Get To Know Grapevine
Bingham Family Vineyards
Next to the Grapevine Visitors Center on Historic Main Street, Bingham Family Vineyards opened this location in 2015. The Bingham family arrived in Terry County in 1916 in a covered wagon, and began farming in 1952. In 2004, they began farming their first crop of grapes. The soil of the Texas High Plains proved perfect for grape growing, and throughout the tasting room, you’ll see mason jars filled with this soil, which has a dark, fine, sugar-like consistency.
Through the years, the Bingham family has become a multi-generational wine growing family, offering award-winning wines featuring 100% Texas-grown grapes. The Grapevine Wine Tasting room offers 5 Bingham Family Vineyards Estates wines, along with a selection of cheese and cracker boards. In addition, some of Grandma Peggy’s beautiful watercolor artwork is displayed in the tasting room. It’s another fun wine-tasting option in Grapevine to entertain your friends and family!
Chill Bar and Grill
If you’re looking for a fun place to eat, drink and dance, Chill is the place to go. Located at the corner of Main and Dallas Rd, across the street from Hotel Vin, this venue is a great place to watch the big game, have lunch on the year-round pet-friendly outdoor patio, or just have fun with friends and family. Several big screen TVs are scattered throughout the restaurant, and there is live music weekly with a room for dancing as a local DJ spins tunes every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. You might even check in for the occasional karaoke night.
Their menu is quite extensive, featuring starters, sandwiches, burgers, pizza, wings and dinner entrees such as homemade meatloaf and chicken fried steak. Some of their most popular appetizers are Bacon Wrapped Shrimp and Roasted Jalapenos. Happy Hour is Monday-Friday from 3:00-6:00 p.m. and an extensive brunch menu is served on the weekends. Check it out, as it’s one of the hidden gems of Historic Grapevine!
Weinberger’s Deli
In a small space at the corner of Main and College St is one of the most popular Chicago-style delis in the state of Texas. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Dan Weinberger, who shared the history of this family business. Dan’s father Tom started the deli business in Chicago in 1952, with 5 stores over a 30-year period of time. Most of Tom’s children worked in the family business, but over time, they all decided to pursue other careers. As he was pursuing a master’s degree in biology, Dan realized that cooking was really his passion. He decided to take cooking classes and over the years, learning from some of the best in the business—specifically the art of sandwich making.
In 2002, he opened Weinberger’s Deli in Grapevine, which became one of the most popular businesses on Main Street. The menu is extensive, with over 120 different sandwich selections. As you enter the deli, the menu board above the ordering station lists the venue’s most popular sandwiches. On the opposite wall, you’ll find the “wall of fame,” with sandwiches named after famous folks in the area. The shop is small, but there are constant lines out the door every day of the week. Because of its size, everything in the deli is made fresh daily, as there is no space to keep inventory. The entire staff is very friendly and extremely efficient at sandwich making!
Bermuda Gold & Silver
Most locals know Bermuda Gold & Silver on Main Street as a reputable, trustworthy place to buy and repair jewelry. A family-owned business for 40 years, they clearly know their craft. One popular service they offer is redesigning older, heirloom jewelry into new, more fashionable pieces. It’s also one of the few places you can still get a watch battery replaced.
Their location at 404 S. Main is a 100-year-old building that was once a bank. Though it’s been remodeled, the wood floor is original, and they’ve kept the old bank teller’s window. Owner Debi Meek is an unofficial Grapevine historian. She can tell you all about the 1930s bank robbery by members of the Bonnie and Clyde gang. It’s clear she loves Grapevine, and she and her staff are very friendly and welcoming. As Debi said, “People don’t always remember what you said, but they remember how you made them feel.” No wonder they’ve been in business so long!
Talking Animal Books
Talking Animal Books is the only independent bookstore in Grapevine, founded after a successful crowd-sourcing campaign. The name might lead you to believe it’s a children’s bookstore, but it’s a shop for all ages. The store’s name came from the book, The Chronicles of Narnia, where the animals in the story shared their wisdom and helped the children find safety. Owners Valerie Walizadeh and Katy Lemieux had the same goal for their store. Family-minded features like changing tables and baby gates in the children’s area demonstrate their commitment to offering a welcoming, relaxed shopping experience for both kids and their parents.
In addition to a full calendar of events for kids and adults, they will also rent their space for private book club meetings. And don’t forget to check out their Local Writers section, which supports Grapevine-area authors. If you haven’t been in yet, it’s definitely worth a visit—just behind Bermuda Gold on W. Worth St.
Buzzed Bull Creamery
Who knew there were so many kinds of ice cream? Buzzed Bull uses liquid nitrogen to create their customized ice cream and milkshakes. The “buzzed” section of alcohol-infused varieties includes our personal favorite, Watermelon Margarita. They can do dairy-free, gluten-free, sugar-free—you name it. You can even order a flight of ice creams to sample different varieties. Owners Paula Eyre and her husband will arrange customizable “create your own” ice cream for special events. If you’re downtown on a Tuesday evening, stop by for “Singo Bingo,” a musical game of bingo with prizes. Located at 419 S. Main, it’s a fun way to beat the heat!
Sloan & Williams Winery
This veteran-owned local business serves great wine, but did you know they also offer wine-based cocktails? A full tapas menu, along with Sloan & Williams’ signature cheese boards, is perfect for happy hour. This venue offers live music every Friday and Saturday night and a jazz band on Sunday. For private events, speak to General Manager Danielle Scott. With a side room that can accommodate 13-15 people, it’s a great place for small, casual events, and can be reserved for $50 per hour. It’s another fun option in downtown Grapevine at 401 S. Main.

Once a month, they host the Bubbles and Barrels event for wine and whiskey tastings. They have a Friday night Pizza and Wine Event as well as a special New Year's Day event where they celebrate on Dublin time. The owners are so knowledgeable and make this venue a fun experience to visit.
