Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Pflugerville

"Contigo has been a Mueller-area mainstay for families since it opened in 2011, and the 2018 renovations made it more parent-friendly than ever. Folks can gather in the enclosed dining area for a more temperate experience during the scorching summer, or enjoy the beer garden's block-party feel with their dogs and younglings. Updates also include a fenced play yard off the deck bar, while kids (and adults) can play cornhole and washers."

"The inspiration for this place was a ranch by the same name in South Texas. The owners loved the original ranch so much that they decided to bring it with them to Austin and open this restaurant on the fringes of the now booming Mueller development. The open concept restaurant is almost entirely outdoors, with just the kitchen, bar and a few tables actually under a roof."

"You can sit outside in Austin almost any month of the year - with a short break in the summer for 110 degree days and that one week in January when it drops below 40. So it makes sense that there’s no shortage of great patios, but there are few better spots to eat and drink outside than Perla’s. You’ll sit under a large tree while servers bring you oysters and make you feel like you’re vacationing in a small beach town - despite being able to hear the traffic of South Congress and see a guy testing out his “Cowboy Mime” act for tips."

"If you have a thing for oysters and seafood, then check out Perla’s during your trip to Austin. The establishment boasts a modern yet relaxed style and is renowned for its high levels of service. It has both indoor and outdoor seating and ideally suited for lunches with friends and family or date nights with that special someone."

"The Bouldin Creek seafood restaurant contains one of Austin’s original high-end patio dining experiences, and still one of the best. Oysters, champagne cocktails, and fresh seafood a la plancha are worth the wait."

"East AustinOne of the things that makes Justine’s so appealing is its dimensionality. Yes, it’s French cuisine… but it’s also not just French cuisine. It's a place where old soul songs are played on vinyl, where they put up a yearly "Winter Tent" and throw a party for in its honor, and where you can sip espresso martinis on a light-strung patio at 1am."

"Flickering candlelight, red walls, and music provided by a record player playing anything from its wide collection will help set the mood. Make sure to finish the evening by sharing the impeccable crème brulee."

"If you want to take your date somewhere extra cool that feels like a cozy party, Justine’s is the place!. The menu is full of decadent..."

"Lenoir has won lots of critic’s choice awards for being one of the most romantic restaurants in Austin, and it’s easy to see why. Their creative Mediterranean menu sets the tone for a wonderfully passionate evening in this romantic, vintage-chic outpost. Their indoor dining room is perfectly lit to create an intimate atmosphere, while their garden area is the perfect place to cosy up to your loved one and enjoy one of the most romantic meals you’ll ever have."

"There are several options when it comes to gelato in Austin but the best is unquestionably from Gelateria Gemelli. Owner Andrew Sabola has brought the art of authentic Italian gelato to Austin and you can taste the difference immediately upon sampling some of his incredible gelato. All of the flavors are so delicious but my absolute favorites are the dark chocolate and olive oil."

"This one is on the east side and I love their design and color scheme. They have all the classic gelato flavors, and my go-to combo is usually salted caramel and dark chocolate. Address: 1009 East 6th Street, Austin, TX 78702"

"The East Sixth shop focuses on small batches of gelato, ranging from savory like olive oil, to sweet with Valrhona chocolate. There are Italian cocktails and Amaro, too. Takeout orders can be placed over the phone."

"Situated squarely downtown in the absolute center of Austin life, Osteria Pronto aims to transport its customers out of Texas and across the ocean to Italy through the creations of executive chef Gilberto Ramirez. This upscale restaurant has décor that reflects a contemporary style while still being warm. Guests can take a peek at the cooking process in the semi-open kitchen or take a glance at the wall-to-wall wine fridges that line the private dining room."

"Classic is new again, with house-made pasta, fresh seafood, slow-cooked meats and wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas in a modern setting at our Italian restaurant. Open for lunch and dinnerDress code: CasualPhone: +1 512-608-4490. DetailsMake a Reservation"

"Osteria Pronto in the Second Street District does Italian food simply. The overriding style of cooking on display here is rustic, but that doesn't mean the dining experience lacks ..."

"Currently being one of America’s best brunch restaurants, Chez Zee American Bistro is appreciated for its high-quality cuisine but is particularly famous for its divine desserts and weekend brunch. Here, they serve a large variety of American fare combined with southern regional influences, mostly prepared with locally produced ingredients. As for the unique desserts, they are prepared daily on site using the freshest ingredients, and just to have an idea, you can order a lemon rosemary cake or a butterscotch pudding, among others."

"Dessert is the main attraction at the West Austin bistro, which also serves up a full menu of American favorites. Skip ahead to the eye-popping sweets, including Chez Zee’s spin on classics such as Italian cream and carrot, or go for an original creation, like the cocos leches — a creamy, indulgent combination of coconut cake and tres leches."

"Hailed as one of the best brunch restaurants in America, the whimsical walls of Chez Zee have been welcoming hungry Austinites since 1989. Full of fun and warmth, fairy lights and ..."

"Imagine a bar set between two buildings, with live music and a fun crowd. This is exactly what Nook Amphitheater is. This is a one-of-a-kind bar in Austin and it is placed right between two buildings, forming an outdoor bar space."

"Perched high atop a hill, Oasis Restaurant offers arguably the best panoramic view in Austin (Credit: Daniel Horande on Flickr CC). Rather than saving the best for last, I’m going against the grain and commencing this list with a spot that arguably possesses one of the most spectacular views in Texas (AND is my personal favorite): Oasis Restaurant. Every square inch of outdoor patio essentially serves as an observation deck, and the breathtaking views of Lake Travis easily span miles."

"This is one of those restaurants that’s so popular you see people sporting its swag (t-shirts, ball caps, etc.) all over Texas!. Plus, it’s got amazing lake front property with to-die-for views perfect for the ‘gram!. There is actually an annual competition for who can capture the most beautiful shot of this place at sunset!"

"You’ll drive through rolling hills of green and look up at the limestone mountains as you make your way to the Oasis on Lake Travis for the most stunning cliff-side views overlooking the lake. The food here is actually awful. People come here mostly for the views."

"I brunched at Spread and CO. and right at the counter, I spotted the Cheddar and Chocolate Chunk cookie which I’d heard good things about, so I got one (asked them to heat it up) and devoured it."

"A more traditional breakfast spot, Counter Cafe’s simple diner setup and classic menu make it great for a low-key breakfast situation. Somewhere between the steak and eggs, biscuits and gravy, and hot cakes, you’ll feel right at home here. If you’re dining solo, grab a spot at the counter and do like they did in the 40’s (or whenever it was that people actually ate a real breakfast before work)."

"This east Austin cafe serves delicious, locally sourced breakfast and lunch fare (and one of the best burgers in Austin.). WEBSITE | 1914 E 6th St"

"A crowd favorite for many, Joe's Special will have you wanting more. Two farm fresh scrambled eggs over breakfast potatoes with house sausage."

"In recent years, thanks, in large part, to the folks at Peached Tortilla, Austin has become the land of the baroque milkshake, piled high with an absurd abundance of toppings. But this summer, we’re going back to the basics, a classic chocolate malted from Nau’s Enfield Drug, where they’ve been jerkin' soda since 1951. Sit at the counter and pretend you’re an extra in Grease."

"2808 Guadalupe | StDirty Martin’s has been an Austin staple since 1926, offering classic burgers, fries, onion rings, and sliced fried pickles, along with some fashioned American chow served in their original space on Guadalupe, next to the University of Texas campus. (Photo by Dirty Martin’s Facebook)"

"Dirty’s, as locals call it, has been feeding UT students and fellow Austinites since 1926. The dirt floors have been cemented, and the prices have risen slightly over the years, but you can still get a single patty burger for under $5 at this local institution."

"The park is a long, narrow 76-acre greenbelt along both sides of Shoal Creek. The leash-free area is located in the Pease Park portion of the greenbelt, between 24th and 29th Street. Parts of the trail are made up of large, rough-hewn boulders that can be hazardous to dog paws and human ankles, but most of the trail is simply hard-packed dirt."

"This park located in the heart of Austin offers picturesque views of both the city and natural landscapes. Of course, there is also a mile of off-leash terrain between 24th and 29th streets. While this park offers only trails, it is a great alternative to the traditional fenced-in dog park."

"This hiking spot includes 81 acres filled with scenic trails and a dog park. You can’t go wrong with a stroll through Shoal Creek!. 🗓 Open 24 Hours 📍 2600 N Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX 78705"
