Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I bring my dog?
A: Yes! We love dogs at Shadow Ranch! We just ask that pets be kept on leash and off the furniture.
Q: Are you kid-friendly?
A: Yes! You can bring your children with you. However anyone under 21 is not permitted to sit at the bar and you are responsible for their supervision.
Q: Can I bring my own picnic?
A: Yes! You are welcome to enjoy your own outside food on the patio. But if you’re hungry and you forgot to bring a snack, we do offer charcuterie boards year-round and pizzas on Sundays in the summer.
Q: Do I need to make a reservation?
A: For certain events, such as food pairings, reservations are required so that we can best prepare to accomodate you. We certainly appreciate reservations for any other event or tasting you plan to attend, but we typically do not require them.
Q: What are your hours?
A: We are open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 11 am to 5 pm. Any additional open days will be listed on the Events Page of our website.
If you are only able to visit on a day we are not open, email us at info@shadowranch.com to inquire about an off-day appointment.
We are closed the last weekend of December for a holiday break.
