Due to the rise in COVID-19 infections in Texas, this year’s 4th of July festivities will be without a big fireworks celebration downtown.  Even though we can’t celebrate Independence Day in public with all of our friends and fellow Austinites, many local restaurants are promoting social distancing with a few delicious family packs you may enjoy at home.

 

If you’re lucky enough to have a backyard or access to a pool, order one of these special 4th of July meals to add to your home festivities.
