This is a really cute, intimate setting. The happy hour deals are great, usually select bottles of wine are half off! Try the wood-fired olives and the mushroom pizza is my favorite.

Drinks & Nightlife
This spot is more of a beer garden than a bar, they have tons of great craft beer on tap but have an extensive list of whiskeys. It is also a bakery upstairs so the baked pretzels are great. They also cure their own meats and serve Antonelli's (a local shop) cheese.

Sightseeing
This is Austin's community paint park that is the only of it's kind in the US. It's a space for "muralists, street artists, arts education classes and community groups the opportunity to display large scale art pieces driven by inspirational, positive & educational messaging." Basically, it's a place to see some really rad graffiti.

A store filled with unusual items at sky-high prices. This shop is more of a fun place to see... it's located in the So-Co shopping district so the prices are really high since it's such a touristy area. There are cool other fun shops in the area like Lucy in Disguise with Diamonds and Allen Boots.
