Our server was Caroline and she was great! Staff is all very friendly. We were seated immediately and right on the water. Being a Thursday afternoon it was quiet. Our order was taken and arrived quickly. The food was very good... no complaints! Great place for couples, families or groups, we even saw a dog in there. This was our second visit here and we will continue to visit when out boating or on our Harley. read more

It was just okay. We got wings and a burger and both were average. The waitress was nice, hostess was decent but the atmosphere was fun and things seemed clean and well taken care of. read more

Food was good but the service was horrible and it was way too loud. My dad wanted to get 9 waters while we waited (we waited for a very very VERY long time) and no one was helpful. The only helpful person who was there which was our waitress and I wish I remembered her name but she was amazing. The hostess on the other hand was definitely not. read more

We ate lunch here one day since we were renting a house near here. I'm not sure if the menu changes from lunch to dinner but lunch was about as terrible as it could get. Service was great so not knocking the girls working there but food quality was not good at all. They definitely need to step up their game on food, the ribeye sandwich was inedible and tasted like I was eating a boiled piece of meat. Pizza for kids was as you would expect from a cardboard. Once again, service was great, food was terrible for lunch. read more

Nearly 13 months behind on "my humble opinion" posts. ‍‍‍ Drafts & Watercrafts at Twin Creeks Party of 4 October 6 12:00 The restaurant is located on the lake. With 3 full flights of stairs to go down. AND UP RETURNING. It's picturesque. With an amazing view of the lake. The food was somewhat pub-ish. And the drink was very sweet. The were spicy infused vodka and tequila. I wish I would have tried one of those. The food was good but not remarkable. All in all I give this spot 3.5 stars read more

Great views, good food & friendly servers! Drinks were good too. We really enjoy the relaxing, carefree atmosphere.

How are we in the south and you don't have a fryer?!?! The menu has changed to accommodate west coast folk. Rice bowls on the lake? WTH. When we 1st came here it was good food and great staples, now just get the pizza and beer ( if they even have it in tap) the rest is pretty much changed and for those Cali folks "no bueno". And to quote Friday the movie "no fries no burger" Wtf. Don't order the mozzarella sticks they're baked and "green" totally not appetizing. The service is still good. Ambiance - this place would fail based on the food if it wasn't on the lake and part of a local community. Thinking out new place to stop and eat and drink will be Tim's Ford Marina, Amigos just took over and from what I have heard it is amazing. read more

A floating restaurant overlooking Tom's Ford lake. Beautiful location. Kid love feeding the fish and turtles.

Been here many times. Food is okay - often the premade items are cold. The environment is a little stiff for a marina. Owner is not very personable. The wait staff have been nice and attentive. read more

Wow! If you have a boat you should come via water, they have your parking spots. This is definitely a nice place to come hang out, eat, listen to music and enjoy the weather. We came here to bring the party and wow we found amazing staff and a lot of people. They feature many things in this place. I'll tell you about the ones I experienced. The view is incredible, it's a bit of a drive coming from Nashville but definitely worth it. They have a restaurant and they have a bar outside. They don't offer the restaurant food to the bar but they offer a bar menu with appetizers and drinks. We have to be seated by the hostess/hosts if you want to eat the restaurant food. We stayed at the bar area. We had the chicken and steak tacos and we had the chips and salsa. They were ok. The drinks were delicious. They have two sides and both sides offer live music, this is like a big stationed floating party boat. They have only 3 stalls in the girls bathroom on the side of the bar but didn't check if the restaurant had any other bathrooms. They offered hand sanitizer outside of the doors too. They have a rental office as well if you want to rent a boat or water stuff. Definitely a place to come and hang out for the day. They have a beach area at the entrance as well read more

What a great place to go on a nice day! I am moving to Winchester in a month and I came to check out the town. This was one of the only places open on Sunday for lunch and it was exactly what we were looking for. The drinks were perfect! The food was good and the price was great! Nothing too fancy but it was perfect for any afternoon you just want a great atmosphere, good drinks, and American food! read more

I've been here several times this summer and last... always mid-afternoon on a weekday when there were a dozen or two dozen other customers in the whole place. Have always arrived by water, dock space is very easy to navigate and seems ample. Food I've had has been rather good, maybe best of the three places on the lake. Crab cake sandwich was huge and tasty. Burger seemed like good quality beef, not a lot of seasoning... satisfying. Wings were plump and tender. I'm fine draft beer in a plastic cup when I'm wearing a wet bathing suit. Party Cove bloody mary is very tasty - garnish includes olives and pickled okra. I would rate this patio as the classiest looking of the three bars on the lake. read more

Great food, great service, nice staff. Very difficult for my father to walk down to the restaurant. But we made it out.

Big missed opportunity for this great location. Overall, the staff is friendly, it is nice to eat outside on the water and the wings are good. However, the restaurant doesn't use quality ingredients (canned mushrooms for example) and management has repeatedly made poor decisions on how to run the business. On the 4th of July I watched the restaurant sit empty majority of the day while dozens of groups of people, both locals and guests from out of town, tried to sit and eat but were denied because in 4 hours fireworks were going to be lit on the lake and the restaurant was reservations only (which was not posted anywhere for people to see). They also closed the bar and opened a limited second one in the front portion of the restaurant (4-5 liquors, couple beer choices). Management refused to allow people to order other drinks even though the full bar sat empty of guests. We decided on 2 basic vodka cocktails and paid $35 not including tip. It is unfortunate to overhear guests and staff both not understand the reason for the decisions made and have a terrible experience. Winchester is a lovely area and this is the only restaurant in the immediate vicinity and to watch group after group of excited and hungry guests and locals be turned away one right after the other was incredibly disappointing. the outrageous prices for the mediocre quality is simply sad. I have been here multiple times over the past few months and have held out hope for things to turn around for my experience but my belief is the only reason this place is still in business is because there is no competition. My recommendation: go to sit on the water and be outside and enjoy the marina and an appetizer, if you are planning on enjoying libations, go in knowing they are overpriced. read more

Excellent servers, great food, cold beverage, awesome views and killer music on band night! May have to wait a few to be seated but it's worth the wait! The servers do a wonderful job getting what you want correct and getting it to you in a timely manner. They have a small kitchen, which I know isn't your fault, but they do everything they can to get your food out quickly. The Wife and I've tried just about everything on the menu and it's ALL good. Some things we like better than others but it's good. I recommend Drafts and Watercrafts!! read more

This place is perfect on a nice day! Beautiful covered outdoor seating, places to park your boat or rent a bot if you don't have one. The best part- they're DOG FRIENDLY!! Because of this we ate here all 3 nights we stayed at Twin Creeks RV Park. They even have a "Bow wow" section on the menu. I would HIGHLY recommend the Tim's Ford Peach drink and the Pulled Pork Mac & Cheese bowl! Pizza was just OK, nothing to write home about. Service was great the first 2 nights, a bit slow the 3rd. Overall great place and would definitely recommend! read more

This place is our favorite! They have excellent gluten free pizza. It was so good that we had to ask the kitchen again if it was gluten free. My husband has celiac and had no problem eating here. We (not GF) had the Mac and cheese, wings, quesadilla, and pork burger and they were all delicious! The kids loved feeding the fish, so make sure to take quarters for fish food. The staff were incredibly friendly and we loved the excellent service. read more

After a long day in the sun on a boat my family and I decided to try this restaurant. Our server who was fabulous ( disclaimer our server didn't do anything wrong she was great and only doing her job shout out to our local alabama girl!) had taken our drink order but as she gets to me I tell her my drink order and keep in mind I am freshly 21 and getting my ID updated to the right way was not important to me because it expired in 2026 and every other marina has taken it. She went and got her manager and the manger talked to my parents and said "We can't serve Red box ID's because it's suggested because it's easy to forge" when my mom took back the ID the manger gave her a disgusted look. Now apart from this I am an observer and I don't like conflict very much and I observed the atmosphere. All the manager did the entire time was sit at the bar or hovered over the workers as soon as they steeped in the back corner. Never was she really out on the floor. To top it off some of the young girls who were handling the food would go up to the tables who had ordered and pass out the food in a lazy like manner, kinda like their legs didn't work. When this happened to us my mom had said I didn't order that and she just looked at us to pass around the food for her. Most of the girls didn't look happy to be working there it seemed and I don't blame them with the type of manager they have. Now let's get into the food. For one everything on their menu is garbage other than the pizza now if that's their specialty they need to stick to that. I ordered an Asian rice bowl and the chicken was dry there was no seasoning and the rice was mushy and gross and for $15.99? Honestly after I couldn't order a drink I knew I didn't want to eat there but I gave the place the benefit of the doubt and honestly I shouldn't have. I will never come back they don't deserve my business or my family's business after the way we were treated. read more

Emma was a great waitress. However, the owner and manager were very inconsiderate and refused to serve multiple 22 year olds who drove over 8 hours to get to Winchester due to out of state IDs. What does an African-American man have to do to be served alcohol in Tennessee? I do not recommend if you want to have fun. read more

The setting was nice. Along the water and live music. However there is no indoor seating so if the weather is chilly, bring a jacket :) the food was very plain. Very disappointing and felt very generic. The menu descriptions seem exciting but the food doesn't live up to it. A lot of potential here but just not quite there read more

Food is just ok and it's overpriced! Drinks are watery and overpriced! Every year we hope for a new, better menu but never get it.

Again, dining out during Covid is a thing, but this place lets you be casual and still keep it clean and distanced. Plus good food, good drinks, and our server was great. More on her later. Full menu, great burgers, the seasoned fries were kind of warm not hot, but it was lunch rush on a Sunday and they were slammed. The bar was fast, which to me matters more! So the server: Madeline! All you can see these days is eyes, and hers are brilliant green and luckily they smile bc you can't see the rest of her face bc mask. Which had dachshunds on it so of course I asked if she had on and she didn't so of course I practically begged to see pics of her dog, so she had to ask her manager to get her phone and he said YES so shout-out to her manager for not being a control freak! Actually everyone working seemed pretty happy, but back to Madeline. I was in a cocktail mood but not sure what to get, so I asked her for a rec. I wasn't crazy about it, so she swapped it out, still not hitting the spot because I didn't even know what category I wanted! Martini? Punch? Frozen something? Anyway, she kept trying and kept smiling and 3rd time was the charm. I'm embarrassed I was so difficult but huuuge shout out to her bc she kept trying, no attitude, was fun and informative about the lake, and didn't rush us. It was packed but we wanted to drag the meal out bc it's the best setup we've ever seen at a marina! Clean, real tables and high back sling chairs, a roof in case rain or too much sun, string lights, live music, deep menu, plus kids and dog options (no lie), lake views and Madeline, shown below. You can rent boats, there's a golf course, and the entire marina and neighborhood is really pretty Will def go again! read more

Drafts and Watercrafts - a plate of shrimp skewers - American Near Me - Winchester, Tennessee

Limited menu. Very bland, basic entrees. Not worth the visit, let alone the climb down and back up the lake bank.

I had friends coming into town who had never been to this area so I researched different restaurants for us. It came down to this one or my favorite in Tullahoma, One22West . The deciding factor came down to the fact it was on the lake in the new upscale area and according to their "new menu" they carried my all time favorite beer, Ole Shed. When we put our names on the list we were told a 45 minute wait, which was fine considering the outside seating around the other outside bar was amazing. We went to the bar while we waited and the bartender was so nice and funny, the only downside, my tiny plastic cup of Barefoot Moscato was $7.50 (almost the price of the entire bottle). The bartender even said the drinks were overpriced, so if you get a mixed drink, he tries to give you extra liquor, because the shot glass he was told to use is too small. We went back to our very comfy seats and were instantly called that our table was ready, it had only been about 15 minutes. We were surprised and headed to the host station. When we arrived, the host had a concerned look on his face. I told him my name and he smiled, then the other host walked up and whispered something to him. A third host walked up to whisper something in the second host's ear, to which the second host told us to hold on and walked off. The first host put his head down and leaned toward me and said "I'm sorry, our manager came up here and decided to call every single of person on the waiting list because he doesn't want to have a waiting list anymore, he is an extremely impatient person. We still have to find you a table and clean it." I politely nodded and told him I understood (though I didn't really, I just knew it wasn't this poor guy's fault.) We were finally seated and happy, all was good. Our waitress was very nice, but you could tell was super stressed out. We ordered our drinks and naturally, I asked for Ole Shed, to which the waitress said they didn't carry it anymore. I was taken aback, as it was featured on their new menu. When it came time to order food, I ordered a house salad. According to the "new menu" it was served with Naan, which I love. After we all ordered, the poor waitress came back and said they were out of my boyfriend's mushrooms and he had to pick something else. It happens, so it was fine, he ordered something else. The food came and no Naan on my salad. I asked and the waitress said they no longer carried it but that it was supposed to come with croutons. I just laughed and said the croutons would be fine. Three bites into my salad a large, dark hair was discovered. Our poor stressed waitress openly gagged, and took it back to the kitchen. She brought me another and it was fine. Was it worth $10? No, the lettuce was not fresh, there was four slices of tomato, four slices of cucumber and bagged cheese. The waitress thought my boyfriend's grouper sandwich wasn't fish, even though he thought it was fine. She asked and the chef assured her "it was a fish." So whether it was grouper or not is questionable. All in all, I think they will have to up their game to keep this restaurant popular. The employees are obviously not happy, as the patrons can all plainly see. They need to update their "new menu" to actually reflect what they do and do not have. Their saving grace is the waitstaff being very nice and the view. read more

Staff is generally nice and location/ambiance is perfect but food is horrible and prices are comparable to downtown Nashville - way overpriced for what you get. Poor quality food ingredients, no fryers, draft beer in plastic cups. A ton of potential but it's not there yet. read more

Mothers day.. we waited over an hour to be seated and once we was seated waited another hour for our food.

Came here for a lakefront lunch with a girlfriend. Ordered a Grilled Cheese BLT. Sandwich was absolutely neglected. The BL&T on the sandwich okay with minimal flavor, but it had cold Kraft-style American cheese slices as the cheese. Last I checked on what a grilled cheese was, it involved hot melty cheese. My girlfriend ordered the burger with pimento cheese. No one asked how she would like her burger and it came out let's just say 'blackened'. Way overdone and pimento cheese was cold. Seems like there are decent menu items (slim on creativity) and if the management/owner would care about the details and the way the food is prepared, then it would be better. For the prices, and I get you are mostly paying for the ambiance, a little attention to detail would go a long way. Time to hire an innovative and caring CHEF! For a beautiful lakefront community full of million-dollar homes, I am surprised the community has not demanded a makeover of this incredible spot. 2 stars are only for the lake. The service was MEH too; pretty good until we were honest about the food. read more

I have been there several times. The food is ok I guess but one thing I am not is a mountain climber. I can walk down to the place but it's hard for me to climb steps straight up getting out unless they have changed it. I am 74 with a bad everything! You can get to it by water but not everyone has a boat and I'm damn sure not going to swim there. If it were my place I would have a limo golf cart to shuttle people up and down that hill. I really don't think they want any business other than the people that have bought one of their homes. The good thing is they have help put Winchester on the map! read more
