Local Food Businesses in Cedar Crest (2)

"Drink what you like" is the motto of the Checkered Past Winery. They are located in the historic South Side on Lamar Building, "across the street from the Dallas police station". Aside from the "live music", they also have "a good beer selection if wine isn't your thing". They make their own quality wines, over 20 locally-brewed craft beers, and some of the best wines from Texas and around the world. They have a "fabulous wine selection and their flatbreads and cheese boards are amazing". They have a small kitchen but "they put out better quality food than 85% of the bars/restaurants in the metroplex". They're currently moving to a new location and we'll update the listing once they have settled in! Watch this space for developments!
