Dry Point Distillers

Wow. Talk about an elevated experience. My partner and I wandered into Stone Crow Gourmet grumbling with hunger and left with floating elation. We ordered a small salad to start, followed by the Amber Wave burger (note: the photo only shows half because we split it- the portion is huge!) and the (4) Crostini flight, including the Smoked Salmon, Tuscan Sun, Sweet Thai Chili, and Beetroot Hummus. Everything was fresh, delectable, well paired, and presented in an inspired, gorgeous and frankly, gourmet way. The name fits. As for drinks, we tried The Dalmatian and the Blueberry Lavender Sour. Dry Point Distillers offers an eclectic drink menu that hovers somewhere between extremely modern and classic vintage, pairing the two sensibilities into experimental instant-classic drinks. As the name suggests, they also distill their own spirits- and having tried them at locations all across the state, I can confidently report: Fantastic. This doesn’t even touch on the relaxed-yet-elevated atmosphere or the excellent music selection. You’ll just have to experience those things for yourself.

I would definitely recommend you visit Stone Crow Gourmet! I drove out there from El Paso, TX, just to try the amazing food from Chef Gary. When you arrive you are greeted by amazing employees, and just wait until you taste the culinary creations! I can honestly say this cuisine is like none I have ever had before. His use of fresh ingredients and attention to detail, will have your taste buds craving for days to come. I will definitely be coming back!

Absolutely fantastic venue where it is obvious that the chef takes pride in his work. The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented and large portions! A smaller venue, so with larger parties, it may take a bit longer for seating or food, but they accommodated our party of about 15 and brought out food as it came, so no "my food was left under a warming light for 30 min" here. Lots of different drinks (check out the secret drink menu!), too! Not somewhere for small children (I think after 7pm you've got to be over 21.) A hidden gem for LC!!

This is my favorite place in Las Cruces! The food is amazing and the chef is incredibly skilled and kind. The plating and presentation is also beautiful. The drinks menu has a large selection of specialty cocktails and all of the ones we got were on point! If I was a local you would catch me here every week!

The drinks are outstanding, and the food from Stone. Crow is amazing! This is on my list definitely from now on! The Chef, who was amazing did a deconstructed burger, substituting chicken for me and it was glorious!

I love the drinks at Dry Point—they’re always strong, well-crafted, and consistently great. I do miss when outside food was allowed. While the food can be delicious, the last couple of visits it felt like they were skimping a bit on ingredients, especially given the higher prices. If you plan to order food, I’d recommend being among the first—it definitely seems better early on. That said, I still love this place for drinks and the vibe. I’ll just plan to eat beforehand and come for cocktails. 🍸

This is a hidden gem of the desert. The food was phenomenal with a very unique blend of flavors. It is literally a tour around the world of unique and exciting flavors. In addition, the owner (which is also the chef) its an amazing and interesting person. I highly recommend visiting this place.

Inside of Dry Point Distillers has a hidden gem called Stone Crow where Chef Gary is truly an artist. This is my first time experiencing this amazing food, but my boyfriend has spoken about his amazing burgers for months. Chef Gary was very excited about his pesto creation, we ordered a plate for our table, we were not disappointed! The pesto is created with green and purple pesto grown in house. Definitely a must, however the Caramel Apple Toast has an amazing flavor which comes from the house made bourbon syrup, that makes you think of the perfect fall day. Last but certainly not least is the southern French toast, which comes with the most amazing whipped cream.

Cute little spot for cocktails featuring the Dry Point products. Apparently the hours are "flexible" (they decided to close more than 1 hour earlier than usual) so call ahead before making plans.

Fun place to stop in for a creative cocktail with spirits made from this distillery. Staff is friendly and attentive. There are plenty of options for seating. I tried the Oaxacan Old Fashioned with tequila, Sotol, bitters, lime, and agave. It was tasty and refreshing on a day that hit close to 100 degrees. I will definitely return to try more cocktails.

Fun new spot to try in Mesilla. The staff takes excellent care of its patrons. Fun cocktail menu organized by spirits that they distill-vodka, agave, and whiskey. I selected The Sombrero and it was tasty and refreshing. Will have to return and try another cocktail.

This place got me started on my old fashioned kick and I haven't looked back because they make them so good! A quaint yet vibrant lounge that has cocktails for every flavor. The dry spell bourbon has quickly become a favorite of mine and had made it a point to pick up a bottle to take home whenever I'm in town. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders make this a must stop whenever you're in LC!

Nice place but liquor wasn't very good. It's a fairly small bar/distillery with some food options next door and nearby; the bartenders were nice and we got a flight of their spirits, whiskey and mezcal, which didn't have much of a smoky flavor and was even somewhat plastic tasting. Maybe their mixed drinks were better but sipping on them neat just weren't great for us.

Absolutely delicious drinks and food. I got the lemon drop as my drink of choice and split the four piece crostini with my friend. The blackberry ricotta was by far the best with the smoked salmon coming in as a close second. All very tasty and so much larger and filling then what one would expect!

Fun little cocktail spot tucked away off of Avenida de Mesilla. Tons of drink options no matter what you're craving. I had a Mezcal Paloma and my husband had an old fashioned. Both were great! We also grabbed a bottle of bourbon to go. Prices seem very reasonable for a fun local distillery. When we arrived there were only two other people at the bar and considering the very small "crowd" I didn't find the two bartenders to be overly helpful or friendly. Felt like we waited a bit and they were more focused on chatting with the other couple. But having said that, I'd return again just to try another cocktail or grab a different bottle.

The establishment is small and cute. Came with a group of friends on a Thursday night and they were having Trivia. We were not officially participating, but it was fun. Their drink menu is very interesting and the drinks taste really good too. Not as strong as I would like, but the flavor profiles are quite unique in a very good way. Each spirit has a variety of creations, but of course you can also order your standards. I could not bring myself to pay $16 for their menu items because they seemed to be pretty basic (e.g. a quesadilla), so I did not order food. I wouldn't mind paying that if the food were more impressive. But 2 of 9 friends ordered food, and they seemed to enjoy it.

Everything was on point. Last time we came down Stone Crow wasn't there. Had our 21st anniversary cocktails Old Fashion & Amaretto Sour delicious. We ordered the Crostini Flight Wow just wow. All delicious savory presentation was beautiful. They took there time to do it right. Chef thank you So much.

The food from Stone Crow here is really good and steals the show. The portions are quite large, but yummy and shareable! Chef came to check personally on our table. We had a really nice time -- there was live music, great drinks, and great food. What else do you need? Thank you for sharing your talents! Can't wait to go back.

This is a multi dimensional review. Dry Point Distillers. This is one of the best bars in Las Cruces. They not only distil their own spirits, but they invent some great cocktails as well. Last night I had a double shot of Blue Corn Bourbon neat, an Old Fashioned with Rye, and two Kentucky Mules, all while participating in Trivia Las Cruces with my two new friends, Paulina and Steve. (We finished second). The mixologists behind the bar were great. They got my drinks to me with grace and speed and every cocktail was perfection. I appreciate the both of you very much, Dry Point also carries a small number of New Mexico breweries products, which, based on the chalkboard they were listed on much change from time to time. If you are looking for a great place to hang out with your friends for drinks, I can think of no better place than Dry Point. Stone Crow Gourmet Stone Crow Gourmet, owned by Chef Gary is located inside Dry Point as an independent entity. Perhaps one of the best things to happen was the joining of these two business. Stone Crow Gourmet takes a great bar and turns it into a great gastro-pub. I had the Smoked Salmon Crostini and I had to get a box to take some home. For those of you familiar with Crostini they are typically sliced baguettes with a smattering of goodness. Not these Crostini, these were full side French bread slice on the diagonal with generous portions of flavorful joy. I ordered the full order which was six Crostini and that friends was too much. I was able to eat two of them there, I shared one each with the aforementioned mixologists and took two home, one of which now remains after a great midnight snack. The Crostini also came with a fresh salad with tomatoes, cucumbers marinaded in something, tasty greens, all drizzled with Gary's house made vinaigrette I also got a chance to taste Chef Gary's house made Barbeque sauce and it is sweet and spicy bit of liquid magic, Can't wait to try it on a pulled pork sandwich or the rib tips. If you have been to Dry Point then you probably know everything I just said, but if you haven't been, and you enjoy gastronomical delights and great cocktails, get thee to Dry Point and Stone Crow Gourmet

Oh my, good lord.....this place is amazing and unknown. Mixologist Paola was nothing less than magical. Food was fresh and service was amazing. Tell no one:) thank you for a very good time.

Stone Crow Gourmet inside Dry Point Distillers in Las Cruces is a hidden gem. Though the menu is limited to a bite with drinks, each presentation is a masterpiece for the eye and your tastebuds. Tonight I had their Smoked Sausage Taco and the Tuscan Sun Crostini and the Italian Bruschetta Crostini. The marriage of flavors in each dish was unique and a very pleasant surprise for dining here in the city. Chef Gary will be serving more smoked meats in the coming months. Drop in one evening, sample one of the Dry Point Distillers' offerings and then dive into Stone Crow Gourmet's tasty delights.

Very nice, clean, good food but the Spirits are fantastic. My favorite was the taste of the Vodka. A must designation

This place is pretty small but has two bars. I had a cucumber spritzer that was wonderful. We ordered some crostini's that were very good. The chef came out to greet his customers, very nice guy. We played trivia but stunk at it. Unfortunately one of the bartenders was pretty rude and foul mouthed, so unnecessary. We may or may not return.

Blue corn bourbon is special. I mean special not "special". Knowledgeable staff. Great service. Unique. Goood food. I love this place. Regular normal, unpretentious, helpful. Off the beaten path, but that's exactly why it's on my list. Plenty of parking, no muss, no fuss.

We are from Illinois and this was our first time in Las Cruces. Needless to say we came here multiple times on our trip. The staff are so welcoming, the food is top quality ingredients and flavor, and the drinks are just way too yummy. If I lived here this is where I would be a regular.

Quiet, beautiful place with friendly service, drinks are in my opinion the best in town.

The female bartender is the best. She remembers us which was very nice! The drinks are fantastic. Love the blueberry lavender sour. Espresso drink was good. Fantastic place to be on a Friday Saturday night.

Cozy place and great atmosphere. Perfect place to have a couple of cocktails and hang out for a moment in Mesilla. The afternoon I was there, there was a band: nothing too loud, just a chill acoustic band. There's a taco truck outside that appears to work with the bar because they were delivering food to patrons inside. If you go in the afternoon, the sun will hit you on the outside patio. I usually order the Old Fashioned with Six Shooter Rye, but today I had the Colonel which is bourbon, lemon, and soda. It was really light and refreshing. I also recommend the Amaretto Sour. Highly recommend you check them out.

Drinks were very good. And not exactly sure how it works but I think it was Stone Crow that served food. They may be the same place or maybe not (same building and entrance) But whatever, we had burgers that were awesome and the guy that runs the burger part was so friendly and fun to visit with. We would definitely be back when in the area.

They have expanded the bar area. Lots more seating and quicker - much quicker - service! I took my son here when he came to visit. Breweries were getting a bit old for me. I wanted one of their really really good Old Fashions. The son had one of their local brewery selections of beer. But the place is not so loud you can't chat. The bartenders are conversational and pleasant. They make the best old fashion in town. This is the cook mixology cocktail bar I miss from living in Houston 30 years and it's right down the street from my house! Always plenty of places to park. Now more seating. Go.

The drinks are really good here. A bit overpriced for the amount of liquor that you get in each but I liked all the drinks I got that night. I had a girl next door that had Mexican coke,lemon, cherry vanilla bourbon and house made cherries. They had this on special the week before I went and had just enough ingredients to make me one glass. It was so very kind of them and I greatly appreciated them. In this drink you can very much taste the lemon flavor. I then had the lemon drop witch is very refreshing and of corse lemon flavor goodness. I also had the horchata drink and let me tell you this drink is strong. Good horchata flavor with cinnamon on top. My friend who was with me that night had a couple of the other drinks on the menu and was very happy with what he got.

Dry Point Distillers, a cool "neighborhood" bar with outstanding cocktails. They have all the equipment within view from the bar so you feel part of a science experiment. For some reason I expected to see Doc from Back To the Future mixing up spirits. Very friendly people who serve with a smile and energy. I had the gin fizz with stevia, an option on many cocktails. My hubby had the old-fashioned and we split the special blueberry lavender bourbon. All were just outstanding. Way to go Dry Point!

Probably my fave spot in the Las Cruces/Mesilla area for drinks! So cute instead, super yummy drinks and friendly staff always!

Stopped in on a whim, and discovered a gem! This is a great distillery that produces incredible spirits that make amazing cocktails! Super friendly service, and they take great COVID protection measures! Pictured here are the Blueberry Lavender Sour, and the Colonel! Cheers!

This place is sooo cool. First, this is more than a bar. They have their own small-batch spirits including bourbon, gin, and vodka. I highly recommend getting a flight to try several of them out. I admit I've always been partial to whiskey over bourbon but their Bluecorn bourbon was out of this world. I also loved the barrel aged gin. Next, they have a great selection of cocktails. I had an amaretto sour for the first time which was delicious. Also, they had some great live music which, by itself, was worth the visit. Last, but certainly not least, the service and overall atmosphere was great. They don't serve food but, not to worry, there's a great food truck outside with street tacos and they even brought them right to our table inside. I have to say, it's just great to experience a place that celebrates the tradition of high quality spirits in such an accessible and laidback way. 5-STARS

Great service, great drinks, & an awesome atmosphere. I will be back again for sure. Old fashioned is amazing & their specialty drinks look on point.

I would give the distillery 5 stars but thee attention to detail is lacking. I went in tonight and sampled the Vodka, Gin and Bourbon and also all 3 brandies. I ordered a bottle of the Malvasia brandy and when I got home an hour later I found that they gave me the Sangiovese brandy instead. While the Sangiovese was enjoyable it was not what I ordered, and that fact that i live 60 miles away makes it difficult to return it any time soon. All I can suggest is check your bottles before you drive off, otherwise you may be disappointed when you open your bag....

This is one if not my favorite places to go during the weekend. The drinks are amazing and the staff is always so welcoming and kind. The new remodel gives people more area to sit and mingle and two different bar locations on both sides of the place. They also have the yummiest food truck out front! Definitely go try!

A cute little one-room establishment on the edge of Mesilla run by two young men who brew their own vodka, brandy, and gin. They make good cocktails, although the mule tasted a lot better than the weird concoction called the "sad bastard." Due to how small the place is you are definitely going to have a conversation with the extremely friendly proprietors or the other guests. No food is served, but it's good place to grab a drink before crossing the street to eat at Salud or St. Clair.

Amazing hidden little gem! It was quiet and relaxing and all the drinks we tried were nothing less than perfect...will definitely revisit in the near future!

This place will truly serve you a pristine cocktail. Other than cocktails, the environment and vibes are very welcoming at any point in time! Awesome place and awesome staff!

This was a cute fun place with local spirits, awesome cocktails & friendly bartenders. Will definitely come back

Fantastic spirits and inventive cocktails, really just a great place. Definitely would be my go-to if I still lived in town.

This place is amazing! The drinks are superb and the atmosphere is relaxed and fun. You could almost miss it if there wasn't a sign on the main road. Very excited that another distillery has opened in las cruces. This is going to be my new spot!

This distillery is so cozy and the drinks are seriously delicious. This is our second visit and we haven't had a bad cocktail yet. The bartenders are super friendly and every drink is delicious. It's the perfect date night spot. I highly recommend it.

Such a good experience at Dry Point! Unique, delicious drinks! Just what Las Cruces needed!
