local guide || explore wichita falls

Do you want to know our favorite part of having a store in Wichita Falls, Texas? We get to meet people from all over the world! Our community is blessed to be home to Sheppard Air Force Base, which brings in people from all over our country & others, not to mention all the people that travel through here to visit other areas of the state. It’s almost unavoidable. We love when our local customers come in to the store with visiting family and friends.

When we opened our doors over five years ago, we decided to make a conscious effort to support the small businesses of our community. Ryan and I have always been drawn to the local scene—the hole in the wall restaurant with amazing food and even friendlier service. I like to shop places that make me feel welcome and seen, and I love getting to know the owners, waiters, and team that make a business thrive.

This guide was created by request. We have heard you ask over and over for our favorite places in Wichita Falls. I’ve handed out so many sticky notes with the locations & phone numbers of my “go-to” spots illegibly scribbled down, and last weekend I even gave a complete stranger my cell phone number in case they had any more questions.

This is NOT a complete guide to Wichita Falls. This is a guide Ryan and I put together with the help of our team to let you in on the places we visit frequently and have grown to love.

If you are visiting Wichita Falls, Texas and stumble across this blog post, I encourage to try out our favorite places below! You can also visit the City of Wichita Falls official website, the Visitors Bureau website, and Choose Wichita Falls website for more info.
