Came for the Chicken Shit Bingo but stayed because of the fun atmosphere, friendly service, and old school country band led by Brandon Rosage. If you are a fun outgoing person, go here! Bet a few bucks on the bingo, have a few cold beers, and meet cool locals and out-of-towners. Owner is super cool. Bartenders are friendly and responsive. Young lady running the bingo is well organized and kept the games moving along. No cover (but the band will earn your tip, they are really good!) Food varies weekly (chili dogs when we were there). Go here if you are looking to have a great experience!

It is definitely a classic Austin location that I hope will be around forever! I don't drink beer but they had some great drink specials for those who do. One of my friends was able to get a non-alcoholic beer, the other had a beer, and I had a couple of topo chicos. I think you can also order food there, but we didn't order anything. They also have decent parking options if not in their lot, on the street so we didn't have to walk too far. And I appreciated that Jane was playing at an earlier time. Her band's songs were oldies but goodies and they got several people out on the dance floor! I hope to find myself at Carousel Lounge again soon!

Shouldn't be overlooked! Not sure anything has changed in 50 years! One man was bartender, cook, bubbles blower, popcorn maker, and friendly welcomer to all who entered or wanted to chat. Very spacious inside. Drink prices are of a bygone era- they only sell beer and wine for alcohol options. Sound equipment was good I'm told. A classic spot.

My husband and I went to Doc B's to meet up with a group of friends and to celebrate his birthday…read more My husband made a reservation in advance for our party. Upon arrival we talked with the hostess and she told us where to go to meet up with our friends at our table. After awhile a waiter came over and took our drink order. He was friendly and did a great job the entire time. We waited for our whole party to arrive and then we eventually placed our order. My husband and I decided to share some Nachos. For my main dish I ordered the West Coast Steak Sandwich and my husband ordered the Petite Filet Mignon. The nachos were good. I enjoyed the combination of ingredients. The West Coast Steak Sandwich was delicious. It was cooked perfectly. I got it with a side of crispy jalapeno potatoes. The potatoes were flavorful. I tried my husband's steak and it was really good. It was cooked the way my husband ordered it. He ordered his steak with a side of crispy jalapeno potatoes as well. As part of my husband's birthday celebration we ordered a slice of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cheesecake. The cheesecake was so good. It tasted exactly like Cinnamon Toast Crunch. It was the perfect finish to our meal. Overall Doc B's had a nice atmosphere, great service, and delicious food.

With the proximity to the domain it offers the perfect vibe for an afternoon good time. Recently they brought in a new restaurant Yellow Ranger. It's really good. It's a mix of Asian American I would say. They offer so many great things and the service is always amazing. The guy who is always there. (Blanking on his name) He is really cool. He will often walk around letting folks know of any specials being offered that day or week. This last visit they had dumplings (beef) that were amazing For a local spot you can't find a better place. If you havnt gone or are up in the air if you would like this place. I promise you will.

Peaches and Dreams ($10): Sweet and fruity with a lot of sugar. You could not taste the alcohol at all. Raspberry Mule ($10.31): Tasted like a THC drink which was not what we were going for. Mezcal Negroni ($11.34): Strong but did not taste good. Prairie Watermelon ($9.27): A sour beer that was actually not bad and the best of the four.

I put in a group form request online, which says they'll respond within 48 hours. I never heard from anyone. I called them and left a message. They still didn't respond. I called back a second time and the guy I talked to the first time and sent the request to group reservations (Chris I think) was very helpful and put the reservation in for me, that worked. then I got an email confirmation. They were prepared for us. we came midday during a slower time at the restaurant (mid week). I was worried they wouldn't be able to get the food out in a timely manner, but they did. We had one waitress, again I was worried if she could handle all 16 of us but she did a great job and stayed on top of everything , adjusted to our needs. She even took a group photo Food was good. Some folks had the salmon and really enjoyed the flavoring. The brisket tacos were well liked . everybody loved the french fries. I had the chicken sandwich. I wasn't impressed with the chicken breast. It was kind of a a thick grilled breast no flavor and a bit chewy, but the bread and the aïoli sauce were very good and made up for the chicken. I would rate it a 4 star if the reservation process went more smooth,

The Margaritas are strong and boozy , making it one of the strongest in North Austin in taste. They ran out of a beer we wanted so they suggested another local brew. It was so great that we went to the brewery a couple days later. Kudos to the great service! As for the food, it was a pretty big menu and everything was good. I thought my country fried steak was a little on the salty side, but everything, especially the potatoes, was nice and hot! My buddy got a good looking burger. Add the live music and the chill outdoor vibes, I am very much interested in coming back and maybe staying at the hotel.

He was attentive to our needs and prepared us for with all of the details needed. It was a pleasure to work with him. The band was perfect in so many ways, the female singers put their heart and soul into the lyrics and the sax, trumpets, trombones just topped off the group. The entire band is a great ensemble of professionals. You can't go wrong with Memphis Train.
