Awesome find. We go to canyon every other week to help with a kids home. Each time we hit up spaces on the way back to SA and never knew this place was literally around the corner from where we are at. Great people. Great vibes. Awesome place to chill. The ribeye nachos are effing good. Definitely will be back and you should go try it too when in the area. read more

If you want a fun Thursday evening, grab a group of friends and head to the Dam Red Barn in Canyon Lake for Music Bingo. For $2 per card per game, you can have a great time singing along with your friends- and you might win some money! They play three games each week, and each game has a cash prize. The pot for the final game this week was over $500 (pot amount dependent on number of cards sold). Each week has a different music theme. This week was Disco music - complete with a disco ball helmet winners got to wear for pictures. The bingo "caller" makes it fun. The drink specials are good (I love the watermelon lemonade) and they have a couple bar food favorites, including the chicken bites, fried pickles and garlic cheese curds. Travis and his crew are friendly and fun. Check it out! read more

Dam Red Barn - Eating area drinks and us - Bars Near Me - Canyon Lake, Texas

Holy Hell. I went here tonight and placed an order to go. It was OVER AN HOUR before I got my food. I watched order after order after order come out of the kitchen, but my order was still back there. I FINALLY got my order and I was so happy... Until I got home. I ordered the Chicken Fried Ribeye and it was so overcooked that it was inedible. The meat actually cracked apart when I put my fork in it. I was still optimistic that it was only that one piece that was cooked into oblivion, but sadly, I was wrong. I guess if you're going here for nachos or a drink then this is a good place to go. This was my very first time here and it will definitely be my last. read more

Came here because saw the special on FB 2 thick pieces of catfish and they weren't thick it's like they split the filet. The special is 12.50 but for some reason they charged me an extra .50 cents for 2 sauces I only needed tartar. The fish was very good though and they give you a lot of fries. The hush puppies were just ok. The service was not good I sat at the bar and the bar tender this night never once checked up on me had to get a server for a refill and my check. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All in all the place is fun, they have TVs to catch sports and different stuff going on during the week.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

What a FUN place. Drink specials even on weekends. Staff super friendly and efficient. This can be a super busy place when packed out. The band was just fun too. Very into the audience.

Drinks certainly not watered down. For a laid back fun time-this is it. read more

The staff are so beyond friendly! I can't wait to come back! Thank yall for the hospitality!! read more

First time here I went with several people. We got the chicken fried rib eye, two burgers, and the Philly cheesesteak and none of them were good at all. Too much salt. All meals were partially eaten and pushed to the side. 3 of our friends their food was never even put in to order we all got our food but them when we asked the waitress the paper we wrote our orders down got wet and they couldn't read it so they just threw it away. Wow! They didn't even bother to ask us nothing. There were only two bartenders and they were very busy for a Wednesday night. They were very much overwhelmed. Management needs to hire actual waitresses so the bartenders could actually bartend. They have a full food menu and you don't have any waitresses. You have to go up to the bar order and pick up your food while people are trying to order drinks at the bar. It's a terrible concept. The brunette bartender was rude as hell. The blonde she was amazing through out the chaos she kept smiling big and had a great attitude. The brunette look like she just needs to quit can't handle the heat get out the kitchen. Now the only thing that was good were the appetizers so maybe they should get rid of the full menu and just do appetizers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The music and atmosphere was good. Karaoke was good dj was good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Oh and my silverware was dirty as hell it still had food stuck to it. That ruined my meal from the get go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Dam Red Barn - Can't really see bar lighting is terrible but food still stuck to my knife and fork. - Bars Near Me - Canyon Lake, Texas

Hell to the yes! The food here is DELICIOUS, there's loads of it, and not even crazy expensive?! That's a triple threat combo! I knew we were going to be in the area last weekend so I looked into dining options ahead of time. One look at the menu at this place and I knew we had to go. I ordered the adult grilled cheese: three types of cheese on Texas toast with tomato, thin-sliced ham, AND bacon. Heaven! I would have never thought of a double-decker grilled cheese, so it was quite the surprise when they brought it out. Along with a heaping portion of utterly delicious fries. There was no way I was gonna get through it all without needing a to-go box, especially since I was saving myself for dessert to get the funnel cake fries. They were also generously heaped, plus a cup of molten dark chocolate. My partner helped me and we still couldn't finish them, so that came back home too, LOL. So yeah, I was really pleased with my meal. The place is very unassuming from the outside if you're just driving by. It looks like a run-down old red barn. And it probably was at one point, but the inside has been converted into a dining establishment. It's definitely not fancy on the inside either (though it leans into the whole "industrial" vibe that's so popular these days), but they have some fun colorful lighting and string lights too + a stage in the corner. Walk in and seat yourself at a table or up at the bar. They've got pool tables if you're into that. And they have live music and events (I saw an advertisement for a corn hole tourney) depending on what night you go. Looks to be a cool hangout for the local crowd. All the staff were friendly and the bathrooms were passably clean, haha. Parking is a gravel lot kind of shared with an RV park. read more

Dam Red Barn - Sampler Platter with Fried Green Tomatoes, Fried Jalapeños & Fried Bacon. Oh My!! - Bars Near Me - Canyon Lake, Texas

First time to visit Sunday evening. Nice sports bar/music venue/self proclaimed Party Barn. Located below the massive dam at Canyon Lake the staff is friendly and welcoming. Our waitress explained specials from the menu and answered all questions. We chose to split an order of the Chicken Fried Ribeye Stack which consists of garlic mashed potatoes, battered ribeye strips smothered is a very tasty cream gravy. The portion size was plenty to share and from what we saw, portions were on the plentiful size. We topped that off with an order of cheesecake chimichangas which disappeared quickly! They have a full bar and live music at different times of the week as well as a Build your own Dam burger bar. Sorry I didn't get a picture of the food but that was only because it didn't stay on the plate very long. read more

Came here for dinner the other night while staying in Canyon Lake based on the Yelp reviews. I decided to try the Tips & Mash. It was decent but just average in my opinion. The tenderloin steak was seasoned well & moderately tender. It was also perfectly cooked medium well. The mashed potatoes were a bit watery in my opinion but tasted "ok", they almost reminded me of instant mashed potatoes that come in a box. The gravy was decent as well. All in all, decent meal but can't say I'd return for just an "average" meal. read more

Dam Red Barn - Tips and Mash - Bars Near Me - Canyon Lake, Texas

Wow! The new kitchen is FANTASTIC!!!!! We had awesome service, too! Me: Marinated grilled chicken breast with veggies (squash and zucchini) and add a side salad for 2 bucks. I opted for a Caesar no crutons. I am amazed at how tender and juicy my chicken was. Salad was a generous portion and delish. Veggies were cooked nicely and super yum. I ended up clearing my plate (not normal). Healthy and yummy. YES!!! Terry: Cheeseburger with jalapenos and fries. He scarfed it down in just a couple minutes! I might have stolen a fry or two (don't tell the keto overlords), and I might have drooled on myself at some point in the meal. Yes we will be back! Loved it! read more

We have been semi-regulars for a couple years, with two of our biggest deterrents being lack of a kitchen and not being open early enough on Sunday's to watch football. At the first of the year the kitchen opened and the food is excellent. I love the beef tips and mashed potatoes, as well as the chicken fried ribeye and a big juicy burger. Yuengling on tap is the icing on the cake. The staff are always friendly and they are definitely one of the main reasons we keep coming back. Best food, staff and value of any bar in the Canyon Lake area. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is 5 star pet friendly along with help being super on top of their game.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They try hard to please. Food was great but one meal was super neat was the Dog Dinner. Bacon hamburger patty and a shop of whip cream with 2 dog biscuits as the desert My Lily just tore that up. Ruined her for life. The ribeye chicken fried was perfect My wife had her favorite BLT which had thick cooked bacon she fell in love with. Everyone was extremely happy on drive home. read more

terrible!!!! the property owner was super rude and threatened to tow my car because he didn't like the way i pulled in. the entrance is at an angle, and my car is 3 inches off the ground so it got stuck on the slope and i needed to push the gas to get over, which he considered "aggressive" he was threatening, and called me a smart@ss for explaining why i needed to get over the slope and that i intended to go get lunch there. the property owner told me to go to the restaurant and he wouldnt tow me, but he just wanted money. says a lot about him. he's the bigger white dude in the white pickup truck btw. basically don't give this guy your business and be treated better literally anywhere else. read more
