Pretty bizarre start. The guy who sat us was rude and suspicious from the moment he saw us. Idk if it was the way we were dressed but we were on a motorcycle if that says anything. He says to pick a seat on the patio so I asked if there was a spot they’d prefer and he was rude about that too even though his explanation that yes they do have a preference was exactly why I asked. The married couple who sat next to us shortly after left quickly, seemed like they’d be a delight at parties and would probably get along really well with the first guy.

Keep in mind that the restrooms are outside of the restaurant and downstairs from the main lobby. A bit of a hike to get there. lol.

Apparently there was some argument over who would get the short straw and take care of us until this absolute OG server came in and handled business. The other servers look like they hate their lives.

Ours was a true delight though and very good at his job. Completely made up for his co-workers’ shenanigans. His service is impeccable. I didn’t catch his name but he’s a silver fox!

We didn’t have any issues with the wine selection being unavailable, as other reviewers stated, but we did both choose US wines just by chance. I don’t know if that matters.

Food was awesome. We demolished the charcuterie board or plate. Whatever the smaller one is called on the menu. It was a struggle to finish between 2 people but we did it. Haha. Probably one of the best charcuterie I’ve ever had tbh.

The cheesecake is delicious perfection. Holy smokes. So good. Definitely do not skip if you like cheesecake and cherries.

I’ll be back for sure!

217 Wine Bar was amazing. We enjoyed an appetizer and prosecco. They have a wide selection of wines to choose from. The service was terrific and the setting is spectacular. The views outside the windows were breathtaking. I was impressed with how reasonable the cost was. They have an old piano and other fun artifacts. I can’t wait to return.

We love this wine bar, but just be aware it can be a little pricy. Their charcuterie boards are my favorite in Estes Park (the Charc Bite can feed four easily) and are sooo good! If you order the 217 wine ($120 a bottle) you can decorate the bottle and be immortalized in the Stanley as the bottle is displayed on shelf’s in the wine bar. The atmosphere is great and they have live music on some nights. If you’re not a wine lover you can order local beers. Huge fan of the 217 and the Cabernet!

My wife and I were at the Stanley for a concert this past weekend, and we spent a few hours here before the show. We shared a bottle of prosecco and a couple cocktails, plus one appetizer throughout the afternoon, before the show. The staff was excellent and it was a great setting for a date or with friends, or even just talking to others staying at the hotel. We’ll definitely be back.

Great atmosphere there are some charcuterie options, decent wine options, and yummy wine cocktails. There are two outdoor areas so if it’s nice weather take advantage of those views. This is separate from the hotel bar and restaurant, so you can’t get those signature cocktails. This area is also 21 and up only, keep in mind if you have kids.

The hummus trio is delicious and there’s lots of wine selections depending on your preference. I was excited to see they had a Spanish Albarino, which was delightful. We can’t beat the views or the atmosphere!

This is such a beautiful spot, great wine selections with reasonable prices. While the charcuterie boards are a little pricey, they did have a wide selection and generous portions of meats, cheeses, fruits, etc. My only wish is that this spot accepted reservations, but if you can get a table, totally worth the visit. The staff were friendly, professional, and helpful with recommendations!

This wine bar, located in The Stanley Hotel, is fantastic. It offers plenty of seating with spectacular views that enhance the experience. We ordered a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon along with a charcuterie board, and both were excellent. The staff was amazing making our visit even more enjoyable. I would definitely return for another great evening!

My best friend and I come to Estes every year at least twice. We ALWAYS come to the wine bar and Cascades several times each time we are in town. It has always been amazing and wonderful with superb service. This year, however, that was not the case. We ordered shrimp cocktail, which we have ordered several other times there. When our waiter brought it out, immediately the presentation looked different than it had before. The cocktail sauce looked very dark and the horse radish looked and tasted like Dijon mustard. As we ate it, we both said the cocktail sauce tasted like bbq sauce. We mentioned this to our waiter and he said it’s always been that. We ate a couple more, and it tasted awful so we sent it back. When we told the waiter, his response was, “Well, it looks like you’ve almost eaten the whole thing”. We again said we wanted to send it back. Soon after, the manager, Georgia, along with the waiter, came to our table asking us what was wrong. We told her. Georgia then proceeded to literally argue back and forth with us saying that the shrimp cocktail sauce was the same as it had always been. It was absolutely not! Every time I would say it was not the same, Georgia would say “yes it is” and that went back and forth several times. What manager does that? EXTREMELY rude and unprofessional. Then we noticed a table off 6 girls beside us. They ordered a bottle of wine from Georgia. The glasses came out dirty and smelly and so they mentioned that to Georgia. Georgia clearly got annoyed and offended and grabbed the glasses to take them back. One of the girls was trying to apologize to Georgia after Georgia reacted. When Georgia came back with the 6 glasses, she had rinsed them off but did not wipe them down to get all the water off so they were dropping with water on the inside and outside of ask of the glasses. All of the girls at the table looked dumbfounded.

We have never had bad service or die staff one single time at the stanley. Seems like the new management has a lot of things that need improvement, and in my opinion, the first change that needs to be made is getting rid of Georgia. She is rude, unprofessional, disheveled looking, and rough around the edges. They need to rethink employing someone like that
