    Love the vibes, love the drinks, love the food and the service! It's a great space with area for kids to be able to run around and play as well. Lots of shady and sunny spots. Great drinks and lots of speciality drinks based on the season and all well-priced. Go here! You'll have fun either as a couple or with friends!

    Came here on our first stop on a quick trip to Austin. Located a little outside the city. The grounds of place are nice. Well manicured setting. Great parking. Huge patio and park like area out back. It felt like a cool place to kick up your heels and stay a while. Hang out, play games, meet up with friends etc. Or just enjoy good weather. It was a warm day, but we sat outside under the fans and covered patio and it was not too bad. Drinks- I was torn between cocktails. But decided on the Electric Lady, which was a special. It was very boozy. I think the server was trying to hook us up, lol. Service- I give a good score, I did not catch his name but he was friendlt enough. He gave our friend a military discount which was nice. And everyone's drink was EXTRA boozy really. It was an easy fun first stop.

    - Vibes: modern rustic, limestone, trendy Austin energy - Crowd: packed at Friday happy hour! - Menu: lots of drink AND food choices - Value for price: 5/5 (strong drinks, delicious and affordable food) - Service: 5/5 (very friendly) - Parking: big lot but it gets full Having tried Deep Eddy's before, I brought my parents here for a taste of Austin liquor and vibes. The dining area is a front/back porch with some heated seating at tables or picnic benches, and there are several high tables/couches inside as well. We showed up on a Friday at 6pm, and had to circle to find parking/wait for a table- it was packed! Definitely arrive early if going for happy hour (4-7pm weekdays). We tried the following tap cocktails ($5 single and $7.50 double pour during happy hour!): - spicy springs: flavorful, not too sweet with a japaleno kick - Cherry lime spritz: no added sugar, light and tastes like a seltzer. Good for lightweights :) - Apple crisp: holiday vibes, sweet, tastes like light spiked cider - Spiced girl: personal favorite/strongest drink, can't taste the gin but the cardamom and lemon are FANTASTIC. Good for heavyweights :) - Big fig: also holiday vibes, also can't taste the gin but the fig and rosemary are aromatic and flavorful And the following food: - Chips + salsa: classic, only $4 for HH - Chicken tinga tacos (3): flavorful, juicy, generous on the meat- my favorite item - Pulled pork nachos: good, not too much meat but yummy toppings and decent portion size - Bbq grilled cheese: rich, meaty, delicious but heavy. Great chaser to the strong drinks!

    We wanted to do something for brunch after church and it just so happened that we heard Dripping Springs Distilling was helping support the recovery efforts in Texas after all the floods so we chose this place. The place is very nice - plenty of parking, stuff to do with kids (climbing apparatus, corn hole, etc), and most certainly good food and drink! We chose the "bloody mary bar" - this comes with DSD Vodka, along with a large variety of things to put into your bloody mary from spicy mix to regular tomato juice, to adding bacon, olives, celery, the works! And it is all for one price. We also chose their biscuits and gravy, eggs and bacon. All the food and the fancy bloody mary was very good. They make ordering easy thru a QR code at your table. All in all it was a great experience! If you are looking for something new to try, give this place a go. We give it five stars.

    10/10 always. We've been here over a dozen times. NOPE we don't see our frequency as any problem other than we LOVE great service, great food, amazing consistent drinks made from scratch and chill vibes which this place always brings. A total gem in Dripping Springs. You will miss it if you are not looking for it because there isn't a huge sign from the main road off 290 right before you get to DreamLand going west. You turn up on a bumpy road and think UM is this where it's supposed to be? Yup! And its awesome. Like pulling up to a Rich Aunt's house who has the best booze stash ever and an awesome backyard to chill and let your kids run around like wild baby chickens. They have a fully fenced in lot so no lost kiddos. Or hubs! The happy hour is Amazing!! The food and drinks you can't go wrong. You scan the qr. pay at your table and magically the drinks and food find you. Its dog and kiddo friendly. Inside (ac) and outside (heaters for the winter) there are plenty of seating. Tv's to watch sports. Food is NOT out of a food truck. They have a mix of tacos, pickle chips, delish fries, grill cheese, burgers, lovely mocktails, tons of reg and seasonal vodka drinks and a nice burbon says the hubs ...1876. I hate writing such a nice review bc its our fav place to hang on the weekends. They also have weekend brunch which we've yet to get our act together and try. Also they have tours.. we've yet to go on this too. One day soon! A must visit for sure!!! Great for a girls night, brunch, date, out with the kiddos. Go support this amazing local spot!!

    Dripping Springs Distilling is a lovely distillery just outside of Austin. Here you can enjoy a delicious cocktail, try a variety of foods, and relax both indoors and out. We sat outside, as the weather was nice, but even as it got warmer we had plenty of shade from the canopies of the majestic mature trees on the property. Also, there are yard games and a play area (jungle gym) for kids You can order using a QR code listed on the table. There are so many cocktails to choose from ranging from traditional to incredibly unique. There is also plenty of sharables and finger foods to order When we were there (on a Sunday) there was live music outback. We had a lovely time just enjoying being outdoors... but there is indoor seating as well, and it's just as lovely Some tips: Order multiple sharables for the table like their fried pickles, chips and queso (or guacamole), and hummus tray. I don't know how often this happens, but an hour or so into our visit the kitchen was unreachable through the app, and I was told it was due to a backup of orders in the kitchen. So, order early just in case. Also, there is a Bloody Mary bar where they pour you a glass of vodka and you can add your juice and other garnishes. You also get a discount of vodka refills Cheers!!

    Great tasting room with enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff. Ambiance is like a high end Napa winery, but Vodka instead of wine. They have indoor seating. Three bars. Plenty of outdoor tables and chairs too. They manufacture Dripping Springs Vodka, as well as lemon and orange flavored Vodka. They also offer Gin and botanical Gin. All spirits are made on premises. For me, Dripping Springs is my favorite and all I buy, so very cool to visit where it is made. They have food but we didn't eat, although it looked good. Most staff are great. A couple of grumpy too cool attitude types management should move out. I didn't waste time with em, just walked over to someone that was smiling and pleasant, which is almost all of the staff.

    I literally cannot recommend a visit to DSD higher!! I came for a tour with a friend, and true to the west Texas alcohol experience if you will, their tasting room/bar (which is apparently new since 2018) is absolutely stunning!! It has a very modern appearance with an open and bright indoor bar/seating area with lots of natural light (tons of glass windows/glass door leading to the patio). The patio itself is also very inviting with several benches and tables, and they have space heaters and TVs - my friend and I sat outside and enjoyed our drinks for 2 hrs while other groups watched the football game on TV. There is also a little play scape area with swing and slide for kids, and the day we were there, there was a live musician who was singling Christmas songs with a mix-table. Families had their babies in strollers, kids running around playing on the groups, and dogs as well. It was an all-around super family friendly, fun, and inviting space!! As for the tour itself: our guide Steve was super knowledgeable, very friendly, and very easy to talk to! He showed us all of the distilling process, from the special distilling containers they use, to the larger mass producer (Carl), to the packaging area, which also includes the area where they distill their gin and bourbon (since vodka isn't the only thing they make). I actually don't much like vodka from prior experiences, but I came away from this tour with a renewed respect for the flavor of the liquor. Same goes for the gin and bourbon - it was very interesting to try the super high proof gin while in the flavoring process!! You can really smell and taste the flavors that go into it, especially Juniper. On a last note: the tour ends with you trying some bourbon, and you get to keep your DSD shot glass that you drink from. They also give you a token for a drink off the menu, so my friend got the blackberry smash cocktail, and i got the holiday pie since I like sweeter drinks. We both loved what we ordered, and of course they're made with DSD vodka. The bartender was very friendly and explained all the drinks we asked about too. Overall: DSD is a new favorite spot of mine, even though I've never been a liquor person (other than in cocktails - which they do of course have!). The place is inviting, and very comfortable to sit and hang out. Since they sell food too, you could easily come and spend several hours just hanging out here. It's accessible from Austin with a car (only like 20-30 min out from south Austin); if you're in the city and like trying drinks, I cannot rec paying a visit enough!

    Happy hour is on!
    Celena S.

    I absolutely love this place!! It's beautiful, very clean, has super friendly and knowledgeable staff, and the food is delicious and to top it off, the drinks are ridiculously delicious!! I have been so many times and always forget to review them. I love they have mixed cocktails on tap! They are consistently great! The happy hour prices cannot be beat! I went for a few functions in the back room and the staff are able to handle the large groups and accommodate everyone ordering at the same time. It is a little bit loud in there so maybe some noise dampening panels would be helpful. The bands they have outside have always been fun to listen to! All in all I highly recommend Dripping Springs Distilling

    We really enjoyed our visit to Dripping Springs distillery. The staff there were very friendly and knowledgeable. Our tour guide Seville (hope I didn't butcher his name) was Awesome and he also helped me thief my own two 375ml bottles of 8yr bourbon. Can't wait to come back. Cheers

    I did what I could with what they had. My pancake plate is stone cold and pretty inedible. All thanks to the omelet guys only!

    Do I need to make a reservation for Sunday brunch?

My favorite was the Old Fashion Cocktail and the Texas Bourbon Whiskey. We went into the Bottle Shop & Mercantile building which has a tasting bar with tables & chairs, and a sitting area with a big screen tv. They have lots of outdoor seating area to enjoy with live entertainment. Pet friendly. You can also do a tour of the distillery which we did not get to do, but will go back soon to do it. They also sell those beautiful whiskey barrels at a great price. Definitely recommend this great place to hang out with friends, enjoy some good whiskey with a fun atmosphere.

Lots and lots of outdoor patio seating, food truck area, large indoor seating, tasting bar, large ordering bars, gift shop, games, and lots more.

    This was my first, and sad to say, my last time doing this festival. A friend who had been a few…read moretimes before highly recommended it and when I balked at the $40 (plus a $3.50 processing fee) "pre-event discount price" with the at the door price being $50, he assured me it was well worth it because there were so many great food and wine vendors, you get your money's worth. This was absolutely NOT the case! Firstly, this whole thing just seemed disorganized at best and I am sorry, but for $50 ($40) they could have gotten a much nicer location than a dusty, stiflingly hot cattle stockyard! As for what you get for $40, 6 drink tickets and 10 food tickets when drinks and food run you anywhere from 1 ticket for a meager barely 1oz pour for most of the wines to several tickets for very small portions of the food, you barely get $10 worth of food and drink! You can purchase ticket for $1 a piece, which is most definitely not worth the portions or pours you receive. As for the vendors/vintners at the festival, there were not nearly as many as you would expect for the price point and the layout was just haphazard. Also, there were several vendors that were out of food by the time we got there just after 2pm...the "festival" was supposed to go until 6pm...so how the heck were vendors running out of things w/4hrs left!?! The only highlight, for me at least, was the grape stomp, but even then, they ran out of tshirts to "stamp" with your grape-soaked footprints. In any case, my $43.50 would have been better spent and enjoyed at an actual local restaurant where I could have gotten multiple full pours of wine and actual food instead of leaving this joke of a festival hungry, overheated, more sober than when I arrived, and feeling like I had just been scammed somehow. Lesson. Learned. I am honestly shocked this "festival" has lasted 10yrs let alone one!

    I had a lovely time as the guest of a coworker. However, I felt like the overall value wasn't quite…read morethere for this event. Drink and food tickets went way too fast when some places asked for multiple tickets for less than an ounce of wine or a small sample of food. The actual value was about $1 per ticket. There were also some vendors that were somewhat rude or rushing. The whole point is to get business by having people try your product, right? Well there's some wineries I'd think twice about giving my money to after their lack of friendliness. The options for food was more limited than I expected and many ran out of food even though we got there just an hour after the event started. There are lots of raffles going on and free koozies and pens galore. The arena was stuffy inside and though fresh near the doors you ran the risk of also eating dirt. The music was good but there needed to be more sitting areas to relax and open a bottle of wine. I will definitely go back next year, but I do hope to see more offerings.
