Love thier wine and the owners are genuinely great people. Just finished my last bottle and will head out for more in April for my birthday. Also looking forward to enjoying some live music and celebrating thier 50th anniversary in May.

Quirky little winery on the Oregon Coast. Wine flight was yummy, and the space was very cozy with fun decor all around.

Delicious sweet wines and knowledgeable and friendly workers! Would definitely recommend, bought two bottles and will stop in again if I’m in town.

We were not greeted when we arrived and they do not provide wine glasses. If you don't want to use their plastic cups you have to purchase your own wine glass. Don't have anything to say about the wine since we did not stay.

Very interesting place. For us there was not a lot of depth to the wines.

Only 2 beers available- I’d expect more selection

This winery is known for its sweet fruit wines. This year’s crop doesn’t disappoint!They offer $10 generous tasting pours of any 5 wines of their huge selection. Prices are very reasonable, and weather permitting you can sip you samples (or glasses) outside and take in the gorgeous view of the Neakahnie Mountains nearby.The best part is how friendly and helpful their staff is. This isn’t for the snooty wine crowd, this is for people who enjoy life and want to have fun and try what others make. Dogs are welcome on a leash. Bring some food and have your lunch with a bottle of Oregon blackberry wine!

Super casual, affordable wine tasting. Nehalem Bay Winery is located on the outskirts of the main part of town and has beautiful views of Nehalem and the mountains. They have shaded seating outside and picnic tables throughout their property. Their sweet wines were absolutely delicious - I love a sweet fruit wine, and they had a TON of them on the menu. I tried their honey mead, Oregon blackberry, peach, pear, and cranpere wines. The honey mead and the peach were my favorite - they're very sweet and not for everyone!It's a very casual atmosphere, and was very different from other wine tastings I've done. It was $10 for a tasting of 5 wines and that tasting fee was waived with a purchase of a bottle of wine. The tasting itself was nothing special - you order your tasting wines inside at the bar, and they gave them to you one at a time. The wine is served in plastic cups. There wasn't really any indoor seating, so you either stood kind of awkwardly in the inside space between each tasting, or you could go outside. We went and sat outside between each pour, but it was such a minimal amount of wine we were getting up and going back inside to get our next wine and didn't feel like we were really able to enjoy the tasting.At other tastings, I've had either a flight of wines, or I've had a server pour each of the wines and give more information about each of them. The person who was working was very knowledgable, but didn't give much information about the wines unless we asked specific questions about the history of the winery and the wines themselves.You could also buy half and full pours at their location, in addition to the bottles and the tasting. They have super reasonable pricing, but we weren't blown away by the experience. It's the only winery in town and the wines are delicious, so it's worth a visit, but don't expect a traditional wine tasting/winery tour at this location.
Always a good time here and very good wine. Love the Cranperé wine.

A low key, fun and relaxing winery! Loved the conversation, the variety of wines and the entire experience! Make this a stop on your trip and enjoy!

Had a great time with Melissa just chatting and sampling some wines. Ended up discovering a tasty pinot noir and a blackberry I decided to purchase. If you are looking for a fun activity in the nehalem area, check this place out!

Super casual and inexpensive wine tasting! We tried several sweet wines for $10 which was waived when we bought some wine.We flew on Alaska Airlines to Oregon so were super excited that wines fly free and Nahalem Bay Winery was able to box up our 3 bottles and attach a label to it for our flight. It was very well packed and marked as fragile!The service here was great! So friendly and informative.Not busy when we went on a weekday.

Fun little spot, inexpensive wine tasting. I like that the tasting is free if you buy a bottle, and they have enough of a variety that it's likely most people will find something they enjoy. The wines were decent, not going to be a go-to for me but certainly good enough to bring a bottle home. All the seating is outdoors (uncovered). I was glad to find them open year-round but would love a spot to sit inside so I could take more time savoring the sips rather than feeling awkward standing in the middle of a room. It did not appear that any food was available, so I recommend a meal before you visit if you don't like wine on an empty stomach. The sweet wines are very sweet and it was nice to have some good dry options too. The tasting is very informal, more like a "which would you like next" format than a "we recommend tasting in this order to not overwhelm your palate" format. Overall I would take the detour again to go back if I happen to be driving that way but probably wouldn't make a dedicated trip just for this.
