☕ Coffee Breaks + Sweet Spots
🌟Dallas Delights
My go-to hometown spots: Italian dinners, favorite brunches, taco joints, etc.
My go-to spot for Italian food. Truffle butter bread, succulent meatballs 🤤🤤. Everything is literally the best here!
North Italia
Garlic knots, thin crust, fresh ingredients: one of the best pizza places in Dallas
Greenville Avenue Pizza Company
Everything is good at Kenny's! From the buttery garlic knots to the carbonara. I love that they offer split double entrée option. You can try two entrées if you can't decide.
Kenny's Italian Kitchen
Lemon drops, truffle fries, dyamite shrimp, literally EVERYTHING is good here. One of my favorite restaurants by the Vandelay Hospitality Group.
Hudson House
My favroite restaurant as a kid! BEST SPINACH YOU WILL EVER HAVE! Ribs fall off the bone, caesar salad is top tier, and literally everything is a must try.
Houston's
Nobody does bagel sandwiches like Shug’s, with stacked creations perfect from breakfast through lunch. 🥯✨
Shug's Bagels
Truffles fries, dynamite shrimp and grilled redfish are my go-to. Great cocktails too!
Lovers Seafood & Market
Birria ramen is chef’s kiss! If I don’t get that, I’m going for the birria tacos with consommé and a jamica Agua Fresca.
Birrieria Aguinaga
☕ Coffee Breaks + Sweet Spots
Best cafes, study/work spots, unique drinks, and sweet treats to pair with your latte. Cozy corners + local flavor all in one.
My go-to local coffee shop! I’m normally a starbucks girlie but this coffeeshop gives a big competition. From the delicate cruffins to the roast coffee drinks, Merit Coffee is a MUST!
Merit Coffee Co.
If you need co-working space + delish coffee, GO HERE! Every seat is a good spot to work, study, or create content. They have a range of different coffee offering from to even Matcha! ‼️PRO TIP: get there early, seats fill up fast.
Buzz and Bustle Coffee & Bodega - The Village Dallas
One of my favorite co-working coffee spots: cozy and inviting with earthy, natural touches that make it feel like home. Customer service is always welcoming, and the coffee + seasonal specialties are top tier!
Fount Board & Table
Fresh pastries and custom coffee drinks that transport you straight to a Parisian café. 🥐☕
Paris Baguette
I’m not typically a pie person but this place has changed that. They have the best pecan pie. It’s more go to fall treat.
