    Cousin brought me over. Had no idea about the spot. I love this little cute almost like a speakeasy but it's really a community bar so nice service so fun. Bartender is so funny. Quick to have conversations. I loved it food We didn't see any food. It was closed, but not a problem we weren't that hungry, but the drinks were delicious.

    This place screams natural beauty where it had it all from water features to native plants. There…read morewas a waking trail and a playground. My only issue was it was hot and and a small amount of indoor seating. It is dog friendly and took mine but she was dying in the heat. so avoid bringing your pup in the middle of the day. Besides that I loved it and there were a few food options from great vendors, Veracruz and Dee Dee, and another is coming serving burgers. The centerpiece is a main cafe and large bar. I ordered a Pineapple Agua Fresca and it was delicious. Parking can be tight but if just picking up food then there are a few spots in front for pickup. I assumed there was a WiFi signal where everyone was in front of a laptop. Seems odd where I just sat and enjoyed the peaceful surroundings.

Once we got there, the grounds were absolutely beautiful and really made the experience feel special and relaxing. There are lovely waterfall/pond features. There was surprisingly a lot of choices to sit: picnic tables, tables for two etc. There are plenty was water stations and cups are provided. We enjoyed food from DeeDee's, which was delicious, and the horchata drink was especially good that we grabbed from inside the main building. I got the tofu stir fry. It was a decent amount of food and the right amount of spice. There was enough food to fill a hungry belly and just enough to leave some to have leftovers. The horchata drink filled us up so my friend and I both had leftovers! I'd like to come back early morning and enjoy a book and some coffee. I hope there's not a crowd midweek. I know the weekends can be crowded. ****So, I'm back. It's less than 24 hours later and here I am. ;) It's my goal each day to do at least 30 minutes of reading. I grabbed an espresso and a muffin. It was just over $10 for my treats FYI. I don't often come out for breakfast so I don't know if that's high or low. The inside space looked like a public office space. Each table had a person hooked up to their computer click-clacking away. It's a much different vibe than the trivia night last night. If you want an inside work space, I suggest you get there early. I grabbed an Adirondack chair near the water to enjoy my morning ritual. The space is filled with a diverse group of people: friends having coffee, families with young kids, and the business folks. I almost regret my muffin as I'm seeing many Veracruz tacos going by and they look delicious. I'm also seeing many folks coming in to grab tacos to go. Lucky me to live right down the road from this beautiful space. Perhaps next time I'll walk down with my book and get my 30 minutes of cardio done at the same time! ;)

    Meanwhile Brewing was not on my "to try" list when we were in Austin. I think when I swept through…read morethe Yelp listing's for breweries quite some years ago it may have not been around. But I did another sweep just before our Austin trip and became aware of it and then I got the opportunity to try a beer of theirs. The beer Steve and I had was an IPA by the name of Polaroid Ghost. This was a good IPA and it had a great unfolding bouquet with it's flavor profile. It kind of had a unique signature to it which we both really liked and wasn't like a usual IPA at all. Flavors to look for with this beer are dry, clean and a dankness to the flavor profile. There is a hoppy bite but it isn't extremely strong like some IPA'S. It's just a bit more subtle. This IPA is also smooth in body which makes it a nice drink. Polaroid Ghost is a good beer to sip on in the shade as summertime turns up the heat.

I was a big fan of their hard seltzers, which are 11% ABV. I got the berry orange and strawberry lemonade hard seltzers. These were really good and only $10 each for a sizeable glass. I was feeling it after one, and two was a lot for me. They only had the Texas Keeper cider and no rotating options, which it says on the menu. It was a dry cider and not really my taste, although it clearly says on the menu that it is dry. My friends who drink beer liked their beer. They have a lot of IPAs. My friend bought a really cute shirt from them with dogs on the back and a dog thinking about beer on the front. Their parking lot is small, so we had to find street parking two blocks away.

Warning to those visiting around dusk in summer: during my last visit we were eaten alive by mosquitos. Other than that, love Radio. This location has three food trucks including one of my favorites, Shortwave Diner. Their smashburger and Reuben sandwiches with homemade fries are delicious. Radio also offers an amazing happy hour from 4 pm to close every Monday through Thursday. The hibiscus mojito is the perfect summer treat. This location has a great trivia on Tuesday nights too. I recommend it!

I got one of their dark rum cocktails. They had some yummy food trucks in the back and several of us had items from Wow Poke which was really good. The weather was nice so we could sit outside in the back area in the shade while we ate. Then we wandered around and listened to the bands for a bit. It's a really nice space. I've been there once before for swing dancing one evening. I wish I lived closer to it but I'm sure I'll end up back here eventually for another event!
