Linda, the coordinator, was the absolute best. From the planning in the morning to the end she was there. Helpful every step. She anticipated our needs and made things happen.

The castle like building is beautiful inside and out. It's full of history and cool stories. Whether you go for lunch, dinner or decide to hold a private event here... You won't be disappointed!

Each room had its own character. I loved hearing about the rich history of the building as well as how it became the tasting room it is today. There were four of us who visited. A tasting is $20 for (8) sample pours. I was surprised at how good each of the wines were! Our group's favorites were the Sauvignon Blanc, 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, and Bishop's Blend. Jordan guided us through the tasting telling us about each wine and answering any questions we had. He did a great job at keeping our glasses full while also giving us space to enjoy. Overall, this is a great wine tasting option in the area!

I'm not sure if the cake came from here but the cake was so moist and delicious and the icing had just the right amount of sweetness. The salad with pasta and vegetables with a beautiful flower on the side was delicious. They were very free with the drinks and top shelf liquor. And there was always a server ready to go get you a drink if you didn't want to get it yourself. I am so impressed with this place.

The arrival area has a lovely hacienda feel with a lovely fountain outdoor. There is a lovely outdoor patio on one side of the building with outdoor seating and fireplaces. There is also a deck on the opposite side with wooden cocktail tables to mingle and socialize. In the main building there are three different areas. The first area is a smaller casual hall that opens up onto the patio with fireplaces (which was very necessary as the temps outside turn chilly). This was the place where the service before the party was held with family and friends. This space was also used for the buffet dinner and desserts. After the service, we adjourned to the other side of the building that contains the stables for the property's horses. We had a cocktail reception in the stables and were able to make use of the outdoor patio. The main event hall is very large and easily can accommodate a large party of 200+. It is very sizable and there was ample room for a dance floor and a long head table. There is a large stage in front and things were beautifully decorated for the event. Everything looked so beautiful. Gorgeous option for parties, weddings, and corporate functions.

From the owner: Owner is a by product of a hardworking mother and risk-taking father. By splitting time between my…read morefather’s small town of Cepio, Guanajuato, Mexico and Joliet, Illinois, I got the opportunity to view life from many perspectives. A theme that never changed no matter what the circumstances were was the importance of achieving as a family and supporting one another. Our time spent stateside opened opportunities for my sisters to seek higher educations and my brothers to seek business opportunities. Cepio taught me resiliency and self-reliance. Respect for life on the farm is something that was engrained in me from a young child, learning that nothing worth having comes easy. Passion for working with horses was almost an unspoken rite of passage that was passed down from my grandfather to my father, who later passed it down to me. I continue the tradition by teaching my children.

Wow! I had never been to Plainfield Lanes before, but came for my nephew's birthday party this…read moreweekend. I was very pleasantly surprised! Most bowling alleys (if not part of a chain, ie Brunswick), have a dreary vibe to them - dark, dank and unkempt - but not here. We arrived at 1pm for the birthday party, and all of the lanes were already busy. You can tell that this business books a lot of parties - and I can see why! The price per person for parties is fantastic! They have multiple tiers of both children and adult parties, as well as corporate and fundraising events. We had chicken fingers and pizza, and both were better than you'd expect at a bowling alley. The party even had a coordinator; he kept the time very on track, and was very accommodating. I'd definitely recommend Plainfield Lanes as a local outing or party spot!

This was my first time at Twisted Pin, and I was very impressed. The prices are pretty high but as…read morea non-bowler, I am not sure how they rank compared to other places. On the other hand, this place is also a little more high end compared to your old fashion bowling/dive bar places. The location was very easy to find. We used Google Navigation and it lead us directly to the place. If you miss the entrance, it might be a little annoying to backtrack but no big issues. Parking was no issues and it is very big compared to the size of the building. We showed up on a busy Wednesday where it is penny pins so you only pay a penny per pin you knock down. Essentially...the worst you are, the cheaper your game will be. Inside the building is very nice and clean. There are two entrances..one is a "restaurant" and the other is the decent sized arcade and bowling. There is a self serving beer tap. And they do serve food. They do a little star less due to the prices of the food as well. It is better than your traditional bar/bowling food but it is a little more expensive. Also, I do enjoy the service of the self serving beer tap. They had a lot of selections of beer, 1-2 seltzers, 1 cider and ~5 wine selection. Also, they do have a "limit" of ~32 oz where the bartender can allow you or less depending on how you act. I do appreciate that so while you can drink feely, no one is getting drunk. I think we were paying ~.60 cents an oz and it does tell you how much your drink will cost as you are pouring. Also, they do have a small water station will is greatly appreciated. The arcade is decently sized. They do have a lot of selections of games but it is not a place where I would go just for the arcade. The size is good for after bowling or while you are waiting for your lane. Overall, I am very impressed with this location. Food, self serving beer tap, and arcades... I am fan of Twisted Pins and I would be back in the future.
