๐งโโ๏ธ @cruxccpflugerville @cruxcc CHECK OUT THE NEW PFLUGERVILLE LOCATION! ๐คฉ
๐ 18817 N Heatherwilde Blvd Bldg 3, Pflugerville, TX
๐๏ธ Kids 5 & under are $5
Thereโs so much for kids to do here! An entire kids section that has bouldering, a slide, a warped wall, ropes climbing/belay, and more!
I also love how welcoming they are towards kids in the adult section. My kids wanted to try some more challenging stuff out in the big area and they were encouraged to try it! Thereโs a helpful code system that has cute little animal faces to show the difficulty level. For example, my kids mostly stuck to the โSlothโ belays (the easiest ones).
@simar_atx is such an ideal place to eat out for families in Austin! Hereโs why we love it:
๐งธ Indoor/outdoor play area. Is it indoors? Is it outdoors? Itโs both! ๐ Such a genius concept and Iโve never seen anything else like it. Perfect for patio season (right now!!!) but also hot weather or cold weather. Itโs covered and indoors but also right off the patio so itโs sort of outside too? Whatever you call it, I think itโs perfect!! Thereโs so much to play with and itโs a large play area so even if itโs crowded thereโs still plenty of room and lots to do! ๐ฎ Everything was delicious but my favorite hands down was the mini starter tacos ๐คค ๐ช They have a gorgeous patio thatโs covered so you can enjoy it almost year round. ๐คฉItโs a big place and would be a great spot for a large group/family gathering! ๐น They even have a piano in the front! ๐ Kids eat free on Sundays with the purchase of an adult meal! ๐ Use code: TIDE10 for 10% off your total bill!!
๐ฉฐ Opening weekend for @balletaustin The Nutcracker at @longcenter is Dec 6-8!
For one weekend only, guests will a free magical experience before the show! Professional holiday photos, Claraโs Dreamland and photos with Clara, a coloring station, magician, character parade, and more!
๐ Purchase tickets to see @balletaustin at the link in my bio!
These special events take place before the show on opening weekend only!
โ๏ธ Coffee, cocktails, mocktails, lite bites, kolaches from @batchatx , gluten free treats from @maaribuatx , @lickicecreams and 2 food trucks: @dippingspringstenderco and Santo Patio
๐ You can even order and pick up pizza from @bambinoatx (with a discount!)
๐They have a gorgeous tree covered patio with a space ship playground for kids! Such a fun spot to meet for a playdate! ๐ค
@machisushiatx has all you can eat sushi! This is the perfect spot for a special dinner for your teens who never seem to get full (spoiler alert: they will finally be full lol!)
๐ 2200 S I-35 Frontage Rd, Austin
๐ง My kids all like boba tea so we got that too (itโs not all you can drink fyi!) They also love Ramune Japanese soda where you pop the little ball inside and watch it fizz so we got those too!
๐ฃThe sushi was delicious! The Shaggy Dog was our favorite roll.
๐ฃMy youngest isnโt a big eater, so we were able to order a single roll for him a la carte and not pay the All You Can Eat price!
๐ฆThe fried ice cream at the end was a fun experience too.
Right now the beer passport is only $20 (lowest price ever!) and you get a beer at 16 places! Thatโs practically a dollar per beer!
๐ The link to purchase is in my bio! All proceeds will benefit @habitatwilcotx
How it works: 1๏ธโฃ Buy a beer passport at the link in my bio. You will get one beer at 16 local businesses. Right now itโs only $20 (but will eventually go up to $25). 2๏ธโฃ Bring your passport with you once it arrives in the mail. I recommend keeping it in your purse or your car so you donโt forget it. There is no way to use the passport electronically. If you forget to bring it with you, you are out of luck! 3๏ธโฃ The brewery will stamp your passport and you will select one free beer. Some spots let you choose whatever you want and others have a limited passport menu. 4๏ธโฃ Use your passport as early as Dec 1 and all the way through April 30, 2025!
Several of the spots on this passport are kid friendly! Hereโs the list of participating businesses:
๐บ @austinbeerworks (turfed play area) ๐บ @sprinklevalley_abw (playground) ๐บ @stwbrewing (playground) ๐บ @barkingarmadillo (turfed area and indoor arcade) ๐บ @theloosescrewtaylor (brewery inside @oldtaylorhigh with a huge outdoor space plus a candy/ice cream shop and arcade inside) ๐บ @3rdlevelbrew (board games available) ๐บ @redhornbrew (board games available, 2 locations) ๐บ @infamousbrewing (they used to have a playground, not sure if itโs back!) ๐บ @tejasmeatsupplygtx (one stop on the Georgetown Square) ๐บ @mesquitecreekoutfitters another spot on the Georgetown Square) ๐บ @goldenrulegtx (3rd spot on the Georgetown Square) ๐บ @powerbrewingproject (Hutto) ๐บ @phantomwarriorbrewingco (Killeen) ๐บ @nolancreekbrewery (Belton) ๐บ @sangabrivbrew (Liberty Hill)
