Where to Sip Wine & Spirits in Oregon’s Basecamp
Much like Redmond itself, the city’s wine and spirits scene is unpretentious, creative, and quietly thriving. Local vintners, distillers, and mixologists take their craft seriously, and serve up delicious and complex libations in tasting rooms, open-air patios, and cozy bars all across the region.
There’s a lot worth trying here, so let’s take a look at some of the more notable standouts.
Wineries
Hope, Faith & Charity Vineyards
70450 NW Lower Valley Dr, Terrebonne
Daily: 12 PM–5 PM
Set on 312 acres with sweeping views of the Three Sisters, this vineyard keeps its focus on the land and the experience. Varieties like Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Maréchal Foch grow exceptionally well here, producing clean, balanced wines. Wood-fired pizza, regular live music, and ample space to gather, roam, or relax make this a perfect destination for everything from a large gathering to an intimate date.
Maragas Winery
15523 SW Hwy 97, Culver
Wed–Sun: 11:30 AM–5 PM; Closed Mon & Tue
One of Central Oregon’s oldest wineries, Maragas is known for estate-grown grapes and Old-World-style wines. The winemaking is hands-on and rooted in traditional methods, including hand-harvesting and on-site fermentation. The tasting room offers a rustic bohemian feel that is both welcoming and lived-in, with a lineup of blends you won’t find anywhere else.
Distilleries & Cocktail Spots
Gompers Distillery and Speakeasy
611 NE Jackpine Ct #8
Fri: 4 PM–1 AM; Sat: 3 PM–7 PM

Wayfarer Club
525 SW 6th St (inside SCP Redmond Hotel)
General hours: 3 PM–9 PM; varies by day
Wayfarer is a cocktail bar with a focused menu of well-executed small plates. Tucked just off the SCP Redmond Hotel lobby, it draws a steady mix of locals and guests. The space is sleek and comfortable, and the knowledgeable bar staff is always ready with suggestions to suit your appetite.
Pangaea Guild Hall
652 SW 6th St
General hours: 7 AM–10 PM; varies by day; Closed Mon
The Pangaea Guild Hall is a one-of-a-kind destination that’s a little eclectic and a little offbeat. In other words, unmistakably Redmond. It brings together character, coffee, cocktails, food, and games in one easygoing space that welcomes locals, travelers, and gamers alike.
Brickhouse
412 SW 6th St
Daily: 4 PM–9 PM
Known for its polished bar lineup as much as its menu, Brickhouse is one of Redmond’s most refined spots for a drink. The cocktail list leans classic and pairs naturally with Prime steaks and wild-caught seafood. Comfortable booths, a welcoming atmosphere, and an award-winning wine list make it a standout for both dinner and drinks.
Tasting Rooms & Wine Bars
Beyond The Vine
427 SW 8th St
General hours: 3 PM–8 PM; varies by day; Closed Sun & Mon
Beyond The Vine is a low-key wine bar with a changing list of flights and glasses, pulling from both regional and imported producers. The space is relaxed, with indoor seating, a wrap-around patio, and a small food menu that pairs well with each pour.
Testimony Wine Bar
307 NW 6th St
General hours: 2 PM–9 PM; varies by day; Closed Tues
With small producers, rotating flights, and over 400 bottles to choose from, Testimony lets you expand your palate without feeling out of your depth. The focus is heavily local, but the offerings stretch beyond the Northwest, with a thoughtful mix of wine, beer, and cider to suit every taste at the table.
The Final Sip
Redmond’s wine bars and cocktail spots carry the region’s character in spaces that feel both welcoming and distinct; patios, rooftops, and tasting rooms that offer their own view of the high desert and the people who make it home.
