Tuscaloosa Travel Guide

It’s finally the weekend whoop whoop!!

Recently I have had a ton of people ask me to make a travel guide for Tuscaloosa! After living here for a couple years now I have the inside scoop on all the places to go and things to do.

Airport:

This is by far the biggest inconvenience but hey gotta do what you gotta do. The airport is in Birmingham which is about 45 minutes away. The nice thing is that uber will pick you up at the airport or there are companies that will come grab you for like $40. The airport is super small so security is never a huge issue like it takes me an average of about 7 minutes to get through.

Quick eats Restaurants:

Taco mama- The Best Mexican spot in Tuscaloosa!

World of Beer- They have trivia night & giant pretzels

Blaze- Make your own pizza in less than 5 minutes

Buffalo Phil’s- The buffalo chicken dip is a must

Mugshots- By far the best burger in town

Nice sit down restaurants:

301 bistro- most instagramable restaurant

Chophouse- lots of seating for big group dinners

Deplamas- Intimate Italian restaurant, make a reservation so you don’t have to wait.

Five- Great atmosphere, great people, great food!

Brunch:

Rama Jama- A Tuscaloosa staple!

Heritage house- Cutest coffee house that makes the best baked oatmeal with strawberries

Turbo- The best avocado toast

Another broken egg- Beautiful view right on the side of the Tuscaloosa river

Shopping:

Fab’rik- my one stop shop for dresses, rompers and shirts!

South- The cutest graphic tees

Lavish- The best earring selection

Fun things to do:

Tailgate on the quad- Nothing beats Saturdays in T-Town

Midtown nails- The best nail salon in town

Breakout Tuscaloosa- Escape the room in 45 minutes

Downtown- Walk around and shop

Bama Belle Riverboat- Takes you around the river
