“Sunday, April 22, 2024, my wife and I were entertained at Delaplane Cellars tasting room by our old friends Keith & Viqui Dill AKA the Dill Pickers. We had a fantastic time listening to some great Bluegrass and Blues selections while enjoying several glasses of exquisite wine. We are hoping that they will book the Dill Pickers in the future and give us more than one day's notice so we can invite several friends to their venue. The staff were very courteous and attentive to our needs. As a disabled Vietnam veteran, I sometimes am not the most graceful so when I accidentally knocked over my glass of wine the staff were there instantly to clean up the mess and replace my wine. Our visit was exhilarating and the views were beautiful.“
“We recently had our wedding at this beautiful location. We had been here a few times before and loved the beautiful scenery, good food, and good drinks. When we decided to get married within 3 weeks, this was the first location that came to mind. It's about an hour outside of DC, so it was convenient for our guests.
Christina answered the inquiry and immediately got to work. She saw our vision and with such short notice, it was executed perfectly. Christina is kind, professional, and damn good at what she does. From helping decorate the cake, manage the 5year old flower girls, and being a DJ, us and our guests were so impressed! Christina, thank you again for making this so special for us.
The rest of the staff was amazing and kind. The grounds are beautifully maintained. The catering was amazing, and the selection of beer and wine is perfect, as there is something for everyone. Thank you again to this wonderful business. We are so happy to have had our special day close to home so we can visit easily and make more memories.

“This is my happy place. The wine is good, the people are friendly and the views are exquisite. It’s only an hour 20 from DC but it’s gorgeous and relaxing. Great snacks, down-to-earth owners. Highly recommend.“
“I had a wonderful experience during my stay here. I stayed in the Adams room at the schoolhouse building. The room was beautiful extremely well appointed. The customer service has been absolutely excellent. We also had dinner at the restaurant which was phenomenal. Great menu and great wine list. I will definitely return. I’ve been visiting the Middleburg area for many years and this is my first time staying or dining at the Ashby, I’m so glad I have discovered it.“

“Stopped for a treat on Sunday. I got the last egg and cheese on a biscuit and hubby had a tuna salad sandwich and a blueberry muffin. Two coffees, fresh brewed. We sat at a table in the window and enjoyed watching folks come and go, inside and out.“

“This is the best restaurant in the area. Yes they’re fancier places, more expensive places, but this is my favorite. El agave is a very small chain. I love all of the food I’ve ever had here. Each time down you receive salsa and chips, and they are so delicious. The salsa is so fresh, and the chips come out hot and crispy.
Service is always excellent, the food comes out quickly and efficiently. I guess my favorite dish is probably fajitas. I got chicken topped with chorizo last time I was there, it was excellent.
I make it a point to stop here every time I’m in the area !!“

“Charming historic home in beautiful Hunt Country. Couples out for a casual night and expected superb food and service. Service was as expected, polite, pleasant and timely. Malbec was perfect. Foods ordered: Pot Pie, Risotto, Seared Trout and Steak Frites. The pot pie was flavorful but the coconut was unexpected - if the description had included coconut, we would have made another choice. The risootto was an ugly, baby-foodish glob on a plate. No discernable risotto could be found and the sensation in the mouth was as bad as the plate looked. Mushy, unappetizing. The blackened trout was well prepared and flavorful. Steak frites were tasty, but meat not trimmed well and some gristle made pieces unedible. The fries that accompanied were end pieces from potatoes, leftover from mashed potatoe prep? The prices were high, common for this area. Servings were plentiful but the food quality left us with "glad we went but won't go back".“

“We visited three wineries during our tour, and this one stood out by far for the exceptional quality of its wine. The experience was made even more special by the time we spent with the owner—warm, knowledgeable, and passionate. A truly memorable tasting, and we couldn’t leave without taking a few bottles home to enjoy!“

“To be honest I did visit Cobbler Mountain on a Friday and their website said that you should make a reservation. When I approached the door an employee said to come right in. I was excited because it is off the beaten path and I had no cell service to call.
The Great Harvest Bread Company was onsite for the weekend. They had a delicious veggie sandwich they took the cheese off of to meet my dietary needs. I am happy they were there because I had been hiking and was hungry!
I chose a flight of ciders (all were good so I can't recommend a specific flavor). The wooden holder they served it in was cute, but not practical. Be careful when taking it off the bar because the back of it is open. It will tip over if you're not careful.
I didn't get to see the tasting room because they were preparing for a busy Father's Day weekend. I had to go up in the loft or suffer the heat outside. The loft is not a fun place to be, I might add. It's stuffy and no one else went up there.
Overall it was okay, the service was average (except for the Great Harvest Bread Company). I might go back but it won't be my first choice.“
