The appetizers were excellent. We ordered a couple and wished we had ordered more. The main was great as well. Will definitely revisit

We stopped by here before our dinner and hotel stay in Lincoln. They carry a delicious selection of Ontario wine as well as some small locally handmade gifts. They also have very friendly employees! What more can you ask for?

Tim Alexander

Great pizza.... the restaurant (outdoors in the summer) is very nice with a great atmosphere.

Kory Besta

Visited on a wine pass. The staff was very nice and polite, but were super busy with the discover pass. There was a bit of a wait since all tasting were being done outside.

Fernando T

Worst customer service in any of the wineries in this region. Mediocre wine. For a quiet day with no one else there, received unfriendly, uninviting service and forced pleasantries. Tried 3 samples, handed a $5 bill to which the response was her turning away saying "you're good.". When asked if it's only a dollar per tasting, she walked to the counter to say "if you don't have exact change I'm gonna have to charge you tax" [for the tastings]. And then "oh you're lucky the machine didn't charge you". Will not return, not the type of service typical of the smaller wineries in this region.

Been there, beautiful place???? Love the wines and the owner at here, especially the midnight red wine

Bruno Ricardo

Excellent food and service. Simple and tasty menu very reasonably priced. There’s also picnic tables for the ones who want their wine tasting even closer to the vines. We’ll definitely come back.

Ian Kerr

Family run, nice people, bold flavors.

Trevor JD

Small sample size.

Heather Ervin

Had the best time on a Harbour picnic. Order your food before you arrive and have a delicious picnic and wine ready for you. Drive to a secluded picnic spot and enjoy the breeze off the water, crisp delicious wine, and yummy food pairings. We spent the whole afternoon enjoying the atmosphere and will definitely go again. Friendly and accommodating staff and a beautiful location.

Chris Husbands

I love harbour estates, I brought in a hisnload of people and the first thing the guy did was offer me water, such a warm welcome of gratitude, felt really good and I'll never forget it. The guests had a great time and they said the wine was impecable! The patio is big and covered well, the vibrant yellow adds a nice touch to the building although it does cover up their name a little bit but if your coming here, then u already know where you are and why u came!

Lolo Etm

Wonderful experience! Thank you so much!

Robert Fraser

Our favourite winery to date. The food is absolutely delicious every time we eat here. The wine is amazing and so is the service. Family owned and run gives it a feeling of being home with your own family. I recommend anyone to give it a try. Such a beautiful place to be.

David Bailey

Just had a 2012 Midnight, very nice.

Eva Rodinová

Laura G.

Must-go location. I went there to throw my grandma a surprise birthday party and they did not only accommodate us all, but helped with the many things we asked for. The food was delicious and the wine was perfect for a sunny, summer day. Thank you for everything you did for my family and friends.

Richard Durrer

Nice and very affordable winery, with quality wines.

Neil Law

Beautiful to eat here as the sun is setting. They do some unique wines and we were pleased with what we tried. Even took some home. Cesaer salad was good but could use more garlic. Short ribs we're delicious and the turtle cake was fantastic. Staff/owners were great. Definitely going back

Philip Dusel

Wine was great! Excellent service!

Karen Spence

My sister and I had the loveliest time at Harbour Estates yesterday. We went for the picnic and what a wonderful experience! Everything was pre-ordered, we just had to let them know we had arrived and everything was brought out to our car (including a nice chilled bottle of wine!). The picnic area was so scenic and relaxing. I can't begin to say how much we enjoyed our time there. Please continue the picnic experience every summer, we will definitely be back!

james reimer

Never disappointed going to Harbour Estates. Great flavours of food and love the new patio

Tammy Gray

My favorite local Winery. Customer service is wonderful.

Bill Harris

Dinner on the patio was great.

Darlene Oickle

Harbour Estates makes some of my favourite Ontario wines. Their riesling is my all time favourite and the Baco runs a very close second. Fraser, Darlene and their family run a great operation. Very friendly and willing to answer any questions you may have.

kay lewis

Nice patio.had wine flights and appetizers for our group of 8..great service and location.

Sarah F

Luc Champagne

Weather was bad. We had couple of hours to kill. Pop in to this winery and did not regret. They gave us every wine to taste. We choose what we like. I really enjoyed a bit fruity wight not too dry (couple of others wights where too dry for my liking). And cheers plate was huge. It could support a few bottles of wine so to finish it we were keep asking for glasses to be refilled. Girls at the bar were very friendly. Could not say anything bad about service.

John Rich

Wine at the Best Services very Nice♡

Kathy Marof-Geffros

We recently held a Presentation at Harbour Estates Winery and it was absolutely amazing. I have organized several presentations for my company and I have never worked with a team that was so detailed. I would HIGHLY recommend this winery to anyone. The food and wine was incredible. Top notch service!!!!!!!!! We will definitely be back. FRASER you are amazing!!!!!!

Harbour Estate Winery. One of the best ice wine brewer in Niagara Fall region. A "Must go" place for the people really understand the beauty of ice wine.

Sean Deschamps

Wine was mediocre. Food was terrible. It was obviously supermarket food (think - No Frills / FreshCo grade). The best item served was beet crackers (from Costco), in conclusion - very disappointing. Servers were pleasant enough, but had zero concept of personal space in the middle of a pandemic. No face masks worn by staff, and they made it a point to remind people that masks weren’t mandatory to enter the building for bathrooms. Why would you encourage people not to wear masks during a pandemic? Definitely recommend avoiding this place.

Carrie Wright

Beautiful new building. Friendly staff with decent wine that is reasonably priced.

Irmgard Upmanis

We almost got lost due to incorrect directions from our GPS! Anyway, we tasted samples of four lovely wines, followed by a tour of the winery and a lovely lunch. It was a great way to spend an afternoon.

Hank Sobota

Nice afternoon out in the bottle of wine on my nice lady A beautiful afternoon enjoyed ourselves immensely

M G

My wife and I went to their grand opening on Sept 9 (love wine and cheese)and it was great. Lovely and new. Their prices were very affordable. We went for a walk down past the vineyard to see the harbour. There really wasn't much to see right by the lake. Don't go down the hill! But the view from the top was lovely. I expected them to set up a picnic table or something but I guess they were too busy at the main building. It was worth the walk. There is a special forest which I didn't expect. It was a 20 minute or so stroll down. I bought an $8.00 6oz. glass of wine and enjoyed that during our walk. Would have been 5 star if they had of set up something nice or comfortable at the top of the hill.

Mariana Penha

Amazing experience, the best winery service and ambiance. We selected the picnic table and everything was ready when we arrived, our food was well packed and the wine was a great recommendation made by one of the ladies that works there. The picnic table is nearby the harbour, is great to enjoy the atmosphere and the vibe is everything that we’re looking for in a Saturday afternoon. We’ll definitely come back. Cheers!

Natalie Hummel

Had a great visit at the Harbour Estates Winery! Was given an extensive tour by the owner and the variety of wines that we sampled were exceptional. Thanks for a wonderful visit!!!

Lola Macanowicz

Lovely spot. Great lunch. Amazing wine shopping completed

Kim C

Lovely lunch spot and good wines

Ian Newman

Lovely location. Enjoyed the merlot

Sonia M

The wine wasn't that great, but the food and service were both really good; the manager (or owner) went to each table and asked if we were enjoying our food, which was a nice touch. I recommend the hamburger and chicken sandwich if you're looking for something hearty after a day of wine tasting in the area.

Dave & Angel

Had two wonderful charcuterie boards with some wine in the picnic area away from the main building. Great service, very prompt and friendly Fraser looked after us and was super. Would go back again

Dmitry Barinov

Skip if you can. The staff is cluelessly cheerful. That's the only positive thing about the restaurant. Our first warning was when on Saturday night in a winery we have been told: "There is NO WINE TASTING - just a buy a bottle that we recommend". Again: No wine tasting in a winery. We had to buy wine by full glasses and then split it among the group. The meal - was abhorrent. "Everything salad" came straight from MacDonald. "Baked Brie" is a huge cheap cheese with LOTS of jam on it. "Bruschetta" just floats in cheap balsamic vinegar. "Chicken Parm" is a piece of frozen, heavy breaded chicken breast (I swear frozen section in No Frills has better quality) with some pasta with sauce straight from Ragu can. "Meat dish" uses salt as a main ingredient and has some mashed potatoes that taste like they are made from instant mix on a side. And the view you get is a gravel parking lot.

Konrad Drewnowski

Very nice place. Came down for the ice wine festival. The staff were very nice and friendly (food is very yum) and the ice wines were lovely as well.

Jonathan McKee

Beautiful place!

Shari Western

We had the pleasure of having my sister's wedding venue here this past weekend. Both the ceremony and reception held under a tent up on the hill, surrounded by grape Vines. It was absolutely perfect! Fraser Mowat and the rest of the amazing staff went above and beyond to give us the most memorable day!! Amazing food, fine wine, picturesque scenery and fantastic customer service!!

S Riley
