Hill Country - Dripping Springs, TX Area Guide
The Far West-Hays area of Dripping Springs, Texas, lies around 30 miles due west of downtown Austin's cultural hub. When you can't make it that far, relax close to your rental home or apartment in the sleepy town of Dripping Springs. The downtown area contains a few notable restaurants. Start your day off right with Mazama Coffee's breakfast tacos, a croissant, and a cup of home-roasted coffee before heading off to work. At the end of the day, stop off at Creek Road Cafe for upscale American cuisine. Locals love the Pedernales pork chops, a Southern favorite pan-seared with maple syrup and spicy Sambal chili garlic sauce. When you want to spend time outdoors away from downtown Dripping Springs, consider the historic Hamilton Pool Preserve on the northern edge of your neighborhood. You need a reservation to swim here from May to September, but the wait remains well worth it. Where else can you swim in crystal blue waters this far away from an ocean?
