TCU/ZOO AREA
You’re certain to find thousands of Horned Frogs in Fort Worth. Not the lizards, but the graduates and fans of Texas Christian University, who proudly display their school pride through purple signs, t-shirts and banners across the city. Established in 1910, TCU has become one of the most picturesque and prominent small universities in the nation. It’s located just five miles from downtown/Sundance Square and a half-mile from the Fort Worth Zoo. Explore the campus on foot, then spend some time in the neighborhood along Berry Street and University Drive to experience a part of Fort Worth with a flavor all its own.
- Visit the beautifully expanded Amon G. Carter Stadium, home of the popular Horned Frogs that competes in Big 12 College Football.
- Pick up a menu at Woodshed Smokehouse, Dutch’s Hamburgers, and Pizza Snob.
- Check out student hangouts like The Pub and Lola's Saloon, one of the city’s best live music venues.
- Shop along the University boutiques or visit University Park Village for fan favorites such as Anthropolgoie, Lululemon and the Apple store.
