Overview

In Lodi, The Café at Michael David Winery is a beloved stop for fresh, filling breakfast and lunch. The menu features farm-inspired brunch selections such as benedicts, omelets, fluffy pancakes, and a dedicated kids' menu.

Lunch service starts at 11:30 am and includes crisp salads, hearty sandwiches, stacked burgers, and the popular Taco Tuesday specials. For something sweet, guests can choose seasonal pies or the café’s famous Freakshow brownies, baked fresh in the on-site bakery.

Indoor tables and a covered patio create a relaxed, family-friendly setting for a visit before or after a tasting at the winery.

History

The Phillips family has been part of Lodi since the 1860s, beginning with a roadside fruit stand and later establishing their bonded winery in 1984. Fifth-generation grape growers Michael and David Phillips carried the family’s agricultural heritage forward by shaping it into a bold, unconventional wine brand.

The sixth generation now carries on that legacy, blending sustainable farming practices with a playful character and a strong relationship with the land and community.
