Fun Streets - Rainey St, Austin

One of the things I love to do when arriving in a city is to scope out what will be the most fun to do or see. Rainey Street in Austin, TX certainly fits the bill! The bungalow lined street amongst high rise condos and hotels retains it’s quaintness while still evolving in a booming Austin. Rainey is different from Austin’s “6th Street” bar scene. It is certainly known but not nearly like 6th. Imagine 6th being Bourbon St and Rainey it’s younger and not so “crazy” sibling. Don’t worry, there is plenty of fun to be had, though. Whether it’s a bar made out of shipping containers, a beer garden, or my favorite “Unbarlievable”, a circus themed bar, there is something for everyone. The food truck scene is robust as well; so don’t feel like you have to leave the area if you just want a quick bite. I’ve been up and down Rainey a few times and absolutely love it!
