Matt's El Rancho

Great tacos, while she's still here! Recently announced that the property taxes are driving her out. But open for SXSW through to April. Sunday hippie church is great! The breakfast tacos are great and low-impact on your wallet!

Read up on this one. I'd like to say, "Only in Austin," but I think they are in Ireland, too. A favorite of our's, within walking distance and very friendly staff.

More a taco stand than a restaurant, but authentic, local, and good! We get breakfast tacos at least once a week here, but the quality only goes up as the day goes on.

Right next to Austin's famous HAAM (Health Alliance for Austin Musicians) is this popular local burger stand. Known for their all-natural beef, they make it when you order. Authentic local spot, too. Eat in the friendly confines of a convenience store, or bring it home.

Drinks & Nightlife
I'd call this a great neighborhood pub. They do special things, like kick-ass gumbo on Mardi Gras. Always busy, but usually plenty room for a table. Darts, pool, and games are available, as well as a great patio out front to watch Austin flow on by.

Spacious and friendly brewpub, with plenty of acreage inside, and twice as much outside. We love it on Sunday afternoon, when there's a danceable band playing. Be ready to dance, or get out of the way if you're near the front of the room. Watch the music schedule to see what's happening. Saturday nights will sometimes surprise with some awesome swampy blues, or rock and roll, or whaddevah.
Family friendly, as well. Some gourmet offerings, as well as plenty of pub-food choices. Casual place to let the day go by. Closed on Mondays.

The famous community maintained Barton Springs Pool! Near enough to walk in 30 mins. If you're adventurous, you can take the trail along the river when it's dry enough to cross over.
