Funny Friday's ~ Only in Austin ~ El Arroyo ~ 8.16.2024

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

El Arroyo stands as an iconic Austin gem, renowned for crafting the finest hand-squeezed margaritas and serving up delectable Black Angus beef tacos, among a plethora of other Tex-Mex delights, since 1975!

Situated at the corner of West 5th and Campbell, this local favorite boasts a quirky marquee that captures attention. Daily, the billboard transforms with a fresh pun—spanning the spectrum of wit and humor—making it a delightful fixture at the heart of Austin's culinary scene.

El Arroyo invites you to contribute your own puns on their website, with full permission to showcase them on their marquee. It's a quintessential "Keep Austin Weird" tradition that resonates with the spirit of our vibrant city!

The laughter doesn't stop there—they share these puns on Instagram, drawing in admirers like our very own Myrl JeffcoatKathy Streib, and chef Endre Barath, Jr.! Notably, Debe Maxwell, CRS, is also in on the fun. In a world where a daily chuckle is a necessity, following El Arroyo's Instagram for the latest pun is a shared joy.

Wishing you endless smiles! Happy Friday!!

Actually, I think the second sign has a whole lot of truth to it.  And, it does seem there are a whole lot of ignorantly blissful folks around these days!  Even if they are smiling through grimaced teeth!

All fun posts. My husband loves sourdough bread so that one speaks to me.  But also the ignorant blissful people - and we sure see a lot of them!

I remember those sour dough starter days.......and I miss making bread!  Nobody ever asked who was the first person to start the whole fad!!  Maybe our Grandma's?

 

Something to be said for bliss!  Beats being all crazy, stressed and wacko!

 

Hmmmm something to think about.....next time I ask a kid that question I'll think of this sign Dorie!!  Fun!

Love all of these Dorie!  Larry used to have a sourdough starter but not sure what happened to it! I'd not seen any of these on Instagram.

I love all of these and like Anna "Banana" Kruchten, I don't think I ever asked who started it but, boy, I LOVED baking that bread! Would love to have some starter and make the occasional loaf! 

Happy Friday!

I like the middle one since there certainly is a lot of ignorance in the world today, haha.

Hello Dorie - this week, each El Arroyo marquee offers a laugh-out-loud moment but it's a toss-up for me which is better between two and three.

Haha, I love all three of those! The first sourdough maker must have said, hmmm, what are those bubbles? And then somehow figured out what to do with it. Genius!

Good morning, Dorie... loved the second one, as there is so much truth to that one. And the third one had me laughing out loud.

Hi Dorie:

I missed this yesterday but enjoyed it nonetheless today. I think the 2nd one is my favorite.

Enjoy your weekend!
