All of my friends and coworkers have been raving about this new place that just opened in Easton called Wanderlust Beer Garden, so I decided to give it a try. Well, let me be the first to tell you it's such a fun experience!
When we first arrived (my friends and sisters) the closer you got to the building you heard laughter. It was like walking into a little wonderland. There were string lights everywhere and see a cement path leading into the garden, huge trees overtop like a canopy, grassy areas, and live music. The ambiance of the place was great, it even had a patio with fireplaces.
While I was looking I noticed the park was very kids/dog friendly, with areas from them to play. The alcohol was located in the middle of the garden in an Airstream trailer, how cool?! Even the table we sat at had a cool movie prop from the airbender movie that came out recently. I have been to quite a few breweries/gardens- blue ridge winery, Retriever Brewing Co.- with similar layouts and not a single one I’ve been to had the same feel to it, inclusiveness, or cleanliness. It was truly unique in its style.
For the beer- it wasn't cheap, but it was good. It was $7-9 for 16oz beer. Eh. I tried a couple of different beers (ale, sours, IPA’s). The IPA’s were the best. The sours were a little much for me, but I did enjoy trying different drinks. I feel the prices of the beer are kind of typical for at a bar ordering IPA’s. The prices for food were also steep. A plus however, if you're not a beer person, they also have liquor options too!
I would recommend either going there before your meal, or eating before you get there. It is pricey, and when you're paying for pricey beer/food it does add up- quick. So just be prepared or at least aware you will spend a good chunk of money while there. In my opinion, it was worth it and I will go back again. To fully capture the experience, I’d recommend walking around the whole park. Follow the paths and you just might find their cool little Hollywood sign hanging around. So, make sure you bring a sharpie too!
