Another great pet-friendly spot!…read more We had our dogs with us since we had taken them to the dog park that day so we wanted to find a pet-friendly place where we could eat without having to take them home and then leave again. There aren't many pet-friendly places in WS so our options are pretty limited when we have our dogs with us. When we went, there was some kind of event going on so unfortunately, the food truck had already run out of quite a few things. I got the Reuben Sandwich and my husband got the Bratwurst Hoagie (I think that's what it was called?). They were both really good! We also got a side of tater tots and they were fried perfectly. They were very crispy without being greasy at all! Probably the best tater tots I've ever had. They had several hard ciders, which I really appreciate since I'm not a beer drinker. They had Churro Cider that sounded interesting so I decided to try it. It was really good! It had a nice cinnamon flavor and wasn't overly sweet which was something I was a little worried about. It was just perfect. We had a great time and next time, we'd love to sit inside and enjoy the atmosphere there!

We even had one come to our table and asked if we wanted refills which usually doesn't happen at breweries! They have so many beer options and you can mix them too which is fun. I had the pumpkin ale and mixed it with the oktoberfest beer and it was delicious! They have their own food truck outside where I got pretzel bites & cheese which were good. You can also order on the app which is convenient. It's super dog friendly which is always fun. Can't wait to go back for music bingo again soon

There was a great crowd that night, with people inside, and out enjoying their patio. They seemed to have an open mic night going with a variety of musical styles performing. It was a great crowd, and good energy. The staff were friendly, they offer a great variety of beer styles, something for all beer drinkers. We got a drink enjoyed it outside, while listening to the music. Though we didn't partake, they also had a food truck on site, offering dinner. Overall, a good visit, and good beer!

My bartender was nice also.

They had ciders from Bull City Ciderworks so I ordered the Blueberry Lemon cider. My husband started with an IPA which is his favorite but when he saw the limited-time release stout, he decided to switch. It was their last batch of Big Winston Chocolate Stout aged for six months in freshly dumped bourbon barrels from their next-door neighbors at Broad Branch Distillery. I'm not usually a beer drinker but this stout was quite nice. They also added cocoa nibs and I could definitely taste the chocolate. It's always fun to visit breweries because they're constantly offering something new.

It can get a bit busy during peak times, but that's part of the charm of a popular local spot. Parking is easy too. Overall, a really enjoyable place with a lot to offer. I'll be back!

I ain't trying to sip in silence like I'm in a library. Had a flight -- not amazing, but not offensive either. Somewhere between "meh" and "yeah I'd sip that again." But then. Just as I'm about to cash out, the largest cockroach I've ever seen decides to make its grand entrance. Full sprint across the bar like it owned the place. We pointed it out, and the whole bar absolutely lost it. The bartender screamed like it was a horror movie. One guy tried to catch it but acted like the thing had fangs. Finally, a dude with a mustache stepped up like a true hero and handled the situation -- probably deserves a plaque. 3/5. Great vibes. Solid people. But I draw the line at pet roaches.

They offer a variety of beer and wines. They have a good choice in food entrees and appetizers. I got the pretzel bites and deviled eggs. Both were phenomenal.

They too were good! Staff was super kind and brought everything to our table. She also made sure our beers were full. Megan Doss was singing at this venue while we were there which made for a great evening!

Living is Lewisville we have kept an eye on this property since they closed in late 2022. We had…read morenever visited prior to their closure but were happy to begin seeing posts on Facebook that there was new ownership and a slightly different focus. After doing a bit of online research, we learned the former owners sold the property across the street to Incendiary Brewery, which ultimately opened their second location in 2022. This location has a long history dating back to the early 1970s, when it was the first winery in the state to grow and produce European grape varietals, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Westbend Winery made its mark in North Carolina as a pioneer in the wine industry that now includes over 130 wineries and continues to grow. The original Hauser House was built in 1850, renovated in 2016 and is where the current Westbend restaurant is located. Gone are the winery days, the focus is on the restaurant, bar and music venue space. Last weekend was the beginning of their soft opening, so we had to stop in. We arrived shortly after 4pm, we were happy to see there was a collection of cars in the parking lot area. We loved the look and feel of the property from a distance but were even more impressed with it as we began looking around. The building itself looks very cool and at least somewhat original. There is also a large covered outdoor space that could easily accommodate large groups of people. There were also several picnic tables arranged in the grass if you prefer. We decided to enter the restaurant area which is now called Graze Grill. We were immediately greeted by a young man who told us we could sit anywhere. We were looking for an outdoor space on the back deck that would allow us to sit in the shade while listening to the music. We were able to grab the last table and we were brought menus and our drink orders were taken. The menu itself was nice, it offered a selection of appetizers, entrees, salads, and desserts. From flatbread pizza and buffalo chicken wraps to cheeseburgers and loaded cheese fries. There are also kid-friendly food options as well. My wife chose the WB House Salad and added grilled chicken and I decided on a flatbread pizza which I was able to choose the various toppings. The music was also entertaining and the space was very relaxing and comfortable. We were checked on throughout our visit and everyone we encountered was friendly and helpful. We also noticed their cool Westbend shirts, which my wife especially liked because they include "Lewisville, NC". The same young man offered to bring a shirt to the table for my wife to look at. She was happy with the texture and quality and decided she had to have one. He also told us they have additional swag ordered. We were really impressed with our first experience here and can't wait to come back as well as bring friends and family here when we have visitors. A great addition to the Lewisville area and Westbend absolutely compliments the other wineries and brewery in the area. We learned they are currently finalizing their operating hours and are currently open on Saturday's and Sunday's. However, they plan to be open from Thursday through Sundays. Their grand opening is scheduled for Labor Day weekend. Wishing the new owners all of the very best!
