Pastel, neon, or fuchsia, too — is pink a favorite hue for you? Does a mix of red and white, give your senses pure delight? If you or your kids simply love pink, there are many places in Austin where you can surround yourself with many shades of this color. You can visit an all-pink restaurant or coffee shop, snap photos in front of many pink murals & walls, eat treats in a charming pink bakery, have night out sipping pink cocktails, and more.
Here’s a Guide to All Things Pink in Austin!
Taquero Mucho
11101 Burnet Rd Suite #A-170, Austin, TX 78758
508 West Ave, Austin, TX 78701
An oasis in pink + tacos. Taquero Mucho is a WOC owned space created by women for women. Find visual and tasty offerings dripping in divine feminine energy — but don’t be fooled they can serve up the heat with their tacos, enchiladas, tortas, and cocktails. Please note: While we believe this is a very fun spot, please know that it might be considered a little more PG-13 with menu items such as “anti-bitch juice”, but that of course that’s totally up to you whether you visit with kids or save it for grown-ups night out.

— P6
P6 is a pretty restaurant and bar in The Line hotel in downtown Austin that overlooks Lady Bird Lake. Pretty pink flags adorn the ceiling, giving it a very beautiful location to sit and watch the sunset or enjoy brunch. Note that this one is really geared more towards an occasion out with grown-ups. It’s much more of a lounge vibe than somewhere kids would really enjoy.
