Inside tables and barstools along with comfy couches make it like Taylor's living room. Or garage or even throwback teen bedroom given the classic concert posters. You'll also feel smarter drinking here. Why? Because the bar is inside a former classroom of a former school. The concept works. There's even walk-up window service! Something my school classroom never had but now I realize what we were missing. The Loose Screw is a uniquely enjoyable spot in the world and you should definitely give it a shot.

We're visiting Texas from California to see family, and this was our first experience dining out here. I honestly cannot say enough good things. After reading some negative reviews beforehand, I was a little unsure, but I truly don't understand them. Yes, the food took slightly longer than what I'm used to--but even that wait was not long at all, and it was 100% worth it for the absolutely fantastic food we were served. If anything, I imagine those complaints may have come from much busier times. Overall, this experience exceeded expectations. Between the incredible food and top-tier service, it made our first dining experience in Texas an amazing one. We will absolutely be back when we're visiting family again!

They bring in food trucks regularly. Ranging from German food to Texas bbq. The owners and bar tenders are very friendly and know their beer. There is an indoor bar area with a/c as well as a very spacious outdoor area with plenty of seating where they have bands and events regularly. The beer is all great quality and a solid variety. Little bit of something for everyone. My favorites are the peanut butter porter and the kolsch. Their K-9 is also a super easy drinker.

If I could give this restaurant zero stars, I would. This was hands down one of the worst dining…read moreexperiences I've ever had. We made a reservation well in advance for a party of 20. When we arrived, we were told that other guests were already sitting at our reserved tables. Instead of honoring our reservation, they squeezed our entire group into a much smaller area where everyone was cramped and uncomfortable. Our server was kind and did the best they could, but the kitchen and overall management were a disaster. Dinner took over 2 1/2 hours, and food came out one or two plates at a time over the entire evening--even though we all ordered at the same time. Some people had finished eating before others had even received their meals. I ordered the nachos, and they didn't arrive until 2 1/2 hours after we sat down. Waiting that long for nachos is simply unacceptable. We were repeatedly told the kitchen was backed up because they were busy and because items like the chips were "homemade." They absolutely were not--they tasted like standard bagged tortilla chips from the grocery store. To make matters worse, the food itself was mediocre and not worth the wait (the one standout was the fried okra). Between the mishandled reservation, the excessive wait times, and the disappointing food, the entire experience was incredibly frustrating. I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Very clean inside with cases of booze neatly stacked across the room. The perimeter walls lined with stocked shelves of all the major alcohol groups. I bought some bottles of different varieties I'd never seen before, nice gifts to take back home to PDX in a few days. The Owner was friendly & helpful, I can understand why a review mentions his off-putting demeanor. We chatted about the growth happening in & around Taylor, which he doesn't plan on being around for, as it's a new era moving into town & I'm sure some young hip Folks will "do it up" for the town. Bottom line~ Booze ~ Wine ~ not so much Beer ~ Ice ~ (The refrigeration went out during the pandemic & it's been impossible to get some specific part. Yes he's had someone out for repair, more than once.) Go get your bottles & support the small businesses in your town. No thrills or extras, interesting conversation & some random Cool booze worth trying may come home with you. Go down a couple blocks to grab beer & ice!

Visiting my family I needed a drink. Checked the nearby liquor stores and it was close so decided…read moreto try it. That was the best part...it was close. Pulled up and it was unclear if it was open as the building looks abandoned. There was a car in front so I chanced it and went inside. The selection was ok. Hardly any Scotch so I knew I would only visit for whisky. Went to the counter and asked for the Bullet and realized it was about $5 more than I normally pay. Anyway, it was close. So I chatted with who I presume was the owner and mentioned we may look to move into the area. He proceeded to tell me that was a bad idea as I would pay more for gas, wear and tear, and waste time commuting. Gas is far cheaper here than I'm used to. I have a good car warranty. I work remotely so if I did have to commute into Austin it is still 1/2 the amount of drive time I'm used to. That didn't sway him. It was just a bad idea to move here. I'm not sure if that is a marketing strategy to run away business and to discourage growth, but it seems to be here. I made my purchase and said thanks and have since honored the advice to not come back.
