A little time outside and a meal you are looking forward to make an easy Austin day. Start around Zilker and Barton Springs, then choose the food that sounds good.
A barbecue stop on Barton Springs Road
Terry Black’s BBQ serves Central Texas barbecue at 1003 Barton Springs Road. It is a restaurant stop outside the park. Check current ordering details before building the day around a particular cut.
A whole-plant meal on Toomey
Casa de Luz Village serves whole-plant meals at its Toomey Road village. That gives the outing a different kind of lunch or dinner without sending you to another side of town.
Choose the actual park or trail
Zilker Park, the Butler Trail and Barton Creek Greenbelt are different places to spend time outside. Read the city’s current parks and trail notices before choosing an entrance or assuming a route is open.
Conditions and closures change after festivals and construction. The city’s current notice is more useful than a saved trail description. Compare the meal stops on the map.
