Tipple and Ramble

This wine bar has such a beautifully decorated outdoor sitting area, the vibes are immaculate! Emma made sure my friends and I had everything we needed. They have a great selection of delicious wines (we had a local white form Santa Barbara), and I highly recommend the cheese platter! I also left my hat there and Emma was kind enough to ship back to my house :).

Lovely find! Very cozy and stylish venue, with a refined vibe. The backyard is very impressive. Cheese selection was great with freshly toasted bread. Staff quite friendly too.

Tipple and Ramble is a neighborhood oasis. It’s quaint and charming with the food and service to match. They have a good wine and cheese selection, and great indoor and outdoor seating options. It’s a gem in Ojai, just a few blocks off the main road. We ended up buying wine and habanero apricot jam to take with us. All around great experience.

Such a beautiful cute little place! The drink menu is not large but they still have a great selection. Empanadas! Yes, they have an empanada menu and we tried every single one. Delicious! They're small. Our party of 6 ordered 2 of each, split in half and enjoyed the variety. Several seating areas. All super cute! Absolutely loved this spot, I'm a fan!

We went there for lunch while we were in Ojai celebrating my daughter's birthday. I was disappointed in the menu. It was mainly expensive charcuterie boards & empanadas. It was more like having a snack than lunch. In our group of 12, 3 don't drink alcohol. There was a sparse amount of non-alcoholic choices that included San Pelegrino sparkling water. I paid $35.00 for a board of snacks. While we waited for or charcuterie boards. The server brought our drinks & didn't know who ordered what. She brought an orange juice drink that apparently was supposed to be a substitute for San Pelegrino. When we asked about the San Pelegrino sparkling water, she brought a different brand of sparkling water to one of person in our party, however 2 of us ordered San Pelegrino. The service was slow. A couple members of our party left to pick up tacos to eat at a wine tasting where we had reservations. We had to take our snacks to go. Tipple and Ramble is a small family business that didn't have the staff to handle the number of customers that arrived that day.

Nestled in the picturesque town of Ojai, Tipple and Ramble is a hidden gem that has quickly become a favorite haunt for wine enthusiasts and foodies alike. The charcuterie board is a masterpiece, boasting a variety of artisanal cheeses, meats, and condiments that complement the wine beautifully. Empanadas. Don't miss their mouthwatering empanadas, bursting with flavor and paired perfectly with dipping sauces. Tipple and Ramble is a must-visit in Ojai, offering an unforgettable blend of wine, charcuterie, and empanadas in a cozy atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for wine enthusiasts and foodies alike.

First time to Ojai. So excited to find this sweet little spot. Wine was delicious, charcuterie was generous and the patio was picturesque!

Beatiful little place to get a drink and a light snack. They have a comfy little outdoors area with seating and self serve water. Not a place to go to fill up, rather a place to sip, munch and let your problems wash away. Dog friendly so bring your pup.

Love love love this place!! So cute and fun it fits the vibe for Ojai. Amazing food, pizza sundays and wine! Highly recommend coming whenever you're in ojai. I love the funky decor, the comfortable and inviting atmosphere, phenomenal service, choices for the wine (they will help narrow down the selection) I always go for a tasting when possible! But don't sleep on the Sundays pizza it's worth the drive alone! Definitely add to the list for a meet up, a date, girls night, a spot to bring family and friends for all to enjoy. I'll try to find photos of all of food we ordered!

I absolutely loved this wine bar. Good wine - Good service and recommendations for wine Adorable outdoor seating Variety of wine Excellent empanada Drool worthy charcuterie boards I'm not sure what else you would need. Make sure to check out this place if you visit Ojai

This was our first stop on our self-guided wine tasting tour when visiting the town, and it was definitely one of the top three. We came here right when they opened so we didn't expect it to be busy. We tried a glass of chardonnay here and it was great. Cutest spot in town, I just wish it wasn't hidden in the side streets. They have a really cute patio with such a beautiful set up. Only issue for me was parking. We parked on the streets and walked to the place not sure if they have a parking lot.

Rode our bikes here with dog in tow. Perfectly chill outdoor space for snacks and a glass of wine. Loved that our pup was able to join us with no stress. Such a great place to chat and unwind on a nice day. Nice wine selection and cheese plates.

Don't bother coming here. Came with a party of 6. Asked about seating outside and their response was "What you get is what you have". We paid with cash and asked to break a 20 so we can tip them and response was "you took all our cash". If you have a group of 6 expect only 5 cups for water, 3 plates, 1 napkin, and one set of silverware for a charcuterie board and empanadas. When we asked for more plates or napkins, server always rolled his eyes told us "the napkins are over here" even though they never mentioned it the whole time we were there. Only reason why they got a 2 star was the wine. $35 dollar charcuterie board was lacking.

Service was great! They don't do wine tastings, but we were able to try some before choosing to get a glass. The wines weren't amazing or extraordinary, but they tasted pretty okay. The outdoor seating area is great! Lots of space, and the tables are organized so you still have some privacy to talk to whoever you're with. They even have a container of umbrellas to shade yourself from the sun. Overall, it was a decent experience.

LOVE this place! I came here on a Thursday around 4 with my husband before we headed to dinner and I am very happy we did! TR is located amongst a quiet neighborhood, so it's not something you would just happen to drive by. The place has quite a few options; ranging from a wonderful Rose, to Mexican Coke (non-alcoholic) to Beer (there is also food and even a small shop in the back!). Someone mentioned that food is only on the weekends, however I think you can at least get a cheeseboard on the weekdays (at least what I saw someone eating). The atmosphere is overall very relaxing! You have your choice from outside or inside seating. We grabbed a couple of comfy chairs in the back and just enjoyed the delicious Rose Chateau Leoube $14 and the Pinot Trail Marker Wine $16, the red was light and not overly sweet or heavy. Unfortunately we only had time for one drink... so I think we need to come back for more!

Loved the Santa Ynez white blend. Their patio is a gorgeous little oasis with a great drink and snack menu. We opted to stay indoors because of the heat but it was still great for a quick drink and chat.

Stumbled upon this gem of a spot via Yelp! So happy we did. The service and ambiance were phenomenal. We will be back!

FYI: It appears that they only serve food on weekends, Friday-Sunday (per their website, although you have to click "menu" to find that info and they could do a better job clarifying on the main page). Plan accordingly. A hidden slice of magic. Located behind an unassuming residential house. There's a sign in the front but it looks like a relatively normal house. Once you walk through the gate... you enter an entirely new world. I had no idea this was a décor shop until afterward, when I checked their website. I did not notice an entrance into the shop so it may be closed due to Covid. However, their patio is open for food/drink with limited hours. ATMOSPHERE: Amazing. Mediterranean vibes. Beautiful furniture, gorgeous plants, and lovely outdoor lights. It's one of the most photogenic patios I've ever visited. DRINKS: It's a wine bar so they have a variety of wine options. I had a wine spritzer made with local pixie tangerines. It was excellent! FOOD: You order at the outdoor camper (not sure if this is a Covid improvisation or if it's there all the time). We ordered a cheeseboard, which was fantastic. We didn't get to pick the cheeses but it came with Manchego, Brie, and some sort of goat cheese. The Manchego was surprisingly good. I've had Manchego in the past and wasn't impressed but they made a convert out of me. I even enjoyed the goat cheese, which I'm usually not a fan of. Excellent quality. The bread that accompanied the cheese was also amazing. Warm and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. I'm drooling again! Finally, we ordered a chicken empanada -- it was soooooooo good. Superb filling, tasty shell. Just blew me away. Do not hesitate to eat here! SERVICE: Very friendly and quick. PARKING: Pretty easy to find on the street. Free -- Ojai is cool like that.

We arrived on new year's eve for a break from the car. With the rainy day the place was empty, but the two people working were immediately warm and welcoming when we walked in. The indoor seating area is like a cozy and friendly home and the outdoor seating area looked really nice with lots of cute umbrellas, for plenty of shaded areas, surrounded by a luscious garden. Because of the rain, we decided to camp out in a nook with two cozy armchairs. The smell of the small bites they offered was tempting, but we didn't end up ordering anything to eat. They have a great wine list and a surprisingly good beer list for those who don't love wine. We definitely would recommend a visit here for the colorful atmosphere, friendly staff, and terrific options for drinks. *Pro tip - read the drink specials before ordering. I ordered a glass of wine before noticing their incredible drink specials. I would have definitely tried their seasonal take on an Aperol spritz.

Perfect place to grab a drink and relax! Lots of wine and food options. Tons of outdoor seating, lots of shade. Hope to come back soon!

I think this pace could be amazing with some small tweaks here and there! Went here on a quiet Wednesday evening and had practically the whole place to ourselves. Had a great bottle of wine and yummy well designed cheese plate from a very kind young man working. With that being said, for such a cute outdoor space it was unkept and a bit sad feeling. Some music, additional lighting for ambiance and a good leaf blowing throughout would do this place wonders. You guys have potential to be a hot spot!

One can say that I'm a habitual consumer of wine, beer, and alcohol. It definitely allows me to open up and become a bit more social. Tipple & Ramble is a place where I can do both - and a great name for a gem of a place. Tipple & Ramble offers a great selection of wine, with a few options of beer + spritzers! You can start off and begin your day drinking adventures here, or finish off the day relaxing in the back patio. Take a load off, grab a drink, and take cover from the sun under the canopy trees. You'll appreciate that you made the slight detour off the main strip! Whatever your strategy, it definitely should include a visit. If you're in need of a small bite to balance the buzz, they offer a small selection of tasty bites. The savory empanadas or their sandwiches hit the spot! *secret tip. Stop by two houses over and check out the small Art Gallary - Canvas + Paper. It's free to the public.

Extremely cute and cozy place to come chill and have wine and charcuterie.. Would have given them 5 stars but I am afraid of spiders and there are webs everywhere outside. Just get the webs off everything and this would be perfect!

T&R was listed as one of the best bars in America in Esquire and it intrigued me. I've been to some of the other entries in previous years and this one seemed different. I decided to dedicate a weekend to come up and try it out. So, Tipple & Ramble is off the main commercial drag and in a quiet residential area. On weekdays it's a home goods store but the weekends they open up the backyard area and serve wine, beer and some non-alcoholic options. They have a good selection of beers, perfect for summer drinking. I'm not a wine fan so I can't comment on their selection but I can talk about their food. It's simple but really straight forward. The charcuterie board is...beautiful. It's presented well, even with the to-go packaging they've had to use and it's just as tasty as it looks. On Saturdays they have empanadas, they're five bucks good sized and for five bucks, an easy choice. I make the trip there at least once a month, in the hopes that I'll be recognized, but really because it's such a nice place to relax.

Loved tipple and ramble a beautiful oasis off the beaten path in Ojai. Enjoyed a lovely rosé and the empanadas were delicious a magical setting to be sure!

Cute wine bar + small home goods shop in Ojai - definitely a must stop in! The staff was really helpful as we selected our wine choice. The charcuterie is pretty premium, but it's massive and instagrammable! The food menu, in general, is pretty limited but it does the trick for a snack/afternoon fill-up! The patio space is definitely the selling point - ample seating with lots of lounge areas/tables & dog friendly. As we were enjoying our wine & charcuterie, there was a couple taking engagement(?) photos so speaks to the vibe and cute decor here!

This wine bar has such a beautifully decorated outdoor sitting area, the vibes are immaculate! Emma made sure my friends and I had everything we needed. They have a great selection of delicious wines (we had a local white from Santa Barbara), and I highly recommend the cheese platter! I also left my hat there and Emma was kind enough to ship back to my house, as we were visiting from Los Angeles.

Tipple & Ramble is absolutely perfect. I've been there on both of my trips to Ojai and both times I was blown away. It's such a perfect outdoor space! It's so cute and relaxing. I love it. It's definitely one of my favorite places to get drinks. Not just in Ojai but anywhere haha This last time we got to try their food and got a cheese board. It was so good! The cheese was delicious and I love that it came with fresh bread instead of crackers. Hopefully I'll do another trip soon to Ojai so I can stop by Tipple & Ramble :)

While in Ojai I pulled up Yelp and put in the city with 'Best Drinks' and this spot came up first with solid 5 star reviews. I had no idea what to expect, but when we walked into the patio I was pleasantly surprised at the outdoor ambiance. It's lovely! The perfect spot for us to check our emails, return calls and just relax with a small snack before we getting on the road and heading home. When we arrived, we walked straight to the large menu board that's near the airstream you order from. They serve your drinks from there and your food arrives later at your table. We ordered a bottle of their Rose and a cheese board, they have charcuterie, & Mediterranean spreads as well along with rotating small plates. The patio was peaceful, they were playing Macy Gray's entire album while we happened to be there, it was great! One thing I noticed is the noise level is super low, almost as if everyone was respecting the peace that's felt here. You select your own table with your drink and just chill. Our cheese board was so good and our rose was refreshing. Beautiful grounds, only open Friday- Sunday. Street parking nearby. No reservations.

A wine bar featuring style over quality. The cute patio setting was good for delighting those who care about such fashionable things. Just lay back and chill which seems to suit the locals. Perhaps Ojai should be Osojai because we encountered people all over town that were "oh so high" on pot. The short wine list contained decent wines that lacked depth but nothing exceptional. $16 price per glass wasn't justified by the quality of the wine but the ample pour size help placate this problem. We didn't try the cheese and charcuterie boards but a $6 empanada as a pre-dinner snack. The empanada fillings offered rotate but only three of the five were available by the time we visited. Provided by an outside vendor, it's good to know they are unlikely serving leftovers because they run out. We passed on the vegetarian options for a pork and potato empanada that had a tasty crust but the filling was light on seasoning. I'm confused that Yelp categorizes this place as a "home decor" store. Or maybe I was also "oh so high" and just didn't notice any housewares for sale.

Super cute spot! Wish they were open more days of the week! We didn't stay here long, as we had other places on our itinerary, but I think we probably should have enjoyed more time on their expansive patio in the back! This place is on a side street off the main part of downtown Ojai, but you feel miles away in a luxurious backyard! Music playing, an old-school style camping trailer that served as a bar and where you placed your order (during COVID times), and super friendly service, as I always have lots of questions! We almost tried some of their food, but didn't, as we had dinner plans; again, kind of wish we did. Discovered an amazing dry sparkling Albariño, Carboniste. Would definitely spend time here in the future!

We had a fantastic evening here sipping pinot noir and noshing on a vegan platter. The staff was fantastic and the house that's been converted into this cute little wine-tasting room is amazing. We sat outside and basked in the cool evening air. A wonderful experience!

Tipple & Ramble offers a supper chill vibe while sipping drinks on their large back patio. Wish we could have stayed a bit longer but we had other stops that day. The service was very friendly and helpful with selecting a sparkling and beer. There was a small amount of food options on the outside chalkboard since we were there in the early side. Definitely worth a stop.

Our favorite bohemian spot to have some wine, bubbles and a bite. Lovely outside area with lots of comfortable seating and music. Palm trees and lights strung from the trees with a cute retro trailer in the back. Definitely stop by for a glass and relax....

Stumbling upon Tipple and Ramble may have been the best accident I've ever made. The venue is gorgeous in and out, with a décor that I cannot describe but that *perfectly* suits the atmosphere, while I was there, many others were simply taking pictures of everything, awestruck. The staff is amazing, Emma was working at the front and she was incredibly kind and knowledgeable, offering recommendations and double-checking things with the kitchen staff. I ended up having a chilled red Grenache that was phenomenal, and my partner enjoyed her sparkling rose. They had nibbles like cheese boards that a table next to us got, looked amazing, but we tried the specials. Apparently they change seasonally, but the toast and salad that we ordered were great. The chef that brought the food out to us was nice, and looking for any criticism we might have for his food, but we had none at all. We will be coming back next time we're in Ojai.

Very fun hole in the wall find! And I'm an Ojai local! The drinks are great and the empanadas are delicious! I loved the mushroom. I wish you got more for you dollar - but nice for a tasty treat if you're willing to splurge a bit for a fun date night or afternoon with your friends. The setting is really creative and beautiful. They did a great job with the outside.

Tucked away from the Main street is the cutest little patio at Tipple & Ramble. Perfect space for safely spending a couple hours sipping wine, beer or hard kombucha. The seating is very eclectic and cute (great for IG pics) and the environment is happy and mellow. *Highly recommend* the cheeseboard! Comes with a very healthy amount of burrata and bread.

Fun place with plenty of seating. Could offer more food choices. But I've will definitely be coming back.

Fun place. We have been here several times. Drinks and food are great too. The staff are all so nice! We will be back. Thanks!

We live close... always wondered about this place. Happened to stop in today. All employees were more interested in their phones/social media than providing us service. Had a drink and left.... not one of the 3 girls looked up from their phones... and we were the only people in the place. Will not go back

My wife and I were looking for a place to stop and have a drink before dinner and happened upon Tipple & Ramble. We walked from our hotel and I was pleasantly surprised when we walked up to the place. It's decor inside and out are comforting and the place makes you feel like you're at home or at a family members home. I can't tell you how comfortable and at ease we felt while there. Be aware they have a guard dog who is as sweet and adorable as can be. I really felt like home there. Can't wait to go back.

Tipple & ramble is such a gem! The space is beautiful, shady and so relaxing. We ordered hard cider, a cheese plate, empanadas, and toast. Cheese plate: it was gorgeous. My favorite part of it was the onion jam and the olives. So unique and delicious. tomato toast: freshest, juicy tomatoes! Burst of flavor in your mouth. I enjoyed the red onions and the herbed cheese on the perfectly crisp toast. The empanadas were good. We had the beef empanada and the corn empanada. The crust was delicious, but the chimichurri really brought it together. Always a favorite when I'm Ojai.

Absolutely loved this place!! Heaven away from Heaven I don't usually leave reviews, but I would highly recommend if you're looking for something low key to disconnect and find PEACE & TRANQUILITY

Wait staff was rude and unwelcoming. Unwelcoming of nursing mothers but otherwise a cute spot for a drink.

Fantástico. Very cute place to have a drink. Loved sitting outside with a nice cold beer.

This is primarily a wine & beer drinking spot with a nice relaxing patio. On weekends they serve finger foods and charcuterie, so I was looking forward to having lunch here on a Sunday. I guess I showed up too late for Ojai time, because they had run out of food by 1pm. I'm not sure if this a usual thing to happen @ Tipple & Ramble due to their Yelp popularity, but maybe keep an alternative in mind if you're planning on eating here.

Cute decor', theme, and had a fun vibe. Nice place to relax with a glass of wine. We sat outside and they have a food truck, but no one was in it. If you're a big Wino and are just there to try the wine, it may be a pass. I wasn't overly thrilled with there Rose' I had heard great things about it from other people but personally I was not a fan of their wine. The store is cute, people were nice, and overall a fun stop if you're touring the area for a cute local Ojai hole in the wall place.

This place is a MUST visit when in Ojai! It is the cutest wine bar ever with an amazing charcuterie board. The baguettes were a perfect combination of crunchy and soft and the onion jam was too die for! They play really chill music so it feels super relaxing. Staff is really friendly! Also they have some items for sale next to the restroom such as picnic baskets, charcuterie boards, and cheese knives so make sure to check it out.

Friendly wait staff serving in a fun, cozy, outdoor garden area. A little out of downtown Ojai, but worth the visit.

Seriously a hidden gem in downtown Ojai nestled in a neighborhood. It's such a cute and cozy boutique that offers small plates, cheese & charcuterie board, wine, beer, and non alcoholic beverages. I was in Ojai for a quick daycation getaway with my boyfriend to have a relaxing weekend away from the city life. The girl helping us at the counter was very sweet and helpful. She was nice enough to let us sample some wines before we purchased a bottle to have out on the patio. The inside shop is very cute but the items are pretty pricey for picnic and kitchen items. The outside patio reminds me of Palm springs boho deco with a nice ambiance of relaxing and peaceful vibe to it. The decor is on point and the french music just makes you feel like your chilling in someone's backyard for a BBQ. It where you come unwind for Sunday Funday with girlfriends or friends over good drinks and food. We ordered 2 bottles of Rose and munched on these amazing truffle potatoes chips imported from Spain called Torres, and lastly ordered cheese & charcuterie board with 2 cheese & 3 meats. They make these housemade nut bread that they give you with your charcuterie board that are too die for!!!! Details on cheese and charcuterie board picks: ***Cheese: st agur blue cheese & explorateur brie ***Charcuterie: spanish style chorizo, soppressata spiced italian sausage, smoked proscuitto pate (there is probably a name for it, but I just don't know it. Ask the waiter)

While the food and ambiance at Tipple and Ramble are excellent, I was disappointed with the service. We had to remind the wait person that we hadn't received our food and drinks. When we were finally served, the order was wrong. Naturally that delayed order again. When it came time to pay, there were no apologies for less than ideal service or even just plain "Thank You!" Again, food was good and the atmosphere fun, but it wasn't enough to make up for the lousy service. No worries though; there are plenty of other restaurants in Ojai to enjoy! One last thought for the owner of Tipple & Ramble... It has been my experience that no matter how good the food is at a restaurant, people always remember how they were treated. I'm hoping that other patrons received better service than we did!

A couple of blocks from the beaten track, Tipple and Ramble is a nice place to sit back, relax, and have some wine. The shop is bright, airy, and very casual. On the Saturday afternoon we were there, there were only a few people. We didn't eat, but the smells from the kitchen smelled amazing. The staff is very friendly. There isn't a *ton* of stuff in the shopping area itself, but it was nice to peruse their goods.

Ok wow. This was our FAVORITE spot in Ojai. It is seriously the cutest setting with lots of grammable spots with those big red umbrellas and such cute decor ;) we also loved the vintage trailer in the back, which is where you order food & drinks from. They also play great music, so it is simply just the best place to chill out for a few hours and drink wine. It does close a little bit on the early side (but most things do in Ojai) like around 8pm I think, so I would def recommend coming in the afternoon! We got a bottle of sauv blanc which they gave us an ice bucket for, along with a couple bites to eat. I think they have some stuff (charcuterie boards) permanently but part of their food options is a rotating menu. When we went a few weeks back, they had these toasts and empanadas. Omg we couldn't believe how good they were!!!! So delish. Def get some food if you come here to have with your wine! All the servers were so awesome. We asked if they had any games (I had read that in another review), and a server managed to find a deck of cards for us and some other games. They were really nice! Can't wait to come back here on our next visit to Ojai!

Great atmosphere, delicious drinks. Service can be slower depending on number of staff, but it's Ojai, slowing down is what you are supposed to do!

Tipple & Ramble is a hidden gem in a residential area of Ojai. We came for Mother's Day and it was the absolute perfect spot! The patio is ADORABLE with all kinds of seating, bright colors, and tons of plants! Great selection of wine, beer, and nibbles. There is also a lovely little shop with all kinds of kitchen and bar wares. We had the sparkling rosé, a pinot noir, and a delicious charcuterie board that looked just as beautiful as it tasted. Our board included a homemade pistachio and dried fruit bread that was out of this world delicious. The birds were chirping, the sun was shining, and the Jasmine was blooming as we sipped our wine and enjoyed our charcuterie. The few hours we spent there flew by. Will definitely be back.

This place is so cute with a wonderful little market space and very good wine and food. I suggest stopping by for a light lunch or afternoon snack. My boyfriend and I both got a different glass of white (it was hot out) and split a charcuterie board. Everything was delicious. The market has some wonderful, beautiful, and unique wares. They are a bit on the expensive side, but appear to be of very good quality. Very nice staff and not crowded which was nice. Will definitely go back!

Little gem in Ojai! This little wine spot was too cute not stop in and check out. Ended up ordering some good wine and delicious food. Plenty of seating and and adult only area. They have games, a little shop and friendly staff. We ordered pizza and a charcuterie board, which was amazing. This is a great place for couples or a night out with friends.
