What People Are Saying About The Drag

In Short – Vintage fanatics can get their threads at Blue Velvet, and kids of all ages enjoy Toy Joy. Sharp dressers with fat wallets head to By George and The Cadeau gift store. Free spirits buy beads and accessories at Nomadic Notions or handmade clothing from 23rd St. Artists Market. Sports fiends hang out at Cain & Abel's on UT game days and students grab snacks at Austin's Pizza or Mojo's Daily Grind before catching a flick at Dobie Theater.

Shop the Drag
by mrmoneybags16 at Citysearch
Walking along Guadalupe reminds me of shopping in large, cosmopolitan cities like L.A., Chicago, or New York. Of course the most of the stores and restaurants are Austin-based and not as hip as those other cities, but in Texas, the Drag cannot be beat. I have always loved Austin because it actually has outdoor, on-the-street shopping which is very rare in Texas.
- Pros: bustling, variety, flavor
- Cons: expensive
