    Had a great experience this afternoon at Shale Ridge Winery. Despite a staff shortage, we were still able to get our cider flight and tasty flatbread in a reasonable time. We were able to enjoy the outdoor seating, perfect weather to take in the views of the surrounding fall foliage. Great location and friendly staff!

    The only negative relates to the wasps …which only Mother Nature can control! This place is so cool. Went last weekend and decided to go again with our girls home from school. Love that we can bring the dog. Lovely drive in the country from London.

    The experience and service was great! The food choices are limited but the flatbreads were delicious! We ordered a wine flight and a cover flight. The wines and ciders were mediocre and tasted a bit watery. But the views and ambiance were perfect!!! Worth the visit.

    What a beautiful setting! Our servers were excellent and the ambience was perfect for a fall outing. The place was alive and happy. We had a cider flight, a local beer and a wine flight. We also tried the apple and Brie pizza and Roma pizza - the crust and toppings were delicious. We will be back!

    We had a wonderful, peaceful experience at Shale Ridge. It was our first time there and we have plans to come again. The scenery out the back over the farm land and trees was a perfect fall date. The food was great— perfect for an easy afternoon with a loved one and delicious cider!! It was reasonably priced for the ambiance and care taken for the food and drinks and thought behind the whole vibe of the establishment.
