I love C-Boys! Walk into the place, and you might ask yourself if you have just stepped into 1967. Same owner as the famous Continental Club just down the street, but this place has a more intimate atmosphere, and is slightly off the beaten SO-CO path. It's dark, kind of loud, kind of weird, in the good way. Me likey.

Oh Antone's! I love this place. Service is not always top notch, but the venue is wonderful for live music. One night it might be a jazz band, the next it's an homage to Led Zeppelin! I'm never disappointed with Antone's.

Great place to catch live music without having to venture all the way downtown! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe one-2-one has live music every night. What it lacks in authentic Austin charm, it definitely makes up for in having wicked local bands performing there, and a wide variety of music genres!

Moontower is like literally an outdoor playground with booze! From volleyball courts to firepits and armadillo sculptures, they do it all! Service can be meh at times, and make triple sure to bring ID (they have turned down my ID-less 37 year old silverfox husband on several occasions). They also host a trivia game called Geeks Who Drinks every Tuesday night @8pm. I LOVE it!

I would say that this place is THE place if you have only one night to spend in Austin and are looking to have fun!! (sorry Dirty 6th!) Rainey street is a completely normal street during the day, that turns into a pedestrian road filled with houses-turned-bars at night! Tons of cocktail bars, food trucks, and live music everywhere!

Radio is both a coffee shop and a bar. Grab a stiff espresso there during the day while working away on your laptop, or a clod local beer at night while checking out open mic performers, or sitting outside with a group of friends. Service can be very average at times, but what it lacks in customer service it makes up by being one of the only cool joints around. They have a few food truck on site, including Veracruz which is one of the best vegetarian taco food truck in town.

Despite the name, Sprouts is actually a grocery store. If Whole Foods and HEB made sweet love and had a baby, it would be Sprouts. Sprouts is my go to for fresh ingredients, especially fruits and vegetables, and anything related to healthy living. They also have a bulk section, and a decent wine selection. Their prices are way better than Whole Foods, in fact, I haven't stepped foot in WF since moving to Austin (ironically)!

The domain is pretty fantastic! From small pubs and restaurants and local artist galleries, to large chain stores such as H&M and Apple, you will find everything there! It's sort of a village of shops and pubs! If you enjoy shopping, it's definitely worth spending the afternoon there, and catch a happy hour drink while you're there. Did I mention the cupcake ATM?
