My favorite place to sit and have coffee

I love the coffee and atmosphere here!
I’ve loved everything I’ve tried, and recommend staying awhile if they have an open seat.

Another great place to visit for coffee! There is a playground beside it also, so definitely family-friendly too.

My favorite food to have delivered!

We love to order the lamb gyro plate, Greek fries, dolmas, and a side order of hummus and baba ganoush.
So convenient to have delivered, they are so tasty, fast, and competitively priced!

Food scene

This is an experience! Expect to wait in line, be tempted with the smells of amazingly smoked meats, have no idea which ones to choose once you get up to the smoker, and go through a cafeteria-style line before you check out at the register. Grab a seat, enjoy the relaxed setting, and savor that smoked bbq.

If you want a delicious sit-down restaurant, check this one out! I recommend the brussel sprout appetizer (I was hesitant too, but the waiter highly recommended it and I’m so glad!).

You do not want to miss out on this super local and delicious Italian restaurant. We recommend staying to eat your meal, and hopefully their pianist will be in that night! The Cajun pasta is our favorite dish.

Sightseeing

Grapevine is a registered historic city. I’m still not sure what that entails, but a leisurely walk down Main Street will take you back in a beautiful way. The train station (also very useful for going to Ft. Worth, or even just a quick trip to and from DFW airport), historic relics, and informative exhibitions throughout (I’m thinking of a restored house that has audio and visual accounts of what that exact house may have looked like from the time period it was excavated from) makes the trip wonderful on so many levels. The street is also saturated with wineries, restaurants, and boutiques.

Things to do

People of all ages will like this place, especially anyone who is an aviation enthusiast. Watch huge and small airplanes takeoff and land at the international airport. There are picnic tables and lots of grass for the kids to run around on or a couple to spread a picnic blanket out on. We definitely recommend downloading the app FlightRadar and have fun tracking each airplane you see take-off or land. Be sure to look at the UPS site to see if one of there huge 747s are there!

Be sure to stop by during their seasonal Grapevine Artisan Christmas Market. Hours vary, so be sure to look that up ahead of time! I recommend getting crocheted animals from Sharon, soap from Danyah, a wood lathed spinner top from John, a beautiful Texas print from award-winning photographer Chris, and an amazing wood-carved piece of art from Jim!

Shopping

If you are up for a trip to Bishop Arts, you will find a trendy retail spot with so many places to shop and eat. But at the top of the list is undoubtedly Mosaic Makers Co. It is an incredible place that exclusively sells LOCAL goods made by Texas female-owned small businesses. It is the best gift-shop in the city, and they have a second location in the Dallas Galleria Mall.

If you need a Walmart, we recommend this one. There is a closer one, but this one is still close and worth the few extra minutes drive.
