SOUTHLAKE
Need to get away? The just-right
balance of Texas sophistication
and all-American charm
makes Southlake, TX the perfect weekend trip
or layover excursion. With shopping, fine dining,
arts and activities, a getaway in Southlake
makes for a wonderful break from the hustle
and bustle of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.
Shop
No trip to Southlake would be complete without
a shopping spree. Need to spice up your
look? Scour the racks for the latest in boutique
buys and designer trends at places like Nordstrom
Rack and Kendra Scott, or pick up gifts
for friends and family from Sur La Table, Pottery
Barn, and other world-renowned stores.
Window-shop the afternoon away at Southlake
Town Square, where new additions like Athleta
and Z Gallerie make updating your home and
wardrobe a breeze.
Dine
After a day about town, treat yourself to a
wholesome spread from one of Southlake’s local
eateries. Boasting more than 130 restaurants,
breezy patios, casual bars and upscale lounges,
Southlake caters to every taste. Sample globally
inspired dishes and specialty cocktails at Tru-
Fire. Pass plates heaping with traditional Italian
family fare on the outdoor patio at Brio Tuscan
Grille, or escape the warm Texas rays with a few
creamy scoops from Milwaukee Joe’s Gourmet
Ice Cream. After all, you only get three meals a
day—shouldn’t you enjoy them?
Celebrate

in autumn, there’s always something to celebrate

Southlake’s annual Oktoberfest celebration,
where costumed wiener dogs race to victory.
When the holiday season rolls around, there’s no
better place to celebrate than in Southlake, where a
horse-drawn carriage rides through town, and visits
with Santa and Mrs. Claus and an annual tree lighting
celebration set the stage for season’s greetings.
Indulge
Looking to unwind? Book an afternoon at one of
Southlake’s premiere pampering spots. Treat yourself
to a new look from Spa on the Square, or stop
into Corinthian Wellness Spa for a deep tissue
massage to remember. After your treatment, kick
up your feet at the Southlake Town Square Hilton.
