"La Diosa Cellars is a must-visit in Lubbock".  A tapas restaurant and wine bar with "great space" and "aesthetically pleasing" design featuring local and international wines. They are located hidden in the heart of Lubbock and the "decoration is fantastic, which is unique in Lubbock". "The atmosphere is absolutely amazing and the food is delicious" such as the "lamb dish". You will also love an "excellent wine selection" such as the "Bella Roja wine" or the "Lillet Blanc" and even the "house Sangria". Their "wine list is curated to feature wines that accompany" a "Mediterranean cuisine". "It NEVER disappoints" visiting and "the live music on the weekends sometimes puts" you "back in Paris".

McPherson Cellars is a former bottling plant, now a winery and industrial-chic tasting room offering guided tours. A place that is "so vibrant with its funky metal decorations and water features in the courtyard". It is "a lovely date-night place" and "on weekends" they also "have live music by local performers". This is a "great spot in the Depot District for wine tasting" and "definitely a must-see in Lubbock" especially with their "well-blended" wines such as the "Mourvedre" and the "2017 Sangiovese" or even the "2018 Roussanne". Their venue is also an event center where you can celebrate "parties and wedding receptions". You can contact them directly since pricing for their "wonderful" facility varies based on many factors.

Chef Cameron West and business partners Mike Nghiem and Brandon Wright, the brewery’s head brewer, established The Brewery LBK. Located at the historic Pioneer building in the heart of downtown Lubbock, the brewery is the latest addition to the West Family Hospitality Group, which also includes The West Table Kitchen & Bar and The Coffee Shop. Taking on a “chef-driven mentality”, the brewery features local ingredients in their brews. The Honey Blonde Ale, for example, incorporates cotton blossom honey sourced from a nearby orchard. The brewery even has a version of Lubbock’s popular signature Chilton cocktail that they call the Chilton Witbier. The two beers form part of a lineup of about 15 craft beers developed since the brewery’s opening in 2018.

Triple J’s Chophouse & Brew Pub can trace its roots back to 1978. The former Bigham’s Bar-B-Q restaurant has operated in Lubbock since then. As fate would have it, in 2006, a brewery closed down in the area, and an opportunity arose for the restaurant to acquire the facility. By August 2006, Triple J opened as the brewpub it is today. Triple J serves up an affordable menu including wood-fired pizza, steaks, and the best burgers in town. For pairing, there is an excellent selection of more than a dozen housed brewed craft beers, with about six available at given time. There’s also a selection of wines, spirits, and non-alcoholic beverages. Check their website or Facebook page for upcoming events and scheduled live entertainment.

The two docs in Two Docs Brewing Company are cousins Dr. Eric Cunningham and Dr. Tyson Purdy. Together with other Texas Tech graduates as investors, and head brewer Jason Watkins, the group opened Two Docs Brewing in Lubbock. All the founders and owners share common values – and a great love for excellent craft beers. One of these values is quality, and they will “never compromise the quality of the (beers) for any reason.” The brewery is located in the Arts District of Lubbock, and their beers include “a dark German lager” called Two Docs Bock, and Lubbock Light. The outdoor patio welcomes pets. If you’re hungry, check out their website and Facebook page for the food trucks on standby.
