My hubby and I enjoyed a beautiful luncheon with wine tasting for his birthday . It was a beautiful day with amazing service and ambiance overlooking the valley , we paired our wine with a charcuterie board to snack . The presentation was excellent and the swings make a great hangout seat! Can't wait to visit again next date night. The purple Rain cider was my favourite!

The atmosphere at shale ridge is very unique, love the swings and the area to take photos. We had the charcuterie board and the caramel cheese was the favorite. We had a wine flight and vergin flight which were great, and the cider flight which was not a hit at our table. We will be back to try some other dishes and beverages in the future!

We went a few weekends ago and loved everything! This time around they changed the menu and prices. Prices went up for everything and you don’t know how much a glass of wine or cider is unless you ask. Also the bottles are listed with only the retail price, so it’s another $20 on top of the retail prices to order one to the table. Found it deceiving that it wasn’t listed on the menu.

Very nice place. Was super loud. Some customers were not considerate of others there also trying to enjoy the experience. Those customers were never told to change behaviour or be considerate of others which was annoying. Service was well... when the waitress came to us. It wasn't busy when a friend and I went but service was slow. Waited a while for waitress to come take additional drink orders after the first one. Staff were very nice. Food was good, could have added more to the charcuterie board.

The pizza was very good I think they should’ve had a couple different sizes of charcuterie boards. They had a small and a large, which the large was way too big for four people and the small was a little too small for four people. Very pretty place. I will probably go back.

Hi Lynn, Thanks for your review and sharing your thoughts with us! I appreciate your note about the charcuterie board - our menu is always evolving so we will take this into consideration. Hope to see you again soon! Cheers, Larissa General Manager, Shale Ridge
