Sangam is quick, affordable and tasty! And best of all, it's a 2 min drive from the house. Great vegetarian options. I recommend the Paneer Tikka Masala and the Aloo Gobi. (940) 320-3003

Fun and vibrant burger joint with artwork featuring Texas artists. They have a wide variety of burgers, including nontraditional choices like chicken, turkey, salmon, and vegetarian. They are also good at gluten free options and even have a dedicated fryer for their fries. They can be very busy on a Friday or Saturday night, so I recommend a reservation.

Upscale gastropub with a Texas flare. Shrimp and grits are a popular choice, as are their cheese and charcuterie boards. It's a good idea to call for a reservation on a weekend.

Denton's only speakeasy. Come for upscale (and pricy) craft cocktails and a lovely lounge to sit and chat. Their bartenders are pros, and their drinks and ambiance are worth the price tag. They do have a happy hour for those on a budget.

A quiet place to hike and see wildlife. I've spotted armadillos, dozens of dragonflies in every color of the rainbow, eagles, hawks, walking sticks, and even a very shy bobcat. It's a 20 min drive.

Lovely way to spend a rainy afternoon. They have a world-renown collection, which is always free and open to the public, and a rotating visiting collection which has a fee to visit, but is often breathtaking. 45 min drive away and on the same street as the Forth Worth Botanic Garden, which can be a fun day to do together.
