Franklin's BBQ and La Barbecue are the two most popular spots in Austin for the best BBQ. The line is long at La BBQ as well but not nearly as bad as Franklin's. Also, local tip, you can pre-order La BBQ ahead of time but make sure it's a few days in advance Pork ribs and brisket are the best.

Hiking, swimming, etc. This is the main park in Austin that feels like a forest. The Flats and Twin Falls are the most popular watering holes to relax at. People do bring beers and koozies, but just know that it is illegal to drink there. http://bartoncreekhome.com/barton-creek-greenbelt-swimming-holes
