Planning Your Augusta Wine Country Dining

One of the best ways to enjoy the Restaurants in Augusta MO is to let your meals become part of your Wine Country experience.

You don’t need to plan every meal before you arrive.

Enjoy lunch at a winery while you’re out tasting, save a special restaurant for dinner, or take an evening drive to Defiance or Washington when you’re ready to explore a little farther. And sometimes, after a full day of adventures, the perfect evening might be coming back to H.S. Clay House and enjoying something Kelly has prepared for you.

Remember that weekends can be busy throughout Missouri Wine Country, especially during festivals, concerts and peak seasons. If there’s a restaurant you really want to experience, check ahead and make a reservation when available. A little planning leaves you more time to relax, explore and enjoy your getaway.

Dining While Exploring Augusta Wine Country

Want to make lunch part of your Wine Country adventure?

Several Augusta and Defiance wineries offer food ranging from pizzas and shareable plates to full restaurant experiences. Planning one of these stops around lunchtime makes it easy to enjoy the wineries without having to interrupt your day to search for somewhere else to eat.

Dinner & an Evening in Downtown Washington

Want to turn dinner into a night out?

Historic downtown Washington is just a scenic drive from H.S. Clay House and offers restaurants, bars, shops and a beautiful Missouri Riverfront. Head over for dinner, enjoy a cocktail or craft beer, walk along the river and make the evening another part of your Missouri Wine Country getaway.
