Trilogy Pizza & Wine Bistro – San Antonio, Texas


10/27/2015        

There was okay handicap parking somewhat close. There was plenty of space to get around inside and the table worked well.

The Alamo – San Antonio, Texas

October 27, 2015


This was very old obviously, but there was a rough place to drive over to get there with the cobblestone and when we got to the actual Alamo it was okay going in and looking around I just couldn’t go out the door you are supposed to to leave because there were steps, so I just had to go back out the front. Around the outside there was a nice grassy areas and monument type places. The restroom was really quite terrible it was rather small and a lot of people were using it. I couldn’t even get in the stall so I pretty much just went in my urinal in the corner.

River Walk – San Antonio, Texas

October 27, 2015


Some of the River walk was very narrow and right next to the river which worried me quite a bit with my power wheelchair. The section with all the restaurants had a lot of people and kind of made me feel a little bit uncomfortable. There are elevators every so often to get from street level down to the Riverwalk level. The first one we used worked fine to get down to the Riverwalk, but the elevator we needed to get back up didn’t work. So we had to continue until we found another one.

Original Blanco Café – San Antonio, Texas (near the River walk)

10/27/2015        

In downtown San Antonio we parked in a lot somewhere in kind of the same area and walked a few blocks. When we got to this restaurant I really had to go to the bathroom. The main doors were narrow but I made it through when both were held open at the same time. The restroom by the front door was not wheelchair accessible. So they told us that there was another in the back, but before we got there another staff member said it was out of order. So we had to leave the restaurant and there was a bus station about I block away so we went there. The restroom said paying customers only but I didn’t care at that point and no one said anything. Back at the restaurant it was crowded and I needed people to move to get through we were seated in the back room which had quite a bit of space.

Kreuz Market – Lockhart, Texas

10/26/2015  

There was nice parking up front. It was not too busy when we were there at maybe two or 3 o’clock. There was easy access through the restaurant.  From the smoker room where you got your meat to the eating area there was a door in between. You also get your sides and drinks in the dining area. The bathroom was nice and worked all right. It was a bit smoky throughout the whole restaurant which made it a little bit harder to breathe.

Lockhart, Texas

October 26, 2015

There were more cutouts to get off the sidewalks than I expected, most worked but weren’t great. All the sidewalks and corners were all a little bit different.  My dad walked and I drove my wheelchair from Black’s barbecue to Smitty’s barbecue’s two of the famous places, there were some bad spots in the sidewalks.

Black's Barbecue – Lockhart, Texas

10/26/2015        

There was no wheelchair access to get inside, maybe the exit door but even that was questionable. My parents went in and brought the food out and we sat at one of the picnic tables on the side of the building. I couldn’t quite get under it and had to have help to eat and drink just about everything.
