What a gem of a wine destination in Joilet! The building itself is historic, beautiful and…read morecastle-like. The staff encourage you to explore the house before settling in to do a tasting. Each room had its own character. I loved hearing about the rich history of the building as well as how it became the tasting room it is today. There were four of us who visited. A tasting is $20 for (8) sample pours. I was surprised at how good each of the wines were! Our group's favorites were the Sauvignon Blanc, 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, and Bishop's Blend. Jordan guided us through the tasting telling us about each wine and answering any questions we had. He did a great job at keeping our glasses full while also giving us space to enjoy. Overall, this is a great wine tasting option in the area!

We enter the venue. No one greets us and it is fairly empty. We ask a woman who walks through the main space, "Are you all open?" She says "yes", but never breaks stride. Another woman walks into the main space, we ask "Do we seat ourselves?" She replies, "Yes, you can sit wherever you'd like, inside or outside", before walking off. 3. We seat ourselves and wait about 10min for the server to come to our table to water. She provides an overview of the meadery and prepares to leave. We stop her and ask to place an order for the cauliflower pizza in the photo . She replied, "Oh, we don't serve that anymore. We use regular frozen pizza dough now." Wow, just wow. Why circulate false advertisement on the website? We left without ordering anything.

In 2021, I started making wine at home. Wild Blossom Meadery & Winery was where I could buy…read moresupplies that I needed. I had taken a winemaking class here, so I also could buy some of their kits if I didn't want to start from scratch with my own juice. Recent, I went to a Sunday brunch session that was really nice. The food was outstanding. And with the weather being nice, outdoor seating was an option that made the afternoon that more enjoyable. I had only been familiar with the wine, mead, and brewing supplies aspect of Wild Blossom. I like their "restaurant" setting. I may get back to enjoy some weekend events.

Brunch at Cooper's Hawk in New Lenox did not disappoint!…read more The patio was absolutely fantastic on a beautiful summer morning, our waitress was amazing, and the food and drinks were perfection. Honestly, it was one of those brunches where nobody wanted to leave because the atmosphere was just that good. If you haven't tried their brunch yet, put it on your summer to-do list. Grab a spot on the patio, order a drink, enjoy some great food, and spend a few hours catching up with friends. Definitely worth the trip!

Have only had an issue once with service and it was handled to my satisfaction. I enjoy the trio medallions or the pork chop when I desire to eat more. On the lighter side, I have fallen in love with the sausage and burrata flat bread, a delicate but flavorful bite. On this occasion, I grabbed a couple of friends and we participated in the 5K Wine Run. Oh what fun! I don't want to give away any spoilers but there is good wine included with your registration. Stay for brunch afterwards, but I encourage you to make a reservation. Although, it rained during the walk/run, it was warm and still made for a nice experience. The sun came out afterwards kinda like an additional reward besides our medal.

Our group brought small bites in and we noshed while tasting 7 different wines. Wines were very tasty, very good quality and the staff was very knowledgeable about them. Highly recommend for groups, for wine lovers and newbies. Will repeat and plan on bringing a light dinner and trying more micro crafted wines. Pricing for the tasting is very reasonable and if you like the wines you can purchase some to take home with you.

I called just two days in advance, and they were able to accommodate our group without any issues. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the selection of beers. The food was excellent across the board--from the chili and gumbo to the wraps and burgers. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. What stood out just as much as the food was the service. The staff were warm, courteous, and attentive, making a difficult day a little easier for our family. I'm grateful to the team for helping make our gathering such a positive experience. I know my dad would have enjoyed this place, too.
