Chamard Vineyards Bistro

We enjoyed an exceptional dinner and terrific service on a beautiful, rustic setting. We particularly enjoyed the Ahi tuna and Bibb salad appetizers, swordfish entree and chicken pesto sandwich. A bottle of Chardonnay complemented dinner. Flourless chocolate cake, creme brûlée and pot de crème were healthy portion size and so tasty. Our waiter, Garrett, was attentive and knowledgeable including about gluten-free options, of which there are many on the menu. Overall, a most pleasant experience at the vineyards.

Wonderful food! Nicely priced and delicious wine list (we had the Riesling). Started with olives, then the burratta berry salad. Entrees were the chicken and swordfish. And beautiful views of the vineyards.

First time here. Will definitely come back when it's warmer and lined with flowers on the outside. The place looks Charming on the outside too. The inside felt very cozy, casual but classy. The staff was great and very attentive. And the food was comfort food who is complex flavor and not overwhelming. Well done chef!

My God what a wonderful lunch and a delicious wine we had. This will be our new go to spot. I can't wait to try dinner here. Garrett our waiter was so accommodating and friendly. Don't miss this spot, especially if you just went shopping at the Clinton Crossing Outlets....

Went here to treat my better half after some lobster rolls on the shore. Intended just to do a wine tasting but the menu looked so good we had a small second diner. Had a reservation for the deck, but had to wait. No worries! Grabbed a couple of glasses of wine and hung out on the deck right by the pond. The winery and the surrounding area are beautiful, and I don't say that about a lot of things. Service was slow but it was very obvious they were understaffed so I won't hold that against them. The service/staff themselves were fantastic and made some great recommendations. Check them out and try all the delicious things on the menu!

I have been to several vineyards in CT and really think that this one sets itself apart. The food was unique and I enjoyed everything I tried. The wine was excellent and reasonably priced. The environment is beautiful and upscale, but still fairly casual at the same time. The staff was very friendly even during a busy time. Finally the grounds are beautiful and walkable which also set this vineyard apart. I would recommend making a reservation before your visit, and cost wise I would say a little more expensive than average, but worth it for the unique menu. I will definitely be visiting again!

1:30 on a Friday afternoon and the bistro was nearly deserted due to road closures on 95 and Rt 1. Such was our luck to have patio dining all to ourselves on a gorgeous late summer afternoon. The food and service were top notch, on par with any fine dining and certainly exceeding our expectations for a winery. Chef’s attention to subtle flavor notes, such as lemon brine olives and charred naan with a light sprinkle of salt and ?? were appreciated. Server was helpful in choice of wine pairings with cheese starter and smoked salmon. Dessert was no exception to the delicious culinary creations. A good value all around. Can’t wait to come back.

I had my wedding in June 2025 at Chamard Vineyard. This is absolutely a perfect wedding venue and the winery & vineyards are stunning! I cannot say enough good things about my experience. My wedding was about 30 people. Amy, the even sales manager, ensured my special day went smoothly and thoroughly. She was super attentive, professional, and quickly responded to any questions. The staff serving at my wedding especially Nella and bartender Mark went above and beyond to provide such an amazing atmosphere. The attention to detail was superb, the food was amazing (my guests were raving about the salmon and filet mignon), and the decor set up in the barn reception was immaculate. Chamard even accommodated our wedding for the weather (luckily we were able to be outside!). I cannot wait to visit again, and I cannot recommend this wedding venue enough.
