AT&T Discovery District

The AT&T Discovery District is hands down the best place in Dallas! Located in the bustling financial district, it feels extremely safe and well-maintained. The area is impeccably clean, making it a pleasant spot to relax. I enjoyed sitting down with my coffee and a croissant, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere. Additionally, the AT&T building offers a fantastic free immersive experience that is definitely worth checking out. Overall, whether you're looking to unwind or explore, the AT&T Discovery District is a must-visit destination in Dallas! Also very beautiful at night.

It's . . . fine.Compared to other large city's public hubs, this is a commercialized money grab.BUT.for Dallas, it's ok.There are a few fun neon signs, a giant gold statue that makes for great instagram photos, as well as a Times Square type screen and a few other photo-worthy ops.There are multiple seating areas, with chairs, tables, and benches. There are several restaurants and retail outlets.This is not a destination. I wouldn't have made a side trip here . . . it just happens to be close to Dealey plaza, the Pegasus sign at the Omni, and the book depository. It's also only just over a mile from Deep Ellum, though that's a lot longer in reality than on paper when it's nearing 90 degrees.Worth a walk-through. But if you don't live here, it's nothing stellar or mind-blowing.

My colleague and I were walking through and I was pointing out the different restaurants and activities they offer. We were pleasantly greeted by the grounds security. The area was in the middle of a power wash when we were walking by a giant connect 4 game in the middle of the lawn.

Stumbled upon this area today on our downtown Dallas walk. Part off the walkway is closed off for pedestrians only on Jackson for a block or so. Could see this area getting busy on a warm sunny day. It was colder, windy and Thanksgiving today. Could use some shading and trees. The Christmas tree is nice. Big silver ball ornaments that are bigger than my hand.

Nice, safe, and pleasant spot to relax downtown outside. Art and furniture. Media wall. Upscale food court and bar. Live music sometimes. Not a place to seek out but rather to happen upon and enjoy for us.

This is area is super cute to visit. They had this cool vday display up. Lots of eating areas as well. So much security that I never felt unsafe in downtown

The only discovery made here was that AT&T Discovery District is definitely not worthy of these raving reviews because let's be real here what even is the appeal? No, really someone please explain it to me because I saw a few TikTok's recommending this place. Well anyway, for those of us apparently not in the "know" of this gem I hope you like AstroTurf and patio furniture because besides the terrified AT&T employees scurrying to their cars clutching their bags in fear of not just the swarms of precious outdoor angels but of us, the wandering tourists, that's all you're gonna get. You can choose to brave the city, should you be so bold. But all that awaits you is some "stuff" maybe some restaurants? A store? A weird half empty building attached to a lobby to a high rise apartment. Now to end this open faced compliment sandwich. They offer free parking with validation from the bar at the exchange which is a single story food hall thing that's got a decent variety of food options but that deserves a review of its own.

Since it was right across from our hotel, we had to check out the AT&T Discovery District. The area offers a few shops, restaurants, and of course plenty of AT&T work buildings. Plenty of places to lounge around as well. Would be perfect to bring your laptop and get some work done.

Amazing place to relax, enjoy, and chill! Sit outside or dine in one of the restaurants! Love that this place always has some sort of live entertainment! It's always been a vibe! Safe, clean, and upkeep is on point! Street parking, ensure to pay ...! Drinks and food can be taken from the restaurants to the lawn area! If coming for a concert, bring your lawn chairs or blankets to sit on! Enjoy!

Spacious and nice area when I came to visit in the spring 2024. There's seating in the vicinity to relax and people watch.
