What a great afternoon! This place is top notch. We found it…read morerandomly online and didn't know we needed a reservation. The owner welcome us is, no problem. He listened to what I said about the kind of wines I like and don't like, and even though I'm not a red girl, he gave me a reddish wine that was exactly what I wanted. I've never had anyone pair a wine to my pallet before. Five stars. We bought the bottle to have on the patio. Such a relaxing escape from the outside world. I heard they sold it today. A little bummed because the owner is so personable, but hopeful the new owners will offer the same great personal touch.

The Asian pear mimosa was a great balance of homemade pear syrup mixed with moscato wine. It was not super sweet like most traditional mimosas and had a unique flavor to it.

We are also glad that we could support this veteran owned winery.

for Twine Bulverde! It has quickly become our go to spot. I'll break down why below!…read more Food: everything is made from scratch by their chef. Our favorites are the wings (they are the best wings I've had), fries with dill ranch, the orzo pasta salad, fig and prosciutto flatbread and their caviar tater tots! I love how they have options for everyone and how everything is so fresh!! Atmosphere: may be my favorite part and here's why. Inside is adults only, so perfect for date night or a night out with friends. The decor is stunning and everything is soooo thoughtfully curated. Even their bathrooms are cute! lol Then you walk outside and everything transforms into the perfect family friends atmosphere with turf, a playground, and even a little playhouse for the kids to explore. The recently fenced in their playground which I love! They have comfy seating and cozy string lights. It's literally the perfect combo or aesthetic and family friendly! They also do live music on weekends and just recently did a Bubbles & Glow Sticks event for the kids. They also have a covered cigar lounge patio with a huge tv and couches. Now onto their drinks: AMAZING! I was able to speak with their two head bartenders and you can just hear the passion. They're always adding and testing new cocktails, and they have a great wine selection. My favorite cocktail is the Cucumber Twinetini! Service has been incredible. Everyone from their waitstaff to the bartenders to the owners are so friendly and passionate. You can tell the owners take great care of them and really care. This spot is located in downtown Bulverde and is a 12 minute drive from our house near Stone Oak. It's a small business owned by the sweetest husband and wife who have plans to expand into more restaurants and entertainment. I had to give them a shoutout because you can just see the passion and thoughtfulness that went into every detail. Check them out!

Which according to the sign outside, walk ins are welcome on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. What a cool converted homestead. If you are over 18 you can eat in the lounge, which is super nice, if you are under 18 there is plenty of seating out back. Plenty of umbrellas, flans, misters, etc. There is even a playground! Plus a stage for live music. I could definitely see hosting an event here. But our server was so great and took wonderful care of us. The food was super tasty... there were just crumbs left if you know what I mean. The bathrooms are on the approved list as well. I could definitely see coming for a girls night, date night, to watch some love music or bring the family. We will be back to see Oreo (the cat).

My husband and I went for a day date and it did not disappoint. The ambiance is great - really intimate, like you're visiting a friend's home. There's also outdoor seating but we stayed inside. The wine was delicious, from the dry to the dessert wines, ALL flavorful. But the very best part was chatting with the co-owner, David. It was like we were old friends picking up where we left off, except we just met! Cozy, inviting and in a cute part of Helotes. Hubby and I will make this a regular destination. We highly recommend Dawson's Creek Winery for casual relaxation but they also do events. We didn't try the charcuterie but will next time. Great place for a date, get together with a group or girls' outing. Go and enjoy!

The warmest atmosphere and welcoming environment from the minute we walked in. The food did not disappoin. The fresh warm bread, delicious shareable stuffed mushrooms, and then the generous portion entrees all hit the mark. Each entree had a melt in your mouth finish and the flavor was outstanding. We can't wait for the grand opening in about a week so that we can head back and taste the other delicious items on the vast menu. Don't miss out on this! I would be remiss if I didn't mention their fabulous wines as well. Last evening we enjoyed the Sauvignon Blanc. We can add that to our list of favorites from Singing Water. All around experience was a 10/10!

Great Vineyard, Frustrating Food Experience…read more This was our first visit to Singing Waters Vineyard, and the property itself is absolutely darling. The setting is beautiful, the staff at the vineyard were friendly and welcoming, and the wine was tasty. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and time with friends. However, the food truck experience was a big letdown and honestly the main reason we're hesitant to return. I paid $12 for a hot dog combo (pictured)--just a single hot dog and a small bag of chips. That price felt excessive for what we received. The kids' burger was $8 and was tiny...about the size of a quarter dollar with melted cheese and chips. The value just wasn't there. What made things worse was the service. Our friends ordered the exact same food right before us and received theirs much earlier. We waited about 40 minutes longer for the same order. It was frustrating, and it did make us wonder if my earlier comment about the hot dog price being extreme played a role. The kids were all still hungry. The vineyard itself is lovely and worth visiting, but I strongly recommend reconsidering the food truck setup...either pricing, portions, or vendor choice. The food experience didn't match the quality of the venue, and it definitely affected our overall impression.

My first visit I had red wine, in which I sadly can't remember where it came from, because I loved it. Both visits I ordered their smaller portion of charcuterie sans meat, extra cheese. Really enjoyed their offerings of nuts, crostini, & cheeses. But not so fond of the peach? I think it is preserves & dried fruit chews. Service is prompt & to-the-point, can't speak on their knowledge of the wines they serve. An overall great choice in a laidback part of your day!

You'd never think that a town like Boerne would feature a wine bar with such a diverse and…read moreexcellent selection, you'd be wrong. Cork & Keg is one of those rare gems that somehow marries the warmth of the hill country with what is often snobbery among wine-os. It manages to be welcoming to the newly initiated (i.e. just 21) and the more seasoned patrons, providing something for everyone with a selection that boasts excellent vintages from both near and far. If you're lucky enough to sit at the bar you may find yourself with one of the regulars open for good chat over a glass of their favorite on the list, or inspired to try something new. Don't be afraid to ask the staff their recommendations, as they are both knowledgeable and friendly, making the wine list as approachable as they are. Don't be afraid to go for your own custom flight as there are too many good wines to miss out on. The best part is, if you're not a wine fan, they have other offerings including beer, sake, and mimosas! It's my favorite stop when I'm in town and I've added new favorites to the list as well as snagged bottles to take back out of state for others to enjoy.

Plastic chairs treat you to a view of the highway. The barista- she was a not a sommelier- did nothing but complain to the solo customer at "The Bar" and cry about how her life sucked. There was not even any music to drown out her whining. Yeah, real professional. She was just a "wine pourer". Their are no "tastings" to be had here. Even if I needed a place to "get drunk" on wine I wouldn't choose here- the prices are ridiculously high. Seriously. A bottle of the same varietal and label was cheaper at H-E-B than it was for a GLASS of it here. The Cabernet I had tasted stale and old- almost musty/moldy. The wines did not appear to come from the vaunted "Cibola Creek Vineyards" (if that even exists). Sort of like a smattering of varietals purchased at H-E-B or Costco and up-charged to sell to here. I've been to wineries around the world: from Germany to Portugal and from France to Napa Valley... and this is not a winery- it's just a bar. I looked out back- no vineyards either- just cedar's and weeds. It's a bar that serves expensively priced, average tasting wine in a bar-like setting. Not the cleanest place either. The atmosphere is rustic hovel. Bare wood rafters, linoleum flooring and a crappy looking bar in the center. Plastic chairs treat you to a view of highway 16. The place looked and felt like a shot and a beer establishment. Where's the mechanical bull? We felt cheated and gouged. $45 for two glasses of mediocre wine and 2 chicken satay skewers. We won't be going back. A bad business idea for Pipe Creek.

Let me tell you -- worth the check out! First I need to give a shout out to Emily and Bronson -- they were very warm and welcoming, you can tell that they like where they work and that definitely makes a difference in the service industry. The inside is also warm and welcoming -- great decor, lots of seating (a couch!), and a great big bar with barstools in the middle of it all. It was really cold and rainy out, so we opted to stick inside for this visit, but they have fire pits in the back area, with tables and chairs and twinkle lights and all -- they even offer blankets and s'more fixin's to go with it. We tried their housemade Sangria and it was perfect. Just the right amount of sweetness. We also ordered the Charcuterie Plate -- they do not skimp on the goodness. Salami, ham, prosciutto, 3 kinds of cheeses (including brie!), different types of crackers, hummus, green grapes, red grapes, strawberries...I'm telling you, legit. I probably even missed listing some of the items, the spread was that extensive. Word on the street is they've brought some killer sliders to the menu recently, as well, so will be returning to try those ASAP. We were there in the early afternoon, so we did not get to experience this, but they have live music in the evenings and a trivia/karaoke night on Thursdays, we were told. Quite a nice little social meeting place they're building in this community. Go check 'em out! P.S. You have to see the bathroom walls. Pretty darn cute :)
