Lavender Crest Winery

Yes this was a good spot enjoyed the wine and the service. They have a food offering of wines you can chose from as well as how the have them flighted. We had a great time and will visit again. We did have some small bites and enjoyed that as well. Overall recommend and will visit again.

When I'm in the Quad Cities visiting family, I always try to stop at Lavender Crest for Lunch and of course wine. . My most recent visit was on a beautiful sunny Friday afternoon. We dined on their outdoor patio. I love eating outside when I can and the patio offers a nice view of part of their Vineyard. I sampled 1 of the newest wines, Stone Grown. It's a white sweet wine of Apple and Cinnamon. We loved it so much we had a bottle with our lunch. A nice bonus if you buy 6 bottles you receive 10% off. For lunch I had a cup of the Tomato Bisque Soup and Ron's Roast Beef. The soup was nice and hot and very flavorful. I also enjoyed the sandwich, but next time I'd ask them to toast or grill the bread. It is a very hearty appetizing sandwich. Our server was excellent and very attentive. She easily handled a number of tables during a busy lunch time. I've been here several times throughout the years and have never been disappointed.

This place hit on all cylinders for me. Our attendant was polite, courteous, and friendly. Service was prompt, and the food was very good.

I ordered their roast beef panini. This consisted of thinly sliced roast beef, provolone cheese, caramelized onions on a ciabatta roll with a small dish of horsey sauce for dipping. It was very good.

We tried a wine flight - choose any five wines for $6.00. We tried the following five wines:

Michi Sepi: Cabernet & Norton
Colona Red: Merlot Blend
Red Velvet: Marquette & Frontenac
Chocolate Love: Frontenac
Foxy: Concord

These were dry to sweet wines (in descending order). I lean more towards drier wines so found the first three to my liking - not so much the other two (too sweet IMO).

This place sells a nice variety of wines and gifts. They have a huge back room suitable for weddings and/or receptions. They're open 11am to 4pm so plan accordingly and check them out.

I've never had a bad meal here. The service is always on point. Their wine seems reasonably priced. On my last visit I had the French dip. The quality of the meat was fantastic. It was so tender and had tons of flavor. I've also been here for different events and they provide excellent food and service for events also. Definitely worth the trip if you want to try something different for lunch.

Terrible service... waited for a long time for our food .. a simple salad .. the waitress was rude about it as well..

Gloria and Ron are terrific hosts. The wine selections are not only very good but also very good value for cost. Highly recommend it. Great views on back patio of vineyards.

For a random place in cornfield IL, it's really good. Enjoyed a basic garden salad with balsamic vinaigrette. Salad was crisp. Had the special which was prime rib sandwich with dip sauce. Bread was warm and soft and prime rib delicious along with the sauce. Better than menu described.

Better food than expected from the area. Bought bottle of red velvet wine. Very cute items to buy. And bottles have eclectic labels. Wine is priced very reasonable. Paid $13.99.

No complaints

We had an amazing experience there Saturday afternoon. We were doing a post bachelorette party and they were able to accommodate 10 of us safely outside.

Thank you for a great experience!

I will start with the positives to this large facility. They have a small shop with a variety of items from jam, chocolates, wine novelty items and of course wine. The ladies working were friendly and sat us right away.

The food for me was a bit limited. They only have sandwiches and wraps which was ok but I was hoping for something else. I had the corkscrew, dad had the ultimate grilled cheese and mom the palette with the beef soup. All sandwiches were pretty good but nothing incredible.

I did not care for the bread on the Corkscrew and the turkey was a bit dry for my taste. I would have liked more cheese and to taste the bacon more. Dad liked the apple slices in the grilled cheese. The chips were disappointing because they were not homemade. Mom thought the soup was good but barely any beef in the scoop that she received.

We also tried the sweet temptation wine which was very good - almost like a Moscato but the label needs to be re-done. It is not very appealing.

Beautiful showroom. Nice selection of wine and chocolate and gifts. Delicious lunch. Nice place for wedding reception or banquet. Staff is always friendly. Nice scenery to sit outside and enjoy a glass of wine.
