Sip Under the Niagara Sun:

Summer at Henry of Pelham

There’s something special about summer in Niagara. The vineyards are lush and green, the patio is buzzing with conversation, live music fills the air, and every glass of wine tastes just a little better enjoyed under the sun.

Whether you're planning a leisurely afternoon, a weekend getaway, or simply looking for your next favourite bottle, there are countless ways to experience summer at Henry of Pelham. Here's what's happening this summer!

Late Night Fridays

Ease into the weekend with extended hours on the patio! In July & August both Henry of Pelham and Short Hills Kitchen will be open until 8:30 p.m. with live music and weekly features.  Whether it's date night, a family gathering, or catching up with friends, Friday evenings are the perfect excuse to slow down and savour the summer.
