Settle Down Easy - Oakton Tasting Room

We’ve been frequenting Settle Down Easy as a family….the new menu is delicious and the space is perfect for everyone — the kids can hang out while the adults actually get to relax and socialize (a rare win!). We’ve hosted team dinners and parent meetups in the past there as well. Every single visit the staff has been friendly, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. It has a great vibe, great drinks and truly feels like a neighborhood gem. We love that it’s not a chain — it’s great being able to support a local small business that’s doing it right. If you’re in the area, definitely check it out!

I can't recommend Settle Down Easy enough! This family-run brewery in the heart of Oakton has quickly become one of my favorite spots. The selection of beers is fantastic, and their wine offerings are equally impressive. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, making every visit feel welcoming and fun. Whether you're sitting at the bar or one of the many high or low-top tables, there's always a great vibe and interesting people to chat with. Also, there's regular entertainment with live music or trivia nights. The food is another highlight—delicious, fresh, and with generous portions that never disappoint. It's the perfect place for a date night, family outing, or even a solo visit to unwind. I look forward to returning again and again to enjoy all that Settle Down

Incredible food and a nice selection of beers! The location has a nice relaxing atmosphere too 😊 I tried the mac and cheese which was super creamy and delicious, and I also had the lentil soup which was nicely spiced! My husband had a chicken and bacon sandwich that he said was really tasty. We also shared the momos and a pretzel. I love the sauce that comes with the momos, and the pretzel was great! The beer cheese that came with the pretzel wasn't my favorite, but it also came with some spicy mustard which I did like. Even though the name of the business that does the food is the Fermented Pig, there are plenty of delicious options for vegetarians, which I really appreciated! We tried a couple of beers that were all good, but the standout one was a smoky beer which was quite unusual but

I was excited to try this new brewery out having visited their location in Falls Church. The interior feels clean and new, almost like a furniture showroom. The setup is interesting, with Settle Down selling drinks from the bar and Fermented Pig selling food in the back. I like the idea, but having to run two separate tabs in the same place feels like a bumpy customer experience that should be easy to solve. Food was the standard type of brewery fayre, all very well done and benefiting very much from the superstar fermented pig raw materials (+1 for using a local supplier). My friends enjoyed most of their beers, soda was the only non-alcoholic option. TV setup looks good for sports viewing.

You gotta love SDE!! Great owners from the community that established our go to beer, food, and fun. The service is great and staff very friendly. A place that they learn your name and make it personal. Whether it’s a quick beer, a family dinner, or a big event with friends, we always have a great time at SDE!
