Areas of Carrollton

On a visit to the city, I looked up the downtown area in Carrollton because that's where our hotel was. I was not disappointed to find this "small town" kind of downtown with antiques and specialty shops. It was a beautiful addition to our trip.

Original Town

While you're in Original Town, take in top sights like Blooms Candy & Soda Pop Shop and jump on the metro at Downtown Carrollton Station to see more of the city.

Southwest Carrollton
We goggled ethnic restaurants and chose this one. When we arrived we noticed it was 1/2 restaurant, 1/2 spa. We were not sure but at first but the experience was good and the good was delicious. Big servings.  We even leaned Russian.

Northwest Carrollton
This place was packed when we arrived and had amazing reviews so it seemed promising. I’m sad to say the coffee was bad, which they were nice enough to take off the bill. The hollandaise sauce was tasteless and apparently not even made fresh which we found out about after the fact. The kids did enjoy their pancakes!

North Central Carrollton

North Central Carrollton might not have many top sights, but Prestonwood Baptist Church and Arbor Hills Nature Preserve are two attractions nearby that you can check out.
