Fun Bars

Donn's is the absolute best dive bar if you're looking for live music and a little swing or two-step dancing. It's located inside of an old train depot with cheap drinks, twinkly lights, and a hoppin' dance floor.

Iconic Austin dance hall. They have free group lessons about how to do the two-step. Definitely can get crowded but fun if you like to dance!

Good Food

Best barbecue you can get in Austin without waiting in a crazy line! If there IS a line, you can grab a beer while you wait. The brisket will blow your mind.

Favorite pizza in Austin! There's always a line, so either go early or be prepared to wait (you can grab a drink at East Side Tavern across the street).

The best vegan ice cream I've ever had. Maybe even better than the dairy kind.

The original Chuy's! It doesn't feel like a national chain inside—they have really quirky decor and a fun vibe. Favorite things on the menu: their stuffed avocado or the Chicka-Chicka Boom-Boom Enchiladas (pro tip: get extra Boom-Boom sauce).

Coffee

This place is pretty close to my house and I love their lattes. They also serve breakfast tacos AND have a great patio with food trucks.

Sightseeing

Such a beautiful trail that wraps around Lady Bird Lake. There are so many points where you can enter, but my favorite is by the Austin High School tennis courts (which you can point your Uber to).

A gorgeous fourteen-acre museum and sculpture garden on the shores of Lake Austin. Great for when you're in the mood for art and nature at the same time. They also have a little cafe!

An Austin classic! The water is always around 70 degrees, so it's very refreshing on a hot day. There is a small entrance fee and you can't bring food or drink inside (they're very strict on that).

This little place is a 3-minute drive away from my house and has great quality Mexican food. My favorite are the shrimp fajitas.
