ATX: Things to Do, Food to Eat

Barton Springs Pool

1000 Azie Morton Rd, Austin, TX 78704, USA

Katie's fave spot! One of the crown jewels of Austin. Fed from underground springs with an average temperature of 68-70 degrees, ideal for year-round swimming. Refreshing!

Lady Bird Lake Hike & Bike Trail

300 1/2 Atlanta St, Austin, TX 78703

Take a stroll along the gorgeous lady bird lake! This trail runs along the Colorado river and winds through downtown, making it easy to stop for a quick coffee or snack while enjoying views of downtown. There are lots of parking options along the trail, but the address we wrote above is one of our favorite dirt parking lots under Mopac; it's usually not full and is just a short stroll to the Seaholm District (think: cute coffee shops and cute puppies galore!) Hot tip: you can also rent paddle boards/kayaks and get out on the water!

Broken Spoke or The White Horse

Two of the best dance halls in Austin! The Broken Spoke has a big dance floor and is a little further south. The White Horse is a cozy spot on East 6th Street with tons of restaurants and bars surrounding it. Go boogie!

Spicy Boys Fried Chicken

This food truck outside Zilker Brewing Company lives rent free in Nics mind. Yum!

Cosmic Saltillo

We love this spot for beer, cocktails, coffee, and good vibes. Grab a taco too and head to the rooftop patio!
