Brooklyn West Review

We can t say enough about Stu and the rest of the team at Brooklyn West. A fantastic atmosphere, great customer service, and some of the best wines you ll ever taste. After just a few minutes chatting with staff, it became clear that an unbelievable amount of care and attention goes into every bottle they make. These folks truly care about their craft and it shows in what you taste in your glass. If you re a wine lover, this is a place not to be missed.

Went here awhile back when visiting a friend who lives near this "winery". The ambience was a bit sterile and not very warm or welcoming like I would have preferred and the seating wasn't very comfortable. Came here to catch up with my friend but the person who handles the wine tasting just talked incessantly (seems like other reviewers share a similar sentiment). Overall the wine was decent but seemed a bit overpriced for the quality. Definitely better places to get drinks in the Jack London neighborhood.

Delicious wines, I'll definitely be back! Stuart was very informative and a super nice guy.

Brooklyn West is a premier urban winery along Oakland's Urban Wine Trail. It is located in an awesome historical building. Stu and Jeff, winemaker and owners, are friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. The wine, however, is the star of the show! A great selection of whites and reds that are delicious up and down the menu.

Really great customer service. Great wines. Board games available.

Best wines around!!
All good but recommended to try the Pinots and the port in particular.

Great winery with a very nice personal attention from the wine makers. Excellent wine!

Very delicious wine and informative staff. Made me n my group feel welcomed and leaving informed.

I and some friends stopped by here to relax and try some wines. We found ourselves being over-educated by Stew, the winemaker. We were unable to even attempt to enjoy anything he poured as he talked so much it became so uncomfortable we made our visit as quick as possible and departed. It was more like a forced class to learn about wine told by a very talkative Stew who may have some knowledge but does not know when to stop talking and let a person breathe.The wine was just ok as well, and not worth the price. I have enjoyed better wine from a store or bar. Nothing we tasted was worthy of recommendation.
