The town of Granbury, Texas and the surrounding area offer numerous outdoor activities, live theater fine dining establishments, local wineries, and romantic excursions. For theater, come and enjoy a Texas-style Broadway play or musical or a nostalgia concert...experience a sizzling spring or summer festival on the Square...or just leisurely shop the many specialty shops on the historic downtown Square.
Granbury area restaurants offer American, Italian, Mexican, Japanese Steak, and exceptional Texas ranch-style cuisine. The Historic Town Square also has a wonderful sandwich and ice cream shop accented with rock and roll themes and a “merry heart tea room” that serves a wide range of salads, sandwiches, and unique lunch dishes.
