Google will get you into the right area, but you'll have to go through a pizza joint's seating area and head towards the big painting to access the entrance. What a cool experience! Walking in, you're immediately transported to a dark, eerie and ominous yet welcoming room. A full bar on the left? Bookstore with seats on the right? Wow yes please! I went to visit the bar and was impressed by its selective, but adequate spread of options. I ordered a summer spritz and went to go look at the books available. I love how they section off into the different genres while adequately having a good seating area. If you're in the area to explore, this place is it for some good reads and studying. Nice dark but appropriately enhanced environment for some quiet time!

Next level or two has a few seats and tables and very top is most intimidate with only 1 low table, low loveseat, and two chairs. They have little nibbles you can have, like charcuterie. Service is professional and super sweet the 3 times we went, Parking is easy, free, open lot for the main restaurant.

Our server was very friendly and attentive. This is where things change. The bartender, asked me if i was born stupid because the door was held open for longer than he'd prefer. As our server was sitting us, we could overhear the bartender saying things about us to bar guests. Totally uncomfortable situation. We stayed for one round of drinks and left as we felt totally unwelcome due to this guys actions. Great place, but how do you run a business with rude staff like that. Also, two signature drinks, two glasses of wine shouldn't cost over $100.

It's super odd bars around them have entertainment and crowds but not here. Seems like the guests mainly come for pickle ball, yet the stage mainly goes unused.

Bright and sunny, wide open with lots of natural light, tasteful hanging planters, and minimalist decor, there's nowhere to hide. It's a place to see and be seen, but not nearly as pretentious as that sounds. They just care about the details and it shows, including the attentive service and well balanced drinks. Though I feel like I should crawl back into the dark, dank dive bars that I know best, it's a gorgeous breath of fresh air for those good hair days. Generous parking lot, easy off the highway, good evening hours. The only thing I'll knock it for is being so far south! Anyone in the neighborhood has better treasure this place, since I won't be able to get out there that often.

Fortune Teller is absolutely bomb. I've been here twice now, and I came both times with friends…read more The first time I came was in the afternoon, and I got their violet femme coffee ($5, it's basically a lavender london fog), which was really smooth and very lovely. The second time I came, I got the plum mezcalita and tried my friend's fig old fashioned (classic cocktails). I also got the purple cloud (ube latte) after my cocktail which was sweet and creamy. It was during happy hour and they have a small discount on select cocktails, but the HH menu is limited. That said, the second time I came was also the night they were hosting some kind of gypsy festival, so there were a bunch of booths selling different types of vintage clothing and handmade goods, as well as a fortune teller who was reading fortunes. They had some couches and plenty of tables to sit at -- it was a total vibe. It wasn't too hot either, and at the end of the night there was a fire show, which was pretty fun! The whole thing was free, and there is a small gravel parking lot where you can park, and I did get a spot there since I came right around 5p when thinks were starting. Even if you don't get a spot there, the nearby neighborhood streets have free parking space too and pretty easy to get to your car afterward. Overall, I do really like this bar -- I'm glad that it's in Austin so that there's always a breezy spot to come and hang out in the early evening!

While I don't mind a change, it was surprising to find that no Happy Hour drink specials were being offered in the meantime. The bartender was friendly and attentive, and I know the situation isn't in her control.

There's a thoughtfully curated mix of gifts, home decor and clothing, and I almost always find something I want. They also have a whole tincture wall, which is something you don't exactly see every day. I haven't done a tincture appointment myself, but the bar next door uses some of them in their mocktails. Great for peeps like me cause I don't drink alcohol. What I like most is that the whole space feels like somewhere you can actually hang out for a while instead of just shop and leave. There's plenty of seating next door, and I try to get over there for the free comedy night on Tuesdays, but they've got something going there every night of the week. Music, open mic, and I think I saw Bingo on the board last time I was there. It's a fun, slightly unusual little corner of Main Street and exactly the kind of place I wish Buda had more of.
