We hope you’ve packed your appetite. If you’ve ever felt that you needed a weekend foodie vacay but Austin’s Michelin Star scene may be too far or out of budget, try considering a different destination — the Texas Hill Country town of Boerne.

Things to do


Assemble Cocktail Workshop
Shake things up for date night with a cocktail-making experience.

Farmers Market at Herff Farm
Enjoy the great outdoors and explore an open-aired market featuring local vendors, makers, and fresh produce every Saturday.

Memorable eats


28 Songs Brewhouse and Kitchen
Come out for a beer, and stay for a Bavarian Pretzel + old fashioned burgers.

Hamby’s
If you’re looking for classic eats, then you’ve come to the right place. Nestled along the Hill Country Mile, dig into SMASH burgers, hand-dipped corndogs, shakes, and craft beers.
