Walkable coffee trailer that also serves tacos, bagels, and a few other snacks. Plus the best shop dog Jake is always hanging out ready for a treat. About 15 minutes on foot, or 5 minutes driving.

Corner store with typical fare of wine, beer, snacks, and household goods. Also the best tacos in town. Order at the counter, and walk to the back to wait for them and gather some of the best salsa in town too. Personal favorite: flour tortilla with beans, nopales, avocado, jalapeño, and pico.

Late night french food spot with good drinks and music. I personally love sitting at the bar for dinner, and it's typically quicker than waiting for a table. They serve a perfect martini too.

Fun Japanese food spot a block away. Good for the more adventurous eaters, or anyone looking for a good cocktail. Recommend making a reservation online if planning more than two people.

Quality coffee in a great spot. Indoor and outdoor seating, you'll probably come across a lot of people studying in the morning, and hanging out in the afternoon. Light fare, mostly coffee, no alcohol.

Outdoor Things

Walk a few blocks south to Cesar Chavez and Pleasant Valley, and you can enter one of many Town Lake trails. Do a full loop or just explore the north side of the water. Great for running, walking, biking.

Outdoor Things

Neighborhood pool with some shaded spots and free entry. A good spot for when you don't want to travel cross town to Deep Eddy or Barton Springs.
