My mom is…

Austin, TX 78705

Sweet Mary Mother of all that is pure and…

Casey's New Orleans Snowballs

808 E 51st Street
Austin, TX 78751

Jaye J. writes: SPEARMINT!!! I haven't had a spearmint snowball since living in New Orleans. Casey's, ever the authentic joint, has 'em. Don't be a hater. Try it, you'll love it.

Casey's is a true New Orleans snowball stand. It makes me so happy to hit it in the…

I like my coffee a little bitter and acidic. Eric doesn't. That's…

1012 W 6th St
Austin, TX 78703

Perfect place to relax, inside or out, in the cute Hyde Park…

Phil's…

Fran's Hamburgers
Neighborhood: 78704 (South Austin)

1822 S Congress Ave
Austin, TX 78704

Carrie C. writes: How can a burger from Dan's taste so good but the same exact burger from Fran's taste so mediocre?  How can onion rings from the Fran's on Cameron taste so good but the same exact onion rings from the Fran's on South Congress taste exactly average?…

Jim-Jim's Water-Ice

615 E 6th St Ste A
Austin, TX 78701

Nau Enfield Drug
Neighborhood: Clarksville

1115 W Lynn St
Austin, TX 78703

Bing C. writes: I'm reluctantly writing this review. This is the kind of place that you'd really rather not have too many people know about. It's a gem. A classic. It doesn't get any better....so stay away!

You will not find a better cheeseburger or chocolate shake…

Amy's Ice Creams
Neighborhood: University of Texas

3500 Guadalupe
Austin, TX 78705

Elissa S. writes: This is an insider scoop (heh, heh) from someone who works at Amy's. So listen up.

I worked at this location for a little under a year. I was hired here, I was trained here, and it is my "home base."

I have also subbed at different Amy's locations.…

Sno Beach
Neighborhood: University of Texas

34th and Guadalupe
Austin, TX 78705

lindsey r. writes: Living in Texas in the summertime makes me want to wear frozen underwear, sit in a kiddie pool in my living room, and watch early 1990s The Real World on repeat until October comes.

But then I remember Sno Beach, and life is okay again.

Every summer…

Ben and Jerry's
Neighborhood: Downtown

500 North Lamar Space 150
Austin, TX 78703

Jaye J. writes: Ben and Jerry's used to be my favorite type of ice cream in the world. Now, not so much. First, it's too sweet. I'm talking sickly sweet. And the texture is not my favorite. I much prefer the texture of Amy's, which is a little richer in my opinion.…

360 Primo Coffee Shop
Neighborhood: Great Hills

9828 Great Hills Trl
Austin, TX 78759

Michelle C. writes: I was in the Arboretum area today during my lunch break "running some errands" (that's a euphemism for shopping...although I bought my mother-in-law a present, so I think that elevates my shopping to "errand" status).  I needed to grab a quick lunch…

Amy's Ice Creams
Neighborhood: 78704 (South Austin)

3100 South Congress
Sweet 3A
Austin, TX 78704

Alexandra L. writes: (Not to be confused with the location on upper South Congress, this one offers easier parking.)

One day a long time ago, a boy and a girl in love got into a fight, and they didn't talk for a couple of days.  To make up, they went for ice cream at…

Gelato's

3300 Bee Caves Rd
Ste 210
Austin, TX 78746

In front of Fiesta, near 38 1/2th St
Austin, TX 78722

Kristen F. writes: A lesser known location of Sno-Beach is located right in front of Fiesta, next to the booth with the hanging Persian rugs.  It's all the same great flavors and everything, right near 38 1/2th St!  

Keep this Sno-Beach in mind now that the one on…

Amy's Ice Cream

3600 Presidential Blvd
Austin, TX 78719

Michelle B. writes: Just what I need when preparing to sit on my ass for the next 4-5 hours while hurtling through the sky.

600 N Lamar
Ste 1012-B
Austin, TX 78703

Jill W. writes: After dinner at Wink, my friends wanted some ice cream.  I was full, but I tagged along.  This was my first time in an Amy's.  I was expecting a concept like Baskin Robbins, but instead I saw more of a funky Marble Slab. You can get lots of toppings…

Amy's Ice Creams
Neighborhood: Rollingwood

2765 Bee Caves Road
Suite 209
Austin, TX 78746

Danny S. writes: Can't go wrong with Amy's. This one is cool. I was served my a young man who could only be described as unusual - not on drugs, but very out there... but very nice and very helpful. Mexican vanilla. Can't go wrong. Fun things for the kids, too. There…

Baskin Robbins

9911 Brodie Lane
Austin, TX 78748

Jaye J. writes: In a town full of Amy's afficianados, the 31 Flavors often get overlooked. I beg you to take a trip back to your youth and hit up Baskin Robbins for those good ol' flavors from your youth like Gold Medal Ribbon, Pralines and Cream or Jamoca Almond…

La Paletera

1100 Center Ridge Drive
Suite 360
Austin, TX 78753

Sarah M. writes: La Paletera's colorful but barely visible sign hangs quietly amid a horribly cluttered section of IH-35. Just as you approach Pflugerville, you'll find a strip-mall-lined stretch of garden-variety department, clothing and hardware stores (Home Depot,…

Texas Expresso
Neighborhood: University of Texas

2110 San Jacinto Blvd
Austin, TX 78799

Gelati e Cafe
Neighborhood: University of Texas

2002 B Guadalupe St.
Austin, TX 78705

Steven N. writes: New gelato joint on the south end of the Drag (next to the UPS Store).

Maui Wowi Hawaiian Coffees and Smoothies

11521 North FM 620
Inside HEB
Austin, TX 78750

Lance M. writes: The best smoothies in town and the coffee's not bad either.  Better espresso and lattes than I've found in any other fast serve shop.  

You'll get an "Aloha" when you walk in and quick service.  Prices are good for the quality.  

Try the Mango Orange…

Cold Stone Creamery

11301 Lakeline Blvd
Austin, TX 78717

Erin H. writes: I almost cried when I saw that they were closing down the Guadalupe location. This ice cream is soooo good. It's way up there with amy's in my opinion. Founders favorite is my vice at this place. I really hope someone franchises another one down…

Highway 290 General Store

1301 W Highway 290
Dripping Springs, TX 78620

John B. writes: This is where the Subway in Dripping is.  Also there is a Pizza place in here that serves a decent pizza (very inexpensive).  They have Krispy Kreme donuts. You can get cheap wine and your farm animal food here also.  Big jerky selection (???).…

Jamba Juice
Neighborhood: Downtown

600 Congress Avenue Suite G280
Austin, TX 78701

Marble Slab has delicious, sugary rich ice cream, a decent variety of flavors, fresh dipped cones (try the…

Shake's Frozen Custard

2031 Cypress Creek Rd
Cedar Park, TX 78630

Jen L. writes: Frozen custard. It's scary fattening. I do mean scary fattening - but oh, my, does it taste good.

Shake's is strictly a drive-thru, walk up window place, and you can't miss it - it's pink. It has various frozen custard treats, which I'll describe…

Piccomolo Ice Cream & Gelato

13429 N Hwy 183
Ste 110
Austin, TX 78750

Edwyn E. writes: Like in the 80's - Gelato seems to be back in style with more places to get this treat. I believe this franchise is run by UT grads - so its locally ran - no need to head downtown for my gelato fix or buy it at the grocery store - try the birthday…

Marble Slab Creamery

701 S Capital of Texas Hwy
Austin, TX 78746

Ed L. writes: I love the word slab. Just something about it that moves my stars around. A slab of butter on a slab of toast, slab of ribs, iron, wood or concrete. OK, that's pushing it but the slab of stone is of the moment. When I think of it, I think thick, and…

Kevin's Cookies and Deli

1501 S Mo Pac Expy
Austin, TX 78746

Edie H. writes: The place that makes the roastbeef sandwich I'd make for my sack lunch.  I'm not together enough to shop for roast beef, bread, tomatoes and pickles (or they go bad on me).  

Not great, not terrible.  This and TacoDeli are the only places to eat on…

Kneaded Pleasures Bakery Cafe
Neighborhood: Far West/Northwest Hills

3573 Far West Blvd
Austin, TX 78731

Don P. writes: Nothing gives me the "dumb chills" more than a sweater-wearing teacher with too many cats.  Nothing, that is, except the name "Kneaded Pleasures."

Clever, sure.  But I feel dirty just typing it.  And it gives me the dumb chills...  

"What's that", you…

Smoothie King No 148

6406 N I H 35
Austin, TX 78752

Thomas T. writes: Excellent product! I just started drinking smoothies about 2 months ago as a quick meal when I'm out and about. I have tried 4 or 5 different places but I much prefer the flavor of the smoothies at Smoothie King.
     I do recommend you get it to go.…
