If you like craft beer, this is your spot. With 36 taps pouring brews from all across the Lone Star State (and a slight bias toward local North Texas breweries) there is a beer for every pallet.

While Mudhen isn't nearby (or at least not walking distance), it's our favorite restaurant in Dallas so of course it makes the list. Mudhen is located in the Dallas Farmer's Market and has IMO the best brunch in town and an awesome patio! Be sure to get the chocolate mousse if you go for dinner. (Gluten free menu available.)

Paleo inspired menu and SO good. There's nothing on the menu we haven't liked. Be sure to ask for the grilled avocado and malanga chips that are not on the menu. Yum. Also, this restaurant isn't in Lakewood, but it's not too far away. (Gluten free menu available.)

Parks & Nature

We love the Dallas Arboretum. It's the perfect spot to walk through acres of beautiful landscape (with or without kids), catch a live music concert at sunset (Cool Thursdays), or relax with a good book. They even have a Children's Garden with tons of kid-friendly attractions.

The recently revamped Dallas Farmer's Market is THE spot for great organic produce and local crafts, food, clothing, and drinks. Our favorite vendors are Feral Majesty and Bonton Farms. Also check out Stocks and Bondy for some tea infused bone broth in the shed. And don't miss a meal at Mudhen! It's our favorite restaurant in Dallas!
