Sideways Dinner Scene at Los Olivos Wine Merchant Café
When Miles and Jack go to dinner with the two girls in the movie Sideways, this is where they are! The tables were moved around for the movie, but you’ll recognize the wall of wine next to their table, the walk back to the bathroom (where the payphone was) and of course, the alley outside where Miles delivers the famous line about not drinking Merlot.

Return to Mayberry in Downtown Los Olivos
For this movie, Return To Mayberry, based on the 1960s sitcoms The Andy Griffith Show and Mayberry R.F.D., the town of Los Olivos, California doubled for Mayberry, with a stretch of Grand Avenue being used for the town square. A reconstruction of the original courthouse set was built in a small park at the corner of Grand and Alamo Pintado. The mid-intersection flagpole seen repeatedly in the movie is a veterans memorial that was built in Los Olivos shortly after World War I.
