Granbury meets all of the stated criteria. As an aside, Linda's restaurant, just off the square, has the best chicken fried steak I've ever eaten.

If you are riding up, you'll find lots of nice roads around there.  Don't miss 51 (Paluxy Highway) south from Granbury to 67.  At that point, you're close enough to Hico and the Koffee Kup you can work in a slice of pie.

If you are driving up, keep Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in mind.  It's great.  http://www.fossilrim.org/

Doesn't get much better than Granbury in these neck of the woods
