Consigned to History: The Last Days of the Austin Antique Mall
“Thank you for continuing to support small businesses. 25% off everything.”. It’s a balmy, blue-skyed early April day, and yet there’s a pall over the Austin Antique Mall. It’s an air of sadness that seems completely at odds with the squeals of excitement and disco music audible through the blue metal walls of the building it shares with Playland Skate Center. The staff in the front cubby chat with vendors and customers, looking over knickknacks and collectibles, cooing over a particularly appealing item before it’s wrapped, bagged, and handed over. In the seemingly endless passageways between booths, those customers have been hunting for some rarity or oddity.

Restaurant Review: LeRoy and Lewis Barbecue
After seven years of building a reputation in the vanguard of Texas barbecue from the confines of a food truck, primarily through an emphasis on sourcing from Texas ranchers and whole-animal butchery, LeRoy and Lewis opened its brick-and-mortar restaurant, located in the Garrison Park neighborhood, at the end of February. Featuring a greatly expanded menu from what’s available at the food truck located at Cosmic Coffee on Pickle Road, LeRoy and Lewis is ambitious and innovative, but lacks a clear through line to connect the various components of the menu.
The Best Bakeries In Austin
