The Bistro at Flat Creek Estate: A Taste from the North Shore of Lake Travis

Written by Sandra Spicher | December 29, 2015

Take 1431 west from Lago Vista, a left on Singleton Bend Road and another on Singleton Bend East, and follow the scent of woodsmoke to the Bistro at Flat Creek Estate.

Not only a vineyard and winery, Flat Creek Estate is a fine destination for delicious food that fuses Hill Country fresh with international style. Local artists also sell jewelry, gifts, and cards from the adjacent Tasting Room.

Reservations for the Bistro are required and easy to come by: call 512-267-6310. Gratuities are not accepted, but you’re welcome to leave a donation for the nonprofit World of Children.
