Your Road Trip Just Got Better

Denton may be the perfect place for a weekend getaway, but it’s also the perfect pit stop when you’re getting away to someplace else. You will be planning your next trip to Denton once we send you on your way with instagrammable moments, a full belly, and fun memories.

Fuel Up

If you’re on a long trip, at some point you will need coffee, delicious food, and gas. Coffee from the nearest rest stop isn’t your only option when you need a fill up on caffeine when have plenty of coffee shops to choose from to keep you going. If your quest is for food, browse our listings for everything from pizza and barbecue to tacos and Latin street food. If you’ve instead packed your own snacks, or you feel like dining outside, Denton is full of outdoor spaces to have a picnic, from public parks and trails to the courthouse lawn. If your dog is on the road with you, Denton is also the perfect pet-friendly place to have a snack and stretch your legs.

When you're on the road, the inside of a gas station is just as important as the gas itself. With that in mind, Denton has a few remarkable options. Voted the Best Beer Store in Denton for three years straight, Denton’s Midway Mart is close to downtown Denton and offers great beer and snacks as well as a glimpse into a business that has been serving Denton for well over two decades. We’d also be remiss not to mention a stop by Buc-ee’s. This gas station turned shopping mall provides all the things you’re looking for in a road trip gas station: clean restrooms, gas, and an endless supply of merchandise sporting a beaver wearing a hat.

Take a Walk

To maximize your out-of-car time, you might consider a walk through some of Denton's most photographable spots. With public art and murals at every turn, you’re sure to find that perfect selfie. Local art and culture doesn't end with murals in Denton. If you happen to be headed through town on a Saturday morning between 9 am and noon, the Denton Community Market is a great place to find a roadside snack or some local art. If you're craving a little air conditioning with your art, take a walk through any of Denton's art galleries before you hit the road again.
