Very nice little wine bar in Solvang! - Edit
We stopped by this place as we were meandering about Solvang and it was very nice to see that this place offered almost an exclusively vegan small bites menu. There was also a very large section of California sourced wines, ciders, beers, and non-alcoholic drinks. We ordered the vegan cheese platter. The cheeses, almonds, olives, and dried fruits were great, although the crostini was stale. Despite the stale crostini, the place had great vibes, and we sat by the fireplace which made it even better.

Unfortunately underwhelming - Edit
My wife and I were excited to come try the vegan charcuterie and a few glasses of wine, but we were a little disappointed with both the charcuterie and the staff’s lack of knowledge of which wines might be vegan friendly. The cheeses and meats on the board were nice, but the bag of extremely hard crostini made it difficult to enjoy. We asked the staff about wines that might be vegan friendly, but they were unable to tell us so we had to resort to using Barnivore to find a bottle that was suitable.

Ryan, we are so sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your experience here with us. There are currently 6 wines in house that we can guarantee are vegan as the winemakers have guaranteed they are vegan. These are the only wines that we recommend to our guests who only want vegan wines. As the owners (and only employees), we stand behind every recommendation. The crostini served with our platters are made by a local, artisan bakery and are VERY crunchy but had you told us that you didn't enjoy them, we would have switched them out with our locally made vegan crackers. Our goals is to provide the best possible experience for every guest and we are actively working with each of the winemakers we represent to gather as much accurate information on their process as we possibly can. We appreciate your feedback, encouraging us to always do better and hope that you will visit us again in the future.

Great wine & charcuterie - Edit
The charcuterie platter we got was awesome with vegan meats & cheeses! Almost everything on their menu was marked as vegan. The beer & wine we got were also really good. We’d return!

A hidden gem - Edit
The best (and only) place in the SYV where you can enjoy a delicious fully vegan cheese and charcuterie platter while beer and wine tasting. The owners are both vegan and hand select everything so they know how to guide you through the extensive local menu. Beer and wine tasting (changes daily), enjoy a glass or bottle, and you can purchase beer and wine bottles to go.
