Perhaps Lake Travis folks stay active because there is so much yummy food to try! From typical fare (Tex-Mex) to the more unique (food trailer scene), there usually is something new or "coming soon" to try in this growing community. A healthy mindset means there are always various good-for-you options: organic, farm to table, and locally-grown, to name a few.
New grocery store options continue to offer the good stuff and local breweries are making their mark in everything from new establishments to tours and tap rooms. Specialty coffee shops and any number of local bakeries means your palette doesn't have to travel far for variety.
Check out our write-ups of Lake Travis area restaurants, breweries, and features of local dining and favorite happy hour spots. Between good eats and kid-friendly environments, as well as a good deal here and there, you're not likely to be short on inspiration.

With the move to the west end of the Hill Country Galleria near Whole Foods, the fine folks behind Chisos Grill saw the opportunity to change up the menu and setting of the southwestern flair restaurant.
“I felt like we needed to make a step up. The one thing I heard from guests is they wanted something to keep them from going to downtown on a regular basis. Between this and Cafe Blue, we give them a more trendy upscale environment without having to go to the Domain or South Congress,” said Chad Jones, Chisos Co-owner and Executive Chef.
Chad also said they were eyeing the old Zinger’s Grill location for a while. It wasn’t long after the announcement of Hill Country Galleria Improvements for 2016 that the offer was made to make room for H&M and move Chisos to a more centralized dining area.
