Operated by Grinder's Switch Winery · Centerville, Tennessee
On a crisp afternoon outside Centerville, Tennessee, a small group can claim a private stretch of deck and gazebo at Grinder’s Switch Winery with a propane fire table, sticky marshmallows and a quiet view of rolling vineyard rows and hardwood edges. Fire Table & S'mores (Centerville) is a simple, social booking: reserve a fire table for the afternoon, bring friends, and let staff handle the fire and a S’mores kit that includes graham crackers, Hershey’s bars, marshmallows and roasting sticks.
For $25 the entire afternoon (noon to close) your party—up to eight people—gets exclusive use of a covered seating area under a gazebo or on the winery’s covered deck. Add-ons let you tailor the mood: extra s’mores kits, two sizes of charcuterie boards, or a Savory S'mores Box that swaps sweet marshmallows for roastable Brie, Babybel and local Duck River honey. Payment is due at booking; reservations require at least 24 hours’ notice and cancelations must be made 48 hours before your slot to receive a refund.
What makes this offering special is its low-friction, all-ages hospitality. The fire table is already lit on arrival so the first marshmallow meets flame within minutes, and the gazebo and covered deck keep the action comfortable when Tennessee weather turns brisk. The setting leans rural—vineyard rows, open pasture, and stands of hardwoods give the site an honest sense of place without theatrical trappings. That approachable backdrop makes the experience accessible for families, small groups of friends, or couples looking for an easy afternoon escape.
Practical notes matter: you must be 21 to purchase or consume wine on site and ID is required. Children are welcome but count toward your party total and should be supervised near the fire. The winery asks guests not to cook meat over the fire pit (hotdogs are allowed), to avoid burning trash, and to respect basic fire-safety rules.
This is a distinctly regional offering: a winery-centered gathering that emphasizes conversation, food, and a focused outdoor moment rather than hiking or formal tasting flights. For travelers staying in Centerville, it’s an uncomplicated way to sample local wines, savor a hands-on snack, and occupy a late afternoon without fuss. If you’re planning an easy, social stop between drives or a casual date, reserve at least a day ahead and bring a bottle—or let the winery help you pick one—then settle into a slow Tennessee afternoon of s'mores and good company.
Check-in is flexible: arrive at the time on your reservation and call (931) 729-3690 if you are delayed; staff lights the fire in advance so you can start roasting as soon as you sit. Reservations run September through April and are not available during summer months—plan accordingly. Book early, often.
Each reservation seats up to eight people under the gazebo or on the covered deck.
Fire table reservations are available from September through April; the experience is not available during summer months.
