A Happy Hour Hidden Gem in Dallas!…read more We took a day trip to Dallas to see the circus and decided to pop into a nearby bar for drinks and small bites. Parking was a challenge, but we opted for valet and, at only $10, it was totally worth it! We originally planned to check out Bar Eden for happy hour but accidentally walked into Paradiso, which is connected. Bar Eden is a little smaller and has more of an intimate, speakeasy vibe, while Paradiso has a gorgeous, lively atmosphere. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the happy hour specials were perfect for afternoon drinks--cocktails under $10! The margarita was delicious, and the other cocktails were just as pretty as they were tasty. One thing to know: it seems there's only one restroom, so the wait can be lengthy. BUT once you get inside, you'll understand why...because it's basically a girl's dream photo booth! Definitely plan a little extra time for the bathroom selfies. We didn't try the food this time, but the ambiance and music were on point. The outdoor seating is beautiful and elegant, although it was way too hot for daytime lounging during our visit. Overall, I'd absolutely come back--especially for happy hour! Great drinks, beautiful atmosphere, and plenty of photo-worthy moments.

I found an event 6/27 5-7pm DJ set "My Tribute to Adult Swim Bumps" by ThirdLion, featuring lofi hip hop including sounds from J Dilla, Madlab, Nujabes, MF DOOM, Flying Lotus, and more. Bonus was that there were happy hour specials 8pm, which is outside of their normal happy hour window! Since LadyLove is nestled in the Bishop Arts District, parking was expectedly abysmal. There was a small parking lot with valet available, although I'm not sure if it was complimentary or paid. We opted for free curbside parking at the periphery of the district, about a 5 minute walk away toward the residential area. We walked in, seated ourselves, browsed the menu, and ordered at the bar. We ordered 2 x $7 margaritas and 1 x $7 Ladylove feral fries - included in the happy hour specials! Loved the ambiance - the low lighting, the music. Loved the happy hour special. I would love to be back at some point to enjoy other listening sessions while sipping affordable drinks.

Decorations are absolutely beautiful in every single room. Hands down the most decorated bar I've ever been to. Only reason i took off a star is because when we went to the 2nd bigger bar closest to the entrance- The blonde bartender with long hair completely ignored us for probably 10 minutes while physically standing at the bar. She continued to help others around us but did not acknowledge us or even look at us once. Not sure what that was about. When we finally got helped the drinks were good, strong- pricey as expected. Id go back as long as i went early again and went where she wasnt tending.

The Wild Detectives had been on my Dallas bucket list for years, so I was quite excited to finally…read moremake my way to the Bishop Arts District and experience it for myself. First of all, the Bishop Arts District itself is incredibly charming. Block after block of unique shops ranging from bookstores and bakeries to candle shops, candy stores, coffee spots, and little boutiques. It's exactly the kind of neighborhood I loveeeee exploring while traveling and if I lived in Dallas, I'd probably frequent this area often. As for The Wild Detectives, the concept alone immediately appealed to me...bookstore meets cafe meets bar meets restaurant. That combination will pretty much always grab my attention. I love to read, I love to eat. The space has a pretty relaxed, community oriented vibe, and during my Saturday morning/early afternoon visit, there were plenty of people working, reading, chatting, and hanging out both inside and on the patio. My one slight disappointment was that the bookstore side itself was smaller than I expected and didn't have quite as extensive a selection as I had imagined. That said, I still managed to leave with a few great additions for my ever growing TBR pile. Overall, this was a worthwhile stop and one I may revisit the next time I'm in Dallas.

Seriously mouthwatering. Ambiance: Whether you're trying to get some work done, study, or just people-watch (my personal favorite lol), this spot delivers. Full bar, comfy booths, tables, indoor and outdoor seating, and a steady flow of background music that just sets the tone right. Service: Friendly, welcoming, and actually knows the menu--which we love. You can tell they care about the experience. Overall: 10/10, highly recommend. This is one of those places you'll keep coming back to without even thinking about it.
