About
Here at the Cape May Winery, we pride ourselves on maintaining a family-owned and operated business that provides our customers with quality wines, exceptional service, and a relaxing atmosphere that makes everyone feel a part of our family after the first sip! The Cape May Winery’s journey began in 1989 with the planting of the first vines in Cape May County which started our Townbank Vineyard. Today, we grow 11 different varietals across 4 vineyards totaling 26 acres. As you can imagine, a lot has happened over the years! We invite you to be a part of our story during your next visit to Cape May and take a journey all your own through one of our tastings or tours. Wander through the many different rooms that make up the winery, explore our beautiful grounds, and and enjoy tapas from our kitchen all while discovering your own passion for wine. Cheers!

- lovetotravel560Arnold, Maryland776 contributionsGreat vineyard, winery and food not far from the ferry and Cape MayThis is a nice vineyard and winery not far from the beach. They have a nice seating area in the winter with a fireplace with a view of the vineyard. They have great wine and food. Service was excellent. Perfect place to stop at while stalling for our ferry to take us back to Lewes DE.Visited March 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten April 10, 2024
- DrDebbieFrance8 contributionsTerrific place with delicious wineI had an absolutely wonderful afternoon at the Cape May Winery. My charcuterie board with Serrano ham went deliciously with the Merlot. What a wonderful way to spend a sunny day with people you like. I’ll be back!Visited April 2024Traveled with friendsWritten April 20, 2024
- psudinoWeehawken, New Jersey4,433 contributionsVery good wine, but no more in-depth tour?My wife and I did an amazing tour of this winery 10+ years ago. The tour guide took us out into the fields, gave us an amazing education and then we had wine straight from the barrel as part of the education on how to taste the wine in progress. We went back recently and that tour is no longer offered. The winery has grown significantly, which is a good thing of course, and they have an excellent outdoor patio and the wine is still tasty. I just hate seeing something so fun and educational removed from the offerings. (Please correct me if I am wrong about that tour no longer being offered)Visited July 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten June 10, 2024
- Margaret KNorth Cape May, New Jersey1 contribution5 Stars for Food and Service at Wednesday Night Grill Night!I have gone to the Wednesday Grill Night 3 times this summer! Once with my California based daughter, once with my California based daughter and my Marton NJ daughter and once with my cousin. All three times the food was delicious, and the service was exceptional! I highly recommend if you want to experience an awesome night of food and music you buy a ticket to attend Grill Night. Believe me you will have a great time and a great dinner! Buy ahead of time as this is very popular, and you definitely want to get a seat for your special night out!Visited July 2024Traveled with familyWritten July 12, 2024

- Elaine SAyer, Massachusetts26 contributionsGreat Experience - Highly Recommend!My husband and I went to the Wednesday night grill night this past week while vacationing in Cape May. It was a wonderful evening; the weather was perfect, the setting beautiful and the food and service was great. The musician was just right as well; solo guitarist singing well known classics was the perfect background to a memorable experience.Visited August 2024Traveled with familyWritten August 18, 2024
- Rosanne T1 contributionA Summer TreatWe enjoy Grill Nights so much we always invite a friend or two to join us. The food is delicious, the scenery beautiful, the vibe relaxed and there is plenty of parking. No other place in Cape May compares.

I am EXTREMELY disappointed in this winery. I was with a group of women ages 27 and older. We had called ahead to ask how long the wait was and were spoken to very rudely and vaguely by the manager. When we got to the winery, we were again treated very poorly. We were understanding of the fact that we could not all sit together, so we asked politely if we could sit at the three open tables next to each other. She told us we could not use those and then reluctantly told us we could use 2 tables that were not even near each other. This is despite the fact that there were plenty of other open tables. We decided to leave, because we do not support businesses that meet potential paying customers so poorly. However, if you would like to go visit a LOVELY winery with beautiful scenery, friendly and accommodating staff, and delicious food, I would highly recommend Willow Creek Winery in Cape May!!

Beautiful vineyard, live music was really lovely.
We were a party of 12 but aware that they don’t accept parties of over 6, we were happy to split and sit at separate tables. We explained this to the lady that was seating us and she repeatedly told us they didn’t accept parties of 12. When we explained that we were in fact 2 parties of 6 she said there were no tables available- we then pointed out that there were several tables available. She told us to wait and then deliberately sat us at tables at separate ends of the vineyard, despite there being a few empty tables next to both. (We did try and book in advance, but whoever was dealing with emails was equally as rude and told us there was no room for 12 and that someone would be waiting in the parking lot to move us on. That’s why we came up with the solution of 2 parties of 6- even though the email reply itself was a massive red flag!)
There was also lipstick on the wineglass I received. When I raised this with the woman behind the bar she snatched it from me and gave me another glass with a ‘all better’ and no apology.
It’s a shame as there was also some really lovely staff that definitely added an extra star to my review.

Cape May Winery beyond exceeded my expeditions. It is a rustic gem buzzing with a lovely clientele and a hard working staff with lots of talent. My group of 8 women in our 40s had reserved a table in the wine cellar designated for larger groups. Lucky for us they decided to move us to the main room on this occasion and we sat at the fireplace and ordered food and red wine flights there. After half hour a musician started setting up to my surprise. I had not known live music was going to be played. The musician was amazing! We took turns ordering food in the room Nextdoor where you pick up food and wine to bring back to your table. They serve a tapas menu so we wanted to try everything. And we did! Some items we ordered 2 or 3 times because the food was of culinary perfection. The chef was outstanding. I’m a foodie and have to mention the food here is among the best in Cape May that I have had, hands down! I would not be able to say what my favorite plate was as they were all equally delicious. The only downside would be that your experience there is limited to an hour and a half and it was so enjoyable we would have wanted to stay all day! We were fully aware of this though as you cannot make a reservation without agreeing that you understand their policy. It is generally the same at every winery so no surprise there. The dining room wasn’t full until we were leaving and did get to stay longer and enjoyed a second flight and more tapas! I cannot wait to go back and take my husband next time!

Agree with the last few reviews- rude staff. At least one particular person. Not family friendly. I would’ve appreciated if they said “no kids allowed,” but instead allowed them to come in, with hesitation, and proceeded to bark strict rules about all the things they’re not allowed to do, such as eat “outside food” like goldfish crackers. Even the nicest of restaurants allow toddlers to eat goldfish crackers to help keep them occupied and calm. If her delivery was nicer, we would’ve been much more understanding. We got up and left in frustration with her before getting the chance to even order any wine and she was clearly pleased about this. I will add that my toddlers were extremely well behaved and quiet since entering the establishment. Will not give them our business in the future.

Great spot on a nice day. We enjoyed flights here on warm day- the whites were excellent. The patio area offers great outdoor seating. The tapas offered were good as well. The only issue was the noise from the construction going on on site. We didn’t stay too long because of it.

The grill night on July 6 was fabulous. The chicken and salmon were perfectly cooked and of course the Mac and cheese is so good. We enjoyed our meal with a bottle of Albariño. Completed our meal with the best strawberry shortcake. Great job chef Mike and crew!
The entire staff at the Cape May Winery is always welcoming and friendly and do everything to make our experience a great time.

There were 4 of us & we all had the tastings. It is a beautiful setting. The tasting were only $10 each which was a good price. The gentleman that poured our tastings actually talked about each one & how it was made. This was a nice change from other wineries we have visited. The wine was very good & I would go back there again.

My husband, daughter, and I had the WORST experience at Cape May Winery. The wine was tasty but the environment was chaotic and the servers were rude. We were instructed upon entering to get in line for the wine tasting which we did. Seating was crowded, but we found seats on nearby couches. We were enjoying our wine flights when one of the staff members very rudely told us that we could not sit on the couches and told us to move. She scolded us for not following proper seating instructions when entering (which we were never given). The staff member was offensive and would not help us navigate seating rules. We promptly left and will not return.

We have been visiting for years. During the fair weather months the outdoor experience is very nice. Since this visit was December we were indoors. We visited on a Saturday when there was live music. We did not participate in a tasting this visit, but rather just ordered some of the available wines and enjoyed the company of our friends. Pleasant and friendly staff. Ample onsite parking. Really good wines.

The grounds were lovely and if you like wineries I would recommend that you stop here. It was a good experience. My only complaint is that the 2 couples next to us were annoyingly loud and the one lady in particular would not stop talking. It was funny because we are from Missouri and we heard her say something about someone who was moving to Missouri or Montana as if these places have anything in common besides the name that starts with M Ha.

Yes. Not sure if they have happy hour but they do have a menu and serve food all day.

The directions (below) are on the site - you need to get to the Garden State Parkway: From the Garden State Parkway
At mile marker 0, bear right on 109 North. Follow 9 South (Taking Jug Handle after the Jersey Cape Motel). Cross Railroad Tracks then at the next light at Seashore Rd. make a right. At the Next traffic light make a left at Townbank Road. The Winery is about 1/2 mile down on the right.
