"...experience the local flavor of Fredericksburg and leave sublimely satiated."

Our commonalities these days might seem sparse, as if there is no common ground on which we can all agree. Yet few things unite us like a great meal.

Samuel Johnson once said, "... a man seldom thinks with more earnest of anything than he does of his dinner!" Here in Fredericksburg we get that! Our highly skilled chefs and restauranteurs understand that our guests who are visiting from a neighboring town, as well as those who travel here from all the way across the world, only want one thing---to experience the local flavor of our little Burg, and to leave sublimely satiated.

And they aim to please!

No matter what you are hungry for, you can be certain when you visit Fredericksburg that our restaurants offer up an abundant table of mouth-watering choices, and that the romance of food is certainly alive here!

So drop in for a casual family meal, or make reservations for a table for two, and rediscover the romance of dressing up for an evening together and dining by candlelight. Either way you will most certainly enjoy a delectable meal while you are here, but we feel certain you will take home a delicious memory as well.

Wine

Come and explore the wineries in the heart of the Texas Hill Country.

Life is a celebration. Every day a gift. Plautus once said "Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words."

Sounds like a SPLENDID idea! What are you celebrating in your life that deserves a toast?

No matter the reason, or even the season, your choices when it comes to excellent wine available here in Fredericksburg are literally as big as the grand State of Texas!

If you are a novice or a sommelier it matters not, for wine is a continual and delicious discovery.

With more and more wineries springing up along 290 and every which way, to far reaches of the beautiful Texas Hill Country, each with a personality all its own, why not come and explore? Come for a Saturday afternoon out and about with the one you love, a fun day getaway with your best friend, or a delicious afternoon all to yourself. Relax with wine in one hand and a good book in the other, feet propped up and glorious sunshine smiling down. Let a glass of fine Texas wine help you unwind!

For more information on the vintners, the wines, and a fabulous map to find your way to the top wineries, be sure to visit the rated crushtxwineguide.com. Remember, we now have Uber service here in Fredericksburg, plus local taxis and too many wine tour companies to begin to list. We even have trolley service!

Crush Texas Wine Guide & Passport 1

Welcome to the Texas Hill Country

See the Color With your glass tilted to the side check the wine’s color against a white background. A Cabernet Sauvignon should have a deep red color.

Chardonnay should be clear and range from almost white to gold. A pale brick shade would suggest a Sangiovese.

Swirl for Bouquet It’s important to swirl the wine in your glass to release the aromatics responsible for its wonderful aroma. Perhaps you will pick up on chocolate and cherries in a rich red, or sense tropical notes in a Sauvignon Blanc.

Sip and Savour Chardonnay is full-bodied, creamy, and has an oaky taste from the aged barrels. As for the reds, the Pinot Noir is fruity and light, with a spicy taste; the Merlot is more subtle and smooth; the Cabernet Sauvignon evokes a taste of black currant and dried herbs. facebook.com/BestofFredericksburgTexas

In Fredericksburg, "proud German heritage is evident on every block..."

Laura Ingalls Wilder once said "Home is the nicest word there is." We absolutely could not agree more in Fredericksburg, TX. Here home truly is the nicest word we know, and for more reasons than we can count.

There is just something about our little Burg. Fredericksburg has a way of enfolding you when you drive into it. The wide streets invite you to explore, and the backstreets are a history book in and of themselves. Proud German heritage is evident on every block and pride of ownership is apparent in nearly every home you pass.

Those of us who live here really do not take our community for granted, and even if we should begin to, a short trip to the grocery store helps us to remember to be grateful, because even the every day quick trips around town can be like driving through a picture-perfect storybook!

It is so very true that where you choose to live sets the stage for the rest of your days. So why not set the stage beautifully with Fredericksburg, TX as the perfect backdrop?

Looking to relocate here or in the surrounding Texas Hill Country? Starting in the Spring of 2018, learn why people are flocking to live here, and get all the information you need to make your next move at QuestTexas.com,, your complete resource for Living Richly in the Texas Hill Country.

"...some of the best days of our lives haven't happened yet."

In our lifetimes there are very few days that we are bound to recall in detail. However most of us will almost always recall a vacation we went on, a special event we attended, or a new place we discovered.

If you are in the planning phase and searching for a place to celebrate a special occasion coming up in your life, we invite you to plan your next big event here in Fredericksburg — a place you can be proud to make new forever memories with those you love.

In Fredericksburg we have a reputation for being a friendly, welcoming and accommodating place because we are, proudly, exactly that. And when you plan a celebration here, you can be sure that all parties involved will help to see that you, and each and every one of your guests, will be greeted with a warm welcome, and will leave with memories that will last a lifetime.

Someone once said "what a wonderful thought it is that some the best days of our lives haven't happened yet." (anonymous) We couldn't agree more. All it takes is a little planning!

So! When beginning to plan for a special celebration in your life, we invite you to come and discover some of your "best days yet" here in the charming town of Fredericksburg, TX.

Fredericksburg~where you "can kick your feet up and let your guard down."

When is the last time that you forgot what time it was with someone you love?

Since true leisure is a rare commodity, and time spent well is one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves and to one another, we invite you set the stage accordingly for your next romantic getaway here in Fredericksburg, one of the most charming towns in Texas. Here, you will find a special place that comforts you, and allows you both to kick your feet up and let your guard down. A place you can celebrate both the important dates, and the dates you choose to make important, by reconnecting with one another.  Well thought out travel accommodations lead inevitably to a place to renew and rekindle, and eventually rest and recall the findings of the day, together.

Wouldn't it be nice if that place convinced you to turn down the lights, turn off the phone, and turn to one another? Such a place can easily be found here along our historical side streets, tucked in our quaint and lovely neighborhoods, or on the outskirts of town in total seclusion.

So make plans and make them soon, because while it is a certainty that you cannot make more time, you certainly can make time for the person you love, and make memories you will never forget, here in Fredericksburg, TX.
