Love, love, love this bar. The atmosphere is awesome and always such a great place to hang out. They have my absolute favorite espresso martini -- I seriously compare every other one I try to this place, and nothing ever measures up. One of the best parts is the music level. It's fun and sets the mood, but it's not so loud that you can't actually have a conversation. Being able to bring in your own food is also a huge bonus and makes the experience even better. Definitely one of our favorite spots. read more

Herman Marshall Whiskey - Interior - Distilleries Near Me - Wylie, Texas

I attended my 10 yr high-school reunion that was at Herman Marshall last night... to say the owner & his staff were amazing would be a HUGE understatement! They truly went ABOVE and beyond making our event wonderful. The servers were so helpful, friendly, & knowledgeable about their drink selection. The owner was amazing, very involved, welcoming, & hospitable - you could feel the passion he has for his company & team behind him, to say the least I don't visit Wylie often, but I would come back just for this stunning place & ppl! Thank yall for making our night a night to remember & being a part of the Wylie community! #rfl read more

Herman Marshall Whiskey - Event area upstairs - Distilleries Near Me - Wylie, Texas

We went into Hermann Marshall one night and came out a little excited for the next time. The service was great and the drinks were incredible. We will order food next time from one of the nearby restaurants. I love the inside and even toured the upstairs for an upcoming event. The manager was very open with information and we had a great time. read more

Lately, the service has been getting worse. I usually go on a Saturday evening when I see a good musician playing, so it is a busy night. However, several of the staff are constantly getting on their phones or conversing near the drink making area. They rarely tend the bar area where I will sit thinking I can get better service, but tonight especially they avoided that area. I had to walk over to the other side of the room to put in my order from the end of the bar. I even seen one server holding a baby instead of working and 2 other servers looking confused for at least 5 minutes about some table's order (from what I could tell watching them). There was 2 other groups at the bar attempting to waive down a server when they were ready to check out. The other issue tonight is the musical artist initially posted on their instagram to perform tonight was not there. Instead there was another person who they had posted just a couple hours beforehand. I just left without closing my tab because the music sucked and at one point all but one server that was making drinks disappeared. The drinks are great and I really enjoy visiting but they need better staff. Otherwise, I suggest they force people to go to the bar to order, so some of the servers are not running to each table to take orders. read more

Phenomenal place. Drinks, service and food delivered. Great downtown Wylie location. Great job

There are a lot more cocktail options since we've been here a year ago for their opening day. The service was great, and I love the cozy ambiance of Herman Marshalls! If you're hungry, you can order food by scanning a QR code on the back of the menu. Restaurants are nearby and will deliver for free to Herman Marshalls! read more

They don't sell food , but on the back of the drink menu they have local restaurants QR codes to menus for food, when I went last night they had a food truck in the back of the business. The service was great, I was impressed by the decorations, Friday night is Jazz nights so the ambiance was perfect to unwind to good music and great drinks. read more

We recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary at the upstairs venue at Herman Marshall Distillery in downtown Wylie on November 8, 2025, and it could not have been a better experience. Our sons hosted the party for us, and from the very first conversation through the end of the night, Angela was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything went smoothly. We reserved the upstairs space, which was perfect for our group and created a warm, fun atmosphere. Angela helped us plan the bar setup and provided an excellent drink menu featuring their whiskey/bourbon, tequila, gin, and vodka. Even though Herman Marshall doesn't serve beer or wine, they allowed us to bring in our own with a corking fee, and we were also able to bring in our own catering service, which worked out great. We were assigned two servers for the evening, and both did an outstanding job keeping up with drink orders and checking on our guests without ever feeling intrusive. One of the best compliments I can give is that many of our usual beer and wine drinkers ended up ordering mixed drinks instead--and really enjoyed them. That says a lot about how good their cocktails are, especially for people who don't normally choose mixed drinks. We don't typically leave reviews, but the venue, the service, and the overall experience at Herman Marshall Distillery were truly exceptional. Angela and the whole team helped make our 40th anniversary a night we'll never forget. We highly recommend this place for any special event. read more

Honestly one of the worst whiskeys my husband and I have ever tasted. I got the pecan pie old fashioned and my husband got the regular old fashioned. Mine was so syrupy and did not taste like pecan pie and my husband said his was one of the worst old fashioneds he's ever had. Really wanted to like this place because downtown Wiley needs good restaurants/bars but this isn't it. read more

I hosted my husband's 50th birthday party at Herman Marshall and I will definitely have other events here. Angela was great in getting everything pulled together and as a lifelong Wylie girl, I love that we were able to use local catering options in Bold BBQ Pit and Landon. Everyone we encountered was fantastic and I can't say enough about how they helped me pull off a perfect surprise for my husband. I highly recommend you book the room upstairs (unless I'm trying to book it again, then wait ). read more

Awesome place in downtown Wylie. They really did a great job with decor and keeping a small town service feel. The music was nice volume and selection. I had the flight and got to try single malt, blended whiskey and bourbon. I enjoyed 2/3. Also tried the blackberry smash which was great and the old fashioned. I would return when I'm looking for a nice adult outing with some good drinks and good company. read more

Last night was my first time going drove all the way from Frisco, an truly did not enjoy my experience. It's nice you can bring in outside food, however the drinks extremely sweet the service was trash. Two employees refused to check on us yet made rounds to every other table. We actually started a clock to see how long it would take for the only waitress who would help us come back and that took 17 mins, but I can honestly say I won't be back. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and whiskey tasting experience. Booking was easy thru Eventbrite. All you need is the email confirmation on your phone when you arrive. You are given a glass for the tasting that you get to carry with you. The tasting experience is well organized. Herman led the tasting and the tour. Marshall joined the group later. Got to taste different whiskey, bourbon and rye. The history, process and tour was very informative and interesting. Herman has a good sense of humor as he narrates which makes the tour even more interesting. The grand finale of the tour is when you have the opportunity to bottle your own Bourbon. Once bottled, you also get to seal it and get the bottle autographed by Herman and Marshall. The store sells coasters, bottle openers, accessories, branded t shirts and hats. The decor of the brewery is interesting with historical photos and pictures from tours. Barrels are table tops during the tasting session and they serve light snacks and bottled water. Plenty of parking available right outside the brewery. Overall, a great experience and I highly recommend this tour. read more

Supporting local is one thing but supporting a great local brand is a big thing. HM Distillery Tour & Tasting is everything but fancy, in fact it's down your throat (smoothly) nice like their whiskeys. I had the pleasure of visiting the place one Saturday afternoon with a friend who told me about me it. It's located at an industrial part of garland and you would even know that they are here making a concoction of deliciousness. I believe Herman and Marshall are always present during tour and tasting events. The tour consist of all the information about them, how they started, how they made it up to today and some science ( yes, science) :) The tour and tasting and is free with a glass to take home and if the event is "bottle your own" you have a chance to bottle your own whiskey for purchase. Now, that is some souvenir to brag about! read more

My boyfriend and I went to the Herman Marshall tasting room in Downtown Wylie last night (Saturday) to check it out for the first time. The room was well decorated, lively with patrons, and had a good singer/guitarist to add to the vibe. Slightly off-putting was how bright it was in there! My BF and I commented to each other as to how we would have preferred the lights to be dimmed for a more intimate feel. It seemed as though they hadn't received their glassware yet as all of the drinks we ordered were served in plastic cups. The Old Fashioned and Whiskey Sour were tasty. I didn't care for my Pink Poma. Overall I would enjoy Herman Marshall again with a few minor tweaks to the operations. Glad to have this type of establishment in Downtown Wylie! read more

Had an amazing time today at the distillery. Got to meet both Herman and Marshall today. We were able to try all of their products as well. Earlier this year I traveled to Kentucky and toured many of the distillers up there. They were massive with a lot of history and amazing sights to see. I believe I learned more today then I did my entire time in Kentucky. Herman is a wonderful tour guide. Had a great time and left there with two autographed bottles to add to my collection. Will definitely go back. read more

I come here almost weekly for trivia and always have a blast! The staff are very attentive and full of good vibes! The entire experience is just great! AND the drinks are spectacular!! I would recommend this place to literally anyone!! read more

Id just like to take a minute to recognize Herman Marshall, but more specifically all of the staff. Statistically speaking, it's usually only bad reviews that are given and that's not an accurate representation of a business or its staff. I was there yesterday, and like it can be sometimes, it was BUSY! Despite it being busier than I've seen it in a while, the servers and bartenders were fantastic! Everyone was moving with a purpose the entire time. I never saw any of the servers or bartenders standing around, doing nothing. The drink orders were prompt, accurate and always amazing. The staff consistently give their customers amazing service and that's what keeps me coming back. read more

We came into here today and the atmosphere was lively, the staff were friendly but busy! From the time we got there until we left, Herman Marshall was packed. Jazlyn was nice and answered our questions, drinks came out quick despite how busy they were. Service was awesome and they killed it! We will be back! read more

Great service from Kati H and very helpful too with several suggestions. The inside of HM is great, fun to hang out and have a whiskey and relax. The whiskeys are locally crafted and they offer a locally made vodka as well. I am not an expert on whiskey but the one I tried was excellent. Nice place and friendly atmosphere! read more

The best whiskey distillery tour I have ever been on. Herman of Herman and Marshall led the tour and gave us all an intro into whiskey tasting, history, and the process. It was an extremely informative tour that no matter your knowledge, you could learn something new. You can see how much Herman loves what he does just by sitting in on one of his free tours. I was there for about 2 hours and i could've stayed much longer, it was that good. All I can say is, it's a must do. Go be part of this weekly distillery tour, you will not be disappointed. read more
