Featured In Best Places
A winner of the 2003 Wine Select Restaurant
Award
The Vintner's Inn is in a historic Prosser home that was to be torn down
and made into a parking lot. We purchased the house from Benton County
in August of 2000 and moved it to its present location next to the winery
in January of 2001. We've been remodeling ever since, and, after applying
several suitcases full of money, have opened to serve the public. We're
located in Prosser, WA in the center of the Yakima Valley convenient to
wineries, micro breweries, restaurants, and many tourist attractions.

Special Packages
Rates and Reservations
Our restaurant is open for
occasional Special Dining Events Dining
by reservation only . We think you'll find our
restaurant interesting and somewhat unique- here's the
way things work:
First, seating is boarding house style- i.e. we seat most guests
at large tables- so, you may well be dining with some folks you've
never met before. We have found that most people that visit wineries are
adventuresome types and find this a lot of fun, however, if you are
more of an introverted type and would feel uncomfortable in this setting,
you may wish to dine elsewhere.
Second, our special event menu is fixe prixe, that is
a set* seasonal, six course menu with a fixed price- Click
here for a sample menu or call
us at 1-800-727-6702 for the event schedule and menu
You'll find our dishes very flavorful as we use the freshest
of local produce, herbs, and ingredients, much directly from our garden-
if you're looking for a surf & turf style place, we ain't it. Call
or subscribe to our e-mail newsletter for a schedule of dinners.
*Please note that although the menu is fixed, we can accommodate
vegetarian and other dietary restrictions with ample advance notice.
Third, sometimes, our food is served family style
on large platters and you and your fellow diners may be passing plates
and platters.
Fourth, Your meal price usually includes a glass
wine with hors d'oeuvres, an entree wine' and a small glass
of dessert wine.
Fifth,- while we are a non-smoking establishment, we do encourage
those so inclined to light up a post-prandial cigar on the porch or under
our arbor, weather and constitution permitting- maybe accompanied
by one of our award winning ports -if you so desire- we'll even sell you
a stogie and try to join you! There are sort of two exceptions to this
rule and that is for are Fall and Winter Cigar Dinners- see our events
calendar for further details.
Sixth - Reservations may be secured with and may be charged to
your VISA, MasterCharge, or Discovercard and are not cancelable
without 48 hour advance notice. With less than 48 hours notice,
we will try to fill your reservation and refund your charges- subject to
a 20% cancellation fee. If we are unable to do so, you will be charged
the full amount.
