"What an awesome concept! Open a tab and order drinks or food from any of the bars, restaurants, or food trucks. Maybe it was the long work week and the beautiful weather, but everyone in my group was impressed with the venue and loved our time relaxing with food, drinks, and live music! I will be going back any time I am in the area!"

"This is a very cool spot that I was surprised to find, since I drive through the area regularly. A brewery, a distillery, 2 restaurants and a pile of food trucks with everything from ice cream to coffee have collaborated to form an open and closed air "park" where you can freely roam from one venue to the next to sample to offerings. Unified invoicing means you swipe your card and open a tab at one register and it follows you through the yard complex. There's corn hole and fire pits and a stage where a live act was performing on Saturday. My only complaint is that the act changed through our visit and didn't do a sound check so one act was much much louder than the other and myself and a few other tables decided to relocate further from the stage to continue listening AND talking. Maybe level set the music but otherwise a perfect day. Will return."
