Bishop Arts is the "it" spot
Considered the go-to spot for shopping, dining and entertainment, the trendy Bishop Arts District in southwest Dallas features cuisine options from around the world, artisan coffee shops and bakeries. The neighborhood beckons to those who like everything at their fingertips, although weekends can get busy as visitors come from all over Dallas to shop, eat and explore the area. “Bishop Arts is the place to be right now. It’s a foodie’s paradise,” says Josefina Contreras, a Realtor with Value Properties, who’s been selling homes in the area for 17 years. “There’s so much to do there, whether it’s browsing the boutiques or listening to live jazz or salsa music at one of the local bars. It’s got a chill vibe, but it’s fun. It’s zoned commercial and residential, so if you live there everything is within walking distance.”
Boulevardier is a local favorite for dining
Bishop Arts District provides a plentitude of dining choices from Texas-style barbecue to Vietnamese pho, as well as a profusion of French, Spanish, Mexican and Italian cuisine.
Residents are never far from a boutique, chocolatier or craft coffee shop, and daily essentials — such as picking up a prescription or groceries — are within easy reach at Fiesta Mart on Jefferson Boulevard. The community also hosts more than half a dozen medical centers and the public North Oak Cliff Branch Library.
A Texas-style taste of France can be found at Boulevardier, a bistro offering an extensive wine collection. For a morning coffee or afternoon treat, Espumoso Caffe whips up flan, smoothies and lattes. And Wild Detectives offers an award-winning bookstore and bar venue combo.
