed, so seating is sometimes in a side room, and sometimes bellying up to the counter in the main room. Hip Chicks is an urban wine institution, and Portland is the better for it.

We arrived in the rain, it is November in Portland. So the first thing I noticed while waiting In the line outside in the rain, was everyone was super nice and asked if I had attended before. When I said no, folks said I would not be disappointed. Additionally, there was a nice older gentlemen who independently (on Halloween) was walking down the line and offering candy. Thanks for the mini snickers bite! We had a group of 7 of us last evening as we discussed "would this be worth it" as we slowly inched our way to the cashier to place our order. It is important to note, however, that while waiting in line the butcher shop walked the line (often starting at the end which was super considerate) offering slices of grilled sausages and probably some of the best toasted bread I have had. We made it - and placed our order for two burgers and potato salad. While waiting we checked out the shop - and while small, it is cozy and I can see why their classes and dinners draw in folks. They also had wine, beer and other items for sale to drink as well as a lovely self of bottles of wine. The BURGER!!! OMG - Heck yes!!!! Did I mention at the beginning I will be waiting in line on the last Friday of every month. I believe it was a brioche roll, garlic aoli, pickles and chopped onion with the best fresh, grilled on a fire hamburger patty I have had. Oh - and I am a total food snob. I can say this - those were big burgers and two of the guys in our group went back and ordered a second burger to eat. My husband also then raided their freezer for meats for us to bring home and prep ourselves. One of those was a beautiful Tomahawk and I cannot wait to cook it to perfection. I promise I will "not F it up." While I don't want the lines to get longer, I cannot deny my role as a Yelp Elite is to proactively share great experiences for others. So I kindly do this although this is one that I would prefer to keep a secret. Next up - I am signing up for classes!!! It's been a while since my time in CA where I learned to butcher a pig and make sausage. I saw that Proletariat Butchery offer bacon making classes. SCORE!!!

My son & I took the 'Dumplings of the World' class with Zach last weekend and had a great time. The…read moreclass was well planned, there was not a moment wasted, while also never feeling rushed. The space itself is spacious & tidy, broken up into a workspace, eating space and even a room where I imagine a smaller class or party space may be able to be set up. We had a full class, and stations were prepared (ingredients measured, tools set, etc) upon entering. We were guided through preparing the jiaozi (Chinese dumpling) wrapper dough, filling (while dough rested), then filling & wrapping. After being showing the filling & wrapping, we were returned back to our stations, where Zach rounded with the pairs for 1:2 time with the trickiest parts of the process: the folding! Quantity wise, we made more than enough, and the class was WELL worth the price in value, in my opinion: we had enough for the group to be well fed at the end of the class, and we also brought home another 8 to steam at home, which made for a good sized side for another meal. We honestly could have even made another several too, but it does get tiring on newbie hands after a while at it, not to mention wanting to chow down once you start smelling them steaming!! All in all, I'm glad I stumbled upon this class, and I'm sure my son & I will be visiting Cookshop again for other sessions. As an added bonus, we received the recipes to make jiaozi at home, so this also isn't a one & done experience like some new class/hobbies sometimes tend to be!

It was way harder than I thought but very fun to attempt. She showed us how to work with sushi ingredients, proper knife techniques, ensured we maintained a clean cutting board and how to roll properly. By the end of the 2 hour course, we had a huge plateful of 4 sushi rolls including veggies, shrimp, crab dip, salmon and tuna. I could only eat about a third of it, around 24 pieces. It looks like all types of classes are conducted here for kids as well as adults. Fun space for team bonding events. I would enjoy another round of classes, maybe something more in my wheel house.
