Funny Friday's ~ Only in Austin ~ El Arroyo ~ 04.17.2026

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Apex Realtors, LLC ~ 512.750.6899 410939

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.

The laughter doesn't stop there, they share these puns on Instagram, drawing in admirers like our very own Kathy Streib, and 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!!

Dorie Dillard Austin TX  Always enjoy these Friday posts. A little humor goes a long way, and El Arroyo never disappoints. Those signs have become a destination all on their own. Thank you for the smile this morning—perfect way to start the day.

Good morning, Dorie... best not to talk seasonal allergies to me... I've been under the weather for two weeks. Do love the first one... when people say they appreciate honestly, I'm never sure they really do!

Good morning Dorie. When someone tells me they appreciate my honesty I wonder if they thought ai was lying up to the time or they are paying me a compliment? The two drink minimum may help you think the comedian is hilarious. Fortunately I have no seasonal allergies but have many friends who do. The El Arroyo was spot on today.

These gave me a chuckle, and I am glad that I have never had to deal with seasonal allergies myself.

Dorie, the first one is spot on, and allergies are real right now.   Kleenex is my friend.

I chuckled when I read the first sign as my mind went to 'Trust me, I am not a crook'

Dorie is the phrase "I Appreciate Your Honesty" like another Southern phrase "Bless Your Heart"  🤪

I love these so much. And, the first one makes me giggle because I always find it strange for people to say, "I'm not going to lie". This implies that all of the other times, they do lie!

Hi Dorie:

I liked them all but #1 stands out as a real truth in so many situations.

Enjoy your weekend!
