Fort Worth is looked at as Dallas’s little sister, but it is full of its own adventures & personality.
Pssst: Check out all my Dallas recs here!
Fort Worth Tips:
As is true of most places in Texas, Fort Worth is quite spread out so be sure to either rent a car or plan ahead for your adventures
Some breweries in Fort Worth have funky hours/rules. If you’re trying to brewery hop I would definitely try to be here on a Saturday to ensure you can visit the best spots.
Adventures & Ales Top Fort Worth Recommendations:
Martin House Brewing: A great brewery with a huge list of brews. Check out the sours especially!
Snooze AM Eatery: This ever popular brunch spot is phenomenal. Pancake flights, huevos rancheros, and more!
Torchy’s! If you’ve read my Austin post you know how I feel about Torchy’s. The best queso ever. The best tacos ever. GO!
Magnolia Avenue: Wander around the numerous coffee shops, bars, and shops on this cute little street.
Fort Worth Tourist Spots Actually Worth Visiting:
The Stockyards: So touristy. So over the top. Check out the cattle drive daily at 11:30 and 4 and then roll out
Fort Worth Water Gardens: A cool spot with several water fountains, each a little different
Sundance Square: The main square of Fort Worth. Many shops and restaurants are centered around it. Grab a coffee and just soak it all in.
Other Fort Worth Things To Do:
Rahr & Sons Brewing: A brewery with limited hours, get here right when they open because it’s 3 beers and a pint glass for $10, but your time is limited!
Trinity Trails: Walking trails long the Trinity River. A great way to get outdoors and venture between neighborhoods!
HopFusion Ale Works: A popular brewery in Near Southside that usually has a food truck. Lots of beers to choose from so I would recommend a flight!
Cowtown Brewing: Solid beers and a huge meat menu
FabLab LTO: In the heart of Near Southside, this cute little collection has local goods and shops that give back to charity
Locust Cider: A good cidery with several different options!
Skip:
Wild Acre Brewing: Mediocre beers, obnoxious staff
Fort Brewery & Pizza: On Magnolia Ave, this spot has bad pizza and average beers
