Went for music. Music was great. Unfortunately I can not say the same about the food. I ordered a pizza and they say it's wood fired. It was not. It seemed like a shell with cheap toppings. Not worth the price for sure. I will not be getting the pizza again. Some people there got other food that looked ok but it's expensive. My pizza and drink came to over $35 bucks and that was before tip. Waitress was nice and efficient. Just not worth the price.

I would put 0 star if I could. I ordered 2 enolmatic bottle fillers on 12/15/21 for $578. It's been 17 months and i still haven't receive them or a refund. I call this theft. I talked to someone who never gives his name and he said multiple times he will send them and they will lose money because they are now more money to buy. Who's fault is that. He said he is really busy. Come on. He is such a liar. Well he told me last time they will be sent to me by 4/15/23. Of course another lie. If you want to talk to the biggest liar ever call 815-368-8313. If you deal with this winery and you called this number you know you are going to get screwed. Don't order anything online or spend a dime with these crooks.

A bit out of the way from Buffalo but so well worth the ride. we have a New York wine card and there are over 50 wineries, distilleries and breweries to visit. This was our 2nd road trip. and they keep getting better each time. Reason we chose this one was a bistro. Food to soak up the wine tasting for driving home.
We started with our wines. With our card we got 3 tastings each but there was so much too choose from. They have their dry and sweet but also the Pirate collection. We chose one sweet and 2 pirate wines. We ended up buying diamond so good and black pearl. Both on the sweet side.
Then we had some lunch. It is a small seating area with a fire place. The menu is pretty extensive starters, panini, pizza and burgers. We started with a soup tomato creamy with avocado. It was full of flavor and creamy. We ordered buffalo chicken quesadilla and a BLT pizza woodfire. Waiting for food but the wait was worth it. We didn't mind the wait as they had a craft show going on and they did a raffle while we were there. The food was exceptional. We weren't expecting much because the winery goal is their wine but food was made with just as much care.
If out this way it's a must do! Wine and food! Can't beat it and just an enjoyable afternoon.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aug 18, 2018
We came here for a blueberry and bluegrass festival but when we showed up we realized that they moved the date due to the weather. While we were there the place looked nice so we decided to stay for a bit. We had a great experience. The owner did our wine tasting which was pretty good and informative. He was very friendly. We enjoyed the wine. It was a generous amount of wine too. Or favorite read the blueberry and the dry Concord. Also when he mixed a Belgium beer with the blueberry wine. We also got foods which was tasty but not incredible. We sat outside which was very nice and quiet. The service was good and refilled our water whenever needed without asking. Overall it was a fun day even though the festival wasnt going on...pleasant surprise

This place is a hidden gem on the border of Hilton and Hamlin.
Had the opportunity to meet with the owner, who was super friendly and hospitable. He was able to recommend a few of their creations that were ostensibly out of this world.
They also had some treats that were extremely delectable. This spot is bigger than it looks, with more to offer than you'd realize at first glance.
I will be back soon to try more wines and more of the treats!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Michele Taylor M.Rochester, NY067Jan 9, 2022
Dave and his team are welcoming and engaging, eVen when their short staffed because of COVID. Dave loves what he does and it shows. I've personally called him on his cell and he always answers, when he could just redirect my call. We've taken classes with Dave, gone for events, dined in and have done take out from the Bistro. This is one of our favorite places.

This review is really for one of the classes offered here. I would definitely return to try the food menu and have a cider or 2.
This place is seriously way out in the country! Way out in Hilton, it is quite rural.
My hubs and I went to a mozzarella making class here (purchased on Groupon) and it was super fun. It was actually a demo, you watch, ask questions and are sent home with a little kit to make your own.
Prior to the demo, the owner took the group to the bar to sample a bunch of wines, ciders, and beer that are made here. Truth be told, I am not a huge fan of NYS wines, I find them way too sweet. That being said, I did enjoy some of their "drier" styles.
Cider here was quite excellent, if you like cider.
After having our tasting, we had our demo while being served a very nice charcuterie plate (you are also able to pick out a bottle of wine/cider to enjoy or brink home).
Fun afternoon.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Lisa M.Rochester, NY16213Jan 2, 2019
Cozi, friendly place to have a glass of wine and/or a delicious meal. Whether you're visiting in the summer and sitting in the patio or inside snuggled up next to the fire Mayers has good food, great prices and warm hearted people running the winery/restaurant.
My only complaint is that there are not too many choices in vegetarian/vegan options. But they are always willing to tweak a dish as requested to fit dietary desires.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Maribelle N.Melbourne, FL0341Oct 11, 2020
Can't say enough how disappointed I am. Very dirty.. stay cats running out of doors while entering. The server was not knowledgeable at all, and didn't offer to get information she didn't know. We got a microwaved app we took one bite of and 2 drinks we had a couple sips of and walked out $40 lighter... will not be back.

My husband and I walked in and there were 2 workers and they just stared at us..... so we asked if we could get a tasting menu and they said they didn't have one and to just look at the wall of wine....... Then they seated us outside before we said what we wanted and she just asked if we liked dry or sweet and they'd bring us a flight.... So we didn't even pick the wines we tried..... there were 2 workers and not a single customer other than us and we waited like 25mins for our flights... she gave me all sweet after I said liked dry.
