Rules & Regs

The best way to soak up the Texan heat is out by a rooftop pool—so be sure to drop your geo-location pin at Rules & Regs. Their Latin-inflected brunch menu includes Enmoladas with pulled chicken and a fried egg; Avocado Tostada with heirloom tomatoes, fried kale, and fried egg; and a deliciously sweet Churro French Toast topped with whipped cream and cinnamon apple. They also do a BYO Bloody—just tell your server how you’d like yours customized. Bloody brilliant, eh? Look out for special events such as drag bingo, hosted by the talented queens of Extragrams!

For all the breeze, music, and sunshine, head up to Rules & Regs on everyone’s fave hangout, Fairmont Austin. The restaurant and bar serve brunch, frozen refreshments, and colorful tropical cocktails. It also has non-alcoholic ‘hangover cures’ teeming with trusted recovery agents like Kombucha and coconut water. Best for when the heat is too much to bear downstairs, Rules & Regs keeps things chill thanks to a cluster of shady—and scenic—palm trees. Tip: don’t miss their drag brunches or bingo events, which are always a scream.
