\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

I\u2019m finishing off my Girl\u2019s Trip <\/a>posts by talking about ALL of what we ate (and drank) in Brown County<\/a>. There is no shortage of eateries, wineries, breweries, and coffee shops in Brown County. Not to mention several ice cream places we didn\u2019t even hit up because we literally had NO more room in our stomachs\u2026. NEXT TIME!<\/p>\n

Wine<\/h4>\n

I already mentioned all of the wineries- some had free tastings, or they were free if you purchased a bottle. Others were like $5- which is a cheap way to try all of their different blends so you can pick a favorite. Here\u2019s my favorites from the wineries we tried (I do have to share that I\u2019m all about sweet wines so if you\u2019re more of a dry wine gal- this list ain\u2019t for you).<\/p>\n

Brown County Winery<\/a>\u2013 Vista Ros\u00e9- it\u2019s made with Catawba grapes which are my favorite!<\/p>\n

Chateau Thomas Winery<\/a>\u2013 I really liked the Strawberry Blush: bonus, it comes in a super cute bottle. But, I\u2019m pretty sure I liked ALL of the ones I tried there- because we tried pretty much all of the sweet ones they had.<\/p>\n

Salt Creek Winery<\/a>\u2013 Their Peach Wine and Cherry Ros\u00e8 were winners!<\/p>\n

I wish I took more photos of these experiences- but it was pouring buckets at this point so keeping my camera dry was a priority. <\/em><\/p>\n

Coffee<\/h4>\n

We also sampled coffee from a couple of places. The Daily Grind<\/a> was my favorite. They had a big menu with non-dairy options available (which wasn\u2019t true for every place that sold coffee and I REALLY appreciated that!) They also had some amazing looking pastries and muffins that were like the size of your head. If I hadn\u2019t already nommed on breakfast, I would\u2019ve partaken in some of those.<\/p>\n

Common Grounds was another coffee place we stopped at. The coffee was pretty good and the atmosphere has a very bohemian type vibe. You could hang out, read, sort through records, or put together a puzzle. A lot of people were just hanging out and talking- which gave it a homey feel.<\/p>\n

Food<\/h4>\n

Our Sandwich Place<\/a> is a Nashville staple. I\u2019ve been there several times over the years and it never disappoints.<\/p>\n

They sweetly gave my friends and I a gift card so we could swing by for lunch before we left town- and our food was a hit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

I had a BLT that was delicious and some extra crunchy crinkle fries which are my favorite, any day of the week. My friends also grabbed soups and sandwiches and devoured their lunches as well.<\/p>\n

My son and Hubby stopped by and joined us too- and I\u2019ve never seen my little guy eat so much lunch. He scarfed down their mac and cheese and chicken breast. He gave it 2 thumbs up- which is high praise in his book.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The decor is ALL IU and Bobby Knight stuff- because this IS Indiana after all. It\u2019s a fun, kitschy, delicious place to grab some lunch and I highly recommend it!<\/p>\n

We had dinner at Hard Truth Hills<\/a>\u2013 and though I didn\u2019t snap any photos, I did put the experience on my Instagram Highlights<\/a> if you want to check it out!<\/p>\n

While we were there, I had *maybe* one of the most delish cocktails I\u2019ve ever tasted- the Crimson Sour. It was: Hard Truth Cinnamon Vodka, St. George Spiced Pear Liqueur, honey syrup, lemon, and cranberry juice. The combo of cinnamon and citrus sounded weird to me at first. But, OH MAN! It was tasty. My fish and chips and pulled pork nachos appetizer were really good too. I\u2019ve been dreaming about their Truffle Parm fries (and cursing because I left my to go box ON THE TABLE!!!). I hadn\u2019t even heard of this place until some locals recommended it- and I am so glad they did!<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be back, because it\u2019s less than 30 minutes from where I live. I WILL get more of those fries. And that cocktail. Priorities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Breakfast<\/h4>\n

Honorable Mention to Ooey Gooey Cinnamon Rolls <\/a>where my Hubby and son had lunch when they dropped me off. We only went because Steven\u2019s favorite brand of cinnamon rolls are called \u2018ooey gooey\u2019 so he was intrigued. It\u2019s the tiniest, most adorable little place- and their cinnamon rolls were TO DIE FOR. Giant, homemade, and covered in caramel-y goodness. Steven has already asked about going back. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget Cornerstone Inn<\/a> for breakfast. I talked all about it in my last post!<\/a><\/p>\n

Like I said, there are so many amazing and delicious places to eat- you need to spend a week there to hit them all. But, I hope you consider the places I mentioned because they were all great ones to choose. There is a pizza\/pasta type restaurant I want to try next time, because my old fave closed down and it\u2019s in the same building. So, I\u2019ll be driving through there soon and stopping to try a calzone. <\/p>\n

Have you ever been to Brown County? What is your favorite place to grab a bite? I\u2019ll add it to my list for next time!<\/p>\n

Pin it for later:<\/p>\n
