Food Scene

Food is eclectic and savory. Not your typical fare. Reminds me more of a California style restaurant; clean lines, great lighting and superb service. A little more upscale, they describe themselves as “fresh, rustic and intimate. I’d say that’s accurate. Not stuffy at all. Has a nice deck and waterfall when the weather is nice. Dinner entrees range from $18-38. They do a Sunday brunch that ranges from $9-15.

Delicious savory or dessert crepes, made fresh to order! It’s a small space, with more seating outdoors. Not the ambiance for a romantic dinner, but great for breakfast or lunch. Vegetarian and GF options.

I’m including Starbucks because they are the only place in town open at 5am (5:30 Sundays) with a drivethru! Sometimes that is what you want early in the morning! The staff is great, and they are open 365 days a year, which helps if you’re here over a holiday!

This is the quintessential local’s restaurant! Kay will serve you breakfast in the morning, and you can always expect a table of old codgers discussing everything from local politics to the news or whether or not Indians should have had to register their tomahawks! Pictures of Willy are on the wall, and it has that down-home cafe feel. Food is what you might find in a diner.

Mazama roasts their own coffee and it is delish! They make all their food too, also really yummy. The quiche or the frittata with sun-dried tomatoes are favs for breakfast. Check out the back “quiet” room with couches and tables. Staff is always friendly, and the vibe is chill. A locals hangout!

Drinks & Nightlife

Right around the corner from us, without having to go back out to the highway! They have tastings every day, through they’re not open late, so I wouldn’t call it “nightlife”! The get busy on weekends, so great for meeting new people, but not for a quiet chat.

Great local spot, on historic Mercer Street in downtown Drip. Some great little shops within walking distance too. This is a casual, down-home and folksey kinda place. They specialize in Texas craft beers, and have wine also. Live music Tuesday nites.

A true, Texas dancehall! They lost their lease on Mercer Street, so they built a new place down on RR 12, just a little south of downtown Dripping. Live music, and probably some cowhands who can teach you how to dosie-doe!

Many of our Guests make this a stop on their stay! The Red Handed Whiskey is a favorite. You can tour the distillery too (check website for times). They have pub fare, Texas style, which includes BBQ, pulled pork sandwiches and they have a more upscale restaurant as well. Check their calendar for live music and other cool events!
