Wine & Dine – Paso Style

Or join them on the weekend for a true taste of Paso at Ted’s Taco Bar.  If you’re staying close to downtown, start with a glass of wine at the JUSTIN Downtown Tasting Room, then hop on the wineries’ shuttle for a ride to The Restaurant at JUSTIN, raved about by locals and visitors alike.

During your stay, immerse yourself in the culture of Paso in the downtown dining scene. While our recommendation list is long (like really long), we’ve narrowed it down. For those feeling eccentric, dine at The Alchemists’ Garden – their cocktails are insanely Instagramable and drinkable. For those who can’t make up their mind when ordering, TASTE Craft Eatery is the perfect spot for you. Choose from several menu items with choices from gourmet sliders and bite-sized sandwiches to killer salads and ten different options of Brussels sprouts. Thomas Hill Organics features a changing menu with locally grown ingredients and a massive list of  Paso wines. Not to be forgotten is The Hatch Rotisserie & Bar, known far and wide for their fried chicken and wood-fired comfort food. And their cocktails.

Enjoy Latin American-inspired eats at La Cosecha Bar + Restaurant, with a seasonal menu and extensive wine list. Just a block away, Fish Gaucho is a lively cantina featuring modern Mexican fare and a world-class tequila bar. Lastly, take your taste buds to France at BL Brasserie and Les Petites Canailles.

The Great Outdoors

Get out on the pristine greens in Paso Robles, designed for beginners and pros. Set atop the highest point in Paso Robles, Hunter Ranch Golf Club is home to stunning views and a notoriously tough back nine. After your round, settle in at the Hunter Ranch Grill for delicious lunch or a Sunday brunch you will talk about for years. The newly renovated Paso Robles Golf Club boasts a beautifully conditioned course with panoramic views from the restaurant, bar, and veranda. With live music every Wednesday, Skins Games twice a week, and a lady’s golf on Tuesdays, it’s easy to join in on the fun.

Tour wine country with Central Coast Jeep Tours for an off-road adventure through rows of vines at Steinbeck Vineyards and Villa San-Juliette. Each educational tour will guide you through growing grapes sustainably to increase the longevity and health of the vines, the land, and the people. Customize your tour to tailor your experience and see Paso wine country from a whole new perspective.

For those traveling with kids, the Ravine Waterpark is the perfect way to beat the mid-day heat. For the brave ones in the group, barrel down the extreme waterslides and rides. If you’re looking for a relaxing day in the sun, simply cruise around the lazy river and rent a cabana with food and drink service.

Your trip to Paso would not be complete without a visit to the Field of Lights at Sensorio. The stunning outdoor art exhibit illuminates the rolling hills of wine country, and the popular attraction recently added a new Light Tower display: 6-foot towers composed of over 17,000 wine glasses light up the night with stunning colors.

5 Tips for Planning Your  Getaway to Paso Robles Wine Country 

1. Dates – While weekends are fun in Paso, consider planning a stay Sunday through Thursday for the best rates and access to Paso’s personalities. Experience more intimate wine tastings and a slower side of Paso with a mid-week visit.
2. Reservations – Reservations are required from lodging arrangements to wine tasting appointments and dinner reservations. Most wineries and restaurants offer online booking for a quick and seamless reservation experience. Don’t miss out on your favorite places – plan in advance.
3. Be on time – With guidelines in place to ensure a safe experience for all guests, businesses are on a stricter timeline. It is important to show up on time (or a little early!) to your reservation to make sure you have plenty of time to enjoy your tasting or meal.
4. Pack layers – While we’re warming up here in Paso, the coastal influence can bring a chill during the evenings. We recommend packing a coat everywhere you go, better safe than sorry!
5. Try something new – There is so much to do in Paso from playing disc golf at Castoro Cellars to relaxing at River Oaks Hot Springs. Do your research and plan something new for you and your travel companions on your next visit to Paso Robles.

We are so excited to welcome you back to wine country. Cheers from Paso Robles!
