“It's been a few years since I've reviewed anything, but Peggy and I are back in the land of grapes and Jesus blood, aka Fredericksburg. We met up with some friends for a weekend of gluttony with wine and formage. That's fancy speak for cheese. We stopped at the Pontotoc Vineyard. Pontotoc was a community before they had an apocalypse/typhoid breakout. Now it's a ghost town. The only ghost I believe in is the Holy Ghost™ Anyway, the ladies had their famous sangrias and I opted for a Tempranillo. I'm pretty sure it's French for Temptation. But unlike Adam and Eve, I am in control. Unfortunately, we had eaten at a farm to table restaurant earlier and I had a Rev. Hank to toilet moment. I had more bubbles in my guts than any of the sparkling wines we've had. I immediately repented to my lord and savior. They say there's no fury like a woman scorned, but those people have definitely never blended a cheeseburger, wine and whiskey. The bathroom facilities are easily accessible, but a little drafty. You'll feel the angels breathe upon you while you rid yourself of sin. I highly recommend this place! Can't wait to return.“
“Is luckenbach Texas. Although it's not a town anymore because they removed the post office it's a great attraction. Luckenbach is a place where obviously a lot of entertainers have visited best well known for Waylon Jennings luckenbach Texas and Willie Nelson for his visits as well as other music artists. They do have food they do have drinks they do have entertainment it's very laid back to have open mic to have stages and a lot of people who ride Harleys do go there“
“We had such an amazing time with John B. For our tasting. All the wines were fabulous and the experience was so fun. The property is gorgeous and so grateful for such a special wine tasting!Food & drinks: Pizzas were fabulous! We got the caprese pizza, Meat Lover’s Pizza, and the Mediterranean pizza and every single one was fabulous“
“Such an amazing brunch spot in Fredericksburg. Usually a 15-20 wait but so worth it. Have to try the Josephine. Don’t knock before you try it. It works so well together. Omelettes are always a hit too. Must go when you’re in town.“
“My wife and I are staying in an Airbnb nearby and decided to stop by along the way. We ate The Original Pig Sandwich and Everyone’s Favorite Pulled Pork Nachos. The sandwich was great and tangy, not too messy. The nachos were also excellent, coming with a white queso. The atmosphere was cozy and the knick-knacks around the place were neat to look at, especially the Houston Astrodome seats!“
“We loved doing our tour. We were the only ones at the last tour of the day and everyone was so kind and knew the answer to all our questions. I want to go back to Fredericksburg just so I can go back! Both the wine and the people are amazing!“
“OMG!!! What a gem! Wine was excellent. Food was great. The show however is an amazing mix of piano bar and your best friends comfy living room. Not only would I recommend this little slice of Heaven. I will be there every single time I come this way. Thanks Perspective from your biggest fans from New Orleans!!!!!“
“Fields and fields and fields of poppies! Such a delightful place to stop if you are wine touring or antiquing around Johnson City and Fredericksburg! Just seeing it from the road will take your breathe away. They have beautiful walking trails, a lovely store, and restaurants. Highly recommend.“
“You can only get one size pizza here, just be warned. So we got 2 calzones instead. It’s not my favorite thing, but friend said best he’s had in a while. We had the salad with grapes which was amazing. Friendly staff, but only seating for around 8-10 people, so more a place to grab pizza and go.“
“There are several German places in Fredericksburg but I chose this one to celebrate a special event with friends and family and was happy with it. They were very accommodating in having tables for us beside each other for our big party. Prices are reasonable for quality German food. Got the pork schnitzel and it was very yummy. Good fried breading without being too thick or greasy, great sides. Everyone was happy with their meals. Highly recommended if you need a place to celebrate with great food in Fredericksburg!“
“One of my favorite wineries! The staff is always upbeat and friendly, the wines are great, and Friday through Thursday they have live music. They have great areas to sit indoors or on the deck outdoors. Some of the best red wines and they have won multiple awards!“
“We had a lovely time last night listening to live music. Of course when the sun sets in the Texas Hill country the sunsets are incredible to watch. We love it here the food and service were on point. The owner and his wife were at the Club and were so kind and hospitable.“
“Our visit to Becker was something very special. Bobby rolled out the red carpet and gave our group of four the ultimate VIP experience. His tour was memorable, we absolutely won't forget our time there! Our tour included about 10 tastings, barrel samples, reserves, the private cellar, charcuterie and Bobby's vast knowledge of the history and operation of Becker. He is such an asset to Becker. If you are traveling out to Fredericksburg, you have a ton of choices in vineyards. Make sure Becker is part of your plans. You will absolutely love it!“
“I’ve been consistent with practicing yoga for the first time in my life, thanks to Good Foundation and owner Shelby! Almost two years of wonderful classes; all levels, no judgement, cozy space, and loving the variety of class offerings. Aside from classes, Shelby is an old soul and pours her creative writing and wisdom into wonderful emails to encourage all. The community that has formed in this space and is ever-welcoming and ever-growing!“
“Came here for brunch with a big party. Lots of seats on weekday lunch time. Got the hangover omelette was it was yummy. Everyone was happy with their meals ranging from pork chilaquiles, french toast, pancakes, traditional brunch food. Highly recommended!“
“This was my first time here and was not disappointed. The food along with the pretzel appetizer were amazing. The wait was not long at all but if you have a big group then make reservations. The service was great. You will be in awe with water well that is in the restaurant with a see through glass looking down. I will definitely come back again.“
“Visited this Mini-Donut food truck while in town (located in front of Ace) on a mini-vacation. I must say, these are absolutely amazing! The person that took our order was incredibly nice and made it an effort to make our first visit here an enjoyable one, and he did just that! We had the pumpkin spice (seasonal), truffle, and cinnamon roll flavored donuts (all separate orders, can't mix and match - pumpkin spice being a top choice for me!) and they are out of this world, simply put! Incredibly soft and flavorful, and when eaten when they are fresh/warm, they are some of the best donuts you'll ever have. When in Fredericksburg, you MUST visit them! I highly recommend!“
“Glenn Alise is awesome at Fiesta winery! She helped me with a gift card situation & we had a great tasting experience. They have a few locations, I enjoyed the 290 location, cute spot, casually fun, not pretentious. Make it a stop on your visit!“
“I went on a wine tour with 11 other family members on a girl's trip and I highly recommend this location for sweet wines and mimosas. My two favorite wines that we sampled were the Serena Red Wine and Sori Gramella Mascato d'Asti. Both wines were sweet and a majority of our group bought both bottles. If you go on the 290 Wine Bus Tour, I recommend stopping at this location. Along with the good wines, the snickerdoodle cookies were absolutely delicious. They are nice and soft and crumble in your mouth. The staff were very helpful with selecting wines and savory treats. Bathrooms were very clean as well.“
“Barb is absolutely amazing! The atmosphere and vibe of Six Shooter Cellars is always fun and always keeps me going back. Whether it’s for the daily dose of fun animal photos, tasty meads, or a dose of reality, Barb is always sure to provide it. Her mead selection is the best around. 10/10 recommend! Go visit Six Shooter! It doesn’t disappoint!“
“Martin, the owner, greeted me as soon as I stepped into the quaint wine tasting room. I told him that we want tastings, 6 people, and he immediately got the glasses ready. After taking us through the wines for tasting, I bought a bottle to have with our party outdoors. Angela, the owner's wife came out to check on us and see how we were. She was able to do that even though a wine tour had arrived. The facility is beautiful and the wine is the best I've tasted in Texas so far I .“
“As regulars at Cross Mountain Vineyard's, I cannot recommend it enough. The wines are top-notch, the prices are fair, and the service is always exceptional. It's our favorite spot for a reason – quality, value, and service all in one place.“
“Hye cider is hands down the best cider in Texas. You honestly can’t get better. It’s not overly sweet like most ciders and offers a variety of ABVs for every taste. Don’t pass them up at HEB or go in for a tasting and ask to speak to the head cider maker Nate, he’s always willing to talk shop (if he’s not busy!) and is very knowledgeable about Texas booze in general!“
“Michelle, owner of Namaste, catered an entire weekend retreat for me. She did an amazing job! The food was wonderful, the presentation was beautiful, & her presence was a welcome addition to the group! If you're looking for healthy food that tastes delicious, you definitely want to eat here.“
“First off, loved the fact they refurbished an old car dealership and kept the sign! Awesome. The wine was delicious. We had a flight and each of our selections was well crafted. The store is cute - we had to buy some of the wine glasses! And we loved the large outdoor patio. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Great, enjoyable experience!“
“I'm visiting from NC and my friends took me to Fredericksburg for lunch and do some wine tastings! I love wine and I drive for a wine tour company. So on vacation, it's my turn to do some tastings.I wanted to stop here as I saw the Longhorn statue standing out in front.The winery is beautiful. I loved the atmosphere of the tasting room. We were welcomed as we walked it. I was hoping to do a tasting but the wines were not what I would drink, which is fine, and also I really didn't want to pay the $30 for the tasting that I most likely wouldn't enjoy.I gave them 5 stars because of the outside view of the winery, the atmosphere in the tasting room and the friendliness of the staff! I'm not going to dock them a star because of my preference for wine. To each their own!“
“We were put on a wait and were seated faster than the estimate given. They said as long as we answered the phone when they called, they would hold the table - so we were able to wander to some nearby shops while waiting. When we got seated, drink order was taken almost immediately. Once food was ordered it came out in about ten minutes and was hot and delicious. I had banana pancakes - soft, fluffy and hot! Very good. My wife had biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon. All of it was freaking perfect! We are just visiting but if I lived here, this would be a go-to breakfast stop!“
“Super cute spot outside of Fredericksburg, they have a brewery and a winery! A couple of us did a wine tasting and a couple of us got the beer flights. The Lager was good, the Blonde was not good, the IPA was decent and the Amber was a little too sweet. They have a good selection of different wines, dry or sweet. They have a wine tram which was soooo cute to take you from the winery to the brewery and back. A manager came over and checked on us, that was very nice.“
“As members of Safari, we brought our daughter and son-in-law to enjoy the wonderful wine and atmosphere.Casey (KC) was in charge of our group and she was so knowledgable, professional, friendly and fun that our guests decided to join the club as well.On the other hand, we came back the next day to celebrate our daughters 30th birthday (yes, that day was her exact birthday), and even though we were all member now, the person that served us, denied any special treatment for the birthday girl by telling us that "as members, we already had a complimentary glass of wine".We left very dissapointed by the second treatment they (she) gave us.“
