We visited the Vineyard & Brewery at Hershey for the first time to celebrate our daughter’s 21st birthday, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the live music added the perfect vibe to the celebration.
The wine was absolutely delicious—smooth, flavorful, and clearly crafted with care. But the real surprise favorite of the day was the bourbon tea—so refreshing and unique!
The staff was friendly, and everything was well-organized. We’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend for a fun and memorable day out!
Did some investigation on the website ahead of time, was really intrigued on the different beers and wines they had listed as options. Did not have a good experience at all. Went in for a wine and beer tasting. Woman who took care of us, told us that the beer tasting wasn't to be done here, but gave us no other insight as to where it was done. Then to set up for the wine tasting, she didn't even give me the wine descriptions list so I had to choose wines blindly. When it came time to the actual wine tasting, she knew nothing about any of the wines. She couldn't give you any insight other than the name. During this time, a group showed up for a scheduled tour. As soon as this happened, we got rushed to finish our tasting so she could begin handling the tour. We went down to the patio where a live band was setting up, so that intrigued us. At the bar, that is where we found out we could do beer flights. Only problem with that was, they only had a selection of 6 to choose from. All of the ones mentioned on the website, no where to be found. Asked the bartender, and she didn't even hear of the names that I was mentioning. The patio itself with the band was a very nice setting. You could sit back and relax, and enjoy the music. That is the only good, positive thing I can say about this winery. One of the worst ones I've ever been to as far as customer service and the experience itself. I'm well known for taking a case home with me from every winery I do a tasting at. I think it speaks for itself that we left empty handed. Will make a point of not returning.
Extremely unorganized and the wine is overpriced and honestly not good at all the owner is rude and treats employees terrible
Exceptional experience great price. We kind of got left behind at the end because the staff member started attending another party, she didn't even say bye or tell us what to do after the pairing so I was a little confused there. Besides that the property is amazing, the view is amazing the location is awesome and they have live music.... I would try it again to see how it turns out.
Trash wine and unorganized
This winery has gone down hill. We have been going for years and every year it gets worse. I will not be returning. The person we interacted with today was not excited to share any information. The price of the wine has significantly increased while the supply isn't consistently available.
I purchased a VIP tour & tasting through Clipp deals that was ready to expire over the weekend.Friday afternoon I took a guest with me for the tasting. Since we were unable to be there at 1 we had to forfeit the tour. Probably not a loss. The only woman in the tasting room had the demeanor of a wet mop! My guest commented, she doesn’t seem very happy to see us. The wine was mediocre, the room cold and depressing. My worst experience visiting a vineyard.Usually wineries are a lighthearted fun experience. Not Hershey, what a disappointment.
The band last night was to loud and not that great the peanut butter cider was and staff great
Good times l, good vibes.
Always a great place that keeps us coming back. Tonight my husband and I did a glass blowing class. The instructor was great, informative and kept every participants attentions. It was definitely a unique experience as well as fun and enjoyable.

The Vineyard and Brewery at Hershey is a nice spot with a relaxed vibe, great for spending time with friends or a date. Their beer is quite good, though we weren’t fans of about half of the ones we tried, likely because we went for some unique options. The wine is okay, not remarkable but enjoyable. We booked a brewery tour through Groupon, and while the guide was informative and engaging, the reception and welcoming area could use better organization—after being sent to three different spots, it took about 30 minutes before someone finally got us set up. Overall, it’s a good place to hang out and unwind, and we’d recommend giving it a try.
They never answer the phone. I’ve been trying to get in contact with some sort of manager. No one has reached out to me. Employees seem clueless, and when I asked for a manager because the manager should know more than the employee, apparently there’s no “manager” around?? “ I don’t know when she’ll be back” (which that’s not the employees fault but just the cherry on top) I just wanted to know if I can reuse this ticket or if I can just get a refund because I told them that I can’t attend. I wanted to go to salsa tonight but something happened and I wasn’t able to attend anymore. Last year I went every salsa night. I don’t even know how much I spent at the freaking vineyard. And I can’t even get a call back. I hope you enjoy my $10. Cause that’s the last you’ll get from me!
Salsa night dance ?
Rude and unprofessional. That’s it. Don’t waste your time or money here many other better vineyards in the area.
We were very disappointed with our experience today as Lynn, the owner, was very unprofessional. We had a large group for the wine and cheesecake tasting as it was mediocre at best for the price we each paid. We were unaware we were not allowed alcohol from outside the venue because it doesn't state anywhere on the website or at the vineyard itself. She proceeded to take a can of beer from someone and dump it out on the grass right in front of him. She needs people skills and customer service training if she doesn't want to run this establishment into the ground. We will not be returning.
