Things to do in Paso Robles, California
Enjoy Paso Robles Wineries!
Eberle Winery: One of the most beautiful parts of visiting Eberle is touring their underground caves. Free wine tours are offered throughout the day. Enjoy a tasting inside, on the patio overlooking the vineyard, or grab a bottle for a picnic.
Tooth and Nail: A castle with a moat and amazing wines! Inside there is a gothic feel with paintings that match the style of the wine labels. This castle is a fun stop for a bite and tasting some delicious blends. Make a reservation!
Le Cuvier: Up a hill, you will be welcomed to a unique tasting experience. Each wine is poured for you in advance to allow the wine to breathe. With each guided sip, a small bite is paired with it, so bring your appetites. Since it is outdoors, make sure you bring a hat and sunglasses.
Calcareous Vineyard: Overlooking the entire valley, Calcareous Vineyard offers not only spectacular views but unique wines and passionate staff to walk you through each of their award-winning bottles.

Firestone Walker: Probably the best-known brewery in the area, Firestone Walker offers a brewery tour, tasting room, restaurant, and gift shop.
Barrelhouse Brewery: Located in Tin City Paso Robles, Barrelhouse has become very popular over the years but offers beers on tap and a patio area with live music.
Visit Cideries!
