East Austin is one of my favorite places to visit. On this guide you'll find places that I go to all the time. A lot of places I visit in east Austin are because I'm searching for plants or spots to eat. Honestly, I think it's one of the best parts of Austin because you'll find quirky, weird, and artisanal spots located here. There's a lot of hidden gems and a lot of new spots.
1. Springdale General
Springdale General is one of my favorite spots to visit. I stumbled across this spot a couple years ago whenever I was looking for Julie Myrtille Bakery. It seems like this is a popular spot to study, grab a cup of coffee, and also check out local artists. There's a couple of pottery shops stationery shops and also a couple of pop-up kitchens. My favorite spots inside Springdale General are Uroko and Julie Myrtille bakery.
There's also a bar and a couple of hair salons. This is a neat place to stop by if you're looking for some lunch or you're simply in the area browsing.
