Brentwood Dining, Shopping and Entertainment

This month, we’re spotlighting the Brentwood neighborhood of Austin, Texas.  This week, we’ll be taking a look at some of the dining, shopping and entertainment options in this North Central Austin Neighborhood.

Looking for a great cup of Joe in the neighborhood?  Thunderbird Coffee has been the go to spot for Brentwood residents for years to grab a cup of locally roasted Cuvee coffee and a pastry or sandwich.  Bonus:  they’ve got beer on tap and wine.

Phil’s Ice House is the place to go if you want to get delicious burgers for the whole family and brews for the parental set while the kiddos play happily on the playground.  Enjoy a conversation with your spouse and relax while the kids have the time of their lives.  After dinner, indulge in some Amy’s Ice Cream, conveniently located adjacent to Phil’s.

In the mood for something a little different?  Lucky J’s Chicken and Waffles has been pleasing lovers of the classic Southern combo of waffles and fried chicken since 2009.  Don’t worry, you can get them separately if that’s a little too wild for you.

Need to furnish your new digs?  Uptown Modern is home to a plethora of lovingly restored mid-century modern furniture.  The selection changes all the time, so make Uptown Modern a regular shopping destination to make sure you don’t miss out on an amazing vintage piece!

Looking for something fun to do with family or friends?  Dart Bowl is recently remodeled, but has been hosting people looking to make a strike for as long as anyone can remember.  Enjoy a White Russian from the bar, some enchiladas from the snack bar, and do your best Big Lebowski impression.

Finally, if it’s July and you’re feeling like Christmas is just too far away, visit Brentwood institution Lala’s, which is permanently decorated for Christmas.  This dive bar’s decorations will put you in the Christmas spirit instantly, and if they don’t, the cheap drinks certainly will.
