Honsberger Estate Winery, Restaurant And Event Venue

We ended our winery tour at Honsberger Estate and it was the perfect final stop. Right as we arrived, we were greeted by a llama, which was such a fun and unexpected touch - it definitely set the tone for a memorable visit. The staff was warm and welcoming, even though the place was busy, and the live music created a great atmosphere to enjoy while we did some wine tasting. We ordered a single bottle of wine to share along with the mussels pizza and a fennel salad, and everything was absolutely delicious. The food paired beautifully with the wine, and the scenery around the estate was stunning - peaceful, picturesque, and the kind of place you just want to linger in. We had such a wonderful experience and can’t wait to come back.

A random choice that paid huge rewards! Barb was our hostess, very knowledgeable. Food smelled great but we had already eaten. Wines, everyone of them, well balanced, great flavour with depth, and smooth finish. Well worth the stop and we have put this winery on our must go list!

We visited Honsberger for a birthday on a random weeknight in the summer. The main things that I want to highlight are the incredible woodfired pizzas, the excellent live music which made the atmosphere incredible, and the excellent service, including Winston the Cat and the sheeps. Starting with the food - our food was incredibly well made and delicious. Pictured in my review are the cup n char pepperoni pizza, the margarita pizza, the falafel bowl, and a couple of the wine options. The pizza in particular was incredible. As someone who has eaten many pizzas, from frozen to authentically Neapolitan pizza, this pizza is up there. I actually had the margarita pizza and I have some regrets because LOOK at the pepperoni pizza. It doesn't get much better than that. All of the others enjoyed their food and drinks as well. I had the lemonade. The atmosphere was excellent as well, with 2 fellas playing live music - an electric guitar and a piano. They added enormous vibes to the evening - they were playing super chill tunes, nothing too major or loud which was lovely. Where they weren't playing, the background music was nice as well. The vibe of this location was incredible as well - very quiet little farm/patio vibe. Rustic, but nice. Finally the service. Our server was quick and polite. She also gave us some history on the place, and introduced us to what was arguably the best part of the evening - Winston. Winston is a cat, and he was a total vibe - patiently guarding the door where the servers were coming in and out of. They also had sheep and alpacas - i learned later on that they are actually the ones responsible for ground maintenance, which is excellent. They seemed to do a good job. Sadly, the chickens were all asleep. But I am sure they would have been good too. All in all, good times, good food. Will be returning to HOUSE a pep pizza soon.
