Grape Escape Complex
Grape Escape Complex Review
Just a short drive from Richmond, this rustic complex occupies an old farm shed. There are several crafts and homewares galleries and the very popular Grape Escape Cafe, which is open 10 to 4 every day. There's a playground out the back for the kids while you shop or relax with a coffee. The cafe has an all-weather veranda and outdoor tables for sunny days. Their food is seriously good as well.
- Address: State Hwy. 60 and McShanes Rd., Nelson, 7081
