EL ALMA:

El Alma is an Austin Institution, where you know you’ll have amazing food and service every time.  Their patio is definitely the place to be at the restaurant, and my personal favorite are the salads for lunch!  NO matter what you order, you will have a great meal, enjoy!!

TIP: Open daily for lunch and dinner. Brunch on Saturday and Sunday. Reservations via Open Table. Various locations. 

LONG CENTER:

Long Center across the street from Sandy’s.  “Located on the shores of Lady Bird Lake, the Long Center is Austin’s iconic cultural center and gathering place. Built by the community for the community, we are your gateway to live entertainment and engaging events. ”  Our favorite is the Ballet and the Symphony, but the events they host are top notch in Austin.

TIP: Check website for latest events. 

BUTLER PARK:

Butler Park is across the street from Sandy’s Hamburgers, alongside of Long Center. This park has splashing fountains that will make any kid smile. There are plenty of trails so be sure to bring bikes. Butler Park borders Lady Bird Lake, with plenty of trails for walking and biking and the views cannot be beat while playing a pick-up game with family.

TIP: Pack a picnic and bring a plastic bag for your trash. Don’t forget to bring your pets on a leash! 

All locations within 200 feet of 603 Barton Springs Road.
