    I thought this place was great! Clearly it is the local watering hole and was packed from the minute we got there, till the moment we left. We even drove by later in the evening and it was still packed. As for the ambiance, very nice vibe, great views and lots of seating. They were equipped with outdoor heaters all throughout the outdoor seating area also. While we were there, we saw two servers and they were attending all the guests pretty quickly, so we didn't have any issue there. We did see that the tables weren't getting cleaned off for the new groups coming in and we also never got our food. We ordered a frozen margarita and an Austin East cider and some fries. Our drinks came out right away but the fries never came out and we were already done with our drinks so we just asked our waitress to take them off the bill. Other than that everything was great. We frequent Wimberley and this will definitely be in our rotation of stops. Oh! They also have big screen TV's with games on!

    I love Wimberley! This place used to roll up the sidewalks at sunset, but now it's got a little nightlife action. Sure, it all still shuts down around 11-12, but hey--at least now you can stay out late enough to feel rebellious without ruining your morning coffee routine. Beers are about $8-9, which is basically the price of admission to hang out under some of the best string lights you'll ever see. The Let Go is the star of the show--you can plop down under a giant glowing tree, grab a drink from the long bar, and catch a game on one of the TVs. It's cozy, fun, and you'll definitely feel cooler than you actually are.

    View from the bar- very chill. And the onion rings are A+++++

    This outdoor dive bar is super quaint and definitely a place for locals tofeel seen and connected. As a visitor of Wimberley, this week, I found their margarita to be quite dangerous and the best way possible. The margarita is definitely very strong. I am showing a picture of my melted. Second margarita that I definitely won't be able to finish, but if that is what you were looking for. This is definitely the spot to get Great drinks, great vibes, and kind people surrounding you.

    Cool retro outdoor bar! Nice place to grab drinks with friends. Burgers are a always a hit with visitors but some of the other items are hit or miss. Everyone agrees the fries are disappointing. The giant oak trees provide shade and the Adirondack chairs offer a relaxing atmosphere. Traffic noise can be overwhelming so come off peak for a more relaxing experience.

    Service was a little slow, but understandable with the small kitchen and large amount of customers they got. This seems like one of the main watering holes for folks to gather and grab a drink after a long day. Fish tacos and Philly Cheesesteak was incredibly filling and tasty! Chicken sandwich tasted a little burnt, and is definitely not as spicy as expected. The fish tacos were more spicy than the chicken! But the size was definitely one of the biggest chicken sandwiches I've seen, They have a really fun bathroom so make sure to go wash your hands at least once before you leave!

    Fun retro bar in Wimberley! Only outdoor seating but plenty of it. Staff was friendly and casual. Menu has a lot of bar food options. Cheese fries hit the spot- pickled jalapeños and bacon really added to it. Came with a side of ranch too. Nashville hot chicken sandwich was super crispy, but not spicy, could have used more heat for sure but the crunch was really nice.

    Fried "butterfly" shrimp

    I'd like to love this place, but I simply cannot. The service is very inconsistent and the food follows suit. I've had a couple of really good meals here but sadly, I've had more bad ones. Our server tonight was pretty indifferent. My drink was ok-a margarita that has been better. I was excited to see fried shrimp on the menu but was very disappointed when it arrived. While the 6 shrimp were large as promised, they were not butterflied, fresh tasting or scrumptious. The breading fell off completely, and the red sauce served with it was not ample for the portion. The only thing with my shrimp were some fries that seemed leftover from lunch. They were soggy and barely warm. Top it off with their horrible environmental policies; foil squeeze tubes of ketchup, plastic lidded containers for sauces, and plastic flatware, the place often feels dirty. It's the most visible bar scene in Wimberley so it will continue to thrive. But I'd avoid if you want service, consistency, fresh flavor and cleanliness.

    A car drove buy that had a dog wearing doggles lmao. The highlight of my visit.

    We decided to meet a few friends at the let go in downtown Wimberley. Like anywhere near there, parking is not easy but if you drive around long enough, you'll eventually find one a few blocks away. We started with a bloody Mary and a French 77, which were both $12 each. My fiance liked her French 77 but the first and second one tasted quite different, not surprising based on the lack of measuring when it was made. The bloody Mary was very cucumber forward, a little weird for that drink but probably not bad if you like cucumber (I don't). They had beer top but not a great selection if you like craft imo. My second drink was a michelada which was cheaper and better than the Mary. What I did enjoy was the outside seating and people watching as you're right in the middle of the action and traffic in Wimberley. We had a decent time but probably wouldn't hurry back.

    French Dip

    Walking through Wimberley is a unique experience. This day we gave The Let Go the opportunity. This place is unique, the atmosphere is great, busy and calm. The food really is very good. The service is excellent, the attention really was extraordinary. The recommendation and description that they gave me about the menu was very useful. I had the opportunity to enjoy one of their special dishes, the French Dip, of which I tell you that the sauce for the dip of this sandwich is spectacular. The bar area and the patio is something excellent and as a strange note but that will be to your liking, be sure to visit the curious restroom service, it seems like a rare recommendation but you will laugh and love it. Please tell me about your experience...

    Food and drinks were good! The location is the best part. Right in the middle of the commotion! Would recommend

Our server Keyoni was great, there were some hiccups with missed drinks a couple times, but overall he did great and the best that he could handling our big group. The views were super nice and they even had little seating areas in the turf area, which was perfect for our kids to play around after they ate. The food was amazing here, and I didn't have one bad bite! The queso and the guacamole in the Creek House chip trio was so good. The truffle parmesan fries were nice and crispy, and I loved the garlic aioli on the side. Even our kids' macaroni and cheese was delicious, I was eating the leftovers as a side with my own meal! I picked the smoked and shaved beef sandwich, which had really good flavor and very tender meat. I really liked the cucumber salad on the side because it was different than your typical side of fries or regular salad. It was light and refreshing! I had bites of the redfish and the pork chop also, which are two dishes that I wouldn't normally order myself but they were both amazing bites! It was the juiciest pork chop I had ever eaten before. I paired my meal with a house blackberry soda, which was refreshing. My only regret is that I didn't have room for dessert! Overall it was a great pick for a Friday night family dinner!

Live music in the background set the perfect ambience for the evening. Our server, Matt, made the whole experience -- no AI could have crafted a more perfect waiter. From start to finish, he was spot-on: his wine suggestions, his appetizer recommendation, and the wine pairing he chose for our main course were all perfect. It was disappointing to learn that the next day would be his last with the restaurant -- he was truly an asset. We'll be back next month, though whoever serves us next has a lot to live up to. The food itself was outstanding too -- perfectly seared shrimp and grits with sweet corn and blistered tomatoes, fried green tomatoes topped with crab and avocado, and a hearty steak sandwich with crispy fries. Every dish was as memorable as the service.

The room was cozy and thoughtfully set up with a mini fridge (perfect for storing leftovers), a coffee and tea station, and an incredibly comfortable bed that made it hard to leave in the mornings.

We also ordered the tostadas, biscuits and gravy, and avocado toast, and every dish was full of flavor and beautifully done. The mimosas were just as impressive; I tried the guava mimosa for the first time and it was so refreshing and delicious. To top it all off, the atmosphere is absolutely perfect. Sometimes they have live music, and you can also head out back to relax by the fire, which really adds to the overall experience. It's peaceful, charming, and feels like the perfect escape. This is truly one of the best places to stay in Wimberley, and we can't wait to come back.

When we were poking around looking for breweries in the area on Yelp we came across The Shady Llama! This place doesn't make their own beer but they have lots of guest taps for breweries in the surrounding area. It's a good variety of beers to choose from and it looks like there is at least one food truck available sometimes in case you get hungry. The main draw for why we came here was to see the llamas and indeed we dis see some. One of them gave us some attitude and then sauntered off down a hill, taking it's less moody companion with it. They were funny and with the attitude I got and the name of the place I posted the Eminem song "My Name Is" where the lyrics "Slim Shady" get mentioned on Instagram because I thought it was all quite fitting. In addition to seeing the llamas we saw a great view of Hill Country. There was a lot of seating when we were here and could pick pretty much anywhere we wanted to sit. But I'm sure the place can get busy... the location and those llamas are reason enough. Cold beer, moody llamas and beautiful Hill Country... definitely worth the stop!

    I've wanted to come to Shady Llama for years, and we finally made it out yesterday. I am so…read moredisappointed in myself for not coming all the time before this, because Shady Llama is EXCELLENT! First, the staff members are very friendly and know everything there is to know about their available wine and brews. I love that almost all (if not all) are local sips - it's really great to see all of these different places in Wimberley/Dripping Springs/Spicewood support each other. Just another reason why I love Hill Country! When I saw Lazarus Rice Lager and St. Elmo, my gluten free heart skipped a beat, because both of those brews have been treated with the enzyme that makes the brews (normally) OK for those who are gluten sensitive but not for those with celiacs. I don't miss beer, but those two brews are too delicious to pass up when I see them on tap! We also tried the Spicewood wine flight, which was one of the best wine flights I've ever had, and I cannot wait to go buy bottles of each to bring home. All 3 were delicious, crisp, robust, and beautifully paired with each other in the flight. The views were beautiful. Beautiful is honestly an understatement. I love that so much of this area is still undeveloped. I'm sure it was less developed even 5 years ago, but the views from Shady Llama while sitting in a wooden porch Adirondack chair sipping some wine is perfection. I can only imagine how beautiful it is at sunset. I do wish they had a couple more tables by those chairs so I can rest my drink, but it's uneven and probably hard to do so, so I happily will sit with my brew in hand and relax. There's also plenty of seating but not overly crowded with chairs and benches which is love, and I loved the hammocks too! This place is GREAT for families. Playgrounds, slides, almost all kids areas gated so you don't have to worry about them running into the woods with critters. Fun for all ages, and they're just far enough from the seating to minimize the noise that this kiddos love to make! I loved the llamas. Some of them were so spicy and truly just wanted the food, and I feel that. No pets, just food, and I applaud it. Some of them would let you pet them, and the personalities on some of them were REAL, but give them some food and they may let you take a picture. So much fun having them there! Add on some delicious brisket in the back (I am so sad I missed the burnt ends), and all in all, the Shady Llama is GREAT! You are also able to bring outside food, but no outside beverages! Great place and cannot wait to come back!
