Keep Austin Weird

The Official TGFA Summer Bucket List

by - June 20, 2019

As we embark on this crazy blog adventure, we thought it best to start with a roadmap for ourselves: Our Official Summer in Austin Bucket List!

Food + Drink
  1. Wonder Bar
  2. Discover if Deep Eddy Vodka Tasting Room is worth the drive to Dripping Springs. The tasting room is open Thursday-Saturday 11am-5pm and Sundays 12pm-5pm with no reservation. 
  3. Brewery tour and beer tasting at Infamous Brewing Company
  4. Lenoir Wine Garden has been all over our Instagram feeds, so we know it's pretty. Now to find out if the happy hour deals are as delicious as the food is rumored to be. Outdoor Happy Hour Tuesday thru Sunday runs 5-6:30pm.
  5. Spend a happy hour (or two. or three) at Ciclo. We're already drooling over the happy hour menu and the stunning patio.
  6. Moontower saloon
  7. Bar Peached on West 6th.
  8. Stand in line for Franklin's BBQ
  9. Squeeze into the Tiniest Bar in Texas
  10. Eat at Hut's Hamburgers before it closes forever
  11. Cosmic Coffee and Beer Garden
Entertainment
  1. Catch a comedy skit at Esther's Follies
  2. Enjoy the view and the sunshine from Azul Rooftop Pool Bar + Lounge
  3. Watch a movie under the stars at Blue Starlite Drive-in or Sekrit Theatre.
  4. Congress bridge bats
Healthy(ish) Activities
  1. Trapeze Class. There are few options around town, so we'll share which one we pick!
  2. SUP Yoga at Town Lake (AKA Lady Bird Lake for those of you from out of town)
  3. Watch the sunset and stumble through a salsa lesson at The Oasis at Lake Travis on Sunday night. We might consider ourselves regulars, but if it doesn't make it on the list, it won't happen.
Arts & Smarts
  1. Attend a Star Party on the UT Campus
  2. See tropical fish galore at the Austin Aqua-Dome
  3. Tour the Elisabet Ney Museum
  4. Visit the Cathedral of Junk
