Things To Do
Merit Coffee
This is probably our most frequented coffee shop for Jenn to get her coffee fix and Beej to get his breakfast taco fix! The coffee never runs out, obvi, but make sure you get to any of the locations early enough to enjoy the tacos!
Mañana
Grab a coffee here and hit the trail!
Lady Bird Lake Trail
There are many loops you can do of the trail so get your walking shoes, bring some water, and join the active Austin community here!
Barton Springs Pool
A local fav to cool down at!
Thinkery
We so appreciate anybody with kids understanding the wedding will be adults only. That being said, we know some are still traveling with their kiddos (yay), so we want to provide a few fun activities around town for the family. Thinkery is a fun childrens museum in town.
Littlefield's Tacos + Coffee
Tacos & Coffee - also a cute kids area!
Veracruz All Natural
Best tacos in town - many Vera Cruz locations around town, pick whichever one is closest to where you are staying.
South Congress Avenue
Cute little strip of shops, restaurants, and sometimes some live music!
Little Swedish
Jenn's bagel obsession has been fueled by this shop alone. Great breakfast or lunch spot. Chicken salad slaps!
South Congress Hotel
The bar here is where Jenn & Bryan had their second date :)! In Jenn's professional potato opinion, some of the best fries and aioli in town. *chefs kiss*
Rowing Dock
It'll be HOT, but renting kayaks or paddle boards on Lady Bird is a tourist staple. (pls do not jump in the river, it's...not clean)!!
Mount Bonnell
You can hike (aka walk up a strenuous hill of stairs) to find a beautiful overlook of Austin!
Two Hands
One of Jenn's favorite brunch spots!
Lin Asian Bar + Dim Sum
BJ has introduced all of the Wenz family to this local staple and it's an absolute must! The soup dumplings will leave you speechless.
Terry Black's Barbecue
Be prepared for long lines anywhere BBQ in town!
Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar
Two of the best chefs in town created Loro - an asian/bbq fusion restaurant. The wonton chips...GET THEM!
Gelato Paradiso
A fav of ours - they have the besttttt dairy free options!
Elizabeth Street Café
Jenn and her parents come here anytime they are in town, always ending with an order of the beignets (nom!!!).
