The stage is out back, and check-in was easy at the bar for wristbands. There's a full bar inside and plenty of outdoor seating, plus a pizza food truck if you want a bite without leaving. Staff were friendly, and the atmosphere made it easy to relax and enjoy the music. Definitely a spot I'd come back to on my own if the lineup looked good.

Instead of basic customer service, I was met with attitude, irritation, and eventually being called "bro" and spoken to disrespectfully in front of other people. I work in service myself, so I'm usually very understanding, but this experience completely killed the vibe of the night. If you're going to charge upscale lounge prices, the staff should know how to treat customers professionally instead of acting annoyed that someone wants their order made correctly.

I went last night and stood at the bar for several minutes without being acknowledged by the two female bartenders on that night. They were talking to one another.. This is not the first time.

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!

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.

Great decor, wonderfully curated holiday cocktails and mocktails, beers, spirits, and more. Super service. This is a place where there's no way you could ever feel sad or down and out because it's just pumpkin' with happy holiday vibes.

The coffee was good, nothing crazy, service was really nice though. They have food as well but I did not try it. Be mindful with parking since it was full so you might spend some time waiting to park, but other than that, perfect spot to relax and have some coffee, cocktails, food, or all.
