Just down the street from Allens is the South Congress location of Magnolia Cafe, known for its “Sorry, We’re Open” neon sign and 24-hour diner service. The original location opened as Omelettry West on Lake Austin Boulevard in 1979, and this beloved café has been an Austin favorite ever since. Barack Obama’s 2014 visit cemented the diner’s status as a local icon forever when he met a UT student for coffee there.

Since 1957, the Continental Club has enjoyed a reputation for being the premiere music club in the region, so much so that there is now an outpost in Houston. Here, you will find a true mix of Americana and Texan traditions, making it a great spot to grab a drink and mingle with the local crowd, among the most diverse in the area, and where out-of-towners are welcomed with open arms.

Spider House is set on the University of Texas at Austin campus and is marked out by its antique, one-of-a-kind decor. Sit on the outdoor patio, which boasts art installations including garden statues, twinkle lights and swings, and enjoy a drink. The Spider House Ballroom also often features upcoming musicians in front of red-velvet curtains. Patrons can stay inside working until 2 am, but beware, this hot spot is rumored to be haunted. In addition, it’s almost scary how many locally crafted beers the Spider House has on tap, alongside baked goods from Quack’s Bakery and fruit cocktails from JuiceLand. Come out during the 5-8 pm happy hour, which features good drink specials.

Come show off your putting game at an Austin original. The giant Peter Pan and T-Rex at Peter Pan Mini-Golf have stood guard over the intersection of Barton Springs and South Lamar since 1948. The company is family-owned and perfectly captures the city’s laid-back, funky attitude. Several new fixtures have been added in the last few years, and the whole course was recently renovated with bright new colors. Oh, and did I mention it’s BYOB?
