Neighborhoods we love Thunderbird Coffee


Manor Road à Between I-35 and Airport Blvd


THE SECTION OF Manor Road that borders Cherrywood and East Austin used to be an industrial thoroughfare, stretching between I-35 and Airport Boulevard and populated by just a few businesses. In 1988, Eastside Cafe was one of the very first restaurants to open there. Now the bustling street is a bona fide restaurant row, one where School House Pub serves upscale bar food between two Mexican restaurants, Mi Madre’s and El Chilito, and where locals park it for the day at coffeeshops and community markets. The newly formed Manor Road Merchants Association has spearheaded initiatives to promote the street even more, but we don’t need much convincing. The charming neighborhood is one of our favorites in the city.
