Zinger’s: Game Time at Dinner
We heard about a great new place called Zinger’s. Since a Zinger was my favorite childhood snack (Chocolate Zingers from Hostess) I thought it would be a great idea to check things out.
Zingers has a lot of things going for it… especially for a family. We have adults, and we have kids, so there are a lot of varied interests. At first glance Zingers is somewhat of a sports bar, but don’t let that hold you back. Zingers has great food at great prices. The big ol’ bar features drinks of ever kind. Many flat screen TVs including one huge one to watch soccer, football, or whatever. The place is loaded with table-side games (you have to put $ money in, but they are fun and inexpensive). Our table was right by the Wii and Rock Band making dinner and play a total blast!
Outdoor and indoor seating (of course) plus Thursday night music on the lawn (at least, during the summer). Since it is located right on the main drag of the Galleria, the location is super convenient for going to a movie or shopping before or after dinner.
We look forward to going back…maybe even without the kiddos=)
El Arroyo (The Ditch)! 5th street… BOWLING ALLEY BURGER!
Although El Arroyo up and pulled out of Bee Cave, the 5th street location met us with excellent service and enough lunch to bring home a doggie bag.
Among the Tex-Mex fair, the Bowling Alley Burger is one of the very best in Austin!!!
We always enjoy super service, fresh food, and refreshing drinks. I especially love the friendly smiles while my husband is thankful for the Daily Happy Hour specials (ie Two for One burgers…)
Drop by El Arroyo (aka The Ditch) and let them know LakeTravis.org sent ya! Thanks=) Take 5th Street exit off Mopac. Travel one block and turn left on Campbell. You will see the sign on the corner.
Note* their website is under construction and leans toward ‘not so family friendly humor.’ Just as an FYI. Thank you.
