Bishop Arts District
A historic Oak Cliff neighborhood packed with independent shops, cafés and creative restaurants, ideal for a relaxed stroll and meal.
Bishop Arts District lies on the south bank of the Trinity River, in the Oak Cliff neighborhood. Low brick buildings around the former 1920s streetcar terminus now house more than 60 independent boutiques, galleries, cafés, ice cream shops and creative restaurants. Options include Mexican and Texan food, and the atmosphere is relaxed. It is ideal for two to three hours of browsing and eating in the afternoon or evening. The district is about 5 km from downtown. Take the streetcar or a rideshare, as parking is tight on weekends.
