Skip the wine tasting. Instead come for a cheese board or simply buy a bottle of wine and enjoy it, picnic style with a view. It’s easy to relax here for hours.

Food scene
A few food places worth a visit while you're around. Note that the breweries also usually have good food choices.
Classic Italian American, in a beautiful vineyard. Pairs well with a visit to Vista Breewing. Top trick: order to go, and sit in the tables outside!

Well, this is a bit of a crazy, weird place. In a beautiful setting by the Blanco river is Pioneer Town - a full reconstruction of a Wild West town. Great with Kids, and the people running the Cowboy Museum (in the middle of the town) are fantastic.

This is a shop not to miss in Dowtown Wimberley. Whenever we walk in and smell the palo santo, we just immediately feel great. And maybe tempted to get a plant or two.

It's a Diner. True. But the location is perfect, and sometimes all you need is a big stack of Pancakes, or Chicken and Waffles.
