What a hidden gem!…read more My husband and I are from Austin and recently bought property in Seadrift. For 6 months we have driven past this place, but today we finally stopped. It's a bit of a hole in the wall, but it definitely adds to the charm. From the outside, we weren't sure it was open, even though there was signage saying it was. Inside it's super quaint and adorable. The staff was absolutely lovely. I stopped by to pick up frozen wine slushees that I saw on our local bulletin board, and I ended up walking out with 5 (4 different flavors), plus a bottle of wine. Had we not been in a bit of a rush to get to Seadrift, I would have loved to have stayed for some apps, because the menu of them sounded amazing. The cherry flavor is definitely my favorite so far (I've only tried 2 so far). As the sweet girl told me, the owner uses real cherries to make it, which you can definitely taste. As mentioned, what a wonderful hidden gem! I'm so excited to have friends drive down in the future and can't wait to direct them to stop here on their way!

The bride had a brisket sandwich that was loaded with meat, on a beautiful soft bun. The salads were great, and the drinks were fantastic. We can't wait to go back and visit again. We encourage you if you're going down 87 from Victoria toward Bloomington or beyond, stop and grab something to eat. It's well worth it.

Our guide Diana was delightful & gave us tips on wine tasting & the process of wine production. She even offered the history of winery's in the Texas Hill Country & the local town Boerne.

Love the park and ride, it's a relief being able to drink alcohol and not have to worry about calling an uber or cab. The park and ride allows you the opportunity to just relax, and enjoy the experience. If you log onto their website they have different tour packages. We did the Guadalupe River tour. We stopped at 3 Winery's and a distillery and tried some moonshine. We stopped for lunch in Comfort, Tx which was a cute little town. You get out and enjoy a some time looking around before moving on with the tour. The winery's they take you to are just amazing. What you get for the price is such a great deal. We never felt rushed. They allowed us to sight see and allowed us to just take our time to enjoy each winery. Diana or Robin even took our photos.

Hey y'all !! Back with another review !…read more I decided to visit this winery despite the happy hour mix up . They had a sign posted outside says 5 wine , 5 cheese 5-11pm lol idk but a bunch of us thought that meant $5 wine and cheeses .. but it was $45. I love wine so I don't mind indulging in luxury . Now the popcorn was 10/10 the Parmesan with the chili powder is a hit $9 .. you get enough to share with 2/3 ppl . The wine we got was very tasty . I loved it tbh. Now , here something I felt was very wrong. I'm not a business major but I owned a business and I guess this depends on morals . This wine in the store is $6 .. we were charged $48 .. I get making your money . I would've been okay with it being $20-25 but almost $50 which it was with tax is wild . That's 700% over its value. It was also described as very high end lol " Italian "... I've visited really expensive winery's like Stella wine bar and vineyards and the prices were not even close to these. I live in the commmunity and I'm honestly shocked but I'm not from Texas . This wouldn't fly back home . I did ask and he said he couldn't discuss because he wasn't the owner , understood Overall , place is beautiful ... very comfy . I would love to visit again maybe during happy hour to taste plenty more . Please do go though if you don't mind upscale of prices 10/10 for experience and ambiance 7/10 wine Prices 5/10 ( due to over priced vs market price)

This is not the typical festival that has thousands of people in attendance, they limited the number to create a better, more personal experience. We received a wine glass & a Wino Fest sheet for notes with the wineries in attendance as well as some educational materials to enhance our wine knowledge. Throughout the event there was live music, food vendors, and a great time! The information sheet that we received outlined each winery in attendance which we used to write down notes about each one. We learnt that unlike other festivals that charge an entrance fee for only 10 or so samples of wine, we could try all the different types of wine. This festival is designed to promote and support Texas Wineries. It was good to know that we 100% supported local TEXAS wineries.
