Best pizza around!
Insider tip- make sure you call early to reserve your pizza dough. They only make a certain amount everyday. Once they are all reserved for that day, they are gone. Call early. Totally worth checking out. Outside seating only. Beer and wine served too.

If you love Italian food, check out Pasta Bella. It's our favorite Italian restaurant in Fredericksburg. But be aware, if you go at peak times (especially on weekends) there will be a wait but it's totally worth it. (They are also closed on Sundays)

Good food, great drinks and live music. What more could you want? Pet friendly? Yep! They even allow pets in the outside seating area. (and will bring them a fresh bowl of water)
Our favorites are the nacho construction kit with beef fajita meat. (It comes with other options like chicken and ground beef but their beef fajita meat is the bomb!)
Also, fried catfish, BBQ Pig ribs and smashed potatoes (Yumm!), chicken fried steak or chicken, homemade tamales, it's all great. They even have burgers and salads.
Drinks you ask? Try their famous jalapeño margarita. But beware- its strong. They also have a full bar and a variety of beers and wines to choose from. Checkout their website to see the live music schedule.

Just about a 40 minute drive from the Cabin to the small town of Centerpoint, is this awesome hidden gem. It’s like walking into a local Caribbean hangout. Great food and drinks and music that fits the place perfectly.
Heads up though, it is not air conditioned so dress accordingly in the hot summer months. It has become one of our favorite hangouts. If you love the Caribbean, this place is a must.
***Please call before you head over there to make sure they are open.

Shopping/Food/Music
With 7 barns and acres of shopping, Trade Days has it all.
If you can't find it here, you really don't need it. LOL
Seriously, for a $5.00 parking pass (good for the whole weekend) it's a cool place to roam. Lots of food, a Biergarten and live music. It runs the weekend of the 3rd Saturday every month.
