“lovely hill country gem ! i recommend visiting in cooler weather to enjoy the beautiful patio 🍷”

“Ethan and Stephanie were great, friendly, and very professional the food was great and me and my friends had a wonderful time here. I really liked the burgers, and the handmade drinks”

“I lived only 30 minutes from the Driftwood location of Salt Lick when I worked in the Texas Hill Country. I craved it then, but I crave it even more now that I'm nearly five hours away. So delicious and who doesn't want their picture next to the pit?”

“We had an amazing experience at Duchman Family Winery! 🍷 Our host, Richard, was outstanding — his exceptional knowledge and passion for wines made the visit truly memorable. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the wines were fantastic. Definitely a must-visit when in the Austin area!”

“I came here as part of a BBQ and Wine Tour and the service we received was fantastic. Our host (who's name escapes me too many great glasses of wine) was really friendly and informative and clearly passionate about Texan wines.

She provided all the details we needed and enjoyed every wine including a chardonnay which is not a wine I usually like and I decided to bring a chardonnay and a rose back home with me. Our host kindly packaged it up for me and it successfully made it home with me. If I ever end up back in Texas I would definitely come here again!”

“Thank you for hosting Pints for Pointers! We found a new favorite place. My husband loved the burger and we fell in love with the marzen. Super friendly owner and manager- great band, great weather! What a perfect weekend ❤️”

“Last weekend we ended our day of distilleries here in hopes of catching the astros game and ended up having the MOST FUN throwing axes and having drinks! So glad we found this place. Highly recommend!”

“I was visiting a friend who lived in the area, but I had to kill time while I waited for him, so I was driving around the area looking around. I noticed this big red building in the distance and just randomly decided to check it out, and to my surprise, it was a coffee shop! I didn’t walk in at that time, but fast forward a few months and I was in the area again so I decided to find this place and actually try it out. Fast forward again a year later to present day, and this is one of my favorite hidden gems I’m very glad I happened to stumble upon! Being that I live an hour south of Houston, I don’t get to visit too often, but the times I’ve gone, it’s always a pleasant experience. Great coffee, great service, cozy atmosphere.”

“Muy bueno excelente Atencion”

“We had a wonderful experience at Wimberley Valley Winery! The wine tasting was excellent, with a great selection and friendly, knowledgeable staff who made the experience even more enjoyable. After the tasting, we purchased a bottle of wine and a charcuterie board and spent time relaxing on the beautiful grounds. It was the perfect way to slow down, enjoy the scenery, and spend quality time together. We were celebrating our anniversary, and this was such a peaceful and memorable part of our weekend. We would definitely visit again the next time we're in Wimberley!”

“I tried a beer flight. All 5 beers were on point and true to style. The Belgian Amber was my favorite. This is my goto craft Brewery from now on. A true jewel to hill country brewing.”

“My son lives in Austin and every time I visit we go to Driftwood. Tomorrow 7/2 will be our 4th time to go. We get a bottle of wine and walk over to the bistro. Great service and their stuffed avocados and steak quesadillas are awesome.”

“this is a must! amazing food, great service. highly recommend”

“Fresh and delicious lunch with great service and views!”

“A great place! The gelato and pastries are very good and the atmosphere is nice. Pet friendly!”

“Love Love their food! Just go try it. You’ll return.”

“We needed a last minute breakfast pastry platter for a small wedding venue near by. I was recommend to this place by the owner of Home spun in Dripping Springs. It was 2 minutes to closing time & a very friendly young woman whipped up a beautiful platter for me to deliver to my Daughters future in-laws! Thank you so much!!! I highly recommend this wonderful place! We’ll stop in again sometime & enjoy a coffee & fresh baked pastries 🩷”

“On several trips to England, my wife and I fell in love with cask ale. Alas, upon our return to the states, we were bereft of options; those breweries with British styles (ESBs for example) were not committed to the cask. When we heard about Acopon, we knew that our next trip to Austin had to include a detour to Dripping Springs. And let me tell you, they did not disappoint. We had two styles of bitter, a British-style IPA, and a summer ale--all served on cask, and all the equal of many ales we had in the UK. A true treasure that every beer lover should visit.”

“Best brewery and friendliest folks in Drip! No matter you preference in beer, they have you covered. Great space to hang, inside or out and lots of great food options. Be sure to follow them because they host a lot family friendly events.”

“Everything was amazing!! The food, service, and ambiance- we ate outside and it was gorgeous! We had the fried brussel sprouts, BBLT, Ruben, pear house salads, and shared a crab cake. The crab cake is INCREDIBLE! Everything is sooo fresh and flavorful! My blackberry mule was one of the best drinks I’ve ever had!! So smooth!!!! And the panna cotta… so creamy and light and delicious! The ginger carrot cake was so moist and amazing too! I can’t rave enough!”

“I have been looking forward to trying Abby Jane, grain to table makes me so happy. We bought a donut, almond monkey bread, chocolate babka, and a sourdough loaf (pan). The pastries were amazing, it was 2:40pm and the donut was incredibly soft. The almond monkey bread was just sweet enough and I will be buying my sandwhich bread from them. My only issue was the chocolate babka was a bit dry and burned on the edges.”

“Authentic and amazing pastries. From savory to sweet, the owner knows how to show off the best of Britain! We had Scottish eggs, lamb pastries, cottage pie, chicken curry pastries, and classic sausage pastries. Delish!!”

“Beerburg Brewery is like going to a good friend's house for dinner. A relaxed atmosphere that is not trendy. Always welcomed with a smile. Not to mention a fun little 9 basket disc golf course that is more technical than long. Come by enough times and the staff remembers your name. That's always a good feeling to be welcomed like a friend. The beers are changed from time to time so it like going to a new bar and tasting something new without going to a new bar to try something new. Plus, all of the beer ingredients are native and harvested in Texas.”

“Absolutely the best food I’ve ever had!! The pastrami changed my entire life!! Bread pudding sundae???? Heaven on earth!! Bravo!!!”

“I saw The Shore on my Google map and clicked on the link. I saw their Happy Hour Menu and noticed they had 1/2 price Oysters and several other choices. We decided to stop there on our way back home. We got there at 3:30 and found that they would not open until 4 pm due to an earlier water leak. We asked if we could just sit at the bar until they opened because we really wanted to have oysters for our anniversary. The manager said since we were wanting oysters we could sit at the bar and get drinks and the oysters. Chef Cody explained all the different oysters offered and we decided to let him choose the oysters and we were not disappointed . He chose the gulf coast, summer time, Black moon and pink moon. All the options were fresh tasting with just a touch of saltiness . We also had the mussels with fries. We have not had mussels this good in a very long time. the broth was thick with butter, wine and capers. The grilled ciabatta bread was so buttery and crispy we ordered additional pieces. The calamari was lightly breaded rings and tentacles and were heavenly. We also tried the Hi Mexican Lager on tap, it was light and smooth. Our bartender was very sweet and helpful with our choices. We also would like to thank the manager who being so accommodating to us and making our 42nd anniversary so special. We will definitely stop there again!!!!!”

“Best BBQ in Texas, don’t think to much about it this is an amazing place to go and eat. Amazing customer service and the food is something else, I tried everything. The ribs are something else, give it a try. You will not regret it, I drove 1 hour and 30 minutes and it was worth it, I will be back again soon. Thanks Kelly for the amazing experience ✅✅✅✅”

“I really liked this place! Amazing beer, especially the hazy one! Very deep dense taste, and color???… A very professional approach is felt! It is with the soul and knowledge, as well as love for their work. Using the best quality ingredients. It was like nothing to me!Despite the rainy Saturday, there was amazing live music-guitar. It was wonderful.And I also want to mention the head chef Max! An incredibly radiant person! And what delicious burgers he cooked personally and brought them to his guests! It costs so much!!! Thanks to him!My son Max, 11, and daughter Marianne, 5, were delighted! It was so delicious! The most delicious burgers, they told me, and they are still the same.We also had time to watch our favorite football (of course, HOOK ‘em HORNS ?????) (the very beginning, and yet ☺️!!!).I would recommend this place with the most beautiful territory in any weather! Clean air, and somehow everything feels right, exactly the way it should)! Such a mood of the place!!!”

“Was a pickup order so no atmosphere rating. We ordered two burgers. The mushroom burger was slightly overcooked. Other than that food was good. Service time from order to pickup is great.”

“We come here often for frozen Palomas & Margaritas( they’ll make them to go for you ) and or to stop and watch live music. They have wonderful service, and delicious food and beverages. We love sitting outside under the giant trees strung with fairy lights. The atmosphere and scenery really make this place special! They are always extremely accommodating to our two toddlers and we always enjoy visiting! I would disregard any of the negative reviews, I think some people are just unhappy no matter what. This place rules!”

“Best food truck around. Eat here all the time. Good price, super tasty and friendly folks.”
