About the restaurant

We’re just a little south of Peachland, a little ways north of Summerland on Hwy 97 at the historic Greata Ranch site. It’s quiet out here. Serene. A peaceful oasis on a bench above Okanagan Lake with some incredible views. And, of course, there's all this wine to try too.

About the restaurant

Nestled in the rolling hills and lush landscape of Okanagan Falls at the south end of Skaha Lake, a twenty-minute drive south of Penticton, the Restaurant at Liquidity Wines reflects sustainable destination dining in the heart of our vineyards. Our connection to rugged terrain, mineral-rich glacial bench land, and the lake effect is tangible through the wines, dishes and ambiance. Each course is carefully curated by Chef Joshua Mueller, a culinary leader who trained in the kitchens of some of British Columbia's most inspired restaurants.

Allow us to take you on a multi-sensory exploration of estate-grown wines paired with in-season fare in this wine-paired experience created in concert with the land.

Join us for exceptional cuisine and elegant wines paired with exquisite views.

About the restaurant

If the valley prospers, we prosper. Everything you see on the terrace menu is homemade, grown in the estate's garden or produced locally with our agricultural partners. Chef Patrick's philosophy is that if it grows together, it goes together, which is why we offer wines from the same region to accompany your meal.

Our first time visiting this winery ( my husbands birthday) and it was the best! From the moment we arrived the two hostess’s that greeted us with some bubbly were so sweet, pleasant and very knowledgeable. The gift shop was not disappointing and our meal was to die for! Food pairings with wine was excellent and our waitress was the best. Trust me when I say you need to visit this winery you will not be disappointed.., the grounds are unbelievable. Thank you Mission Hill Winery for making our evening so special!!

About the restaurant

At Home Block Restaurant, we embrace the bounty of the Okanagan while our name pays homage to the Home Block Vineyard which surrounds us. Our building is crafted from fieldstone and 100-year-old reclaimed barn wood and our cuisine draws on those elemental roots. We integrate natural cooking methods like our wood-fired grill fueled by timber from local orchards and seasoned barrel staves. The result is honest, confident, and approachable food that unites flawlessly with CedarCreek wine.

Always excellent. I commend this restaurant for allowing guests to choose how much to tip as opposed to shoving a credit card machine under your nose with the minimum tip set at 20% and the server watching what you do. Well done to Old Vines for not doing this. Because I was able to choose I chose a tip that recognized the excellent service I received. My choice.

Kelowna

About the restaurant

The name BLOCK ONE represents the first vineyard planted in 2009 and is very special to
Proprietors Sheri-Lee and Curtis. “It taught us to be farmers; to be ONE with the land. There are things we will never experience again. That vineyard block represents the past – the starting point, getting our
hands dirty, all the ‘firsts’ of our business”. BLOCK ONE represents the future as this vineyard block now produces some of the estate’s finest fruit for our international award-winning wines. You will be amazed by the outdoor seating area of the restaurant. Seating is covered by an engineering wonder in a one-of-a-kind cantilever that is already drawing attention in the world's architectural community. The restaurant moves to an equally impressive indoor space during inclement days and in the winter months.

All groups of 6 and larger are subject to an auto-gratuity of 20%.
