    Nice atmosphere. Have fun games to play. Very big inside and outside. Staff is nice. A couple of tasting options. Their other drinks looked good also.

    Fantastic setting with nice seating indoors and outdoors. Great place to spend the afternoon with friends enjoying bourbon, cocktails and a mocktail.

    We loved this place so much we planned our weekend getaway just to come back. Went last night and Lauren was behind the bar again! Yay! Also tried out the food truck, Fair on Wheels. This really was a nice truck and the food was awesome. They sold out of empanadas by the time we went, so we hat steak tacos and mozzarella sticks. Both were great. Toward the end of the night a random woman walked up and started talking to my wife at the bar, come to find out, she was the matriarch of the family business, Patricia. We had a great conversation with her about the business and how they want to see it grow and really be a part of the community. It was really nice. We will continue to make this one of our regular stops whenever we are up this way.

    This place while not too big was one of the better ones we have ever been to. The drinks were so delicious & so appealing! If they had more food options we probably would've sat there for hours. We purchased one of the seasonal gin bottles as a gift. Such smooth easy to drink cocktails here. Staff were friendly & had excellent recommendations. On leash Dog friendly outdoor section. So cute.

    So. Good. Truly the best bourbon and gin. The cocktails are craft, absolutely unique, delicious, smooth. The tour is worth it. The staff is fantastic. Absolutely a must visit. This is a place I'd drive out of my way to visit, no question!

    This place seems like it would be amazing if you went when the weather was nice. The day we visited was rainy which meant the inside was pretty busy. It took a while to get service and even longer to tab out. The drinks themselves were tasty though as were the spirits. I just wish we would have had better service and the ability to be outside away from some of the noise. There was a taco food truck there when we visited and the food looked amazing but we had just eaten so we didn't try anything.

    If I could give this place 4.5 I would, but because it just misses the mark on any warmth, I'm giving it a 4. The cocktails are sublime! We had "The Orchard", "Peach Moon" & a "Pumpkin Spiced Espresso Martini". We also had a tasting (Seasonal Gin, Gold Mine Moonshine, and small batch Bourbon) and the Something Snacky.

    This was the best "tasting visit" we had over a long holiday weekend. It was so good, we went back again! Big Creek has an awesome tasting room and a great outdoor area. There was a food truck on station when we were there Sunday afternoon. The spirits were tasty. I really just came for the bourbon, which was really good. Mix it in a "Smoke on the Mountain" old fashioned, and it's a win! I ended up leaving with a couple bottles. The service in the tasting room was awesome. The bartenders both times were true artists!

    I actually just just walked in to grab a few bottles but pleasantly surprised that they had a bar. Sat down and had one of the best old fashions I've ever had regular and smoky. Also good conversation with some other patrons so overall atmosphere great, service great, definitely recommend you come in for a few drinks.

    An all ages place, there's an open garage door and food truck with I video of a fireplace on one wall and the game on the other. We had an appointment but there were no tables. Long lines at the bathroom. Our flight was strong over smooth: gin, bourbon and moonshine.

    Purple haze- purple lavender drink with gin was amazing!!
    Ron L.

    Wow just wow walk in and instantly welcomed great drinks great quality and inside outside seating available and the drinks are amazing. Staff was friendly and very informative a must recommend $10 whiskey, moonshine and gin flights The Gin is so refreshing and the small batch Bourbon was just WOW!!!

    Highlight of our trip. Amazing and creative bartenders; everyone was super cool and friendly. I got the Christmas cookies themed drink and my hubby got the nutcracker. Food truck out back, egg roll boyz. It was fire. Gorgeous building and scenery. What a great time!!!

It was a Tuesday night, which turned out to be wing night with wings that were a reasonable price. I also went for the fish and chips, which were fair. The wings were quite tasty, and they have a decent variety of sauce flavors to choose from which is a good thing. I also went for the street corn, which was excellent. We were sitting out on the porch, and the weather was good. Noise was kept to a minimum so we were able to talk without having to shout, which I consider to always be a good thing. The food was good, our wait staff were decent, and we were very happy with our experience. If we are in the area again, we would certainly return.

I can't speak for the food, as we were only there for the beer and music, but overall it's a great spot to hang out in this little tourist town. Bartenders were great and the beer was cold.

I am glad they allow pets, and was thankful for a spot for my pup and I to eat. That was about all that was good about Alpine. I had to ask the server for a dog water bowl. They did have one available but unlike other restaurants nearby I had to ask. I ordered the cod and chips. The food came out hot at least, but was barely edible. I took one bite of the coleslaw and it tasted off. The fries were a weird doughy consistency inside and yet crunchy and brown on the outside. The fish was the only thing I ate and that is because I was hungry. It looked like it was pulled frozen out of a box and heated up. So sad this was the last meal in town after such a good trip otherwise.

    If you are looking for the perfect blend of outdoor adventure, authentic Italian flavors, and…read morebreathtaking atmosphere in North Georgia, look no further than Trattoria di Montaluce. I have visited Montaluce Winery and Estates many times over the years, but I've always been on the move, never quite able to pause and soak in the full experience. This past weekend, while celebrating my birthday, my friends and I decided to change that. After a refreshing hike through the stunning property, we finally made time to stop in and it was everything I hoped it would be. The moment you step inside, you are transported. The interior aesthetics are absolutely gorgeous. There is a distinct, charming, and "campy" vibe that feels incredibly rustic and upscale at the same time. The taxidermy animals mounted on the walls add such a unique, authentic touch to the space. It's the kind of place you just don't find in chain restaurants. There is just something about a good wood-fired pizza that is unmatched. You can taste the quality and the craft in every bite. I ordered the classic Margherita pizza, and it was exactly what I needed after hiking. It was fresh, bubbly, and perfectly charred. To round out the meal, I paired my pizza with a glass of their signature apple wine. It was the perfect crisp accompaniment to the meal, capturing the essence of the Georgia mountains. Surrounded by real friends who truly celebrate you is a blessing within itself, and Trattoria di Montaluce provided the perfect backdrop for our birthday festivities. It's the kind of place where time slows down, allowing you to actually connect and enjoy the company you're with. If you find yourself finishing a day of wine tasting and hiking, and you think you might not have room for a full pizza, do not let that stop you! Order it anyway and take it home. Your future self will absolutely thank you for that delicious, wood-fired treat the next day. Whether you are a local or just visiting the North Georgia mountains, make sure the Trattoria at Montaluce is on your itinerary. It is a quintessential experience that I am so glad I finally carved out the time to enjoy. #DahlonegaEats #Montaluce #WoodFiredPizza #GeorgiaWineries #YelpElite #BirthdayCelebration #AshSaidIt #NorthGeorgiaLiving #ItalianDining #FoodieLife

For people very fit it could be ok, but not appropriate or worth it for older people or those who really enjoy hiking. Constantly looking at the minimalist trail watching out for debris on the trail. Not comfortable hiking. Cheesy at best. The dinner was served in a cafeteria type atmosphere with a long line of TVs. Service was sketchy at best, and the food was just OK. Noisy. The wine tasting was ok. I would find some place else.
