The O.G. Of Craft Beer in Dallas, our fav, we’re even members there!
Peticolas Brewing Company Taproom
They even have beer nights and concerts, not just for kids!
Dallas Zoo
One of my favorite places to visit, the flowers and seasonal decorations are always on point!
The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden
The O.G. Hamburger drive in spot in Dallas, you can even order a beer and have it in your car!
Keller's Drive-In MENU (update December 2025)
Rotating food trucks so check their calendar before going. Dog friendly patio. It's nice to enjoy their full bar while congregating with friends outdoors.
Truck Yard
Delicious pizza sold by the slice. You can sit at the counter and watch them prepare it. A few draft beers and some in bottles.
Greenville Avenue Pizza Company
Burb life
Great independent coffee shop, locally owned!
Armor Coffee Co - Allen
Our 2nd favorite brewery, but the closest to us. We’re there at least once a week!
Armor Brewing Co
Wine on tap, sign me up!
Sixty Vines
You can’t leave without the whiskey cake for dessert!
Whiskey Cake Kitchen & Bar
Great cocktails too…
Bonefish Grill
Probably seen on HGTV. They release a new beer every week. The food is amazing and they have more than just beer, they have a fully stocked bar.
Armor Coffee Co - Allen
Great Pub style eatery. Fully stocked bar and kitchen. Good beer selection but not much rotation.
The Fillmore Pub
Great rotating selection of beer. Lots of daily activity with many regulars. This location has a lot of beer on tap and it changes quite often.
The Brass Tap - Allen
Food Truck in the middle of an open field. The burgers are grass fed beef with lots of flavor. One of the best simple burgers in the area.
Kelly Family Farms
Don't sleep on the whiskey cake. Farm to table restaurant with an excellent drink selection.
Whiskey Cake Kitchen & Bar
Some excellent Mexican food. This restaurant has been around for a long time. Their margaritas are some of the best tasting in my opinon
