The must do is Beth Marie's for ice cream though. It's a thing. Because - Ice Cream. And old-fashioned ice cream shop. You'll thank yourself. If you are a romantic, get a 1 shake with 2 straws. The kids will love it. They have burgers too. It's for sure the can't miss.

The Cade & Blake with Pesto! YUM!! They deliver to the home, but it is an extra charge of maybe $3. It's worth it though!

Near the end of your stay, you might just want to go out in your sweats and the old t-shirt you slept in and feed your face. Denny's is around the corner. I am loyal to the $4 menu for a mini-slam or biscuits and gravy meal. If you ask for French Vanilla creamer, they’ll bring it.

Shopping
This is a classic Denton favorite. Browse endless rooms of old books and records, etc. People go here to get engagement portraits. Bring some cash. It's fun to spend here.

Getting Around
Uber is an easy and cheap way to get around. The fun places in Denton are pretty close together and near the Universities, so you won't get a huge bill.

This is train station. Drive from the house to this spot or Uber over. From here, you can ride the train down to the DART system which will take you all over Dallas if you like. Plan ahead though. And know when the trains shut down before you head out for the night.
