Pact's serves really good tacos and they DON'T skimp on the ingredients. We love getting a taco or one of their traditional dishes and sitting out on their patio in evening.

Holy Crap! Julie's is pretty new but they do some of the best hand made noodle dishes that I have ever had. Julie is super sweet and the noodles are fresh and handmade. I suggest also trying the soup dumplings. They take 15 minutes to make but they are yummy.

Drinks & Nightlife
They built the bar in Ireland and shipped it here to be built, again. That's commitment. Best pint of Guinness I've had in town. My favorites are the black and tan and cream stouts. This is the place to go when you want food, but you want to get your calories with good alcohol instead.

Parks & Nature
On a 100 + degree day, you will want to dive into spring fed water that is a consistent 61 - degrees. Sit at the top of the tree lined hill, get some sun, and go dive in. The pool is open until 10:00 so you can swim all day or take a dive before dinner. The back lot is less confusing to park in so use the South Gate directions. When your done, hit one of the many eateries on Barton Springs Rd. or grab a fresh juice from Daily Juice.

Essentials
Deep Eddy is another one of our spring fed pools that stays super cold even on the hottest day. Parking is sparse so get there before 11:00 Am if you want a spot up close. Otherwise, there is plenty of parking on Veterans Dr. and you will have to walk a little bit. BUT, there is a Daily Juice on the way in so grab something yummy and get your swim on!
