Nice ponds and the best place to see Peacocks.
Ponds and trails and peacocks, oh my! Also beautiful gardens. Great for a short relaxing stay or to take the kids.
A great choice for a photoshoot location. Minimal people, easy parking, and beautiful foliage as a backdrop. I can’t wait to shoot more portraits here!
Bring a blanket down to the pond. Great quiet time for a picnic, reading, or just hanging out. Don't forget to bring bread for the ducks!
Lovely outdoor mall with a sculpture garden and pond area perfect for picnics!
smallest fucking parking lot I've ever seen. I was like Austin god damn powers trying to leave my parking space
Blythe Jewell of the Kidding Around Austin blog says to stop by Central Market to stock up on the perfect picnic meal then spread out by their duck/turtle pond.
Order up at the cafe, it's the best fine food meal option in Austin, all served up casual cafe style. Them grab a seat by the playscape and enjoy the outdoors, followed by a lap round the pond.
The outside deck is a wonderful place for a friday wind down with friends, live music and dancing

All the activities for the children, the playground right outside and the pond
Great place for the kiddos & parents!! Lots of great activities, exhibits, & an awesome outdoor playground. 👍👍
Parking near the entrance is tough, but there is a free parking garage on the north side of the building
Great nursery with lots of old shady pecan trees. It used to be a putt putt golf coarse. There are two other really good nurseries farther down pond springs road
Much better tuer aofice nurery an pond springs re: cust service; variety
This is a good all-around nursery. Good prices. Good selection. Helpful staff. A good place to start when you want to learn about plants to grow in Austin.
Check out awesome park with huge playscape, duck pond, canoes, paddle boats, train for everyone, live music, kite festival, and Barton Springs pool!
Hike & bike trails, movies in the park, sand volleyball, soccer, kayak & canoe rentals and don't forget the disc golf course.
If you made it here during SXSW, Congratulations grasshopper! The zen of the most beautiful park in downtown Austin is not lost on you.
Small place tucked inside the village plaza, next to the pond. The bulgogi and kimchi pancake were excellent. Sushi was decent too.
Always go for the pork bulgogi & bibimbap
Try the Bul Go Gi
Home to the one and only..........Mad Classy!!! Every Sunday night for the last three years. Best dub step, on the best sound system, bringing in THE BEST artists from the other side of the pond.
Thursday night is a must for dub-step fans. The basement is spacious, cavernous, and perfect for getting down. Read more.
Mad Classy Sundays (AKA Church) Worship the bass.
Go on an off hour, and enjoy a fabulous bourbon selection, amazing cocktails, and tasty snacks. They mark gluten-free options well. It can get quite crowded here.
If everyone is ordering "The Communist," this place may be responsible for the next Red Scare. It's a tasty mix of gin, orange, lemon and cherry brandy. Read more.
Small but snazzy, offering a slew of creative craft cocktails and a rotating draft beer selection. Upscale bar food includes sliders al pastor, bourbon beanie weenies, and a Texas Kobe burger. Read more.
I always try a bakery's Vanilla/Vanilla, as I believe it to be indicative of how good they are overall. Best in Austin, quite possibly!
Fair trade, locally sourced, cupcakes and no preservatives! The perfect little bake shop. Read more.
The team at Sugar Mama's famously won cupcake wars, and they're Austin's go-to resource for the still-trendy cupcake. Their Manor Road location is coming soon. Read more.
Sit outside under grapevines on a pile of rocks and beer caps and drink mediocre beer for good prices. Very Austin. Very good. Free popcorn!
Say hello to Chester.
Great bottled beer selection, classy wait staff.
Great staff and the best prices in town! Friday night happy hour has $4 pitchers of Lone Star!
Amazing chill bar! Super cheap and yummy drinks! Found it on my Supper app: http://supper.mx/places/mugshots-austin/
These guys undercharge. It's crazy.
Fried Dahl! Cozy atmosphere! Kombucha.
The convenience store/liquor store/Indian restaurant combo is odd, but that's what makes it quintessentially Austin. The naan sandwiches are what earned it a place on our list. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
Do not whip it out at the Whip-In.
The prime filet here measures up to some of the finest I've had in LA at places like Wolfgang's CUT and it comes at an Austin-friendly price (with sides!). MUST TRY the Elk appetizers.
Beautiful views and great mojitis
Great food. Great view. Great music - when London Calling plays...
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
