Shops, restaurants, bars, event venues, and more line the streets of downtown Denton. Enjoy gathering with friends and family on the courthouse lawn with coffee from Jupiter House, ice cream from Beth Maries, great burgers (with a view on the rooftop) from LSA Burger, or perhaps even a bottle of wine from The Chestnut Tree. Burl's personal favorite place on the Denton Square is Atomic Candy - a retro candy shop with a wonderful and unique selection of candies, sodas, and interesting gag-gifts.

Located 1 block off the beautiful downtown Denton square, East Side is one of Denton's most beloved watering holes, where locals and visitors can enjoy great drinks and even better conversation. Voted Best Bar in Denton 8 years running, East Side serves up some of the best craft beers, liquor, and cocktails in town.

East Side is easily one of Laney's family's favorite places to go in Denton. With great food from many different food truck options, to the awesome dog-friendly atmosphere, it is a great place to be! Located right off the Denton Square and sitting adjacent to it's sister bar - Miss Angeline's. https://www.missangelinesdenton.com/
