We like to hang there. People watching is fun. That place and Camp Mabry are the two best places in Austin with the hill country a runner up.
Are we going just ignore this young lady?
Lol, my daughter tries to facebomb every damn pic I take.
And yes, I was trying to ignore her.
The WF in Richardson also has a little bar. Many WF's also have good bar food like nachos, burgers, etc. Years ago when I lived about half a mile walk from WF, they had a little bar with about 10 beers on tap, and you could buy any 6-pack in the aisle and drink it all there with free glasses. They also had great burgers, nachos, wings, fried cheese, bowl of chips, vittles, and buck-a-shuck oysters. The one I lived near even had meal specials, Burger/fries/1pint for $10. Ten dollars for that had to be at cost assuming I was going to spend $600 on groceries. Or fish and chips plus a pint for $10. Local breweries did tap takeovers with $4 pints and they'd give out swag like growlers, pint glasses, stickers, shirts, etc. Husbands would get dropped off for a couple pints to watch football, wives would shop, stop for a glass of wine, and then collect their spouses.
Needless to say I was somewhat a regular at that little bar being so close to my apartment and the bartenders took care of me. "heres a free pint, this beer isn't selling and we're trying to get rid of it".
HEB in Mckinney has beers on tap with their smokehouse restaurant in store too. Haven't been there yet, but its nowhere near setup as a bar or beer garden.

My very first time there was right after I had gotten married, and money was tight. After buying tickets at the gate I was pretty much spent for the day, and back the there was no ATM or credit cards on site. I vowed to never return as it was the most stupid crap I ever seen.
Then my buddy asked what I thought of it as he was thinking about getting in on it. I told him straight up if you can't make money there for what shit cost you had to be an idiot. Then he asked me if I would come to work for him. I said I was raised that working with friends & family never worked out, and at some point it would turn to shit. I explained to him that as a meat cutter our business was on the weekends & getting off would be near impossible. I told him I rather have a friend then more work in my life too. He said he would pay me big money, and I still declined. I said couldn't see working then driving home to come back again would work either. He said their was a room that we could stay in with A/C a toilet & shower and he would pay me crazy money.
Well he did offer crazy money in more then I made at my full time job. He bought my costumes and I went to work. Turned out it was damn near 40 hours in two days and the heat and humidity was brutal. Allergens were just as rough. I ended up working 22 years for him before I wore my body out. My last season was 2018 so I missed all the covid crap.
Love that place and stop by there every chance I get!!

That looks pretty decent.
After a recent trip to the ER over my back issues thinking it may have been kidney stones(which the scan showed 2) I ended up seeing a chiropractor. When he looked at year old x rays he said my back showed many years hard labor.
Out the only thing that would get me into going to Austin would be to collect lotto winnings.
