Fee $10 dollars. I paid for myself and two other people. A complete waste. There was one table with garlic. The rest were either nothing interesting, or wine and cheese with crazy lines for tasting. It seems the crowd just go to drink and eat in small amounts, but that justify the expense. So lines were long. Samples not enough. And people who traveled for the "event" were turned away. I was really into trying and buying new things. Ended up trying in a crazy hurry mustard and buying and a sip of two wines and buying, since I didn't want to completely waste the experience. So I paid total 55 dollars for a
Bottle of wine and a bottle of mustard if you add everything. Plus a wasted afternoon. Would not recommend it at all.

A Paradise for hunters and fisherman. They even have their own restaurant serving 2 and 4 legged wild meat. (hopefully not from the stuffed animals hanging and standing around the store.) Seriously,...they do have an awesome selection of quality sporting goods at reasonable prices.

We have gone to Grims at Breinigsville for years. This is the first time coming here.
We rode the horse drawn wagon ride (it's an independent company) and went through the corn maze. I really liked the maze; you're given a paper slip to get punched (6) as you go through it. This paper is also a weekly drawing for a free pumpkin. This forces kids and adults to go through the whole maze.
Amazingly the food is really good and reasonably affordable! They have juicy burgers, hot dog, home cut fries, soup, and churros.
There's an indoor location with a small hay maze, small corn box (instead of sand box), a faux cow to "milk", two saddles for pictures, and other products to purchase. They have pumpkin patch you can walk to or take the tractor pulled hay ride. They have a wooden mini golf area and a larger corn box for older kids in a mini silo.
This is a great place to go and enjoy the day! You will not be disappointed.

This is our favorite miniature golf place. We love the $2 Tuesday's in the summer. The grounds and course are well maintained. Then, the ice cream and snack bar finishes off a perfect date!

One of my many winery stops on Memorial Day weekend for a tasting! The tasting room was on the smaller side, but we snuck a spot at the bar with no problem as it was crowded. There was a live band upstairs that we caught...MoreThanks so much for posting the review, klj913! We're glad you enjoyed the concert - we'll be doing them until the end of September. If you ever get the chance to come up on a weekday, the Tasting Room is a little less crowded then!

Our group of 7 traveled to 3 different wineries; Clover Field, Vynecrest, and Folino's. They were beyond exceptional! Our tour guide Rich was absolutely fantastic and very knowledgeable. He was so friendly and helpful! From the very first time I contacted Rich to the end of our day he was extremely helpful, answered emails and questions in a quick, friendly manner. During our day Rich took many photos and made our day one of the best! I would highly recommend hiring Tasting & Tours for your special outing, without question. We all already want to schedule another tour with Rich! Rich, I cannot thank you enough for your generosity and exceptional tour. We will definitely be touring with them again!

I've been here several times, over the years, to pick up some of their lovely wine-themed gifts for special occasions, and of course, to purchase wine. They have a nice size tasting bar and very pleasant and helpful staff. They hold special events and are part of the Berks County Wine Trail. The grounds are serene/restful & there are tables outside for sitting and enjoying the relative peace & quiet. It's a nice place to visit. Plenty of parking.
