Food Scene
Hank's Austin
5811 Berkman DrIt is close, cute, and has a ton of shaded outdoor seating.
they have some of the best selection of breakfast and fish tacos and their queso is top notch! I recommend you pre-order through their website so you can skip the line when you get there! (go up t to the online orders line) You can still eat in the restaurant and save yourself 10-15 minutes.

their menu has a lot of diversity and it is always affordable (though happy hour is even cheaper!). Their sushi rolls are some of my favorites in Austin and there is plenty of parking, and drink service while you wait for seat.

Entertainment & Activities
Alamo is more than your typical movie theater-- they have a lot of special programming, a great food menu and a bar inside the venue that runs special events such as trivia and karaoke. Pro tip: park in the garage behind it and get your parking ticket validated at the theater for free. Then check out the rest of the Mueller spots around it before/after!
