Explore Bastrop County

Food trucks, great drinks, an enclosed playground, AND an ice cream shop?! 🎪🍦

Let us introduce you to Millie's on Main ETX in Elgin, TX. 🍔🍦✨ Opened in late 2023 by locals Cody and Stacy, this incredible spot beautifully transformed a historic 1920s Gulf Station and Hurst Garage into a vibrant community hub. They preserved a gorgeous piece of Elgin's downtown history while bringing their vision of a laid-back, inclusive environment to life.

The kids can explore the fully enclosed playground or grab a scoop from the ice cream shop, while parents can unwind on the back patio with a craft drink or cold brew. With food trucks on-site and live music lighting up the stage, it’s the perfect place to make weekend memories. 🎶☀️

Because we’re firm believers that carbs do not exist while on vacation, our first morning stop is at Casa Pan Bakery. 😋

This new bakery is perfect for anyone who takes their pastries seriously. Locally loved and freshly baked, they serve up some of the most mouthwatering treats in the county. It's the perfect way to fuel up before a day of exploring!

📍 705 C Pine Street | Bastrop, TX
⏰ Wednesday - Sunday, 8am - 7pm
