Things To Do
Con Madre Cocina
While it might be divisive to take sides, Con Madre is home to our favorite breakfast tacos in Austin. Afterwards, take a scenic drive up through St. Edward’s for a gorgeous view of downtown Austin and reminisce through Monica and Michael’s old stomping grounds 🐐
Jo's Coffee – South Congress
Every St. Edward's student in our day will tell you that Jo's Coffee was their lifeline. Visit the original location on South Congress Ave and take a photo in front of the famous "I love you so much" mural. Bonus points if you can guess how old this picture is! 😱
De Nada Cantina
One of our favorite Mexican spots in town. Load up your plate with tacos on their homemade blue corn tortillas. For fans of Mi Cocina, you’ll love these margaritas!
Terry Black's Barbecue
A trip to Austin isn’t complete without some Texas barbecue! Pairs best with a few rounds at Butler Pitch and Putt and a crisp local beer.
Barton Springs Pool
For those brave enough to do the Polar Bear Plunge, this natural spring is an Austin staple and stays a cool 68-70 degrees year round!
Butler Pitch & Putt
Need to get in a few swings while you’re visiting? Butler Pitch and Putt is a historic, 9-hole, par-3 golf course perfect for all skill levels! If anyone is wondering where Michael is during the weekend, check here first…
The Boardwalk at Lady Bird Lake
For our active friends and family, taking a stroll on the Boardwalk along Lady Bird Lake is a wonderful way to experience the outdoors that Austin is so well known for. Rowers beware: Monica is still known to relive her glory days by critiquing your form from the comfort of the shore.
🍻 Breweries 🍻
Choosing your favorite brewery in Austin is a lot like choosing your favorite child, it just can't be done! While we will be celebrating Friday night at Central Machine Works, below are a few more of our favorites if you're thirsty for more: - Pinthouse Brewing (home of the famous Electric Jellyfish IPA) - Meanwhile Brewing (the best merch!) - The Austin Beer Garden Brewing Co. (aka ABGB, great for live music) - St. Elmo Brewing Co (right next to the Austin Winery)
