The public, spring-fed pool is a MUST SEE!! And then stay for hours. You do need tickets to enter, we recommend downloading the ATXswims app to purchase tickets.
Big park, nice view of the skyline.
A great music venue.
Famed Franklin BBQ now offers online ordering so you can skip their notoriously long lines. You may reserve online 42 days in advance. Terry Black BBQ and others also come highly recommended. (FYI Micklethwait is catering Friday's Welcome Dinner).
This upscale Mexican restaurant is famed for its homemade masa. Randy + Sarah can't stop talking about its margaritas and brisket tacos and well, everything. We recommend making a reservation ahead of time.
This was our first meal together in Austin. Tex-mex at its finest. We recommend the fajitas.
You can't go wrong with a cocktail from Kinda Tropical.
Burgers + tiki drinks! It's right above the Deep Eddy public pool along Austin's Colorado River. Cheap beers, pool, and golf memorabilia is at Deep Eddy Cabaret next door.
We sketched out our ceremony while eating Nixta tacos. The tacos are really, really good. But it's first-come, first-served, and you may have to wait.
