How to Spend 48 Hours in Dallas: A Perfect Weekend Itinerary

Dallas, Texas, is a vibrant blend of Southern charm, rich history, dynamic art, and tantalizing cuisine. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or returning to explore new sights, 48 hours is enough time to experience the best Dallas has to offer. Here’s a comprehensive weekend itinerary designed to showcase Dallas’s unique culture, food, and attractions!

Day 1: Exploring History, Art, and Authentic Texan Food

Morning

1. Breakfast at Houndstooth Coffee

Start your day with a cup of Dallas’s finest coffee. Houndstooth Coffee in Oak Lawn is known for its exceptional brews and laid-back atmosphere. Pair your coffee with a pastry or breakfast sandwich, and take in the morning calm before the day's adventures begin.

2. The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza

Head over to Dealey Plaza, where you can explore one of the most significant moments in U.S. history. The Sixth Floor Museum offers a comprehensive look at the life, legacy, and assassination of President John F. Kennedy, including exhibits on Dallas in the 1960s. Don’t miss the vantage point on the sixth floor where the events unfolded in 1963, along with multimedia displays detailing the investigations.

3. Dallas Arts District

A short drive or a pleasant walk from Dealey Plaza is the Dallas Arts District, the largest urban arts district in the United States. Stroll through the area and admire the contemporary architecture of the Winspear Opera House and Meyerson Symphony Center. Check out the Dallas Museum of Art (DMA), which houses over 24,000 works from around the world, and Klyde Warren Park, an elevated green space that bridges downtown Dallas and Uptown with food trucks, games, and free events.

Afternoon

4. Lunch at Pecan Lodge in Deep Ellum

No trip to Dallas is complete without some Texas BBQ, and Pecan Lodge is a local favorite. Located in Deep Ellum, Pecan Lodge is famous for its smoked brisket, sausage, and southern sides like mac and cheese, collard greens, and fried okra. Plan for a wait, especially during peak hours, but it’s worth every minute!

5. Explore Deep Ellum’s Street Art and Boutiques

After lunch, wander the streets of Deep Ellum, Dallas’s art district known for its colorful murals, live music venues, and indie boutiques. Discover vibrant street art covering building exteriors, and pop into local shops featuring unique, hand-crafted items. This neighborhood is a fantastic spot for photos, and it has a youthful, artsy energy that contrasts beautifully with Dallas's more polished downtown.

Evening

6. Dinner at The Rustic

Head back toward Uptown for dinner at The Rustic, a lively restaurant that serves Texan-inspired comfort food in an open-air setting. Enjoy dishes like tamales, queso, and fried chicken under string lights while local bands play live music. Their cocktail menu is extensive, featuring local brews, wine, and craft cocktails that pair perfectly with the upbeat vibe.

7. Nightcap at Midnight Rambler

If you’re up for more, Midnight Rambler, located in The Joule Hotel, is a swanky cocktail lounge offering innovative, craft cocktails. The ambiance is dark and moody, perfect for wrapping up your night with a unique drink and a cozy, lounge feel.

Day 2: Nature, Shopping, and a Touch of Texan Luxury

Morning

1. Breakfast at Bread Winners Café and Bakery

Start day two with a delicious breakfast at Bread Winners Café in Uptown. Known for its generous portions and cozy ambiance, Bread Winners offers a variety of breakfast favorites, from chicken and waffles to hearty omelets and baked goods.

2. Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden

Next, make your way to the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden. Spanning 66 acres along the shores of White Rock Lake, this is one of the most beautiful spots in Dallas, featuring seasonal floral displays, fountains, sculptures, and walking trails. The gardens are especially beautiful in spring and fall, and there’s a picturesque view of downtown Dallas from the Arboretum.

Afternoon

3. Lunch at Trinity Groves

For lunch, head to Trinity Groves, a restaurant hub located at the foot of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. This area is filled with unique dining concepts, so you can choose from various cuisines including Mediterranean, Mexican, and sushi. Consider Beto & Son for modern Mexican dishes like tableside guacamole and liquid nitrogen margaritas.

4. Bishop Arts District

After lunch, explore the Bishop Arts District, one of the most beloved areas in Dallas. This neighborhood is known for its eclectic mix of shops, galleries, and boutiques. You’ll find everything from artisan goods to unique home decor and handmade jewelry. Make sure to check out The Wild Detectives, a bookstore and coffee shop that frequently hosts live music and events, and Emporium Pies, where you can indulge in a slice of delicious, homemade pie.

Evening

5. Dinner at Monarch

End your weekend on a high note with dinner at Monarch, a fine-dining Italian-inspired restaurant located on the 49th floor of The National. This stunning restaurant offers spectacular views of the Dallas skyline and a luxurious dining experience. The wood-fired steaks and pastas are crowd favorites, and the ambiance is perfect for a special night out.

6. Views from the Reunion Tower

After dinner, wrap up your Dallas weekend by visiting Reunion Tower. Known as “The Ball,” this observation deck offers a 360-degree view of Dallas from 470 feet above the ground. The GeO-Deck provides panoramic sights of the city, and you can even enjoy a cocktail or dessert from the Cloud Nine Café as you soak in the Dallas skyline.

Additional Tips for Your Dallas Weekend:

Getting Around: Dallas has rideshare services like Uber and Lyft, which are convenient and widely available. If you plan on visiting multiple neighborhoods, consider renting a car to make the most of your time.

Best Time to Visit: Spring and fall are ideal times to visit Dallas, as temperatures are mild and comfortable. Avoid the peak summer months if possible, as Dallas can get very hot.

What to Wear: Dallas has a casual yet polished style. Pack comfortable shoes for walking, as well as a light jacket if you’re visiting in the fall.

In just 48 hours, you’ll get a taste of Dallas’s history, art, food, and culture. From its iconic landmarks to vibrant neighborhoods and local culinary gems, Dallas is a dynamic city that knows how to entertain and delight visitors. Enjoy your weekend getaway.

The Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau considers Pioneer Plaza "the most photographed attraction in the city."
