Reviews Summary
Arbor Crest Wine Cellars is widely praised for its stunning views and historic Cliff House Estate, offering a relaxing atmosphere and quality wines. While some find food portions small and prefer glass over plastic cups, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many calling it a must-visit destination.
"One of the best wineries we have ever been to. We got one red and one white tasting flight. All the wines were very good.
We also ordered the hummus (forgot to photo) with Naan bread. Yummmmm. So good.
The grounds are historical and the staff was very informative about its history. After sitting under the trees with our tasting flight we got a glass of wine and a beer and toured the property. It is absolutely stunning. Breathtaking. The photos do not do it any kind of justice.
There was an outdoor concert later the day we went. All the staff seemed genuinely happy as they were setting up for it.
If we lived in the area we would come here regularly."

"Beautiful winery. Parking was easy and staff were friendly. Wine is good and very moderately priced. They also have frozen rose. I would prefer to have been given glass wine glasses. We bought single drinks (frozen roses. beers, and wines) and also bought a wine bottle and were given plastic glasses. Food was good but portions were small."

"As a wedding videographer/photographer, I'll never get tired of capturing weddings at Arbor Crest! It has so many unique areas, beautiful views, so much shade on hot summer days, and the staff is outstanding.
It's especially great for large wedding parties since the cliff house is very spacious for getting ready, and the shaded areas are large enough for the mid-day wedding party photos, even if you have a really big group.
If you're considering getting married here, I can confidently say you'll have an amazing experience!"
