Survival Guide: New Office In Westlake Hills

There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction – Winston Churchill

We finally moved into our new, larger, and sunnier office here in Westlake Hills.

To help adjust you to your new environment we wanted to better acquaint you with the area and hope this helps to answer some questions you might have.

Where can I get great coffee?

Where is the closest gas station so you don’t end up wandering the preserve?

You feel like bringing in breakfast taco’s for the entire office (encouraged).

I had a rough day where can I get some fast food?

Your significant other needs you to do an errand, well in this case you can use the excuse you don’t know the area.

Where are the best Happy Hours with happy prices.

Or simply you would like a place to unwind and clear your thoughts.

If you feel there is more to add please send us your thoughts, tips or tricks.

Let’s get our eat on…

***Capital of Texas Highway has a North section and South section. It appears that we are at the cutoff point (Wild Basin Rd). If you see an address with N. Capital of Texas it will always be north of us and S. Capital of Texas would be south of us which is good to know when venturing out.

Please send any information you may know about the area, great places not listed, etc. and we will be sure to add to this guide.
