I met a friend at Chamard Vineyards for lunch and we were both impressed with the overall experience! From our knowledgeable waiter to the freshness of our salads and the most amazing chocolate dessert we have ever had…wow! We also chose a bottle of Composition red wine that was amazing and well worth the splurge. This was definitely a 5 star experience!

In my experience, it is unusual to have a winery that has a full menu rather than just cheese platters, a food truck, or bring your own food. The luncheon menu had unique items like baked Camembert en Croute and an assortment of sliced meats and pate for charcuterie. The salads and sandwiches were delicious and reasonably priced. We ordered two bottles of wine, and both were outstanding. The ambiance of the bistro is cozy (roaring fire in the fireplace) and the wait staff is competent and friendly. I will definitely be back in the Summer and Fall so that I can enjoy the views of the vineyards. Highly recommend - you won't be disappointed!

Our first visit to Chamard. Food (we had gnocchi and steak frites) and wine (we had two of the reds, Heritage 70/30 and Heritage Cab) were all fabulous. Service was welcoming and excellent throughout the evening. Highly recommend.

My husband took me here to celebrate my birthday and everything was exceptional The food and the service were excellent and the atmosphere and the wine of course were outstanding. The place was bustling when we arrived for our 4:30 reservation on a Sunday afternoon and we were seated promptly We had a nice long relaxing afternoon the place was so romantic We will definitely be back and we’ll bring our friends with us!

We’ve moved out of state and used to come to the winery and bistro frequently. It’s been 3 1/2 years and I’m happy to say they did not disappoint. Charcuterie and cheese board complete with baguettes (and extras when needed) were delicious and filling. Patrick recommended the perfect bottle of wine (a 70/30 blend). Sadly they had run out of creme brûlée, but the chocolate pot creme was yummy. Highly recommend 🍷

Great atmosphere, wine. Food inconsistent, spotty - seemingly no one is responsible for quality check prior to leaving the kitchen... Little things like no quality sea salt, fresh ground pepper, extra lemon slides for shrimp (just one slice) ...

Great table by the window where the beautiful art hangs. Servers were all so kind , attentive and seemed genuinely happy to be there. Menu is excellent , good range of items , excellent portion size , not too excessive. All three salads were amazing with dressing that was a perfect pairing with the salad . The shrimp and chicken add ons were amble and cooked exact. The bread that comes to the table was so yummy with the olive oil for dipping. The flights of wine were perfect for tasting and we new just what to get to drink with lunch. Prosecco was excellent.
