Locals call it Towne Lake--if it's warm go for a Kayak or Paddleboarding session. There are a bunch of companies that do hour long rentals along the lake.
In the mood to shop? Head down to SoCo where you can find fun local art or pick up a pair of cowboy boots!
For our nature-lovin' friends craving a nice little hike--this one's for you.
Were you in Texas if you didn't go to a Honky Tonk?
Bars in houses? You heard that right. Go for a Manmosa at Banger's or go down the slide at Unbarlievable. The world is your oyster.
Bars galore. Check out Star Bar, Little Woodrow's, Rustic Tap, Buford's, Greenlight Social or Dirty Bills (pro tip: we've listed the bars from chill to rager)
Asian Fusion BBQ - think Franklin's and Uchi had a baby, ok?
Best BBQ in Austin (without the three hour wait)
Food truck that serves HANDMADE PASTA daily. Nuff said.
I know ya'll have heard of Uchi Sushi. Hear us out...Soto is just as good, if not better, AND you can get easily book a reservation the week of (we hate booking months in advance too).
Farm to table and absolutely delicious. Amazing wine pairings and cocktails too. DO NOT skip the bread (comes with a honey ricotta spread)!!!
Mediterranean--stellar ambiance, think Instagram background and decor of your dreams. Reservation will be tough to get but you can always walk in and have a drink or two while you wait for a table to open up.
Tex-Mex! Get the Bob Armstrong Dip with a side of grilled jalapenos and onions, trust us.
French bistro--from escargot to chicken paillard to steak au poivre, they've got it all.
Modern Italian--lovely atmosphere with easy to get reservations. Tasting menus take all the work out of ordering.
Fancier Mexican food, but still very delicious. Cocktails are top notch, but they are very accommodating if you want any of their margs made skinny style!
Thai food truck. Their Killer Noodles and Pad Thai are so dang good.
