Stand at the corner of 147th Place NE in the Hollywood District around 9 a.m. this week and the Yard at Harvest is mostly closed. The tasting rooms start pouring around noon. The Champagne bars fill up in the afternoon, and the steakhouse doesn't seat anyone until 4 p.m. The coffee shop, the matcha counter and the Pilates studio, the places that would make the Yard a stop on the way to somewhere else, are still on the calendar for later.
The order follows Harvest's own schedule. When the Yard announced on Oct. 5 that it was complete and its first tenants were open, it described 100,000 square feet of commercial space over 652 underground parking stalls, nearly 90% leased, with "rolling openings throughout the fall and into 2027," according to the Harvest release on PR Newswire. Put that release next to the hours the tenants have posted since, and the Yard is filling in the clock from noon outward.
Noon to 7: the tasting rooms came first
Wine went in first. Avennia and Grosgrain were both pouring when Woodinville Wine Country introduced Harvest on Oct. 8, calling it a new neighborhood in the Hollywood District where wine, dining, shopping and overnight stays sit within walking distance of each other. Avennia relocated to Harvest. The winery was founded in 2009, and the Woodinville Chamber of Commerce held its ribbon cutting at the new Harvest location on Friday, Oct. 9.
Cascade Cliffs Vineyard and Winery has the most specific listing in the Yard so far: Suite D22 at 14486 147th Place NE, open noon to 7 p.m. Thursday through Monday and closed Tuesday and Wednesday, per its Woodinville Wine Country listing. It brings something the valley floor doesn't usually pour. The winery has spent more than 30 years making Columbia River Gorge wines and describes itself as one of the few U.S. producers built around Barbera and other Italian grapes.
Several more tasting rooms were scheduled for October and have announced openings since. Gård held a soft-opening weekend Oct. 17 and 18. Elk Haven Winery set a grand opening for Oct. 24 in a shared room with Rainfire Spirits by Miles Jackson, serving wine, spirits and light bites, with hours advertised as noon to 6 p.m. J.P. Trodden's bourbon tasting room and bottle shop posted that it was open in mid-October. Newly opened rooms often adjust their days for the first few weeks, so check before you drive over.
Late afternoon into night: two Champagne rooms and a steakhouse
The second layer covers late afternoon and evening, and much of it is sparkling wine. House Balthazar in Suite D25 set its opening for Oct. 23 and describes itself as an adults-only lounge "with a French accent," serving grower Champagne, signature macarons and petite plates. Its posted opening hours run 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and until 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
Bong Bóng Bar, the first restaurant on Harvest's schedule with an Oct. 10 target date, also leads with Champagne. Its first flight, at $40, pours four low-dosage grower Champagnes from family-owned producers, and its latest posted hours run Tuesday through Friday from 2 to 11 p.m., Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Dinner starts at 4 p.m. MyNorthwest reported that Brass Steak & Seafood was set to open Saturday, Oct. 24, at Suite D20, near The SOMM Hotel. It is the latest restaurant from Christopher and Anna Saenz and chef Kyle Quinn, the team behind Seattle's 2120. The menu centers on prime steaks finished with bone-marrow-infused tallow, along with raw and chilled seafood, caviar and a dedicated martini program. The hours announced for opening are 4 to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 4 to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
Here is how the Yard's day looks from the hours posted so far:
| Business | Suite | What it pours or serves | Posted hours at opening |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cascade Cliffs | D22 | Gorge wines, Barbera | Thu–Mon, noon–7 p.m. |
| Elk Haven & Rainfire | Not posted | Wine, spirits, light bites | Noon–6 p.m., days not set |
| House Balthazar | D25 | Grower Champagne, macarons | Sun–Thu 11–7; Fri–Sat 11–11 |
| Bong Bóng Bar | Not posted | Champagne flights | Tue–Fri 2–11; Sat 11–11; Sun 11–6 |
| Brass Steak & Seafood | D20 | Steaks, seafood, martinis | Sun–Thu 4–9; Fri–Sat 4–10 |
On the posted hours, no one in that table opens before 11 a.m., and only Brass is serving a full dinner.
The morning tenants are the ones still coming
The rest of the Oct. 5 lineup is what would let someone use the Yard before lunch or on a weekday. Visible Coffee and Edit are scheduled for November. Matcha Magic, Honor Pilates and Sugo Hand-Rolled Sushi are set for December. Kiln, a coworking company that leased 22,045 square feet for private offices, team studios and shared workspace, plans to open in fall 2027. Cactus, The Crawlspace Gastropub and a new restaurant from chef Hari Nayak are also listed for 2027, along with Zirckle-Rousch on the wine side.
Until those open, a morning walk on the Sammamish River Trail doesn't yet end at a coffee counter in the Yard. Harvest's own release pitches the full day: a morning on the trail, wine tasting in the afternoon, dinner at The SOMM. On the current schedule, Visible Coffee in November is the first business to cover the morning, and Kiln's office space in 2027 is the one that brings weekday crowds.
One move leaves a gap for now
Matthews Winery shows what happens when a familiar winery joins the lineup mid-move. Its visit page says Matthews left its farm location as of Sept. 27, 2026, and that the new tasting room will open in mid-November at 14480 147th Place NE, Suite E32. The posted hours there are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily. If your usual weekend stop was the farm, plan on Harvest once the new room opens. Matthews also lists a second tasting room at 15500 Woodinville Redmond Road NE, Suite C600, open 1 to 8 p.m. daily. Lachini Vineyards and Walla Walla Vintners are also expected at Harvest later this fall.
Ste. Michelle has news too. Woodinville Wine Country reports that a Trothe tasting salon at Chateau Ste. Michelle is tentatively planned for December. It follows a partnership between Ste. Michelle Wine Estates and Andrews Family Vineyards announced Sept. 29.
November around the Yard also leans on afternoons and evenings
The Hollywood District's November calendar keeps much the same hours as the Yard, and its biggest day is just across the road. Sip & Shop at Redwood Place, 14450 Woodinville Redmond Road NE, runs Saturday, Nov. 7, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Expect $5 mini tastings at Milbrandt Vineyards, Ryan Patrick, Heritage, Sleight of Hand Cellars, Darby Winery, Chandler Reach, Goose Ridge Estate Winery, Airfield Estates and Village Wines. Market vendors include Norcino Salumi, Khobo Jerky, Puffin Pottery and Homegrown Floral, and there are prize drawings, according to the Woodinville Wine Country event listing. Between that and the Yard, one Saturday afternoon covers most of the new and established tasting rooms at the south end of town on foot.
Other dates on the Visit Woodinville November calendar worth saving:
- Thursday, Nov. 5: The Seasonal Table at Prohibition Cellars, 6 to 8:30 p.m., with trivia at Ruff Draft from 6:30 p.m.
- Thursday, Nov. 12: Dueling Pianos at Prohibition Cellars, 6 to 8 p.m.
- Friday, Nov. 13 through Sunday, Nov. 15: The Sip & Stroll Art Exhibition opens Friday from 5 to 8 p.m. and runs through 7 p.m. Sunday. Ian Skavdahl plays Synne Cellars the same Friday evening.
- Thursday, Nov. 26: Thanksgiving dinner at Barking Frog from noon to 9 p.m., or the buffet at Willows Lodge from 1 to 7 p.m.
- Friday, Nov. 27: Brian Lally's after-Thanksgiving set at Synne Cellars, 5 to 8 p.m., plus live music at Patterson Cellars, Fireside Lounge and Northwest Spirits.
- Sunday, Nov. 29: Yoga & Wine at Prohibition Cellars.
Getting there past the new signal
Most of the Yard's parking is underground, with 652 stalls beneath the shops. Posted signs cover payment, and the ParkMobile zone listed for the Yard is 45688. On the drive in, watch the intersection of 132nd Avenue NE and NE 143rd Street. The City of Woodinville scheduled a new traffic signal there to replace the stop-sign control on the morning of Tuesday, Oct. 20. The city says the signal was built as part of the transportation improvements for Harvest to handle traffic as the development fills in, and it asked drivers, cyclists and pedestrians to use extra caution while everyone adjusts.
The next connection is still being designed. The city's Eastrail Corridor project would turn a 1.9-mile corridor from Wilmot Gateway Park through downtown into a trail and linear park. It would connect to the regional Eastrail network, the Sammamish River Trail and the future Centennial Trail South extension. The fall survey on the design concepts is open until Nov. 23, 2026.
