“A group of friends and I reserved the Loft space at Lost Barrel for an event and had an absolutely great time. The food was fantastic, the drinks were great, the servers were all super nice and attentive and the grounds of the property and a delight to walk around and hang out in. Definitely recommend and will be back.“
“Beautiful views, good wine, new facilities are very nice with plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Wish they had things to eat other than cheese and cheese spreads and crackers/bread since they do not allow outside food, but a great place to enjoy wine and the scenery“
“The team at Fields of Athenry Farm Shop & Side Saddle Bistro is among the kindest and most helpful. On multiple occasions, whether I've placed a holiday order online, or simply walked into the shop, they've gone out of their way to assist me in selecting the perfect item for my menu, providing excellent product quality, and the most hospitable service. Visiting the shop is like being welcomed into their personal dining room. I work locally at BCT, and can say, whenever I have a chance to walk into town, this is one of my favorite places to visit, and a great option for a quick lunch too! They have been a wonderful catering partner for our office as well.“
“The interior has a very unique design, with market-like stalls displaying various products around the walls which are painted like the sky. The short rib sliders were pretty good, and the boursin cheese that came with it was an excellent pairing. I wasn’t as much a fan of the potato salad though. The potatoes felt undercooked, and the whole mix was a bit plain.“
“The food was fresh and delicious. Had the papaya salad, miso soup, and two specialty rolls. The MGM was excellent. Chesapeake Bay was also very good - lovely to have real crab vs imitation. It was a nice day, so we sat outside on the patio. It is on a parallel street to the main street, so it doesn't get people wandering by - it's definitely a destination spot. We were impressed by the selections - wish we could have tried more dishes!“
“I'm consistently happy with the food and service here. Occasionally the bar is closed due to special events at the resort so it's worth calling ahead. 4 stars instead of 5 due to our lunch bill exceeding $500 for 4 adults and 3 kids the last time we were there.“
“Wow! One of the best meals we ever experienced! We arrived early for our 5 pm reservation and had drinks in the bar. I asked our bartender, Payton, to make me something novel and I was not disappointed. We enjoyed sipping our drinks in the beautiful, wood paneled lobby. Later, we went into the Conservatory, to find that Payton was also to be our waiter. We opted for the Chef's Tasting Menu with one substitution, since I don't eat beef. They happily complied and my wife and I enjoyed the most interesting and delicious meal. I am not an adventurous eater and there were one or two things I would not normally have ordered, but I would have been missing out on some exceptional dishes. And each course was artfully displayed. Add to that the great atmosphere: sitting in a beautiful glass room, surrounded by forest, in front of the fireplace, very attentive service, it all made for one of our best dining experiences ever! Thank you, Goodstone.“
“It is a nice winery, with large outdoor spaces with tables and benches, great for a picnic. The site is very clean and well organized. Wine is excellent, but some wines are available only by bottle, not by glass. Unfortunately, you can't get "wine tasting" outside (you can only get a glass or a bottle). Place is elegant, but the bill is a bit more expensive than other wineries.“
“We had a really lovely evening here! The setting is beautiful, the wait-staff are great, and the ambiance is cozy and modern rustic. The foie gras is creamy and delicious, and there is so much of it (not a bad thing, please keep it all!!) that it definitely needs to come with more than 3 tiny slices of brioche. The scallop crudo was hands down the best thing we ordered--it was so flavorful, tart, and creamy! The mushrooms in the squab appetizer were awesome; everything had a delicate flavor and texture and was cooked perfectly. The lobster-salmon appetizer was pretty good, but what elevated it for me was the beurre blanc--holy crap, they nailed that sauce. The beef tenderloin literally melted in my partner's mouth--it is one of the best he's had, and definitely the best in the area. The dole with lemon-butter sauce was really tasty, and the addition of perfectly creamy mashed potatoes and salty greens were such a great complement; it was also a bigger portion than I expected, and I was pleasantly full after. My only request would be a better choice of desserts and cocktails; there were only a few things to choose from and they were all pretty basic--nothing called out to us. And the espresso machine was broken, so that was disappointing at the end of a meal that we had to drive quite a ways home from as well.“
“We were in Middleburg, and a friend recommended this winery. Of all the wineries we tried in the Middleburg area, this one was our favorite. The 2021 Norton and Albarino white were to die for. The Petit Verdot was also amazing.We saw a lot of negative reviews about the food. But we decided to try it anyway. We got the Thai pork belly, and the pesto panini. We can’t speak to the pizza, but what we ordered was really good. Highly recommend this winery. The food is good, the wine is good. The views are spectacular. What more could you ask for?“
“A relaxing location close enough for a short trip, but still has views of the rolling hills of Virginia. The owners, staff, and winemaker are informative and if you stop in around the right time, you may get an invite to help pick grapes or bottle wine enabling you to learn more about the process. This was one of the few wineries we've ever visited that both me and my wife enjoyed all of the wines. Children and dogs are allowed, though with some limits (dogs can't come inside due to new Virginia regulations and children are asked to stay on the ground floor). All in all, Cana Vineyards and Winery is a great place to get relax for a few hours when you get a chance, and then head down to Middleburg for dinner and shopping!“
