Driftwood is unincorporated community in northern Hays County, in the Central Hill Country of Texas. In 2020, it was home to 100 people.
About 30-40 minutes outside of town in Driftwood, you'll get to drive through some beautiful hill country before arriving at this sprawling and magnificent BBQ restaurant. It's BYOB, cash only, and the all-you-can-eat menu option that will have you staggering back to your hotel. A satellite restaurant is in the airport, and is a great place to eat.
Located on the Mandola Estate grounds, this traditional Italian restaurant offers gourmet Tuscan options with stunning vineyard views. Very accommodating for groups, whether wedding parties or small events.
