3rd time trying to get there! The door is closed, nobody answered the phone, mailbox is full so I can’t leave the message. Says that they open till 8pm on Fridays, got there at 7:20pm. Will never come back and try to get there one more time. Terrible!!

We have been long time members, always rooting for them during their far too frequent closures. Even stayed on while we were far too busy with new babies to make it in more than once a year. Enough is enough, now they are closed again with no info, still charging but don’t respond to emails, and if you call you end up at a vm that is full even though it says it’s during office hours. Feels very fraudulent now. Super sad because it’s a cute concept but has always been poorly executed and managed as a business, but we really rooted for them, a least hoping that each change we’ve stuck anround thru would bring positive changes….. until now. Now we are left needing to contact our credit card company if they don’t respond to us soon.

Went by, hours showed they were open, they are not. No signage, or other reasons for closure.

Okay so this was my first time going to a winery. We got a Groupon for it, so we decided to give it a go. I loved the cheeses, and I ended up liking 1 wine, so we bought a bottle. They also gave us 2 of their wine glasses. It was a cool little day date, but it was like in a warehouse. So I recommend it to people in the area who don’t want to drive far to a vineyard. It was a nice lil day date.

I joined for the local winery experience. Their hours posted said they closed at 8. I walked down the street and heard the door lock at 7:30. We called by 7:31 to ask if they they had closed early, and explained we just wanted a glass and to buy a few bottles. They told us no, they lock up half an hour early. Canceled the membership that isn’t doing me any favors immediately. Don’t join, go to hi times or semi tropics.

I joined Orange Coast Winery's membership club for that local winery experience, living just up the street. It was a bummer that when I arrived at 7:30 on a Friday, they locked the door before their 8:00 closing time. When I called to explain I was just looking for one glass and wanted to buy a case, they still wouldn't let me in. Disappointing, and it led to us canceling our membership.

Giving this wine tasting room a two-star rating. I would have given it a one-star rating, but the wines are actually tasty. First of all there was no place to sit, wine tasting had to be done standing at the bar. Usually wine tastings are comped with bottle purchases and this was not the case. The person behind the counter was just a little "extra" if you know what I mean. Too many words, did not make the wine tasting experience enjoyable. I felt like he couldn't read the room as he tried to relate to guests. And I agree with a previous review, string cheese packaged and plastic was not the kind of cheese I was expecting at a wine tasting.. will not return.

What a bizarre place to visit, especially if you like tasting a variety of wines. They had ONE white, ONE rose, and then a bunch of reds. You've also gotta laugh when their complementary cheese and crackers consist of individually packaged string cheese. Next time I'll skip this and just drink a bottle of white in my hotel room.

I'm so glad they're back! Come in on Thursdays for their library tasting. You won't be disappointed!
