My Mr and I was looking for a vineyard near our cabin and stumbled on this place via Yelp. The…read morereviews were so good that we had to check them out. We got there a little after 1:00 pm and they were super busy. The inside was small but there were plenty of seating outside. We didn't mind going out there despite the 30 degree weather. The view of the farm and vineyard was gorgeous to look at even with the snow. Before we went in, we greeted the sheep's in the front entrance. You can't miss the small barn. We stood in line and while we were waiting, we filled out the sheets and picked our 4 tastings. They range from dry, semi sweet and sweet. They also serve slushies and mulled wine. We ordered: Flight of 4 $10.00: -Dry Red- 2022 Free Run Norton -Dry Red- 2023 Marquette -2 Dry White-2023 Seyval Blanc -Dry Red-2022 Norton -Dry Red-Oaked Norton -Dry Red-2023 Alexander -Semi Dry Rose- 2023 Grower's Blush Appetizer: -Classic Charcuterie for two For food, they do have paninis and charcuterie trays. If you order, they give you a buzzer. When it goes off, you pick up your meal outside/food truck. Our favorites were the Alexander red and Seyval Blanc. So good that were purchased bottles to take home and had two glasses of Alexander after we finished our flight. I talked to the owners and they are very friendly and take pride in their wines & their farm. I highly recommend you pay them a visit. We had such a great experience and will definitely come back when in the hocking hills area. Make sure to check their hours because they are only open certain times and days of the week.

My son graduated from Ohio University and we made a reservation for a party of 12. Despite that reservation, there was a considerable wait (about an hour) but that's not why I'm writing this review. We traveled from Pittsburgh to celebrate my son, so I brought a specially made cake from a local bakery that he loves. I asked the manager if we could serve that cake after the meal and not only did he decline, he was very rude. Even after I reminded him that we were on the verge of spending close to $1000 in his restaurant he would make no exception. I didn't make a fuss but after our meal when the waitress asked if we wanted dessert, we had a good laugh and said uhhhh no thank you. I hope the potential handful of desserts you thought we might be forced to buy was worth this one star review.

I'll never be mistaken for a wine connoisseur and those who are will surely turn up their noses, but we found the bottle of Cab Sauv Reserve up to the moment. We went with "one each" of the three specials on a early spring Friday night: Shrimp Cakes, Caprese Salad, and Roasted Brussels Sprouts. The shrimp cakes were sneaky good with the small things making the difference - the lettuce and spring onions they lay upon were fresh and crisp, the spicy aioli was smooth and not overpowering. The caprese worked for the time of year. Too early for truly great tomatoes but the ample basil drizzle and good fresh mozzarella can take you a long way. And wow what a generous portion of brussels sprouts and not burned or crispy as these often become. The walnuts definitely worked with the sweet bacon, something my dining companion said would not always be the case for her. And while one can assume prices are lower here in rural southeastern Ohio, they truly were at $14, $9, and $12 respectively. The upper deck had diners taking in the view, but it was by no means crowded. The lower areas, some covered, some uncovered had plenty of folks too. Those areas are good for parties (we did a big birthday for my mother there) and for cooler temps in the summer when the high deck attached to the kitchen and indoor dining area gets pretty toasty even with the umbrellas and sun shades.

From the patio, you can sip wine while watching the sun clock out for the day in spectacular fashion--trees below, golden sky above, and you in the middle wondering why you don't live here. The wines range from dry to semi-sweet, so whether you like your vino crisp and serious or a little flirty and fun, you'll find a favorite. The staff know their stuff but never make you feel like you need a sommelier certificate to hang with them. We ordered a charcuterie board that was basically a work of art--cheeses, meats, and fruit all perfectly Instagrammable. The pizza looked so good that we almost committed to a second dinner. Everything about this place says, "Stay awhile." It's cozy, relaxed, and just fancy enough to make you feel sophisticated without needing to remember which fork to use. Between the friendly vibes, delicious food, and sunset views straight out of a postcard, this winery delivers the perfect mix of class and comfort--with just enough wine to make you think you've discovered paradise.

What is unique about this place the wines aren't considered meads. Meads are made from honey, but they offer wine infused by honey. In addition, meads are sweet, these were not sweet, they were actually dry wines infused with honey. So much different. They had small foods available. Good services and nice people.

I have brought several of my grape wine loving friends to Dutch Creek and they all leave pleasantly surprised with purchased bottles in hand. Love this winery's location too. Enough away from the hustling college town to provide a calm and pleasant experience, yet very convenient to the local restaurants to make for a lovely first course to your evening's meal. I can't say enough good things about this unique winery. Their bee to bottle process rivals any other wineries I've visited, which includes those of Germany and Italy that we have enjoyed. Yelp needs to create a special category just for Dutch Creek Winery.

We didn't eat food…read more We went for wine tasting. I walked up to the hostess and said "HI, we've not be here before. Is there a certain area for just drinking wine?" Hostess, mind you, no hi, "Do you know if you're buying bottles?" Me: "No, we've not tried it. I guess probably not at this point." Hostess: "Everything is table service." I said okay and went and told my family in the car. She walked us back to a table. No conversation was had. It is a very pretty area, BTW. It was pretty quiet. It was Friday at 4 so not dinner time yet. We sat for 15 minutes, watching waitress socialize, play with dogs, etc. My husband stood up to find out about a server, and our waitress came. I dont know what her name was, but she said "Sorry no one told me you were here, hope you haven't been waiting long." She served us our flight very quickly. She came to check on us once and then disappeared. After waiting longer to try to pay, we went inside to pay. We were going to buy a bottle of the Chardonnay, but everything took forever, we gave up.

I didn't count but they must have about 40 different varieties of wine. We did a flight of six and they were all very good. We chose two bottles to take home. There were meats and cheeses available for a rudimentary charcuterie but they allow outside food so we did that. The outdoor area was second only to wine. Nestled into the hillside woods were a network of stairs leading to seating areas complete with nice tables and chairs that had a feel of privacy. It was very thoughtfully put together.

Food was excellent and so good. Server was kind! But I have some things to add…read more 1. I asked for a taste of a unique wine to see if I liked it. Server did not disclose that there was a charge for this, I think she should have because this is not a common thing to do at all. I'm a server and I would never charge someone for something without them knowing. I consider that stealing. 2. The appetizer came out after the food which happens and I get that mistakes happen but it just added more negativity to the experience. I think it should have been known by the server the order of the meal though. 3. Clicked the print receipt button and never got a receipt? Not a huge deal but just another negative addition. Why is the button an option if it wasn't meant to follow through with the action. 4. We asked to sit outside and there was no room which is fine. But when a deuce behind us asked to sit outside, they sat down inside and when the first table was open, they offered it to the people who were seated after us. Overall, this restaurant looks nice and the service was nice. I think this place could really improve in quality and numbers if they paid attention to the details. I would say we'd love to come back because the food was so good but the point of eating out is not just to enjoy food but have a good experience and enjoy your time and money. The negatives were unfortunately not worth it for us.

We arrived right when they opened, and the owner, Craig, gave us one of the best wine tasting experiences we've ever had. He took the time to explain wine in a way that made the whole experience so much more enjoyable and personal. I'll admit, my husband was hesitant when we first pulled up because the outside doesn't immediately scream "winery," but I told him to trust the process. I'm so glad we did because we ended up bringing home a case of wine with nine different varieties because we couldn't pick favorites. We loved them all. Craig also told us about their wine and food pairing dinners, which sound amazing, and his wife Candy does the meal pairings. We're already talking about getting a group together and making another trip back. Bonus: they also have a very sweet dog named Cooper who was the perfect winery greeter!

I figured at least we'd get a good story out of it. But when we got in, we were greeted by Craig and Candie who are the "mom and pop" of this mom and pop winery! Craig led us through the tasting of about 7 wines, and he shared historical information about WV wine country, grape lineage and history, the politics of wineries in WV, and most importantly what makes a "perfect wine". Suffice it to say we learned A LOT! And the wine was great too! We walked away with 6 bottles (they can't ship), and we plan to go back next time we're in town!
