We visited with a large…read moregroup of 10+ people, and while the indoor space felt a bit tight but cozy, it ultimately was not enough room for a group our size. That said, it actually would have been great for a big group if the weather were good, since there is tons of outdoor seating available. The staff was friendly and the ambiance was great. I really loved that they had live music outside, but it was too windy for me to sit and fully enjoy it. I ended up staying for only a couple of songs and wished I could have stayed longer. An interesting setup is that wine flights are purchased outside, while glasses are picked up inside, which was a bit unexpected but easy enough once you figure it out. The wines were nice, nothing that really stood out in a good or bad way, but very enjoyable overall and perfect for a beautiful day spent outdoors. The crab fries my friends ordered from the food truck outside was fun to eat too, definitely satisfactory for those with munchies when you drink. Overall, this feels like an ideal spot for smaller groups indoors or larger groups when the weather cooperates. I would definitely come back on a nicer day to fully enjoy the outdoor space.

I just noticed that even though I have visited here before, it is my first time writing a review for this spot. The only thing I usually get here is their Sangria, since they don't serve wines, I prefer. When we visit, we always get a table closer to wherever the musician is playing as it is now covered and enjoy the food from whatever the visiting food truck is on that day. For our recent visit, the food truck was DM Sliders, and the musician was Shane Gamble. The day we visited was a relaxed day and so we enjoyed it. Food was good. Music was even better. The employees I came in contact with have always been very helpful. Parking is plenty in their lot.

We visited for Father's Day, and everything was amazing!…read more We started with the buffalo chicken chili dip. I expected it to be served hot, but it came out cold--still delicious, though. We also ordered the giant pretzel, which was really good. We tried a variety of drinks before taking the tour, which costs $10. I highly recommend booking it online ahead of time. Our tour guide was fantastic--very knowledgeable and engaging. The tour lasted a little over an hour, but if you need to leave early, you're free to do so. After the tour, everyone in your group receives a tasting, and the $10 tour fee can be applied toward the purchase of a bottle, which we ended up doing. Pho on Wheels was there as well, and it was amazing. We'll definitely be back! They have a few chairs under the cover outside, but I would definitely recommend bringing your own or a blanket to sit on. They have live music, which was amazing, not too loud.

What a great time. I visited Song Dog for the first time last week. Everyone was so inviting and…read morenice. As soon as I walked in I was greeted by the bartenders who immediately fell in love in with my dog lol. Since I was meeting one of my friends I decided to sit at the bar which was cool. I was able to get acquainted with the bartenders who shared some history of the distillery and gave great suggestions for food and specialty cocktails. I ordered the Song dog old fashioned first. It was delicious. It was a little on the sweet side but still had the edge of an old fashioned. Next, I ordered the Penicillin cocktail which was very flavorful with honey, lemon, and bourbon. My friend ordered the Hibiscus highball which he really enjoyed. He mentioned that it was on the sweeter side but was still strong and enjoyable. The ambiance was really nice. Song dog is located in the middle of farm land so they have plenty of space on the grounds. They have outdoor seating as well as fire pits which is always a good time. Inside they have bar seating as well as tables. Sometimes they have food trucks come by which is always nice however, they do sale snacks as well. They are very dog friendly too (if you couldn't tell by the name LOL). They gave my dog water and were very accommodating to any need that he may have had. Overall, it was a great time. I will be back soon!

The cider pairings were also well executed and just so good. The pours were also very generous. Just loved it. I hope Kristin and Doc Ciders continue to partner and provide these wonderful dinners for years to come. The red barn also provided a perfect backdrop for the event. It's so rustic and just made the overall dinner memorable

The slushie is amazing and a must try. Not tart or too sweet. It's like a marg but cider. There are alcoholic and nonalcoholic options. They also sell the best cider donuts - so insanely moist - but they always run out so get that first!! SPACE: the lots by the apple picking is small. There is a hut where the drinks are sold and then a few picnic style tables. The other side is massive and has several tables and some umbrellas. There are also food trucks. They sell hard ciders and slushies at both locations

I need to get back soon to try out these charcuterie nachos!

Recently changed ownership and they are doing a great job revitalizing the place. I've been going…read morehere for about 9 years now, first as part of a post running group hangout and now as a local watering hole. They have a rotating selection of beer on top, seasonal as well. A wide selection of wines, and chilled beers are also available. There are so chilled wine bottles and single beer cans you can buy and enjoy at the location as well. Plenty of indoor seating, and outdoor seating too. They also host live music and trivia nights! There are areas for improvement though. As I said it has new owners, but the place is old and desperately needs an interior remodel, and new outdoor seats/tables would be great as well. Food selection is also wanting - chips are the only thing on the current menu as far as I can tell. To sum it up, a great local business with new owners that deserves your support! I just hope the new owners but a little TLC into the place to improve it!

First driving up, I immediately thought how gorgeous this place was! The first things I noticed…read morewere all the beautiful flowers and the fire pits. There are definitely plenty of tables, and it also looked like you could bring your own chairs and sit out in the grass, which would be nice. I also loved that they have an adults-only section with no playground for kids--which is perfect for me because I don't have kids, haha! We went on a Friday afternoon shortly after they opened, so there were only a few tables occupied. We ordered food from the food truck and got the chicken Caesar wrap, Smashburger (although I'd honestly just call it a burger because the patty was HUGE!), and pork rinds with pimento cheese. Everything was pretty basic, but you can only expect so much from food truck food. The pork rinds were extremely hard--I couldn't even break some of them with my hands--but the pimento cheese was really good. For drinks, I got the strawberry and cream sour, and my boyfriend got the Orange Crush. Both were really good! Since it was such a sunny day, though, they did get warm pretty quickly. Overall, we had a great experience and really enjoyed the atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

The inside is quite spacious and there is a separate room where they have the machinery and some room dividers and kids can go there and play. I saw a lot of people order their pizzas and carried it to go. I was curious how good the pizza was, but I was on a diet on this day. The one thing I really liked about this place was the ordering system. You scan the QR code, place the order and it comes to you. I just love these systems. Never had to deal with flagging someone down to pay the tab or finding a way to split the check later. With a large group like ours (10+ people), it was a good place to get together and hang out. I wished they had more larger format tables though. They had TV screens playing the Fifa games when we were here.

Not only can you enjoy a pint/flight of beer, but they also have refreshing cocktails and delicious food. The pizza (from Mosaic Pizza) and wings are a must. They also have plenty of shareables that you don't want to skip out on. They can get crowded, especially when they have specials events. I also enjoy the fact that this spot is family friendly- there's something board games to play. My family and I have been a few times now, and definitely plan to be back for more.

We recently celebrated my mother's 80th birthday at Spark by Hilton Germantown last Aug1, and the…read moreevent was a wonderful success. My mother was extremely happy, and our guests truly enjoyed the celebration. The event space is spacious and beautiful, with plenty of room for our decorations, dining tables, entertainment, and dancing. Since there was no other event scheduled that day, we were generously allowed to decorate in advance, which made our preparation much easier and less stressful. The kitchen area and available food warmers were also very convenient for serving our large group of guests. Dennis was friendly, professional, and very easy to communicate with. He clearly explained all the available options, answered our questions, and offered helpful suggestions throughout the planning process. Ariana was also extremely helpful. She assisted us with the room layout, open-bar arrangements, and room discounts for our guests. Her recommendations helped us use the space effectively and made the entire celebration run smoothly. We are very grateful to the entire team for helping us create such a beautiful and memorable 80th birthday celebration for our Nanay. We highly recommend this venue for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, and other special occasions!
