Blooms Winery 5511 Bistro - Freeland

THANK YOU BLOOMS !! For providing a great dinner, great wine, great service, and a very pleasant experience for our large group celebrating a Birthday party.

Nice bistro and winery in Freeland, Whidbey Island,Washington State. Stopped by for lunch. There is a smallish menu selection for lunch, including vegetarian options, offering a tapas style menu. The olives, mussels and house smoked salmon are delicious and I would recommend these. There are a couple of salads on the menu too. We had a slight problem with our salads but the staff handled it well and therefore I am not taking any stars off. There was not a huge amount of flexibility to adapt the menu for food intolerances but all ingredients are listed on the menu. There is a wine tasting selection too we had the White Flight which has tastings of 4 white wines and was also good. Large deck at the back of the restaurant which is lovely but we had to change to indoors due to wasps.Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian options available on the menu including salads.Parking: About 20 car parking spaces near the front entrance.Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible stairs to front entrance. Level throughout once up the stairs, with good amount of space between tables and in the toilets for manoeuvring. Standard height toilets.Dietary restrictions: GF options available.Difficult for low FODMAP vegetarians not much flexibility for menu adaptation. There is a house salad (which you can have without the onion/tomato/cucumber topping combo, leaving just leaves) and some lovely olives.

No fancy menu or elegant ambiance but absolutely the best food we experienced on the island. Our first visit was on a Sunday afternoon for the wine tasting and we had an extremely pleasant outing on the patio. We were slightly hungry so we're ordered the chicken gyros. Wow! They were delicious. For the rest of our vacation we experienced disappointing food at other restaurants on the island that were supposedly well-rated. So at the end of our week, we decided to go back to Blooms. It was a stellar meal! When everyone at the table thinks they ordered the best dish, you know you have gone to great place.

Very elegant place. Food is excelent..We odrered mussles, salad with salmon and chicken with crab meet great. Russian cream dessert with rasberrie souce also was delucious. And great service

My wife and I spent our 50th anniversary at the Blooms Winery Suite in Freeland, WA. We consider this our little private hide-a-way so that's all I'm going to say about that. But we had a great meal at Blooms 5511 Bistro, the Three Sisters Burger was delicious and perfectly prepared. We purchased a bottle of 2016 Melange, a Bordeaux blend which includes Merlot, Malbec, and Petite Verdot. We live in Cayucos, CA which is next door to the Paso Robles wine country, so we are comfortable with with Bordeaux blends. We gave it a full 8 hours to breath and we loved it. It met any expectations one would have of a 91 pt wine.We had a wonderful visit up there and it was a priviledge to meet the winemaker and our host, Ken Bloom. Thank you sir.
