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!

ONLY RUNS THE FIRST SATURDAY OF EVERY MONTH. An enormous community vintage market, very much fun to visit. It's lively, has live music, and be sure to get there early to find parking.

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.

Downtown Wimberley

Wimberley is a quaint little village, and you can't miss at least spending a morning there walking around the Square. The first Saturday of every month is Wimberley Market Days - if you're around, make sure to stop there early!
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.
