Copper Barrel Distillery Speakeasy

Great staff, good drinks and delicious food. If you are in Wilkesboro N.C make sure you stop by for a meal and cocktail.

We went in for tasting. The bar was full with group of 4, so we stood behind to see about a tasting. The only person working never looked at us, never acknowledged us. Poor customer service.

This place was an unexpected surprise. The manager, Jennifer, served us and she was a blast! Great humor, solid recommendations, and accommodating great interactions with us.The food was fantastic! I say my husband's wings are the best, but the chefs at Copper Barrel beat his! Even my husband admitted defeat. The corn nuggets were yummy, like a gold at the end of a rainbow. The prices were definitely reasonalbe.I suggest locals make this a regular dining spot, and visitors stop in for an appetizer, meal, and/or dessert.

Visited with a buddy there Thursday afternoon Sept. 29th, 2022. Victoria was a terrific host and is the head bartender. Very informative and fun. The liquor is very smooth and leans more to a good rye rather than bourbon. They offer some interesting versions of fruit added to the base white moonshine. Well worth a stop now and again. Be sure to take home some goodies as we both did.

If you go through Wilkesboro and don't stop to visit Buck and George at Copper Barrel Distillery, you have done yourself a great injustice.
