Fantastic place to hangout, bring the family, kids, and dogs! Lots of space great drinks and even better pizza. Plus hanging out with goats is always a great time!
Enormous property with 70+ goat farm, kids playground, live music on many days, and food as well. Loved the atmosphere and wonderful for families but food/beers take 20-30 min to arrive on the weekends. Needs a better system especially for a quick beer pour. The smash burger was delicious, even if it took 30+ min to arrive
Bobby gives the best brewery tour you've ever had. The beer is fantastic, food is on point. Could not more highly recommend!
Fun place! Food and beer were good.
Had mixed feelings about this place but gave 4 stars nonetheless.
First the pros about this place were the staff was friendly, the grounds are huge and there were lots of places to sit and things for kids to do. Live music was good too. Plus I appreciated that they had a water dispenser with cups readily available. And the ordering via the QR code was kind of slick.
The disappointments were the food and the prices. We sampled a selection of things from pizza to burgers to Brussel sprouts. The Brussel sprouts did stand out a little bit. The sauce they put on them was great but they were burned too much. Pizza was lackluster and nothing special about the burgers. But prices were quite high for what you got.
Absolute gem of a place. Great beer, venue and a big shout to the Funkadelic Pizza 🍕🍻
I want to write this and stress that this is a fantastic place with incredible food. Gorgeous property, inventive ideas, and carries a solid inventory. The pickle pizza and gochujang pizza were outstanding!
Here are where things got a little murky. I went to see Midsommar on the projector screen. It was my mistake to assume that because they were playing a film that there would be a wifi situation. I asked multiple staff members if I could have the wifi password to call an Uber home and was met with this energy that really felt like disgust coming from the people who worked there. I walked 3 miles to the nearest town after the showing to find a ride home. I also took a two hour bus ride to Jester King because I had heard so many good things. This felt like a let down for me as someone who was really thrilled about it.
If I lived in the area, it would be easy to come back but I'm not sure I would otherwise. Again, bad ass food and location.
I have been in Dripping for almost 13 years and never made it to Jester's even though we have heard so many good things.
My brother is visiting, and he is a beer snob and loves to try different beers. He loved this experience here at Jester's, and it was especially wonderful because of the goats that's brought out on Mondays. It's something he would never experience where he is, so this was super special.
Their pizza was amazing, too. We would love to come out again as it's super close to home.
I have sampled several Jester King brews purchased from the store, and really like a couple of them. I have also heard good things about the brewery property, a good place to take the kids and dogs. So we decided to visit the brewery.
Upon arrival, we discovered that only one bar was open and the line was a bit long. But the problem is that the line was moving *very* slowly. We waited in line more than 15 minutes for a beer and a glass of wine! There were two employees behind the bar taking orders and pouring beer, and at least a couple more folks doing other things but not that busy.... they could have been helping out. Nobody moved quickly. I just got the sense that good service wasn't a priority.
Had a farmhouse ale that was ok, and it definitely had the funk character. But we won't be back.
It's an experience

Ordered two cans of beer. Took over an hour. Their ordering and fulfillment systems are beyond broken. Same amount of time for two previous orders of tap beer. Beer is great. Z Ordering process is awful
Took forty minutes for a beer and then an hour for food through the online ordering. Be prepared to just wait.
Let me start by saying I'm a bartender and currently manage a bar in Houston where we actively try to keep jester Kings kegs in rotation. Love their mission, and their product.
For us, it's a 4 hour drive to get there from Houston, not an easy to reach location, but our family decided to go out of our way to hang and spend the day. Unfortunately our experience there was so bad we didn't even stay to finish our hummus.
If anyone from jester King would like to reach out, I'm more than happy to share my experience.
One of our favorite breweries
Amazing place the gravel road was not a good time though.
