Service was pretty but but what was most upsetting was the bullying that went on after I posted a review by staff. read more

Sign posted that kids can't be in the store front after 5PM. Show up at 4:30 with my 2 kids. Place is almost completely empty. They turn me away saying there is no where for me to sit even though all the tables are empty. Could have had plenty of time for a glass of wine and charcuterie. This is the second time they have turned me away like this. I got frustrated and made a comment to the staff that it's not a great business model and left. A man from the business follows me down the road shouting "It is a great business model if you don't want to be around kids" in front of my kids. Can honestly say I am never going back and never recommending this place. I am a huge wine enthusiast, a business owner myself with 2 kids. Very disappointing read more

Food was excellent. Such a great find stopping on our way to Cape May. Pumpkin hummus was delicious. So many options to choose from. read more

The Vineyard - a plate of food and a spoon - Wine Bars Near Me - Havre de Grace, Maryland

My husband I celebrated our 24y anniversary here. Cute little spot. Food was great server was nice and attentive. Can't wait to go back

So sad. This wine bar has a good location in the very nice little town of Havre de Grace, Maryland. The food is good, and everything else I good OTHER THAN THE ABSOLUTELY INTOLERABLE OWNER! He not only has the most sour attitude I have ever encountered but seems to think the customer is there to serve him rather than the other way around. Been going there for several years but will NEVER pass their doorway again. Not worth the aggravation of this foul little man. read more

Great place- excellent service! They have a great selection of wines. The food is soooo good. read more

We stopped in for a late lunch, a bit of an odd time between 2:30-3 so it was not busy. The atmosphere is very cute, the service was great and the menu offered a great selection without an overwhelming number of options. My husband had the flatbread while I had the a salad. The wine recommendations made by the server to pair with each were fantastic. Highly recommend if you are in the area! read more

Always a treat. A Saturday afternoon trip to Havre de Grace for a soul soothing water fix isn't complete without a glass of wine (or two) at the Vineyard. Their rotating menu is always creative and the selections are yummy. My favorite is their beet salads and flatbreads, charcuterie options are also solid. Join the 6 for $60 wine club, there's a year + wait to get on it for a reason. Ask the bartender for help with the extensive by the glass wine list, they're typically spot on if you can give them a basic idea of your taste profile. It's a quiet cool and welcome stop on your travels, enjoy! read more

The Vineyard - Baked Brie - Wine Bars Near Me - Havre de Grace, Maryland

See all

The Vineyard may be a wine bar, but the kitchen stands on its own right. We visited this past Sunday for lunch, on one of the coldest weather days of the year, starting with some satisfying warm brie in a flaky pastry and a berry yogurt sauce and balsamic reduction drizzle. I had a delicious turkey, arugula, and cranberry sandwich on naan. The rest in my party had a blackened chicken sandwich and pulled pork flatbread. The restaurant features what they call "Tapas" style, but this refers to the small plate sizes, not Spanish tapas cuisine. This is not your endless-breadstick-heavily-sauced-multi-serving-portion chain style food, which is a good thing in my book (though I've noticed some other reviewers complain about this!?) So, dessert is in order, and it doesn't disappoint. A chocolate peanut butter cake and crème brulée cheesecake fit the bill. Many of their wines are available in tasting sizes. We had great service from Angie, and will be back next time we return to Havre de Grace. read more

Small, cozy spot in historic Havre de Grace, just two blocks from the water. My friend and I shared tomato brushetta for an appetizer; there were four round baguette slices topped with brushetta. Very tasty appetizer. For dinner, I opted for Tapenade Flatbread. Came with 4 rectangular pieces of bread. The toppings were ok, but a little bland. read more

Since our Napa Valley days, we have frequented many wine bars and vineyards. Our evening here was hands-down one of the worst experiences we've had in the entire country. The wine was fine, but the cheese plate, atmosphere and service was sub par. Classy? I think not... read more

WOW!!!! The food is great, the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable, we had a great time dining amongst wine bottles. The atmosphere although sophisticated it also felt very rustic. The food, or tapas, is very fresh, delicious, and elegant. I ordered one of the flatbreads, fig, and prosciutto, it was OUT of this World! I also had the Crapese salad, the veggies were fresh and delicious. Overall this restaurant is great! Highly recommended. read more

I love this place. Owner Joe is so knowledgeable and helpful. The food is inventive and delicious. The room is warm and inviting. You can't go wrong here. I come here everything I'm in Maryland. read more

Amazing wine selection, food, owners, and servers! Highly recommend if you need a reason to visit Havre de Grace!

This is just a great place to go to. Great food, friendly servers, intimate setting, Our favorite HDG restaurant

Five stars for knowledge of wine and knowing what the guest will like after a few tastings! We had a great time here trying a variety of wines and Champagn, with one of the owners teaching us a little along the way - she is clearly very knowledgeable. read more

If you like food, go here. If you like wine, go here. If you like REALLY good of both, GO HERE. Just a gem of a place--small and intimate. Has a "wine bar" side for the social people and the lounge dining side for the introverts and 40-somethings on a date (without the kids). Prices match the quality of the food, which is a slight drawback, but it's worth it! Definitely a best-of-the-area spot. read more

Portion sizes were incredibly small and we left the place still hungry... I had let them know in advance that it was our engagement night and all we received was "oh congratulations by the way." The wine was good and that was about it.. Oh and it took an hour to serve us our main course and they weren't even busy...85 bucks down the drain for an appetizer of an "entre". Over priced as hell and will not be back. read more

Predatory pricing and Very poor attitude of management. When I questioned an item on the bill the manager was externally rude and told the waitress to get us out the restaurant. When leaving the chef who is also co owner came out and told us to F*** off . Customer service is a foreign concept to them. Dine at your peril. read more

Amazing cooked to order fresh food with a rotating seasonal menu. It's a bit pricey, but it's worth it compared to spending almost equal the amount at a sub par restaurant on an entrees and drinks. Very romantic and read more

A very quaint and romantic dining experience nestled in the heart of small-town America, right here in Harford County. A bit pricey but well worth the orgasmic rapture your taste buds will experience here. Well over a 100 wine choices to pick from by either half-glass, glass, or bottle. Been here twice, both times the food was very good and service was impeccable. The prosciutto Flatbread is killer!! The tuna tartar and spicey shrimp skewers are delicious. On French night we loved the Gruyere souffle and I wanted to lick out the ramekin. This is the perfect special occasion experience you are looking share with that special someone. read more

I WAS SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS RESTAURANT. SO VERY DISAPPOINTED. I UNDERSTAND THEY CANNOT USE STEMWARE OUTSIDE HOWEVER IT ISN'T POSSIBLE THEY COULD FIND A CHEAPER PLASTIC CUP. Yes you know the cups you use at a tailgate. And the little packs of cutlery like KFC, a napkin, knife and fork. Our FIRST COURSE, WE HAD THE CHARCUTERIE. It WAS THE BEST PART OF THE MEAL. And, THATS NOT SAYING MUCH. Manchego, CHEDDAR AND BLUE YOU CAN BUY AT THE GROCERY STORE. The chorizo was inedible. Can you imagine we were given plastic cutlery and a plastic plate. Hmmmm If my dinner comes with a real plate and cutlery why not my appetizer. OUR MAIN COURSES COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE DISAPPOINTING. But they came on real plates and we were given real cutlery. THE TILAPIA STUFFED WITH CRAB IMPERIAL; THE FISH WAS FLAVORLESS AND SOGGY. The crab imperial was nothing to get excited about. It lacked the rich creamy essence of an imperial sauce as well as the Golden brown top. It came on white rice. Just plain old white rice and over cooked Brussels sprouts, 2 Brussels sprouts. But truly the most shocking was the mushroom tart. It is not a tart. It is store bought puff pastry with gruyere and ricotta. The Caramelized onions were missing. Almost as an after thought come mushrooms drizzled with fig preserve. It should be taken off the menu. As a chef I would be embarrassed to serve it. Ok now lets talk wine. It's a wine bar? Where is the person recommending wine pairings, there is nothing about this restaurant that would lend its self to a wine bar. Sorry but that's how I see it. No reason to return. read more

Although I have eaten at the Vineyard several times, never a disappointment, yesterday evening I attended the wine basics course taught by Joe. I have been a wine consumer for over 25-years and was proud of my level of education and knowledge of wine. I basically took this class as something my girlfriend and I could do that was of interest to both of us. Boy was I surprised by what I did not know, what I did know that was wrong, and how much there was to know. Basically Joe teaches the correct way to identify a good wine from the label. Doesn't sound like a lot but there is much to know about labeling of good wines vs. bad or average wine. Joe teaches about the types of wine, types of grape, areas of production and much more. The class was $25 (at this time) but it was worth a heck of a lot more when you consider avoiding wines that are not worth the price and how much you learn, plus samples. I highly recommend this course and the Vineyard to all who read this review. The food is delicious and the appetizers are a really good way to have a light meal with a tasty beverage for a snack. Truly I have never had a bad experience at the Vineyard and will continue to patronize this great little restaurant for as long as I live in Havre de Grace. read more

My boyfriend and I met some friends here on Friday night in the quaint little town of Havre de Grace. The Vineyard is located on a street with a bunch of sleepy old shops and restaurants. Let me start by saying that our dinner at The Vineyard was a surprisingly high end experience. I split a bottle of Pinot Noir with one of our friends, his girlfriend got a glass of Prosecco, and my boyfriend ordered a Pinot Grigio. We were all very happy with our drink choices, and the wine selection was impressive. I think we were all silently kicking ourselves for not writing down what wines we ordered to purchase at the wine shop after dinner. For appetizers, we started with two flatbreads--the Prosciutto, which was accompanied by arugula and a sweetened balsamic, and also the Chorizo flatbread, which had a few chunks of mushroom on top. Both were fantastic--we devoured them. We then noshed on a charcuterie plate and Baked Brie. Wrapped in a puffed pastry and baked to creamy perfection, the Baked Brie was the highlight of my meal--I nearly fought my dining companions for the last bite. We got four entrees and split them all around--Asiago Chicken, Shrimp Skewers, Salmon Wellington,and the Pork Roulade. All of them were impeccable, but I think the Pork Roulade was superior--the amalgamation of flavors created a sort of explosion in my mouth for lack of a less cliche analogy. The combination of brie, apple, jam, baby spinach, and pork was unbeatable. Each couple finished their meal with the Flourless Chocolate Torte--very small, but still tasty. Just enough to punctuate the meal with something sweet and decadent. It is important to note that at The Vineyard, you do NOT receive large portions. Our waiter, who was attentive and easygoing, described the typical Vineyard plate size as a little larger than tapas. Personally, I prefer restaurants that offer small plate options because I like to sample a bunch of different things, so if you're like me, you would love The Vineyard. I definitely plan on making another trip up North to revisit The Vineyard. read more

The Vineyard - charcuterie and baked brie - Wine Bars Near Me - Havre de Grace, Maryland

I went yesterday. I've already voiced complaints to owner but feel it's necessary that future customers know to check the bill for unnecessary charges due to predatory business practices. Owner claimed it was a mistake but when I was talking to other people about my experience they had the same experience and no longer go for that reason (so it's clearly a common occurrence). read more

Been awhile since we've eaten here, but since they've changed the menu we decided to try it again and we're very glad we did. We started with the charcuterie and for us two it was ample. Cheeses, very good and the capacola was nice. Only complaint is there wasn't enough of the very good bread. Then we had the Sakanaki which was a very good melted cheese dish with plenty of the tasty bread! And the meatball dish which was baked in a nice flaky pastry. For dessert we split the coconut snowball cake which was listed as a half dessert but was a good size. Bravo...very good meal. read more

First visit this past weekend. Vey happy with entire experience. Portions are small but that is a positive for me. We were able to sample more of menu and were not disappointed by anything that included salad, appetizer and entree. Service was first rate with server providing details of menu and portion size. Very busy but never felt rushed. Highly recommend. read more

Stopped in here for lunch and was surprised that it was nearly empty. The atmosphere seemed charming but because it was empty it's hard to really tell. I had an appetizer and salad for lunch, both of which were very good. The menu and wine selections are limited due to COVID. Would recommend to give it a try. read more

Such a nice place! I loved the environment, it was nicer but I still felt very casual going in there which was nice. The amount of wines they have available is amazing so I definitely want to try a different one every time. I ordered a dry riesling, the shrimp and grits (amazing) and then for dessert we each got a Cream Brulé cheesecake which was also amazing! I definitely will be back to try new things! read more

Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon around 2 p to sample some wine and for a few appetizers with 3 friends, one who has been here many times. Two friends ordered red wines and one, a white. I'm not a wine drinker so I have no idea what they ordered but the two who ordered the reds were very happy and the white wine drinker commented that hers was more dry than she preferred. Our two appetizer selections were: harvest flatbread and brussel sprouts. The flatbread contained ricotta cheese and one in our party despises ricotta so we ordered it without not realizing it was a butternut squash and ricotta purée; nonetheless, the flatbread was still amazing. Great combination of flavors from the mushrooms, caramelized onions and gruyere cheese. The brussel sprouts were very tasty but chopped in pieces so it was hard to eat with the breads slices. Our waiter was knowledgeable, very pleasant and attentive. About $48, great stop! read more

Wow had a really nice time at this place when visiting for the day. The wine list and affordability is amazing. I am not a huge wine connoisseur but they had some really complex wines and different wines i have never heard of. They had a nice list and what I really loved was that you can get 3 oz tastes of many of them. I am a light weight and 2 glasses of wine puts me to bed, so getting to try a few was great. They have the grape, the region and the name but they don't have a description which i would love, i hate to bother the waitress each time and like to read about each one. The staff were very friendly and helpful with any questions however. The food menu was great and we wanted to try everything. We had 2 cheeses we had never heard of before - the momte and teit ... something which were both quite nice. Momte i liked more a bit like a swiss cheese and lighter. the other one is shaved cheese and has a deeper taste that is a bit sharper. With the 2 cheeses we also got the salami. All served on a cheese board with walnuts and fig jam. the bread served was all crispy - i would prefer a bit softer bread, maybe a few crispy pieces and a few softer pieces but that's really splitting hairs. Crab ravioli was excellent and would recommend. Watermelon tower was very nice and drizzled with honey which i love. We got the baked brie in a pastry served with some balsamic vinegar which was delicious. The chicken saltimboco entree was expensive for a smaller than expected plate and wasn't my favorite but still was good. For dessert we opted for 2 dessert drinks - the Port from Portugal which was really delicious and then a white from Madeira that was coffee/caramel/toffee which was good but not for me and the BF loved it. Our bill was definitely over 100 but we were stuffed and had a great time. They have an outdoor garden in the back which we enjoyed sitting in and there is even a fan out there. However to use the restrooms, you have to go around in through the main entrance. Not a huge deal but just unusual and caught me by surprise. Would recommend and would return read more

A recent trip to this restaurant proved to be perfectly mediocre. Service was average, though we found we needed to ask periodically for water refills. The food, while tasty, was completely underwhelming. We were here for lunch and we all found our selections lacking and the portion sizes too small. While the flavor of the sandwiches was tasty, the chips selected to accompany some sandwiches left us wondering why a better side choice was not offered. The salads were lacking. The charcuterie board itself was much too large given the sparse offerings. Really, Vineyard, use a smaller board and your selections will appear more abundant. As served, our board was quite sad. The flatbread was attractively plated and tasted fresh - probably the best of the choices we made. We don't find ourselves in the area often, and there are too many restaurants to try, so I doubt we will return. And Vineyard -- is it too difficult to put your wine list online? read more

A new eatery for my top 5 of all time. Great selection of wines served by foodies who know a lot about wine and can lead you to what is best tasting and value.

Food preparation and presentation is excellent in all aspects. read more

We have been going to The Vineyard for over 8 years now and it has always been exceptional. Recently we had a milestone birthday party for my wife and although we know the food and wine to always be great - this time was phenomenal. The owners and staff were fantastic. They worked with us to plan the menu and Chef Ron was very flexible to accommodate my wife and guests' dietary restrictions and still make the food an experience. In addition, the execution was flawless. Timing for appetizers, wine and main course were spot on. I cannot recommend this place high enough. 6 out of 5 stars read more

This is a great place for a small plate. We had the soup special, potato and cheddar with bacon and chive. For lunch we had the Cubano sandwich and sweet potato, mushroom, sautéed onion flatbread. I tried the sweet Italian red wine 606. We like it so much we are going to take two bottles home from the bottle shop next door each take home bottle is $10 less. Next time I'm going to try the 606 ice cream. read more
