We wouldn't blame you if you said you'd never heard of Liberty Hill. Nestled on the edge of the beautiful Balcones Canyonland Preserve, this not-so-tiny-anymore town will surprise you with its slightly wacky, artistic charm, and its restaurants and breweries will certainly satisfy any cravings you might have for good food and good beer.
The market on the corner of Loop 332 and Hwy 1869 has been the town grocery store for 100 years. It’s been called Parker’s since 2001, complete with an old school butcher’s counter, a hot lunch counter, and some of the best fresh deli offerings for many miles around.
Hell or High Water Brewing drastically changed the face of Liberty Hill’s downtown area - for the better. They serve classic and unique craft brews and delicious food in a beautifully restored limestone-walled store front, complete with a child- and pet-friendly seating area.
Dahlia Cafe (called Dahlia’s by locals) is the last word in indoor-outdoor, down-home cooking. Dahlia’s has been open for fifteen years now, and we don’t foresee demand for their delicious food slowing down anytime soon.
Liberty Hill was one of the first small Texas towns to host an international art symposium in the 1970’s, welcoming artists from places like Germany, Italy, Japan, and more. They lived and worked in Liberty Hill and created their works of art using local materials, and then left them to the city as a gift.
Ever seen a giant longhorn skull made out of plastic toys and trash? If not, you haven’t experienced the creative and wonderfully weird displays of Terry Tunes Parks. Inspired by native Austinite psychedelic band The 13th Floor Elevators, Terry uses a myriad of leftovers to create massive works of art, some built to be purposefully weathered by the elements, and some carefully preserved for sale.
Visiting the rugged and picturesque Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge is a great way to unplug from the daily stresses of life in the great Texan outdoors. Make sure you wear sturdy hiking shoes and a hat, and bring plenty of water and a pair of binoculars!
