Lavender Crests chicken salad is the greatest chicken salad I’ve ever had in my entire life.

We were here 3 years ago with the old owners. And, again last week with the new owners. Good snacks, really good wine and nice facility.

Visited as part of a Harvest Host stay. Very friendly staff at a convenient and scenic location. Many delicious wines but they have much more available than just wine.

When I'm in the Quad Cities visiting family, I always try to stop at Lavender Crest for Lunch and of course wine. . My most recent visit was on a beautiful sunny Friday afternoon. We dined on their outdoor patio. I love eating outside when I can and the patio offers a nice view of part of their Vineyard. I sampled 1 of the newest wines, Stone Grown. It's a white sweet wine of Apple and Cinnamon. We loved it so much we had a bottle with our lunch. A nice bonus if you buy 6 bottles you receive 10% off. For lunch I had a cup of the Tomato Bisque Soup and Ron's Roast Beef. The soup was nice and hot and very flavorful. I also enjoyed the sandwich, but next time I'd ask them to toast or grill the bread. It is a very hearty appetizing sandwich. Our server was excellent and very attentive. She easily handled a number of tables during a busy lunch time. I've been here several times throughout the years and have never been disappointed.

Very nice setting for a wine tasting. We set outside for a 5 wine taste along with the cheese and cracker option. Of the wines tasted we bought two bottles to take home. The venue is beautiful and there is an event space in the other half of the building. We will definitely stop here again when passing through the area.

Very cute winery with delicious wines. Cozy atmosphere with vineyards in back. Definitely worth the trip. Charcuterie boards are great too!!!
I've been to Lavender Crest several times for their great food and wine, but this time I was at Lavender Crest as a Vendor setting up balloon decorations for a wedding. The facility is beautiful and the owners are some of the nicest, caring, and genuine people you would ever meet. They welcomed me in early and even gave me alternative accommodations for cleanup because I was double-booked. I enjoyed socializing with the owners and being in their event facility. The room is large and spacious with lots of light. Great place to have an event!

If a guest walks in 15 minutes before closing please let them know.I was Not aware of this until I ordered a wine flight and the chicken salad. I felt massively rushed when the server put my check out 5 minutes after getting it (I asked if they were closing soon assuming half an hour or so and she said they had closed at 5 ...it was a few after). I felt bad for not knowing but feel like she should have said something and I would have passed on the visit.I didn't have a chance to get a bottle or even ask if I could (I'm not from the area and there was a wine I really loved and would have purchased). My card was ran and I was pretty much ignored until I left. I did tip because I don't believe in stiffing people but Wow.

Gloria and Ron are terrific hosts. The wine selections are not only very good but also very good value for cost. Highly recommend it. Great views on back patio of vineyards.

My husband and I stayed here with Harvest Host in our Motorhome and we were able to check out the winery which was very nice! Beautiful spot with huge indoor space with a full bar and nice outdoor section as well. We both had wine flights here, the wine was really nice, large variety! The staff was also very kind to us and very welcoming. Thanks for hosting us!
