Awesome event! The vendors at this show displayed and shared the best of northwest food and wine. Love that I could purchase my favorite tasting right at the show and chat with the owners! This made the experience very unique! Looking forward to next years event! Cheers!!!!

Super disappointed with this event (11/8/19) @ $75.00 a ticket (+$15 to park) for what I thought was a all inclusive event, featuring great food and wine;- LONG LINES for EVERYTHING!!!- What little food that was on offer, was handed out in bite sized samples. Reminded me of Costco...- Because of the LONG LINES, too many people were drinking whatever they could get. Not many OREGON wineries on hand...-Some of the vendors included a home delivery food service (no samples), some type of lotion company, hotel from the beach, time shares, retirement homes, and a finanical service! None of them offered any type of food or wine... Which is what I paid $75.00 a ticket for!!!- Maybe I'm just getting old. But the lack of bistro style tables (We counted 4) to eat at or any type of seating was a huge negative. Hard to eat / taste food, with a glass in one hand and a sample in the other...HIGHLIGHTS;*Reedville Catering your Pork Bellies are to die for!!!* Skyway Bar & Grill had a very tasty Mac & Cheese...* Rusty Grape Vineyard, your "miss ruby razz cider" and apple cider are beyond delicious!!!* Churros Locos nothing but Yum, Yum, Yummy!!!* Lastly, I like to thank the only brewery in attendance, Stella Artois for the great FREE beer glasses. Sadly the line was SO LONG for the free glass engraving you offered. My feet were to tired to take advantage of your super offering...

Could have had the same experience going to Costco at 12pm on a Saturday for free samples. Incredibly large lines , packed like sardines. Food ran out by 7 at many vendors. But you actually paid to be here. Felt like a cash grab. This is a food and wine festival yet the only "real" food you had to pay for?? Could not even get enough wine to drown the sorrows of a rip off because of the lines. Avoid.

Fraud - very little food, long lines for everything else, too many people drinking whatever they could get their hands on, plus charges for coat check and real food. Vendors include time shares, retirement homes, and casinos, not as upscale as it pretends to be. Don't bother.

Went to this event for 2017, had high expectations from the images. I was a but disappointed, very limited wineries, as well as food options, crowd was a bit small. Long trek to the conference center it was held in. Smooth check in, validated ID. Could not decipher who or if there was a staff working the floor. With so many outstanding wineries in Oregon I expected alot more, extremely basic feel to the event.
