CVS Pharmacy
9500 S I-35 Frontage RdI like to run town lake, then head to Jo's for a iced coffee get the Belgian Bomber, you won't be disappointed. They get their pastries from Quacks Bakery and they get their breakfast taco's from Taco Deli (two of Austin's popular places) so you get a little bit of everything there while being on the very hip and trendy spot of South Congress.
