Food + Drink
While Austin is known for its outstanding food and drink locations, you won’t have to leave The Line Hotel to experience it! Make sure to head up the pink elevator and visit P6. This might be the BEST view in town of the famous Congress Street Bridge bats! Watch their evening flight while enjoying a gourmet food menu and incredible cocktails.
When the morning rolls around, grab your morning caffeine and take-away food from Alfred’s, located in the lobby. Before you walk down the Congress Street bridge to see what SoCo has to offer, grab a taco from Vera Cruz All Natural. You can find them in the lobby or on the outside of the hotel (The take-away window is painted to look like one of the ATX’s many food trucks!).
After exploring all day, you’ll want to make sure you stop by Arlo Grey for dinner. This family-style restaurant offers seasonal menu rotations inspired by French and Italian cuisine. You’ll get to enjoy a menu created by famous Top Chef winner and now host, Kristin Kish.
Enjoy exploring what Austin has to offer or stay cozy in your own hotel room, either way The Line will make your stay a great experience.
